| CHICAGO, March 27.-Wheat-By
! midday wheat had made a new high
| level for the deferred deliveries and
May sold within " cent of the high
price last November. Prospective
shortage in the winter wheat crop,
the placing of an embargo by the Ar
gentine government and renewed for
eign inquiry for cash wheat were the
features. The majority of unfavorable
crop reports were suppressed or Is
sued in meagre detail, on account Of
the attitude of board Of trade Off
GERS. 1t is generally conceded, how
ever, that the winter wheat crop needs
moisture, especially in the southwest
and that considerable damage resulted
from the severe temperature last win
ter. Premiums for cash wheat are
strong, and there is nothing to indi-
cate abatement in the demand.
/ Corn-The Argentine embargo was
more of feature in corn than in
wheat. Up to midday values were
strong and higher levels maintained.
No. 8 grades in the sample market
were selling 1c to &c over May. Avail
able stocks, as estimated by Brad
streets are 14,101 900 bushels against
31,475,000 bushels a year ago.
Oats-Oats advanced easily early
in the day, but there was selling in
large volume by houses that usually
act for local ware house interests.
The market showed poor response
to the strength in other grains. Lib
eral available supplies are RESPONSE
BILE for most of the bear feeling, but
these stocks are decreasing rapidly
and should not discourage purchases
on moderate setbackS.
