CHICAGO, Dec. 1-Wheat-Desptt
the liberal deliveries on December
contracts, wheat market prices ad-
close was at gains of 11 to Ia
cents. Deliveries have passed into
strong hands and some wheat Is ex-
pected to move out promptly Export
ers took to 100000 bushels delivered
in Kansas City. While the bulk OF st.
Louis deliveries were stopped by the
mfllers, the seaboard reported sale
OF 100000 bushels and st. Louis
claimed fairly liberal flour sales
| abroad. Exporters were buying In
most all outside markets and In Win
nipeg. A recession from the high
point Of the day was due to selling
by local longs on renewed rumors OF
peace negotiations. Demand for
good quality wheat is bull factor
that cannot be disregarded.
Corn-A new high price on the corn
heavy, but failed to depress the mar
reaction of n cents was registered.
The close was, however. at net
gain of 11s cents. The placing OF an
embargo by railroads entering Baltt
more on corn had some effect. Local
receipts Of 1877 cars we're taken at q
show some increase with the advent
of fair and colder weather.
Oats-Oats were sharply higher
with other grains. with large cash de-
mands. Although there was scattered
realizing on the bulge, good part OF
! the advance was held at the close.
Cash houses sold some December,
while commission houses we're good
buyers Of the May Deliveries on De-
cember contract In Chicago were
crop resulted in heavy sales and a
ket Inis Is taken as an indication
| Of strong cash demands sufficient to
| absorb whatever supplies are avail
able. Country offerings were smaller
and the local receipts for the day
were under 100 cars. Export demands
were good, export sales being report
ed of 100000 bushels.
/ Provisions-Provision were active
and stronger. The anticipation of q
/ liberal decrease IN contract products.
com bined with rumors OF further
purchase Of lard will be made by the
Belgian relief committee, helped the
advance. Some selling of lard by
packers and pressure by local longs,
but most OF the selling was in the ma
ture Of realizing sales.

and 21s above the opening, to 107
and 1osm. The opening was down "
and " below yesterdays close. There
was evidence that the Canadian
wheat seizure was just beginning to
/ show its effect. for the nervousness

ample deliveries on December con-
tracts. Offerings were small and
cables weak.
i Corn developed strength on good
buying. The opening was up Is and

advances over the opening OF 1ss
