GRAINS AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Nov. 22.-Prospccts of all increased movement from rural sour ces tended today to weaken the corn market, and so likewise did liberal shipments from Argentine. Prices closed heavy, to 8 1-2 cents net low CT with December 127 to l27 Is and Jan. 12S 3-4 to 12S 7-S.
 Oats finished half to 1-Sc down and provisions varied from 30s decline to SIC advance.
 Oats decline ill sympathy with corn
 Ill provisions tho strength of the hog market operated at first as q stimulus to buying, but was moro than offset later by the down turn of cereals.
 Corn declined in value today owing to lack of support. Reports that grain had fallen to a material extent ill London as we'll as in Paris tended to make bulls here cautious. Opening quotations, which ranged from 1-Sc to l cent lower with December 129 to 129 IA and January 131 3-4 to 132, were followed by slight rally, and then a general sag.
 Oats wcro depressed by tho weak ness of corn. After opening unchang- cd to l-4c lower, with January 74 1-4C to A 3-Sc, the market underwent q moderate setback.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1918-11-23

wide advances were made in the first half of the session in cotton today but in the afternoon the market acted overbought and weekend realizing of profits by longs caused a rapid de- cline, the market closing at the bot tom. showing net declines of 30 to A points.
 The early buying resulted from the announcement in Washington by the war trade board that export restrict ions, so far as friendly countries were concerned, would be removed or greatly modified on December 2nd. This led to predictions of large pur- cbascs by exporters
 Mill takings for the week made a very unfavorable showing compared with other years, and this had some thing to do with the liquidation.
 Spot cotton stead wand unchanged. Sales on the spot 4S4; to arrive 5335. Low middling 26.00; middling 29.75 :; good middling 30.13. Receipts 5,47i i; stock 3S9, 9,426.
 More confident buying came from the long side and the market firmcd up to a net advance of l6 to 55 points in the trading up to o'clock.
 Cotton closed steady at net de- cline of 90 to A points.
