GRAIN REVIEW

Chicago July 1s.-Corn prices aver
aged higher today, influenced by
weather conditions unfavorahle to
growth. Fears were expressed that the
crop as whole was already so late
that chances of damage from early
autumn frosts had been greatly en-.
larged On the other hand, continued
peace talk hndered aggressiveness on
the part of bulls. Opening prices which
ranged from the same as Saturday S
finish to q C higher, with September at
$1.591a to $l.60 and December at Sl.l2A
to $112A were followed by material
advance all around, and then reac-
ton that wiped out most of the gains.
Reports which were construed as
showing that the reichstag was defying
Emperor William and his generals led
afterward to sharp break in prices OF
future deliveries Corn for immediate
use however, touched a new high price
record, No. 2 white selling at 50
bushel The close was nervous on flu
lures at &c to sssc net decline. with
September at $685. to S1.5s and De-
cember s1.O9A to $1.09A.
Assumptions that wheat will be
brought under absolute government
control kept trade in that cereal at a
minimum, with prices showing no
great change. First transactions varied
from Kc decline to l cent advance, With
July at $2.O5 and September at S1.e5..
Later the market hardened. owing
apparently to decided falling off in
the United States visible supply total.
The close was steady at the same as
Saturdays latest figures to 1sc higher,
with July at S2.05H and September at
s1.95k.
Promising field advices made oats
relatively easy. What buying there was
seemed to be inspired by the strength
of corn.
Selling of lard on the part of Satur-
days leading buyers Weakened all Of
the provision list.
