CHICAGO, March l3.-Heayy selling
by leading houses. together with re-
ports that federal prosecutors would
handle without gloves any attempts at
boarding meats or other food com
modities, led to sharp .setbacks today
IN the price OF corn. Opening prices
which ranged from rs 10 3A net low
er, with May 1874 to 1.39 and July
1.S3 TO l.S4. were followed by some
thing OF a rally. but then by decided
fresh declines.
Oats dropped with corn. After
opening u to ! y do.Sr, with May 63
TO 631e, the market underwent 8
further heavy sag.
Provisions weakened after a show
OF strength at the start. Packers
were said TO be on the selling side.
