GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Dec. 1.—The deliveries of
wheat on December contracts, contrary
to expectations, were light today, and
the crowd completed tho world's visible
supply by reporting a decrease In stocks
"in and afloat for Europe" of 2,008,000
guhheis. Liverpool and London cables
were strong and higher. That the prices
did not work their way through cells
was a disappointment to the bulls, and
eft4r a reasonable period they were dis
posing of their holdings wit has little
appearanco of display as posslbel. There
esmo an easier offering under tho pres
sure of selling, bu tbeforo the close values
stiffened up a trifle and closed a fraction
under the top. May wheat opened from
6074 to 6074, declined to 607ia74. rallied to
find closed at 6074-74a14 of a cent higher
than yesterday. Cash wheat waa firm and
unchanged.
Corn.—Local scalpers and room Opera
tors had the corn pretty much to them
selves today. Sympathy with the finer
grain, firm cables, light deliveries on Pe-
comber contracts and soft weather com
bined to start prices firm, but the trade
soon dwindled away until practically no
no business was doing. May corn opened
from 49 to 1914, sold Between 49 and 1974,
closing at 197ia?4—74 of » cent higher
than yesterday. Cash corn was weak
ad 7ia74 a cent lower than yesterday.
Oats.—Prices In oats moved about 74 ot
a cent during the entiresessto n. It Is
unnecessary, therefore, to refer to tho
trade, because there was practically
nothing done. A steady feeling ruled, the
generally firm tone elsewhere extending
to oats. May closed unchanged from yes
terday. Cash oats were a shade easier.
Provisions.—A little activity was noted
in product at tho Immediate start and
also at the end of theses sion. but the
Intervening time was dull and monoto
nous. The strength usually came from
the yards, where hogs were firm and In
light supply. Later an easy feeling ob
tained. but a rally duripg the closing
moments was due to some covering by
shorts. The close was 774 cents higher
than yesterday fqr January pork, 5 cents
higher for January lard and 274a5 cents
higher for January ribs.
