Chicago Grain Market.

CHICAGO, Oct. 16.-Wheat acted with some
bucyancy at the opening, under the influence
OF Liverpool cables, which came in unchanged
on the break of 1ac from top prices here yester-
day. December opened 1sc to sc advanced at
703k d7oazc. but could not get higher. When it
was found that the demand was only scat
tered one, selling became somewhat concen-
trated and a few prominent bulls began to let
go of their holdings. In the absence of any
important news and with no outside demand,
dullness set in, followed by liQuidations which
brought slump in December prices to 697sc.
Despite the fact that receipts were the smallest
for any corresponding day in the past ten
years and that northwestern receipts have not
improved to any extent there was practically
no rally. December closed weak, 3sGlSc de-
pressed at 69Ts@7Oc.
Corn was quiet and ductuated within range

to the scalping element December closed
rather weak. 1SQ1Ac down, at 565sc
Oats were again profoundly dull. December
closed steady. shade higher, at 351s@S5Ac.
Hog products ruled steady with higher ten
dencies, based on a strong hog market. There
a fair demand at times from shorts as
well as some demand for lard and ribs from
commission houses. January pork closed i71ac
