opening of the session Of the board OF
trade today seemed to be to the likin e

TO put out short lines. There were
early declines in prices and the feelin q
was unsettled and irregular
The selling commenced in earnest by
commission houses which were buyers
on the recentbrea and the result was
declines of 2sd2. for the day. Cash
corn was steady to sc lower.
While there was no great selling
pressure In the oats market thre were
declines for the day of u to 1c. This
weakness was mainly in sympathy
with the sharp declines in corn. There
was little buying on short account The
volume of trade was again light and
sentiment was Guite mixed early. but
1t was besrish late.

weak undertone and while cIosinRs
