and rapid fluctuations characterized
business in the grain pits. Announce
ment that there would be limit of
100000 bushels placed on the amount Of
grain any one could carry had much to
do with the nervousness shown. Corn,
influenced by big receipts, developed
notable weakness at the outset, but
quick covering by shorts brought about
a sharp rally, which, however, failed
to last. After opening Is to is cents
lower, with March at sl.26k and May
at 1922 to s1.23h, prices ran up far
above Saturdays finish and then lost
all the gain.
General evening up OF trades, espe-
cially on the part Of shorts resulted
later in a fresh advance which was
associated with the fact that weather
had become favorable for field work
The close was firm, Y to Ias cents
net higher, with March at sl.27S and
May at SIPS.
Oats parallelled the action Of corn.
The market was big broad affair with

swing and then a sudden reduction.
