LOCAL WHOLESALE MARKET.
Fluctuations in prices this week
were only slight, drop in the prices
of lamb and chickens being the most
interesting to buyers. Prices of most
other commodities this morning were
substantially the same as they were
at the opening of the weeks market.
One attraction this morning was
the fairly plentiful supply of excel
lent quality tomatoes. Some OF the
supply had been gathered green and
ripened indoors, 1T was stated, and
dealers expect additional small ship
ments of the vegetable.
There was fairly plentiful supply
of green vegetables on hand this
morning and dealers quoted prices
they regarded as being reasonable.

ToDAY's CHICAGO PRICES.
CHICAGO, November 3.-Wheat
scored a material advance in price
today during the early dealing
Strength in the cotton market and in
stocks gave more confidence to VIII heat
bulls, and there were also indications
of belief on the part of many traders
that government help in lifting values
was nearer at hand. Buying. however
failed to develop any unusual volume
The opening, which ranged from u to
s. as. higher, with December 1.07A to
1.07E, and May Lips to 1.12as. was
follow by moderate further gains.
Assertions that the corn crop move
ment was likely to be delayed had
some bullish effect on corn and oats.
After opening Il to Is higher, De-
cember "a to TAX, the corn market
continued to ascend
Oats started h to &a1s higher, De-
cember 417s. Later the market show
ed an additional upturn.
Provisions, like hogs, were without
significant change.
