MARKET QUOTATIONS.
EASTERN SUPPORT
HELP CORN PRICE

Chicago, March 26.-Gossip that
seaboard exporters were bidding
gave considerable strength today
70 the corn market. Offerings were
readily absorbed, and it took but
little buying to lift March and May
tendency at first to sag. Opening
prices which ranged from q off to
1zc advance, with May SLASH to
SLASH, and July s13S to s1.3SA,
we're followed by a moderate gener-
al downturn, and then a rise all
around to well above yesterdays
finish.
Further gains carried all deliver
les to the highest prices yet this
season but then the market swept
downward, influenced by sudden
fall in quotations from Buenos
Aires and by big estimates of the
Argentine exportable surplus. The
market closed nervous at the same
as yesterdays finish to 1 nc ad-
vance. with May $1.4SA to $14SB
and July $685. to s1.39.
Subsequently the provision mar
ket made a sharp ascent in SYM
patty with grain, and then reacted
toward the last.
Oats were under pressure Of
liquidating sales from scattered
longs. After opening unchanged to
y lower with May 66 to SOS, the
market underwent further set
back before beginning to rally.
Provisions lacked aggressive sup
port. Absence of demand was at
tributed in part to the decline in
sterling exchange.
