BOSTON MINING STOCKS, Nov. 4.-closing
The JOHN MILLER co,

The wheat market showed signs of weakness
again today and the close for December is
sc lower; for cash wheat Nc lower, and the
net loss in price of cash wheat for the week
is 4c per bu. This is attributed very largely
to the inability of shippers and millers to get
for eastern shipment. Chicago stocks have
increased 100000 bu this week. local mills
week and still paying premiums for cars
that can be loaded for eastern shipment. Aside
from this fact the cash situation seems strong
and with good export demand, which, according
to reports from New York and Chicago, will
become apparent as soon as cars can be OBJ
tanned for shipment, we are not inclined to look
for much decline in prices There has been
considerable speculative selling during the past
three or four days and wea kholders are evil
IDENTIFY selling out, but reports would indicate
that thereara several large lines OF wheat held
at Chicago which are still intact. Advices would
indfcatethat shipments from the country will
be more liberal during the coming week, and
we expect to see cash wheat sell closer to the
December option.
Elevator companies have been unwilling to
buy at present premiums, but at 1c over De-
cember they Will undoubtedly take their share.
Local receipts today were Alb cars against

Minneapolis Chamber Of Commerce, Nov. A.
Dullness ruled in wheat today, with the session
marked by occasional spurts of pit activity fol-
lowed by lapses again into dullness. Prices
1t looked like market with liquidation on
from the smaller traders, and, while there was
no heavy selling and the big houses appeared
either to have sold out or to be standing on
their wheat, every few minutes brought a little
lot from disgusted bull. There was a
great scarcity of news of the important kind.
Some bull encouragement was drawn from the
very light increase here, which,, estimated as
low 100000 bu for the week, fell even
lower the quantity going up by only 66,474 bu,
making the total 4,693,2 ,2T4. For one day since
the compilation the increase Is % 900 bu. The
movement is still very light here, but it runs
over at other markets. Minneapolis had 413
cars against 484, Duluth 210 against 1870 and
= Chicago IT'S against AZ. St. Louis received
$1,000 bu against 10000 and Kansas City
$4,000 against 81. Winnipeg got only 2S4

wheat-1t was a regular Saturday market all
around with the bulk of the trading coming
under the general head Of evening up. Liver
pool was lower at the close and all markets
responded with decline about equal to the
British market At the bottom there was quite
large amount Of buying and the market re-
gained a portion Of it's loss. The news Of the
day was not decisive, and the volume of trade
was small. There is some talk of liquidation
in December, but it seems to be exceedingly i'm
probablethat there should be any liquidation
80 early as this, and still more improbable that
the supporting interests would give out any
such line of talk. There are many small lots
of long wheat in the market, but it is noted
that when these are shaken out they 80 into
strong hands. We feel friendly to the long
side, particularly weak spots.
Corn-The prices range today has been mar
row and hactionally lower. In the final hour
Of trading, there was seen good buying and the
down turn was checked. We feel that corn may
be bought on reactions. -.
Oats-The market sagged and acted dull and
l1ifeless thruout the session: Late. in the ses-
sion there was some renewed talk Of export busi-
ness, which lent some strength to the close.
Provisions-Like the grain markets, provisions
were. dull and with slightly lower trend. In
