On Buying Side.

CHICAGO, Nov. S.-wheat market
showed a much 1rmer undertone
with a lessen-d pressure. Strong
commission houses were fair buyers
at times, but the aggregate busi-
ness was not large, and prices f1uc-
tuated rapidly within a range Of
around 1la cents.
Lowest prices were made at the
opening. Good buying appeared on
the dips, while around 1.09k for
the May there was selling on rest
ing orders which checked the ad-
vance. Houses with Northwestern
connections took May early. and
the sAaboard bought December
Little was heard regarding export
demand, but the movement both

was firm. Milling call here was
rather slow. A New York mill
bought 10000 bushels spring wheat
at Minneapolis, which will be
shipped East via Lake. In the
Southwest mills are reducing out

ability to secure shipping orders
on flour already sold. Some rain
or snow fell over parts of the win

conditions except in the Dakota=.
