strength in Liverpool yesterday, the
change this morning in foreign centres
produced prompt upset here. Big
shipments expected from Black Sea
ports formed the depressing influence
in Europe. Opening prices in Chicago
were A@as to q, lower. and selling
was genera, especially small lots
through commission houses. December
started at 100is to 100h, a decline of "
as to hs@&. touched 100G100k and re-
acted to 100A
Corn was weak on the fine weather
and because of receivers reports that
big receipts were coming. December
opened " to II off. at 51A to 52M, and
hung near to the lower level.
Oats suffered with corn. December
began with a loss of Il at S5, and fell
to 34%.
Hog products dropped because OF
scanty demand. First sales were un-
changed to IN lower, with the Jan
uary option at 1890 for pork, 1910 for
lard and go for ribs.

market opened steady at an advance
of 30 points on September and 3@5
points on later positions on a renewal OF
yesterdays buying movement. and con-
tinued reports of better spot demand.

points of yesterdays closing price un-
der realizing while later months also
eased off to about the closing figures of
yesterday under moderate offerings,
Business was very quiet and the mar
ket showed little feature during the
middle OF the morning.
Notwithstanding the favorable wealth
err reports, many private advices were
received during the morning of crop
deterioration, and as the governments

up to net advance of 5913 points on
covering by early sellers, little trade
buying and some support from the
Southern bull leaders.
