great strength of the supply and de-
mand situation is regarded as assert
ing itself. Heavy exports from the
seaboard are expected to continue
which will result in another reduction
in the visible supply next week. With
prospects that the United States will
go into the new crop with clean bins
and with cables indicating that acre
age abroad is to suffer anothrer reduc-
ton there is more disposition to take
the buying side of July. Corn traders
are generally bullish. Some of the

track country points before farmers
will loosen up on corn to any great
extent Fact that foreign demands

spite the fact of large sales recently
is taken as indicating that exports
this season will be abnormally heavy.
A scarcity of cash oats is developing
at some of the seaboard ports. Boats
are reported to be waiting at Phila-
delphia for cargoes and paying heavy
demurrage.
