Late Market Quotations

an early break in wheat there was
large and steady stream of profit TAX
ing by shorts. This short covering and
a moderate amount of buying by COM
mission houses on resting orders, raj
lied the market from the early break.
Heavy clearances and unfavoraDle
crop news from the soft winter wheat
states helped the advance. The mar
ket did not show a very firm under
tone, and prices averaged we'll under
last nights closing figures. Weather
conditions in the northwest on both
sides Of the line indicated further de-
lay in spring. work and the prospects
for seeding of large crop In that ter
ritory are not encouraging. Austral-
ian and Argentine shipments were
about as expected, and this with a re-
duction in ocean freights, had. a bear
ish effect on Liverpool.
Corn-Liquidation continued and
early prices were sharply lower on a
break of about IL cents from last
nights close, there were resting orders
and profit taking by shorts which caus-
ed a rally. Belated longs were the
best sellers on the reaction and fresh
investment buying seems very limit
ed. Cash demand is slow and not
enough business Is being done to
create permanent bullish situation.
Oats-Oats showed a firmer tone
than other grains today largely helped
by sympathy with Winnipeg, which
was strong on buying, credited to the
government account. If the prospects
OF the new crop progresses satisfac-
tory there will probably be enough
pressure from cash houses to prevent
any sustained advance.
