CHICAGO. March 21.-Wheat-
First half of the session was dull and
irregular. A fair amount of buying
credited to export account and COM
mission houses bought in a moderate
way on orders from territory where
winter wheat Is not making salts
factory showing. By midday local
short was uncovered and this caused
rally to top prices Of the day. While
primary receipts were regarded as
bearish, arrivals at the seaboard were
almost up to the total receipts at pri-
mary markets. Clearances are liberal
and for the first days of this week
and taking in connection with the
large clears of the proceeding week
indicate that March should exceed
the total seaboard shipments of Feb
ruary. A trading position seems to
be the, only conservative course at
present.
Corn-Corn was easy early because
of weakness in wheat and because of
another embargo against Baltimore
on corn by B. and o. railway effec-
tive at midnight March %. Later
when wheat turned, corn rallied. 1t
was reported from the eastern sea-
board that the Dutch government was
inqufring for corn, and this with the
absorption by commission houses re.
suited in an Improvement in values.
Shipping demand is slow, but re-
ceipts are only moderately.
Oats-Cash demands for oats fair
for both foreign and domestic ac-
count. The movement is not burden
some and supplies seems to move out
as fast as they come in. Primary re-
ceipts are still less than the ship
ments, with clearances only fair.
