CHICAGO, September 12.--Corn
prices took an upward swing today.
Influenced largely by an advance in
the hog market Besides. prominent
| traders expressed the opinion that
selling of late had been overdone and
| had more than discounted all bearish
factors. Complaints of car shortage
tended also to stimulate buyers. Open
| ing prices, which ranged from the
! same as yesterdays finish to IN
higher. with September 1.53ka1.54
and December 1.26A a1.261s, were fol-
lowed by moderate gains all around.
Oats rose with corn. Offerings were
| liberal, but were we'll absorbed. After
opening unchanged to y higher. in
Guiding December at II to 71k, the
market continued to ascend.
Provisions were strengthened by the
advance of hogs and grain. Most Of
the trading was in lard.
