CHICAGO, October 16.-Although
rainy weather gave little fresh
strength to the corn market today,
the effect was soon counterbalanced.
The official forecast of clear skies
and lower temperatures promised to
restore conditions favorable for the
crop movement. Besides, bearish SEN
timent was emphasized by weakness
of foreign exchange and by lower
quotations on hogs. Opening corn
prices. which ranged from " off to
v advance, with December 1.22A to
1.22h and May 1.21A y to 1.211A, were
followed by a slight gain all around
and then a general sag.
