Side; Corn and Oats Fol
low Example of Wheat.

Chicago. III Nov. 1O.-After a wavering
start. the wheat market today made a
decided upward jump. Unexpectedly lower
quotations from Liverpool with reports or
scattered showers in Argentina gave a tenn
pOrary advantage to the bears but on the
declines a number Of big houses turned TO
the bull side. Influenced by q sharp upturn
in values at Rosario and by advances in the
New York stock market
Bears were Handicapped by further reduc-
tions in estimates Of the Argentina export

less was weak al $1.SSik to S1-SS7a for De
cember and 81 g = for May with the market

compared with Thursdays finish
Corn weakened with wheat and later raj
lied when wheat developed strength EX-
port demand and predictions OF colder
weather tended 20 help the advance After

oUent upturn went TO the highest level since
1892
Bullish Argentina advices gave a lift to
corn as we'll as TO wheat The close was IN
settled at gains OF sc TO 12sc net
oats were governed chiefly by the &C
ton OF corn Offerings were well absorbed
Higher prices for lard at Liverpool gave
strength 10 the entire provision list here
Trade however was mainly in small lots.

Most of the cotton production OF the
Laguna district in Mexico is shipped to
this country and to England by way OF
TampicO and Neracruz. FL PasO is
much nearer the cotton fields OF the
district. and reduced transportation
charges to this city would enable

and a section of the mainland of Asia
must come under a common sovereignty.
