ports from the northwest that winds were de.
stroylng the previous good prospects for spring
wheat, created bullish sentiment which re-
fused to be downed by reported troubles of
western banks. There was rustling and hust-
ling among corn shorts today. The scramble
did not start for about is minutes after the
opening, but when it did begin there was lonf
continuance Oft. Prices later receded &c a

higher than yesterday. There was fair traSe
in oats and strong feelings due TO sympathy
with wheat and corn to moderate offerings and
to fair purchases of near futures were ost at
tractive and prices advanced a4@%c closed
steady at about the top. Provision market firm
