IIE OMATTA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1002. 8 COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL All Qrsint and Provision! Close Higher Aftr Active Day. WHEAT SALES VERY HEAVY AT FIRST Cora Eilrrmrlr Strona. hut Tradlns; la Oats and Provision U Light, illboath rrlcea Itlse Considerably. CHICAGO, Nov. 1. Grain markets were active today and higher prices ruled. De cember wheat closing "o higher. December corn 2c higher and oats 14c higher. Janu ary provisions cloKed 12Hc to liVc higher. There- waa great artlvlty In wheat at the opening and the volume of business was transacted during the first half hour of trading. Later In the day a quieter feel ing developed, but toward the close an other onslaught waa made on the market and the close was at the top for December, while May was only a shade under the best llgure of the day. The opening wa strong on unfavorable weather and higher cables together with decreased receipts, both local and at outside points. Commission houses were buyers early, while a leading long iwaa alno credited with taking on quite a line, both of December and May. Covering by shorta waa a feature throughout the esslon. December opened H&Sc higher at 72MW3o and held steady around 73c until near the close, when there waa an other advance, and final figures were at the top at H'ic, showing a gain of c. There was an Increase In visible of 1,993,000 bu.. compared with an Increase last year of 8,718.000 bu. World'a shipments for the week were 11,660,000 bu., against 8,872.000 a year ago.

Wet weather and un i fitness of the great bulk of new corn for shipment were the main factora. A strong 'export demand for old corn was also a strengthening Influence. Shorts were again much disturbed over the prospects of get ting the goods to fill their contracts for December delivery and free covering by shorts was a feature of the day. Thre was also a good demand. There was con siderable realising by longs, but offerings were enarerlv absorbed. December opened V higher at 6;U4&64Hc and held Arm throughout the day, the close being at the top notch at 65c, a gain of 2c over yester day s close, locai receipts were xrt mil, mlth fourteen of contract grade. Oats were strong, with other grain, but trading waa light. The close was strong, with December up 4c. after ranging from ante to 30c. Ijocal reeefbta were 343 cars. There waa little doing In provisions, the principal feature being realising by longs, outside shorta taking the offerings. Firm ness nrevalled throughout the day on decreased hog receipts, with higher prices at the yards and on strength In corn. The -lns was strong, with January pork 17Uo higher at S16.32S.

Nov. 17 The stock mar ket presented few If any marked char acteristics today. Although London prices showed Improvement, the opening here was decidedly Irregular. This was proba bly caused by the liquidation of those who withstood last week's depression, as well as by the profit taking of speculators who Dougnt during tnat same period, rneee uneven conditions gave way to a better feeling before the end of the first hour, when It became evident that certain vague rumors of "trouble" were unfounded. The feature of the early trading, as well as the entire day, was Manhattan, which waa xceptlonally strong, making a maximum and net gain of over 6 points on transac tions that more than exceeded one-nfth of the days total operations. The rise In this stock, which was bought openly in big blocks by brokers who usually rep resent Gould Interests, revived the old tory that Manhattan Is to be taken over i the New York Central on a guaranteed vldend. No confirmation of thie waa ob tainable, nor did any great amount of credence attach to It. The other tractions were fairly strong in sympathy. Metro politan on very light transactions gaining a point, with a fractional advance In Brooklyn Transit. Considerable attention was drawn to St. Paul by reason of Its rather Irregular movements and the stock closed with a slight loss. New York Cen tral, which made an early gain of 1 points, lost much of Its advance, and Bal timore it Ohio fell over a point from the top, In spite of Its goods showing In earn ings for the fiscal year. Other active rail way Issues that displayed heaviness In cluded the Pacific grnun. the nressure against Union Pacific at one time being very marked, in the special class, Colo rado Fuel, United States Steel. American Smelting, Sugar and a few others were teady, Htigar making a material net gain.

There were only a few cars of cornfed steers on sale, and, the same as usual, buy ers were cautious. The cornfed cattle that have been arriving so far, packers claim, do not kill out very well and the fact that they kill out unevenly makes buyers rather backward about taking bold ot tnem. rney claim they prefer the westerns to these short fed corn cattle. The prices that were paid today were tuny as gooa as moao in force at the close of last week and some sales looked a little higher The cow market was active and 10b 15c higher than at the close of last week. Buyers were all out early and the cattle changed bands freely. It was to be noticed. however, tnat tne improvement was much more nronounced on the grass cows and heifers than on the cornfeds. The same as was the case with steers, buyers were cautions about the short fed stuff and In many cases such kinds did not sell much better than last week, thougn some sales looked fully a dime higher. Bulls were perhaps a little easier to dispose of this morning, but the prices paid did not iook mucn or any nigner. Veal calves and stags sold fully steady. There was in active demand for the better grades of Blockers and feeders and the market could be quoted nxijiac nigner tnan last Friday, mere were not very many good cattle on hand, so that the few that did arrive sold to good advantage. The commoner grades also sold a little better than they did last week, but thev did not Improve as much as the better Receipts this morning Included very few good western beef Bteers. The demand was liberal ana tne marKet aavancerj tor any thing at all decent lo&15c. The commoner kinds also commanded stronger prices. De sirable grades of Blockers rtd feeders ad vanced lotu'lbc, witn otner Kinds strong. Cows also Improved 1015o over the prices paid late last week. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. He. Av. pr.

As Is usually the case under such circumstances, the market on all kinds eased off a little. Owing to the fact that many of the trains were late In arriving and to the fact that a large proportion of the receipts had to be sorted, it was late before much was done. The market on fat stuff could best be described by calling it slow and unevenly lower. Early In the morning a few fed sheep and lambs sold at right close to steady prices, but the bulk of the west erns sold a little lower than at the close of Inst week. The quality of the receipts was only fair, so that the decline was the most pronounced on the commoner grades. There were a good many feeders on sale, so that although the demand waa fairly liberal prices weakened a little. The best grades did not show much change, but the common stuff was extremely dull and lower.
