Corn traders who look at the in
creased offerings Of Argentine grain
and compare the prices with those Of
the American articles are very bear
ish. They can see nothing but lower
prices, as they believe that increased
offerings from the southern hemisphere
will be factor from now on and that
there is to be more of that corn used in
the west than the trade in general
dream of.
Those who are builish on corn admit
that there is little prospect at present
for material concentration in May hold
ings, but they believe that the supply
and demand will be such that the price
should rule high. The trade here has
bulled corn and made an advance of
SIC since Feb. 25, but it has all dis
appeared, the price Wednesday being
down to 66&c for May. In other words,
it took three weeks to get the price
up and two to make break OF S%c
The best men in the trade say they
never were more mixed on the corn
situation than at present. Patten Is
bearish and most Of the local traders
are. What puzzles the trade Is where
the corn goes to on the declines
Thursday trade for horses at Chi
cago was quite active and offerings
that have showed this week are making
good clearance at steady to strong
prices as compared with a week ago.
Retail trade is helping market great
ly, this demand showing much i'm
provement in the last few weeks.
Along with the good locad demand,
much competition has come from ship
pers, who have taken great many
horses this week so far Wednesday
there were 966 taken on that account.
Thursday they were good buyers and
1t Is thought that offerings would be
we'll cleared up this week, as they were
last week. Quite a number of good
quality horses have been arriving re-
Gently from far western points. Many
of these are billed right through to
eastern centers, where demand is quite
urgent at present for equine stock.
Arrivals for the first four days this
week total about $500 head, against
3,059 a week ago and 2,771 for cor
responding period two years ago.
