CORN MARKET HAS
RALLY NEAR CLOSE
Upturn Is Caused by Drought
in Southwest and 6versold
Condition of Cereal.
TRADERS ARE INACTIVE
Oats Are Irregular, Following
Action of COrn-PrOvisiOns
Reflect Realizing.

After displaying an irregular tone in
the early part Of the session the corn
market strengthened yesterday after
noon. Professional short covering,
buying on the reports OF the continued
drought in the Southwest and the over
sold condition of the market caused the
upturn. The visible supply was report
ed to have shown a small decrease,
which encouraged the longs. Trading
was quiet After tho declines Of the
last few days 1t was not difficult for the
mayket to become oversold, which
brought about a stampede on the part
Of the shorts. Although showers were
predicted for the week end In the dry
sections no precipitation fell, and there
is fear in some quarters that deteriora-
ton will set in unless some moisture be
received. But those in close touch with
the situation, however believe that the
crop can still go few days without
rain and remain unchanged. The latest
decrease in the visible supply further
encouraged buying.
At the opening there was general
bearish feeling because of the irregular
tone in the securities markets and the
belief that prices were destined to go
lower. The decline in hogs and the lib
also were heavy factors. But the shorts
began to take profits and at the same
time advices of the drought In the South
west filtered in. Thus the market re-
covered it's early losses. Cash corn was
lower. The car shortage prevents any
large movement of corn at the present
time.
Oats were irregular following corn,
but failed to show the strength that that
cereal possessed. Lack of foreign buy
ing and the large stocks on hand and
the favorable weather reports helped the
selling. The cash demand continues
good The movement Is email and
there is little chance that 1t will inn
prove until more cars be released.
Profit taking caused an upturn In pro-
visions, which closed steady.
