failed to reveal his whereabouts. Con-
apprehension is felt concern

was considered that the decline was
due to there being too much company
on the bull side of late and that in case
of any further advance there might
not be as easy a market for the lead

Quoted his business by means of a

Grain Opinions.

Logan e. Bryan: We can but feel
that a return to normal weather con-
ditions will give big movement of corn
and lower prices early in December.
Ware ? Leland: Suggest purchases
of May wheat on setbacks. We see
nothing to fear on the long side Of
corn and strongly urge purchases now
ard on scale down If necessary.
Buy oats on the little dips.
Clement Curtis: Profit taking in
wheat has brought about the expected
reaction and we look for recovery.
Unreasonable weather again prevails
over the corn belt retarding curing and
this market should work higher.

tive purchases for quick turns
