Cereals
Wheat-The wheat market was In an
unsettled position yesterday and there was
some disposition to anticipate imports
from Canada owing to the weakness In
Canadian exchange Press advices from
Ottawa intimated that Canada might ship
1000, 600 worth OF wheat to the United
while local houses with Canadian connec-
lions failed to confirm this rumor. they
said that there might be some shipments
of -four to the American markets.
1t still remains to be seen whether or
not Canada will consider taking this step,
and If it does, whether 1t will have much
influence on American prices.
The Northwestern markets were a trfle
easier, with prices cents lower the
outside. although Inside prices remained
firm and unchanged.
Many think that the weakness in for
eign exchange Is likely to have a very
strong bearing on all grains while recent
reports that Argentina has or is about to
extend a 5000, 100000 credit to the Allies
vas thought to point very strongly to a
larger movement of grain from the South
ern market to Europe.
Corn-The corn market was reactionary
during the early trading, with considera Bile
selling, prompted by bearsh interpreted
ton of the government report. published
after the close of the market on Friday.
strictions also had a strong bearing on the
market, as the situation was ex-
pected to improve in the future and
the country elevators were said to be- full
of corn.
The weakness IN foreign exchange again
had disturbing influence on sentiment
although late In the day the corn market
was steadier. This was believed to be
due to the strength in rye and barley and
also on report from Paris to the effect
that the Allies are. ready to accept some
of the American reservations to the peace
treaty.
