WEEKLY PROVISION
AND GRAIN REVIEW

Chicago May 1O.-Violent fuc-
tuations due to powerful conflict
ing reasons have made this week a
memorable one for the Chicago
board of trade. The most spectac-
ular event was a lightning flash
break of IL cents a bushel in the
value of corn as a result of definite
notice that the United States would
import wheat from Canada. Conn,
pared with a week ago. corn prices
this morning were extremely ir-
regular, ranging from Z cents de
cline to an advance of "a cents.
oats were down rs cents to
cents, and provisions unchanged t.
$1.00 lower.
Before the big collapse of the
corn market took place in connec-
ton with announcement of the
plan to bring Canadian wheat into
the United States, corn prices were
being hoisted rapidly by planting
delays and by scarcity of hog ar
rivals. With hogs jumping to the
highest price ever known, the corn
market bounded up with extraOr-
binary force at times, even in the
face of warning from the national
wheat director that excess might
bring about possibly government
closing of the grain echanges. Fin
allys however, deferred deliveries.
of corn gave way to the bearish eff
feet of arrangements for the i'm
portation of 100000 bushels of
Canadian wheat and in view of the
government report that the 1919
domestic wheat crop would sur
pass the April forecast.
Oats were weakened by favora-
BILE crop conditions.
Provisions reflected the varying
aspects of the trade in grain and
hogs.
