CHICAGO, October 2S.-Cold wealth
! err. expected to stimulate husking
| and Smelling. had a" bearish influence
| today on the corn market. The effect
! however was more or less minim1zed
! by higher quotations on hogs and by
a sharp falling-off in receipts: The
chief selling was on the part of spec
ulators. Opening prices, which ranged
from a shade to % lower, with De
cember, 1.27 to 1.27h. and May. 123k
a123M to 1924. were followed by
| slight rally in some cases and then o9
a moderate general decline.
| Oats were easier with corn. After
| opening unchanged to " lower, in
! Guiding December, 71h to TN. the
market sagged a little farther.
| Upturns in the hog market gave
| lift to provisions. The biggest gair
I was on pork.
