WHEAT CONTINUES
TO MAKE ADVANCE
Crop News From Argentina
Sends Prices Higher
PRIMARY RECEIPTS LESS
Unsettled Weather In Corn Belt Gives
Firm Tone to Market and Prices
Hold Up WeIi-Oats Close
Steady and Provisions Firm.

Chicago, November 24.-Profit-taking in
December offset to some extent the eff
feet Of unfavorable crop reports from Ar
gentina today and caused considerable
weakness at times. Final quotations were
1sQ1ac higher, compared with the previous
close. Corn and oats closed steady and
provisions firm.
Liquidation of holdings by a big long
was one of the features in the trading
in wheat, and the premium of December
over May was cut down and materially
reduced. A report that leading elevator
interest had purchased 100000 bushels of
Duluth wheat for delivery on December
was partly responsible for the heaviness
of the nearby option.
The wheat market at the start displayed
considerable frmness, owing to covering
by shorts. The covering was based on
wet weather reports from Argentina.
A rather weak tone then developed ow
ing to the proflt-taking in December, but
late in the session the market again be-
came firm because of renewed buying by
shorts, prompted by the smallness of pri-
mary receipts, the total movement being
100000 bushels less than for the corre-
spending day year ago. The December
range for the day was between 81 .0M and
1904. May sold between s1.o6B and
$1.06%Q1. 067s.
At the close December was 81 .0Sssq1 .0S%
and May 81. 06ss91 .0615-
Unsettled weather brought out moderate
covering by shorts in corn and resulted
in a firm tone the greater part of the
day. Cash houses reported that offerings
from the country were light and this fact
tended to strengthen the market
At the close prices were unchanged to q
shade higher.
Trading in oats was extremely quiet.
Prices kept within a &c range. The
close was steady, with December and May
precisely at the same point as on the
previous day. July was a shade higher.
Provisions made a substantial gain ow-
ing to a stampede among shorts, who
were influenced by continued light re-
ceipts of live hogs throughout the west
At the close prices were &c to 40c higher
The board of trade will be closed to-
morrow.

porting factor against the tone of de-
preston elsewhere visible In the market.
Its rise to only 1ss short of its highest
record price was unexplained by any news
bearing on the property. The buying OF
the stock was concentrated ana said to
come from banking interests connected
with the company. The strong showing
made by the Southern Pacific In Its an
nual report made that stock in demand
and gave it a period of strength In the
market. Wabash preferred reacted sharp
ly from its advance Of yesterday owing
to the disbelief In the rumors of a mer-
ger with the Delaware and Lackawanna
and Western.
There was further engagement of gold
for shipment to South America and the
foreign exchange market maintained it's
strength in spite to the further decline
of discount rates in London and Berlin.
On this account reports Of the Intention
of the Bank Of England authority to re-
duce the official discount rate tomorrow
were received with some doubts. The
evening Thanksgiving holiday reduced
the volume of transactions to some ex-
tent. The same influence prompted ac-
tivity of shorts which was responsible
for the late rally In prices.

New York, November 2i.-The cotton

again today with prices working lower as
a result of pre-holday liquidation and
more aggressive bear pressure, the close
being barely steady at a net loss of 2@10

ure of these estimates including one from
a prominent southern paper which placed
the yield at 10.157,000 bales exclusive of
linters and repacks to stimulate fresh
buying seemed to encourage the bears
to greater aggressiveness than they had
shown recently, and prices sold off to a
net loss of 10416 points. Shortly after
the call around 14.3Sc for January and
1915 for May. it looked as though there
was much less long cotton coming out
on the market and a renewal of support
from some of the bull leaders caused a
rally to within 8 to points Of last nights

the belief that Liverpool will tomorrow
seize the opportunity offered by the clos

That this belief was also shared by the
bulls was shown by their selling out.
which added materially to the volume of
offerings. The continued light movement
and several extremely low crop esti-

had. but they caused shorts to take prof

something of reaction, which, however,
did not last At the lowest, prices were
