CHICAGO. February 4.-Expectation Of
lighter world shipments gave the price
of wheat an upward slant today. For
warnings from Russian particular prom
ised to be small. Moreover, France was
reported to be inquiring sharply for red
winter grades at Liverpool. Pit shorts
who failed to cover last night were active
buyers here today. The opening was y.
to asaiac higher. May started at 9o1s to
0Gis, a gain of IL to a, and seemed in
clined to keep within that range.
Scattered commission demand proved
sufficient TO prevent bears from becoming
aggressive in corn. May opened un-
changed TO isc up, at o0iz to JOas and
steaded around the higher figures.
Pit spectators were on the buying side
of the oats. but trade was slow. May
started unchanged, at 33ls, touched 33i ga
:.;i,. and receded 10 s3a33la.
Hog products came on the market in
small lots only and price changes We're
narrow. First sales were &c lower to 2i.c
higher, with May options at 1925 for
pork. $50 to as for lard and $50 for
ibis.
