Late Market Quotations

taxing and uQu1daunH sales worked
| prices from two to three cents lower
and there appeared to be some change
in sentiment from over the holidays,
which may carry prices q little FUR.
Their downward before any perma-
nent Improvement IL seen. A fair run
OF wheat at the tables, some Of which
was intended to arrive Friday, brought
better price than the final prices
Friday relatively to the May delivery
and the discounts OF No. grades un-
der the No. grades were by no
means as great as last week. We
cannot feel that prices have yet seen
the low point on this movement, but
believe reasonably good support will
develop In case Of any material de-
preston below the lowest point OF to-
day.
corn-There was very fair run OF
low grade corn which made the cash
trade exceedingly draggy, with dis
the May delivery. There was good
many sales in the way Of profit taking
and the market acted very much In
sympathy with wheat. We antici-
pate a further setback. especially II
the car situation admits Of freer
movement.
Oats-The selling In oats was
largely local due to declines in other
grains, but the pressure was not very
heavy at any time and declines were
small rs compared with those regis
tered IN other pits. Cash demand for
the current offerings was reasonably
good at a moderate decline in values.
The market showed very little indi-
viduality Of any tendency.
