CHICAGO. Sept. 20. Wheat. n
Wheat was strong, but met constdera-
BILE resistance in the way of realizing
by longs and bearish pressure around
new high prices for the present adj
vance. Export business yesterday was
larger than reported and. while moth
ing definite has been given out today.
there is reason to believe that the to-
tai will be near one million bushels,
as was the case yesterday News from
the Argentine is bullish, no rain being
reported over night. A local statisti-
clan has just issued very bullish
statement in regard to the exportable
surplus of the United States and Can
ada. September deliveries are going
to interest shipping out the wheat,
and the expiration of the current de-
livery will probably see the beginning
of a liberal outward movement.
Corn-Shorts in September corn are
being obliged to pay the holders price
and the principal longs are reporting
no difficulty in selling cash corn. The
fact that most of the public houses
are well filled has resulted in m1nlmiz-
ing deliveries on current contracts,
although the country has some corn
that should have been in for the filling
of thesse contracts. Another factor
that has helped the bull is the scarcity
of cars to ship available country ele-
vators' stocks At these prices it does
seem well to invest in corn and a
trading position is advisable until
the first run of new corn is over.
Oats-Despite the large stocks of
oats here, the September is showing
greater strength than the later
months, which seems to confirm the
belief that the bulk of the local sup
'puies is held by shipping interests.
The situation is similar to that Of
corn.
