GRAIN REVIEW

Chicago, Nov. 15.-Prospects Of an
increased crop movement resulting
from a more liberal supply of cars
tended today to ease down the corn
market. Attention was also given to
fresh efforts of the food administration
to bring about low range of feed
prices as a means of charging the meat
supply. Embargoes on two leading
eastern railways counted likewise as a
weight on the market. Opening prices,
which ranged from the same as yester-
days finish to Nc lower. with Deem
Der $1.19A and May S1.15 to $1.15A,
were followed by a slight reaction and
then by moderate general decline.
:. Oats were upheld by evidence Of de-
mand from the seaboard. Sellers APP
peared scarce.
Commission buying caused 1rmness
in. the provision market. Weakness Of
hog prices had no contrary effect.
Rallies ensued owing to upturns in
the oats market, but the effect failed TO
last. Reports were current that several
spectators who acted as persistent
bulls had been called before the federal
district attorney. The close was ner-
vous at the same as yesterdays finish
to nc lower, with December s1.19A and
May S1.15 to $1.15h.

ner Bean is no has-been and has
demonstrated that he has strength
and skill on the mat and is also cap
able of using his head as we'll as his
hands. Local fans will await with in

with Engel last spring, gives the
Greek the best Of the argument among
the wrestling fans here.
