were buyers on this advance. which
carried May contracts up to 11.95, July

to be some further scattering liquida-
tion. and the market was rather ir-
regular during the middle of the morn
ing. Houses with Liverpool connec-
tions were moderate sellers of January

the English straddle selling. New Or
leans firmed up and prices here ad-
vanced on renewal of Wall street
buying and IA continued demand from
spot houses for old crop months. One
of the private cables received from
Liverpool reported that the floating
supply of contracts there was becoming
scarce, with demand increasing, and ac-
tive months here sold II to IA points
net higher around midday. with May

Corn Develops Strength.

Corn developed strength owing to the
absence of any decided pressure to sell.
At first. however. the market tended
to ease off with wheat. After opening
"a to l4a"s lower. prices rose to well
above yesterdays finish.
Oats continued to show independent
firmness. The reason was the outlook
for heavy shipments soon from Chi
cago.
Moderate buying of lard gave lift
to the provision market as whole.
The demand for lard appeared to be of
a speculative character.
Subsequently Hessian fly reports from
northern Kansas led to an advance in
wheat prices. There We're also many
crop damage complaints from Ohio and
other winter wheat states, including
Nebraska. The close was steady, Il
to Is net higher. with May at 1.11$s
and July at 1.09 asa10912.
