Chicago Grain. Chicago, Nov. 5. Reports that the crop movement from first hands in the northwest showed a notable falling fall-ing off tended, to rally the wheat market mar-ket today after an early decline. Temporary Tem-porary weakness at the start was due largely to Liverpool assertions that arrangements for all winter exports from Russia had been effected by the completion of a railroad to a new port called Ekaterlna. A (feature of the market was the strength of the December option, which went to a premium over May. After opening 1-8(9)1-4 to l-25-8c lower, with De-comber De-comber May both at $1.05 to 1.05 1-4, prices eased off a trifle more and and then rose to well above yesterday's yester-day's close. Export business lifted corn. Prospects Pros-pects for unsettled weather counted alBo against tho bears. Opening prices, which ranged from l-8c oft to l-4c up, were followed by a moderate general advance. , Oats hardened with corn. There was no pressure to sell.
