dicted early, but eased off later on the
rain reports.
The western belt forecast for unsettled
weather with local showers or thunder
storms tonight or tomorrow. except in
west Texas did not seem to inspire much
selling. and trading was comparatively
quiet during the late afternoon. but
there were rumors of good showers in
central Texas. and while the trade was
evidently very uncertain to whether
sufficient rain had fallen to materially
help the crop outlook. prices gradually
eased off. with new crop months about
rs to 81 points net lower at midday. July
held little over last nights closing fig
ures. but August broke to a net loss of
about 10 points on the sympathy with
new crop weakness.

CHICAGO. july 6.-Violent breaks In
tire price of corn today followed the
night Cool weather and rain brought
about almost complete change OF feel
ing. In consequence oats, too wheat and
even provisions fell with corn.
Everybody was trying TO sell corn. and
there were practically no buyers in
sight. Accordingly. the market at the
opening dropped all the way from to
8 under latest previous quotations SO
unanimous was the reversal of outlook
by the trade that no sign of reaction an
peared. and the market hung sullenly
around the lower level reached a; the
outset. Soaking rains were reported from
Nebraska. Kansas. Iowa and Illinois. ac-
companied by a decided downward move
ment of the mercury.
In addition the Liverpool market
showed but little response to yester-
days big advance on this side of the
Atlantic. Moreover. leading authority
was quoted pronOuncing the condi-
tion of the crop excellent barring
only that moisture would be needed

started at 63s. TO 641a decline of pa
TO 3. and for a long time did not
rally more than sixteenth above
that range.
The oats market was exactly like
that for corn There was general
rush 20 sell. and no demand of any
consequence. News OF a proba BILE big
crop in Canada added TO the bearish
feeling in oats September opened u
10 u off at 45 to i5i2. and recovered
only TO 45M
Business in wheat was not large but
nearly all orders were to sell Sup
port was poor from the very outset
and did not improve even under the
stimulus of bearish reports from North
Dakota. The opening was has to
