CHICAGO. March 10. ~ Wheat
Strike talk and precipitation IN the
southwest made an easier opening N
wheat, but the buying was OF sucn
character that the May delivery soon
reacted cents per bushel and the
July which was bought by strong IN
terests, showed little weakness. An
important factor in the steadiness was
the large export business which had
been done the last two days. Business
at the gulf yesterday and today was es-
timated at 10000 bushels. The mar
ket has been extremely nervous most
|of the day, with the volume OF trade
somewhat reduced from yesterday.
Foreign buyers are attempting to min
imize their requirements, and are cali
Ing special attention to liberal supplies
which still remain in Canada. 1t Is
unlikely that such liberal buying OF do
nestle wheat should continue II Can
ada had as large surplus as claimed.
The buying side looks better on dips.
Corn-Corn did not fully respond to
the early break in wheat, showing re-
markable firmness despite good deal
OF scattered liquidation early in the
season. The cash market holds hrm.
although receipts have been little
larger of late. The car situation, how
ever, is very discouragtng. During
the spring months there will be stub
born resistance to bulges, but, with
rising values in all kinds OF cereals.
the long distance outlook is bull1sh.
Oats-Scattered offerings Of oats
early were well absorbed by houses
with eastern connection. This has
held the market throughout most OF
the morning at moderate premium
over the close OF last night. Receipts
are small and. while the total available
supply is still $4,000 900 bushels in ex-
cess Of a year ago, stocks In sight are
disappearing rapidly.
