there was "A scarcity OF offerings. which
caused Dec. to open &c &c higher at "5Hic

there was an inclination or the part OF
recent long liquidators to reinstate. The
scantiness of offerings pointed to n consid-
cradle shortage outstanding. and Dec. soon
advanced Ia 5IAsc. The bear crowd. while
not selling. was inclined TO antagonlze Inc

WHEAT AND CORN DECLINED
AT END OF SESSION.
Heavy Receipts and Weather Con

Alter an early rally. based On news In
d~icatiug an increasing export demand. the
local markets eased off because OF realiz-
ing. based on subsequent adv!oes showing
larger receipts and generally bearish condi-
lions. both I'm wheat and corn.
Early reports were that heavy buying or
corn in the Chicago market was supposed
10 he in response to an export demand.
Many Of the local short. covered early on
this news. but later, when i. was known
that receipts at primary points and In the
II. Louis markets were unusually large and
that conditions in the Northwest were IA
vorable to the selling side, there was cor
siderable liquidation. Trading was at no
time heavy. except for 4 few minutes after

Corn led the other markets downward.
There was not strength enough TO with.
stand the strain OF liquidation after the first
rush to cover and values went down the
scale. Weather conditions had much TO do
with the weakness of corn. An unofficial
report from Iowa said that the condition of
the crop in that state would average 40.
