CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, January 22.-Hot. dry

harvest and the crop movement, had a
bearish effect today on the price OF
wheat. World shipments. too, were larger
and there were reports of free offerings
from Australia. Initial transactions were
"A to AaAc lower. May started at 1.OO1s
to 1OO1s a loss Of Aaas, touched lOOaa

Lively selling on the part OF commits
sion houses eased off the market for
corn May opened 1sc down to like
amount higher, at 66ss to 66ss, and de-
clined to 66A.
Oats suffered some depression from nu-
merous resting orders to unload at any
advance. May started sixteenth off to
a shade advance at 49Aa49h to 497saJo,
and held around 49N.
A big run of hogs sent packers to the

lard, and $50 for ribs
CHICAGO, January 2-After some
further dip a stronger tone developed
