NEW YORK. Nov. 16.-Strength developed in

The subsequent rally eliminated this weakness

(Albert r. Thompson & Co.. Indlanapolis.]
CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-THE wheat feature to-day
was the settlement of large line of Decem-
Der shorts at st. Louis. resulting in a decline
in the st. Louis December of 1%c and in yield
ing in this and all other wheat markets. Early
prices higher in very small way. The
news situation rather against the price
The weather continues favorable for movement
Cables a little lower and following the
advance here Saturday. The cash situation
reported very quiet. Seaboard reported ex-
port demand. Corn was weak with general in
clination to sell the futures and with prices
about nc lower. The selling was led by the
professionals who have been bearish and who
apparently this morning considered the pre-
diction OF n cold wave new selling reason
Cash corn was steady to nc lower Shippers
did nothing, although bids were better But the
rates put business out of line. There was
not much to the oats market. but prices de-
clined some There was professional selling and
oats felt the weakness OF corn. Futures had a
decline OF &c and did not react appreciably.
Hogs were Sc higher. There were $4,000 here.
and at Western points there were S. 900 against
"a. 00o last year. Exports of lard were con-
siderably in excess CT last year. There was a
Arm provision opening. but there appeared some
selling of ribs that was apparently for packers
and there was very slow demand.
