PREMIUM FOR WHITE CORN

Omaha. April 81, 1917.
Tho cash wheat market reflected the dull
condition OF the future market, and. as u
result the sales OF this cereal were very
light, although receipts showed a fair In
crease.

of the commercial era les and sales Of white
corn were listed at $l.bl to $lb4, while vel.
low corn ranged from sl.44 to Sl.46 and the
mixed variety brought frolL Si.i4 to sl.45.
A wide premium was paid in most In
stances for white corn, as the demand for
this article was rather brisk and the offer
ngs very light.
Oats sold quite adj at the prevailing
prices and the market was quoted from 20
to SO lower. with No. 3 white selling at $40
to 69hc and No. 1 white bringing from
6SAo to 6S%c

New York. April 21.-Heaviness bordering

Indications Of great unrest In Germany
gave evident emphasis to bearish sentiment
at the outset In the wheat trade and in
clined dealers to attach more credence than
otherwise would be the case to rumors re-
garding Hungary and Bulgaria. Decreased
buying interest and a disposition OF new
holders to sell out was ascribed also to fed
eral diligence toward gaining control of the
food situation. Besides efforts Of board of
trade officials to curb undue speculation
tended further to prevent new upturns In
values. 1t was said however. that action Of
the directors of the board in setting official
marginal prices of sl.S5 for July and $1.6s
for September was not to be construed as
deterpining intrinsic values.
Weakness was most acute In the May de-
livery and In this connection a leading au-
