Chicago, March, 21.-Wheat-The
wheat market in the first half Of the
session was dull and irregular. A fair
amount of buying was credited to ex-
port account and commission houses
bought in a moderate way on orders
from territory where winter wheat is
not making a satisfactory showing.
BY midday a local short interest was
uncovered and this caused a rally 10
the top price for the day. While pri-
mary receipts were regarded as bear
ish. arrivals at the seaboard were al
most equal in volume to the total re-
ceipts at primary markets Clear
ances are liberal for the hrst two days
Of this week and taken in connection
with the large clearance Of the pre-
ceding week, indicate that March
should exceed the total seaboard ship
ments Of February.
Corn-Corn was easy early because
wheat was lower and because OF an
other embargo against Baltimore by
the B. & Q. railroad effective at mid
night March 90. Later when wheat
turned corn rallied. 1t was reported
that the Dutch government was in
quiring for corn at the seaboard and
this with the absorption by commits
sion houses resulted in an improve
ment in values. Shipping demand is
slow. but receipts are correspondingly
light
Oats-There seems to he fair de-
mand for oats both for domestic and
export accounts The movement is
not burdensome and supplies are
gradually moving into consumptive
channels. Buying today by shorts
and by representatives of the sea
board turned an early week market
| into a steady one with an advancing
! tendency
