Chicago. June 18.-General buying
by commission houses sent the corn
market into new high records for the
season today, and except for occasional
setbacks, due to the execution of rest
ing orders to sell and profit taking by
over Sunday longs, the undertone ruled
strong throughout the session.
Sentiment continued bullish, helped
by further advance in live hogs, light
receipts and uncertainty about the
crop. Predictions were made that corn
would sell at 81 during the summer on
the theory that stocks would be small
Arrivals at primary points were little
more than half of last weeks, and the
opinion was expressed that the sea
sons run of the cereal had been COM
| pleted.
While there were no alarming re-
ports from the belt, the outlook was
viewed with apprehension, as the ne
cessity of replanting in number OF
sections suggests a late harvest. The
cash situation remained firm.
A private cable said that drought was
widespread throughout western Europe
and although it was believed that wheat
had not been affected, coarse grain ant
folders were suffering severely. Exports
from North American for the week were
negligible.
Unfavorable crop news caused rust
to buy oats and the market was stront
and active. Country houses and shorts
were good purchasers.
The visible supply in the United
States is 1883, 900 bushels, agains,
10. 800 900 bushels in the previous weel
and 1G, 760 900 bushels year ago. The
cash article was firmer. Shipments from
North America for the week were L.
766. 900 bushels.
The visible supply Of wheat in the
United States is 13 ,439, 900 bushels
against 10, ,S26 900 bushels in the pre-
vious week and 500 900 bushels last year
Shipments from North America for the
week were 10, 233 900 bushels, of which
8, 600 900 went out as flour.
