| CHICAGO, Jan .9.-While there
was no let up in the demand for cash
| wheat, indefinite peace rumors were
used to break the market. The expec-
tation that Germany would make fur
| Their overtures, brought out heavy
realizing, which caused break OF
about three cents from the new high
! level on the present upturn made on
| the opening. Argentine news is bull
| is and the demand for cash wheat In
81, positions is we'll maintained at the
high premiums prevailing yesterday.
While reaction from some cause
may reasonable be expected, after the
sharp bulge, the shortage in cash
| wheat will eventually be bull fac
tor which will mean higher prices
than we have yet seen.
Corn-The decline in wheat was
felt in corn, although cash news re-
ports from the Argentine were bullish,
While farmers are reported as willing
to sell more freely, interior points re-
port an excellent demand at the sea-
board for all available supplies. The
new crop is starting out at such prices
as to encourage strict economy and,
above 81 at this time of the year, 1t
would not seem advisable to buy corn
| for investment purposes.
| Oats-There was selling Of oats to-
/ day credited to seabOard houses and
bearish demonstrations were INDUCED
I In by the local crowd on account of
the weakness in wheat. The difficulty
of moving the large accommodations
which are now held at terminal mar
/ kets discourages bullish operations
on the bulges.
