Chicngo 0rnin and Provisions.

CHICAGO. Nov 2o.-The big decrease in the contract stock of wheat at Duluth with the continued small receipts in the Northwest gave shorts another scare today and in their anxiety to cover they caused sharp advance fin prices, December closing 9sc higher December corn was up lhgl%, oats were C hc higher while January provisions closed from 21sc low CT to 547lzc higher.
 The demand for December wheat from short interests was extremely urgent to the critical situation in the Northwest and with but small offerings the market ruled strong throughout the entire day. The sentiment was bullish from the start, higher cables and small re- ceipts in the Northwest being incentives that brought out a good demand with the opening sales December was a shade lower to a shade higher at 79a79h. but with active buying by shorts and local traders the price advanced rapidly On the advance there was selling to secure the profits and some sales for short account, which resulted In the market easing of slightly at times, although the tendency was constantly, toward higher level The report of a big decrease in the stock at Du- luth for the week was an added cause of anx- iety 70 the shorts. who are beginning to fear they will experience considerable difficulty in securing wheat to apply on December con tracts A private estate showing a greatly re- duced crop in the Northwest crop was also q bull factor The strength in December helped Nav but that month did not show as much advance as the nearby delivery. After selling m to g0h December closed 1 %c higher at equal to Js2. 200 bushels. Worlds exports for the week according to Bradstreets. were D. 974, GOO bushels, the smallest weeks total for two months. Primary receipts were l'- o45, 800, against LIE, 100 year ago. Min neapoiis. Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of 7s3 cars, against s6S cars last week and o04 a year ago, ,,, - ,,, strong owing to a scarcity of offerings while al the same time there was good demand from, shorts throughout the day. Strength in wheat small receipts and an improvement in the cash demand were factors In creating a . situatfon December ranged between 4aT and 434sa43sa. and closed ihQl %c higher at 4s&G43&. Local receipts were los cars, with five of contract. L
