Late Market Quotations

Long Commission Co. Grain Letter.
CHICAGO, March 10.-Wheat-
Wheat bulls are timid on account Of
the heavy stocks the country over.
The depression which this surplus
wheat is expected to exert has taken
the edge off the market, also the con-
gestion east bound Is bad, and on ev-
cry minor upturn wheat is for sale
very literally. After few weeks, it
is likely that the freight situation will
be less bearish than now and that
| with the help Of crop damage reports,
! prices will work higher. In the mean
time a traders position in the market
! will be safer and advisable, except for
| the investor, who wants to buy July
wheat on scale down.
| Corn-Corn was firm at prices
slightly higher than last nights close.
This steadiness was attributed to q
statement put out by number Of cash
interests, to the effect that industries
were demanding more corn than last
week. This exceptionally large con-
sumption and the prospects Of lighter
receipts on account OF break up in the
country roads during the last two or
| three weeks, are responsible for the
| higher levels Buying on resting or
ders was good early.
Oats-Oats were steady with corn.
there being less pressure from local
traders. There was some buying by.
| spreaders, who have oats short and
! are long on corn. Cash demands was
reported slightly improved. The tone
| OF eastern markets was better and
some shipping demands helped.
Modern Miller reports serious dam
| age by winter killing, coming In from
southern parts of the winter wheat
belt. Also from Kansas, Illinois, Mis-
souri,, Indiana and Ohio. Insects are
possibly causing considerable damage
| also. Damage on low and flat lands
will be very extensive. Insect in
| crop reported very bad. Hession fly in
Texas is confirmed and ten per cent
is claimed by some as a maximum
crop. 1t is too early to estimate dam
age to northern and central parts.
