CHICAGO, July 17.-Wheat-There
out the day from profit taking by
longs and scalpers who refuse to place
confidence in possible damage to the
spring wheat crop. Primary receipts
are beginning to show the effects OF
new wheat movement and the sup
plies are large enough to encour-
age selling on the part of bears, while
there may be no general loss from
rust and heat in the northwest, there
will undoubtedly be a considerable
loss in production and under the pres
ent circumstances in Europe present
prices will probably look cheap later
on.
Corn-The bulk of corn trade was
In December and it showed such
strength that the pit element attempt
ed to take the bull side, SO that at
midday when rains were reported in
Kansas, there was a rush of selling
orders that carried prices sharply
lower to a point below Saturdays
close. New high levels were made
early. Whether corn is to continue
downward will depend on the weather
conditions west and southwest
Oats-Very reliable people report
that oats are being seriously hurt by
heat and the volume of buying orders
is increasing considerably. Some OF
the advance was lost in sympathy
with corn, but the market held steady
at the advance over Saturdays finish
Material damage has already been
done, but the trade are inclined to
the belief that losses will be unimpor-
tant.
