CHICAGO, Sept I5.-Ths wheat
market was nervous and erratfc as
result of yesterdays sharp decline
On weak spots cash houses were HID
aral buyers Outside markets. espe-
cially Kansas City and Minneapolis,
were higher with September leading
the advance Investigation Of the Of
fsrtngs OF Argentine wheat brings out
the fact that the price at which this
wheat is available is about five cents
higher here than native wheat 1t VIII
take 2 while for the market to react
from the break of yesterday. but cash
conditions seem to warrant sharply
higher levels
Corn was easier while wheat
was lower, but unseasonably cold
weather over the western part OF the
belt caused some of the larger shorts
to cover A larger proportion OF the
crop is out OF danger than at this
time year ago, and frost at this
writing will therefore not do SO
great damage as it did late corn in
1915. However, the crop this year il
spotted throughout the country and
we have no excess corn to lose from
any cause A trading position Is ad-
vtsable until the market reaches
level more favorable for investment
Oats-Oats showed little fndepend-
ent action following for the most
part the cause OF other grains. Cash
houses bought Decent Der and 1t Is
thought that further export business
had been done today The buying
side on breaks is likely to result in
moderate profits.
