Although sentiment in wheat inclined to
the bear side prices responded readily to any
material demand. The market opened weak,
with prices sc higher To 80 lower. There was
a fair rally in the first half hour, due to buying
based on the theory that the selling of the pre-
ylous day had been overdone Later prices
slumped sharply following severe break in
corn. On the final bulge July advanced from
$1.O41s to Sl.05la and September from Sl.O Is
to $102I.. The market closed strong at the
highest point of the day.
Liquidation of large holdings of corn was
again in evidence and prices slumped still fur
ther, but all the loss regained late in the
day owing to covering of enormous lines by lead
ing shorts. Prices of cash corn declined ia
llac, and much of the grain found reluctant
buyers. Final figures of May were l4c higher at

Trading in oats was active and prices were
governed mainly by the course of corn The
May delivery ranged between 405sc and
