CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Corn Prices Advance, Influenced by Scarcity
of Contract Supplies in Store

Chicago Sept. Corn developed notable
strength today Influenced more or less by
scarcity OF contract supplies in store here.
The market closed firm, u @lAc net higher,
with October. s1.5Sh @l.5sA and November
$L56$ @l.56A. Oats gained a shade to Ii c.
In provisions there was loss Of ESQ to
$1.00.
Reports showing that the stock Of corn In
Chicago elevators contained only $4,000
bushels of contract goods put the bears
at disadvantage from the outset. In
addition, country consignment notices re-
manned light, and receipts here were small
Frosts last night in lower Michigan and
western Nebraska tended also to stimula tie
demand. as heavy rains of late and the
unseasonably cool weather were said to have
hndered the new crop from maturing and
to have increased the likelihood of damage.
Oats were upheld by the strength OF
corn Most Of the trade was local.
Slowness OF cash demand led to sharp
liquidation In pork and ribs. Both staples
underwent maximum setback. Lard dis
played relative firmness owing to a moder-
ate call for spot.
727s the market continued to harden.
Provisions lacked support. Ribs especial
ly were weak
