| CHICAGO, Sept 6.--Wheat-Heavy
profit taking checked an early bulge
| in wheat and, by midday, prices we're
around those Of last nights close.
The most significant feature OF the
day was an excellent demand Tor cash
wheat from exporters and millers.
Minneapolis showed decrease OF
about 100000 bushels for four days,
despite the fact that they are receiv'
/ ing a very heavy run of winter wheat
and continue to buy car lots In Kan
sas City at advancing prices. Foreign
crop reports are mostly bullish, and
this is reflected in an urgent de-
mand for North American wheat.
Since July 1, North America has
cleared about 73,000,Oo0 bushels OF
wheat, as compared with about 3d.
100000 bushels from July to Septem'
her /, last year. The cash wheat SIT
uation throughout the world will be
supporting factor while the movement
Of wheat is on In this country, ana
will eventually mean much higher
prices.
Corn-While the demand for old
corn is not urgent, 1t keeps pace with
available offerings and New Englano
points are paying around $l.0O per
bushel for old corn delivered. rms
situation just before a new crop OF
very moderate proportions is to be
harvested, is attracting the attention
of some OF the larger spectators.
who are disposed to trade In corn at
the relative cheapness as compared
with wheat. The market today has
had a minor reaction, but the under
tone has been firm at little under
last nights close. A large short IN
terest Is thought to exist, and the
market is not likely to have any ma
terial break until this interest Is
eliminated.
Oats-In the face OF an increase OF
over six million bushels in the visible
supply last week, exporters and COM
mission houses were good buyers TO-
day at prices ranging above those OF
yesterday. The current delivery shows
remarkable strength and indicates q
healthy situation for the Investors.
