THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY N THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. A Spirit of Radical Weakness in December Wheat. INACTIVITY IN THE CORN PIT. L] Provisions Open With a Strong Un- derlying Feeling—A Fair Busis ness in Cattle—An Upturn in Hogs—Quotatidos, CRICAGO PRODUOK MARKETS, Cuircao, Nov. 18, Tue Bres.]—Decemb radical weakness to-day and a difference of fully 1 cent. The bull was set rolling by the selling out of o good-sized line of December by a party who has been suspected of har- boring a design to run the deal in that future, and his seling caused general liquidation. A greawdeal of December was changed over iuto May and trades in near- by deliveries are in process of being cleaned up. The open interest in December s still very large, however, and there will be plenty of action yet beforo the month ex- pires. Apprehensionsof a December squecze, never really justifiable, are becoming less every day, and the “tailers” are letting go their holdings. To such an extent is the uneasiness on that score passing away that predictions are now freely made that May will presentiy command its natural pre- mium of 53@6e over December, December opened at $2%c and ranged down 0 81i5c, then reacted to 819c and fell back to Slc, when the visible supply totals were posted, but recovered to 815{c, closing at 81}c. May started in av 85%c, worked off to 84’¢c and back to &53e, ciosing at S5e. Liquidation in December was the main feature of the market for the first couple of hours, After- wards there was general * firmoess at some recovery from the inside figures. Opera- tions in futures were fully up to an average and at times considerable excitement was manifested. Strong cables contributed to the later firmness, ‘The corn market was inactive, and, not- withstanding the wet weather, near futur and cash corn were wenl. Increasing vy ccipts was the depressing feature and senti- ment was governed by possibilities in this direction should the cold weather—which may reasonably be looked for shortly—suc- ceed the present humidity. Ihe receipts here to-day were 357, agmnst 344 expected. A aecrease of 815,000 bushels in the visible supply had & steadying influence aud the smull stocks here likewise helped to vrevent any raiding of the market for near deliveries. The Liverpool market was quoted us teudiog down for American corn, but Lendon re- ported firmness and a good demand for both spotand cargoes on passage. November corn was fairly steady, opening at 81%c, selling at 32)¢c, advanced to 325c, declined 10 B1e and closed at #3%ec. December opening at 813/@81%c and declining to 8115c iv closed at B1igc and -3 and May ut 3% @33igc, or trom e to e lower than on Suturday. [n tho oats market there was really little or no apparent reason for strength, with the sveakness 1n other cereals, liberal posted re- ceipts, small withdrawals, and expected hoavy arrifils for to-morrow, es exhibited an advance of e, which was, not wholly tamed. The upturn “was, due ghiefly to Hutchinson’s purchases of ‘about half a million bushels of May at 223{@23}gc, though he was later credited with uunx o seller. December was in fair favor, selling up to 2014@?20%¢, while November was nominal at about that range. A decrease in the visible of nearly half a million exhibited no in- fluence on the course of values. For a few cars of No. 2 togo to store 20}{c was vaid, Provisions opened with a strong under- 1ying feeling. Trade appeared to be able to comniand & good support and sellers found ready buyers for their offerings. Hutchin- son sold some 15,000 barrels of January pork and more or less lard for the same month, but his action had npo special in- fluence, Hog receipts were a little under expectations, and with weather unfavorable for a repetition of last week’'s movement the friends of the product show an increase in numbers. The murket to-day was certainly full of encouragement for holders and man- agers. Prices in their fluctuations kept within small iimits, and at the close of bus- iness January and May pork and short ribs were 21¢c and January and May lard b higher than Saturday’s closings. Novemoer pori sold off 10¢, but November short ribs were unchauged, while lard for the same month advanced 10¢. CH1CAGO LIVE STOOK.

Business was fair and prices about steady on natives, with Texans selling @ shade stronger. The vens were full of cows and heifers of high and low degree, but owing to the strencth in Texans, native butchers' stock sold about the same as last week. On account of the weather and the sloppy con- dition of the yards business was light in the stocker and feeder line and prices under- went little or no change.

New York, Nov. 18.—|Special Telegram to Tug Ber.|—Stocks— Although the stock market opened fairly active and strong this morniug, it was 11 opposition to the spirit of traders expressed over Sunday, The bears contend, with some show of truth, thav there isno evidence of outside trade and that without it the bulls can not advance und hold prices. The most hopeful talk is in re- gard to Unlon Pacifio, which is said to be good for u bulge to 89, after the manrer of Louisville & Nashvilie. While the forencon gave more ovidence of strength than woak- ness, the list was very irregular, First prices showed wide chunges trom Saturday's’ figures, and while Louisvillo & Nashville was 5 per cent lower at 864, Rock Island was ub a like amount at 1003{, with other changes in proportion. St. Paul and Union Pacific were the prominently active stocks of the rogular hist and Cotton Oil among the trusts, but, while the last named was ex- tremely weak, the others yiolded only small fractions. Cotton Ol declined 13{ per cent to 28, but was afterward surpassed by Sugar on a smalior awount of business, with a drop of 2 per cent to 7I}§. Deuver, Texas & Fort Worth rose fractionally, und Short Ldne, after an advance of !¢ per cent, do- clined 14, Laver in, the hour Western Union, Outario Western and Sugar trust became more prominent in the dealings and the first named displayed marked weakness, losing about 1 percent. ‘I'he movemeuts in the rest of the Alst were very irregular, but generally ina downward dircotion, and at 11 o'clock the market was active and weak, generally at he lowest pricos reached, The hour to 12 o'clock carried Big Four up to 751, Rook Island ugain to 1005, and Northwestern i over the'close of last week to 8% Mis- souri Pacific and 5t. Paul each removed 3 afrom the 11 o'clock figures. Western Union returoed to 844 and Chicago Gas showed & w 1 per cent from Saturaay at b4l trusts did not rally up to noon. Stock opuralors were surprised by the temporary advance in money rates to 20 per ceat at one time to-day. This was & ceution signal to mauy bulls, and before the close there was talk of liquilation by some of the pools. TennessceCoal furnishied a surprise by spurt- ing up o 84 and dropping to 79 at the close on light busmess, Cotton Oil reained a point from the bottom to 20. Chicago Gas late in the day went up to 551, but again lost !§ before the close. After 12 o'clock Union Pacific wont to i1i{ and closed with a net gain of { at 70%;.
