The shorts became nervous because of
their inability to force out stocks held

checked during the afternoon by the in
production In the Senate of the resolu-

Corn-The confidence shown in the
corn market yesterday was absent to-
day a ST Louis operator of consid-
cradle prominence. who has recently
been doing some. heavy buying, was not
in the market to any extent to-day. A
big short" line was covered yesterday,
thus removing the support which would
naturally come from it. Under these
circumstances little life and not much
strength was apparent.
Oats-Most Of the trading in May
oats during the morning was at Tx q

close. Weakness was partly due to
heavy arrivals. but the action OF wheat
and corn was OF more Importance as an
influence. Prices declined further when
the other markets collapsed

product prices was quotable, but the
trade was certainly devoid Of Interest
