| CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-The opening strength in
| the wheat market due to an advance OF
Id in the price of wheat at Liverpool which
was said 10 have been caused by continued
drought in India and Australia and by ex-
cessive rains in Argentina. The market was
subjected to heavy selling pressure from sew
eral of the leading longs and these sales soo1
started prices downward. Throughout the re-
mainder of the day the tendency was toward
a lower level.
Declines of the price of cash wheat at out
side markets EXCEPT those in the southwest
had a depressing effect options en- the local
market The unsettled condition of the fnan-
cial world, however. was the chief factor. The
market closed weak. December opened 1h9
2ssc higher at s1.ooG1 Of. sold off to ssHc and
closed at 99hc May sold between 81 0691 0IZ
closed at $1.06h.
The corn market strong early In the day
chiefly because of the advance in wheat The
break in wheat caused considerable selling in
corn but prices showed only a moderate de-
cline.
Shorts were fairly active buyers late in the
day which caused firm close. December
opened 1h6D%c higher at 57hd57&c, sold off to
SIC and closed at 57&c. Local receipts were
277
Oats were quite strong at the start in sympa-
thy with the advance in wheat and corn The
break in wheat was the chief factor. Decem-
ber opened A@izc higher at 60%@5o%c, sold up
to 51Mc and then declined to- 5oasc The close
at 501ac
Provisions were strong at the opening, owing
to liberal purchases by local packers which
were based on a smaller run of live hogs and
the strength of grain. The market weakened
later on profit taking. At the close January
pork was off SC. Lard was down 25ac and ribs
