CORN WEAK AT CLOSING.
Averages Are Higher. hut Realis-
ing Causes Reaction.

CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-Corn averaged
higher to-day, but profit taking by hold
ers made the market react. Talk of pos
siole removal of the Canadian import
DUTY on oats was the chief bullish In
nuence. Corn closed weak. IL net
lower to 1c. advance. with May S122%
to S1.23, and July s1.1SA to s1.1S%
Oats finished a to ~ down, and pro-
visions on &c. TO 81.
Advances In the corn market were
closely associated with reports about
shortage of seed oats In Canada II
was said large supply would have to
be obtained In the United States, and
as need was so acute the Canadian Gov
eminent would remit the duty on such
shipments. In that connection gossip
was current that Communicating was IA.
progress at Calgary. Many traders
rnisconstrued the situation as implying
tfat all Canadian imports Of oats would
be free Of tax, whereas seed oats alone
were exempted. Bulllsh sentiment was
emphasized further by scantiness Of ar
rivals at domestic primary centres and
lack OF rural offerings. On the sharp
upturns which ensued Eastern interests
were free sellers and there was a con-
seuuent rapid decline.
Oats simply duplicated the changes
in corn.
Provisions had no aggressive support.
The record breaking shipments seemed
to have been discounted.
CORN-The market was feverish and
after sharp advance early In tho day
prices declined very rapidly, losing 81

tions about a cont lower. In the local
