CnIoAGo GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices on Board Of Trade.

CHICAGO, Nov. 19.--Sharp falling off in
receipts at western primary points helped
to rally wheat today from a setback due
was a steady close. Corn lost sqhc to
hd%c net and oats l-l6c. Provisions nm
ished at a range varying from SOC down
to a rise OF lJszc. .Ft
Best prices for wheat today were
reached in the last hour, when the mar
let went NC above last night. largely be-
cause of attention to statements showing
that western primary arrivals for the
seven days just ended were 100000 bu.
less than for the preceding seven days.
At the same time the fact was pointed
out that export cleRrances gave no sign
of any letup. On the other hand. there
we're continued complaints that business
with Europe was hampered by scarcity
Of vessels, owing TO the high rates OBJ
tainable on the other side. chiefly in the
service between Scandinavia and Ger
many.
Heaviness in the wheat market early
was accompanied by assertions that de-
mand at Liverpool had been noticeably
checked by yesterdays advance here, IL
was also said that fears of wet har-
vest in Argentina were discounted by
knowledge that the region where the bulk
OF the crop is raised was In excellent con-
Cold weather had the effect of increas-
ing rural offers of corn and of bringing
about a good deal OF selling pressure on
the December option. The May delivery
was bought by commission houses on rest
Prices for oats held comparatively
steady owing to the smalinees OF receipts.
Domestic shipping call improved.
For the most part provisions were
stronger as a result OF covering by shorts.
An exception was November lard. which
was apparently being unloaded by one OF
tbs big packers. -..
