ToDAY's CHICAGO PRICES.
CHICAGO. November II Rainy
weather, which practically. dispelled
apprehension Of damage to the win
ter crop, had a bearish influence on
the wheat market today during the
early dealings. The fact that pri-
mary arrivals were totaling larger
than was the case a year ago tended
further to weaken values. Sellers,
however, were apparently disposed to
be cautious in view of comparative
strength shown by prices at Liver
pool and Winnipeg. The opening
z like advance, with December 1.13%
to l137s. and May LIP to 1.12h. was
followed by moderate setback all
around and then something of rally.
Corn and oats were relatively firm,
owing to absence of selling pressure.
After opening u to Man lower. De
cember 653s to 6s. the corn market
made slight general gains.
Oats started y higher, December
az. and later continued to gain.
Provisions were inclined to sag
with the hog market.
Wheat took a decided swing up
ward in price today. after leading
authority had estimated that winter
wheat acreage would show a reduc-
ton of 10 per cent. namely. 100000
acres. Bullish gossip as to probable
enlarged European demand for wheat
and rye had considerable effect also,
together with frost reports from Ar
gentina. The close was unsettled.
