Grain Review

Chicago, May 2S-Predictions that
the 1917 corn crop would break all rec
ords for magnitude of yield sent prices
for that cereal whirling down grade To-
day. There was a general rush to un-
load holdings, Prices in some cases
showed a drop of 6 cents bushel
Opening quotations. which varied from
the same as Saturday finish to nc low
err, were followed by brisk rally. but
$141 as against $1.47 at the crest Of the
early upturn.
Later big decrease in the United
States visible supply total brought
about further bullish reaction. The
close was unsettled at lie to &c net de-
cline, with July at $2O5 and September
at 1888
Wheat developed little more activ-
ity than has been the rule Of late. Op-
timism in regard to the new crop out
look, however, tended to make prices
apprehension was felt in Great Britain
regarding supplies After opening !
cent to cents lower with July at $2.O1
to 500 and September at 31.S3, the
market dropped an extreme of SIC and
then recovered to a moderate extent.
Prospective heavy increase of arriv-
ais from the country was largely in
strumental subsequently in keeping the
market depressed. The close was ner-
vous at &c to Nc net decline.
Oats were unsettled by the weakness
of other grain. Covering on the part Of
shorts, though. prevented any radical
breaks in values.
Liquidating sales in provisions were
heavy. influenced by the bearish action
of corn. Lard prices especially gave
way.
