THE CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO, Nov. 3-Belief on the part
of pit traders that considerable wheat
could be dislodged through stop-loss
orders led to a raid on prices today.
The move was successful in causing
lower quotations, but not a great deal
of selling by owners ensued.
Hessian fly in Missouri and Illirois
caused some reaction, but reports tend
ing to show that the winter wheat
acreage is the largest ever sown in
duced fresh weakness. The close was
heavy, with December Pops net loves
at Sly.
One reason was expectation of small
er shipments from Russia, India and
the Argentine. On the other hand. the
crop outlook in Argentina continued
favorable and the Buenos Ayres mar
ket was weak. Prices here opened a
shade lower to Y TO g higher. The
start for December was at S9k@89%. a
sixteenth off TO the same amount up.
A descent to $685. followed
With the country selling only in a
sparing manner. corn was firm. De-
cember opened h@A to A@% higher.
at 47A to ass, and reacted to 47h9A.
There was some selling of corn by
provision dealers, but the market
sagged only a little, ever with wheat
weakening badly. The close was easy
at 46A for December, a net decline Of
A@$.
Buying power did not display itself
much in the oats pit. December started
a shade down, at s1%6%, rallied a
trifie, and then declined to 3ih.
Higher prices for hogs made pro-
visions advance. First sales were 2h
to 10 up with the January option at
17.1219 to Ills for pork, 1890 for lard
and 9.12h for ribs.
