CHICAGO. Dec, 8

Slight easiness in the initial dealings
was followed by development of frm-
ness in the corn market this morning.
The trade failed to enthuse much on
the bear side notwithstanding the ex-
pressed belief that receipts are going
to be larger.
Attention was called to the fact that
stocks remained small and that the cash
article was selling much above futures,
and it was insisted that until these con-
ditions are adjusted sellers would be-
timid.
December. after opening unchanged at
sl.24, moved up "a January started At
Sl.c07s a l.20sa. against $1.21h at the
end yesterday. and rose to $1.21%: May
was quoted at $l.lSA q 1.lsss at the
outset. against $i.1sh. the final quotas
ton of yesterday. and advanced t9
S1.19L.
The receipts here today were ia
cars. The undertone at Liverpool re-
mained steady and crop advces from
Argentina continued unravorable, with,
dry weather causing further deteriora-
ton.
Oats also improved. after Svavering at
the start Offers were small and this
made sellers cautious. December started
at 12hc to 71hc. against 727sc at the
end yesterday. and advanced to 73Ac.
and May opened at 70as m70c, against
1otc at the close yesterday, and ad-a
ranced to T0a4c.
The receipts here today were 15S
cars. The tone at Liverpool was easier,
The receipts OF wheat at Minneapolis
and Duluth today were Is cars, against
Az cars last year, at Winnipeg 643
cars. against S95 cars; at Chicago &c
cars, compared with 49 cars.
The tone at Liverpool was softened
by free arrivals.
