CHICAGO, June 2-Wheat-The
volume of business in the wheat pit
was small. The bears continued to
have the best OF the little argument
holding wheat In the hope of better
cash demands. We're the principal sell
ers today. Shorts have been the best
buyers. Crop news is bullish, but
new trade seems to be scarce, and the
sumo the handicap Of visible supply
of over 100000 in this country and
21,000,000 in Canada, in addition to
large farm reserves in both countries.
Corn-The corn market acted much
like wheat, except the shorts covered
more freely. The southwest is get
ting the bulk Of the shipping business.
At this.market the demand is slow and
the country offerings light Ohio and
Indiana points are said to be offering
some corn to markets further east.
Barring some damage to the growing
crop, there Is little to encourage bull
ishness.

grains and only in moderate demand.
A large part OF the buying came from
cash interests, more so than in wheat
and corn. While crop prospects are
good, the outlook is not for bumper
crop, but acreage planted indicates a
crop of better than the average.
