CHICAGO GRAIN AND PRoDu,

Chicago, Nov. s0.-SmaIl shipments from Tn S ss shs Sss arkst ot toaag Final quotations for May wheat were shade higher than, wednesday's close. May visions were q shade to 10c lower.
 The market was weak early in the day on selling of the December option ny longs largely due to more liberal receipts in the Northwest and to the assertion made by the Cincinnati trade journal that the winter wheat crop is in good condition and that there was on November 1st an exportaoie surplus of wheat 1 in 4 tais So country @ from the r, offerings were taken largely by elevator in interests. Later q prominent bull bought general demand which resulted in a com plete recovery of the early loss. The late demand was based almost entirely upon the week. the total movement being only 61s.O00 bushels against 2,32s,oo0 for the correspond firm. fhs May opened a shade lower to a shade higher at 7Sc to 7sMc
 Clearances of wheat and flour were equal 10 b54,30e bushels Exports for the week as shown by Bradstreets were equal to 4,- 200, 00o bushels. Primary receipts were same day last year. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago, reported receipts of 1,054 cars, against sss last week and TO one year sgo.
 LiQuidation of the December delivery had a weakening effect on the corn market in in the day because of small local receipts  prediction of a cold wave throughout the corn belt caused active selling about the middle of the day and brought about sharp decline in the December option, it being the opinion that with cold weather the crop movement will increase materially. The market closed weak. May corn opened Mc higher at 44c. sold off to 4shc and closed at 43Ac,
 Local receipts were 1Ol cars with F of contract grade
 Trading in the cats pit was quiet and the early market was steady. There was some selling in the December delivery. but offerings were well taken by cash houses. Nav oats opened a shade lower to a shade higher at s4Mc to s5c. sold off to SEA and closed at s4A s5c. Local receipts ls2 cars.
 Provisions were easier on scattered selling of pork and ribs. which were based upon a five cents decline in the price of live five cents at s14. 45 Lard was shade low- CT ct Ss.45. Ribs were down 5c at $7.70@ $T.73M.
 Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat 5s cars; corn 326 cars; oatss ss5 ears; hogs 21,0 900 head.

 About ,s00 bales of spots were sold here yesterday at god advances. Port receipts clearances show that 1t is mostly cotton brought into sight by consumers demand and consequently the movement loses much of it's effect on feeling.
 The demand for spots siackened in the at-- ternon and brokers report easier basis for good grades. Futures continued quiet around opening figures. A raid was attempted in New York around o'clock owing to tight money, IS per cent, but with spot middling at .3f or more here and March futures around II .05. there was little room for pro fesional depression News from the inte- .rior markets. particularly Texas continues larger than ia the big crop year The prin- cipal point of interest for speculation brought to light today Is that leadiHE trad CTS. whe so far have openly favored the to talk and action. to the bull side; there fore. should spot support continue and next weeks announcements encourage buiiish en- terDrise. there VIII be less opposition to an advance.
