WHEAT PRICES WEAKER
ON BLOCKADE REPORTS
Sharp Decline Follows New High
Record in Ocean Freight Rates.
Buying Restricted.

SI1ISAIO, ILL.,, january 1o-W ucdt
prices weakened today on assertions
that Tightening of the blockade of neu-
trail ports would complicate difficulties
of exporters and restrict buying. A
fresh advance to a new high record in
ocean freight rates from the United
States to Great Britain was an addi-
tfonal factor. Opening prices, which
ranged from y off to y up. with May
at 131A to 132 and July at 124h to
124&. were followed by a sharp de-
cline.
Corn Prices Yield With Wheat.

outlook was for increased arrivals at
Minneapolis and Duluth. 1t was denied
that the Canadian government had been
buying. The close was weak, IN to *
net lower, with May at 1904 and July
