At the close a few liquidating sales tie press .-h! the price a little, but distinctly minor character in business ut nil times. Throughout the entire half* holiday session then mms scarcely enough to fill fifteen minutes on ar. ordinary dry. December wheat opened at C2& df.cllned to 5214. closing at 5?!4 a net loan of Ua?i of a cent for the day. Cash wheat was a trifle easier. Receipts at principal We: cm points, 7SS.7D0 bushels; shipments, o03.- 792 bushels; receipts ot Eastern points, 195.462 bushels; shipments, 117,618 bushels. Corn.—Tho prospect of rains through out the West, with a higher movement In consequence, firmed up the December option In corn today, the more distant deliveries not taking part in tho improve, ment. It was almost a stagnant trade, bdwever, operators very generally aban- doning the pit and leaving tho market to Its own devices. May opened from 49“4 to 49\a v ; t sold to -l^s, cloning at 49 7 :. a shade higher than yesterday. Cash corn nfaa % a cent per bushel higher. Oats.—There was some selling of long oats today, but not enough to be called picjni/icant. It was evidently for tho vator interests. There was nothing done for the syndicates ns far as could be seen. I’rk’es were easier at the close, than at any other time during the day. May closed H of a cent under yesterday. Cash oats were firm, butu nchanged. Provisions.—At the opening and for a short time afterward there wbm a long range of prices and an easy feeling to product, some of yesterday's depression being carried, a cheaper hog market also receiving consideration. No pressure to sell made Itself prominent and "shorta” did a little covering, which gradually re vived the tone and caused a rally. The close was 7^» cents higher than yesterday for January pork, 2% cents higher for January lard and 21405 cents higher for January ribs. FUTURE QUOTATIONS.
