Chicago, Sept. 21.-Thc strike of the
steel workers failed to have the ex-
pected bearish influence on the corn
market and the undertone was firm, on
unsettled weather and strength in hogs,
but trading was tame.
Pressure was lacking and buying by
commission houses and support from
bulls forced covering by shorts. There
was little realizing at the top. Ship
ping sales were reported to be light,
but the cash article was better.
The visible supply in the United
States is 1.75O. 900 bushels. against
J.140. 900 bushels last year.
Trade in oats was slow and local, but
the market was firmcr in sympathy with
corn and on the failure of the steel
strike to have the expected depressing
influence. Shorts were compelled to
cover.
The visible supply In the United
States is 2O.935 900 bushels. against
u ,O23, 900 bushels in tho previous week
and 2G,05o 900 bushels last year.
The visible supply of wheat in the
United States is 77,0SS 900 bushels
