CHICAGO. May 21-Fresh advances
In the corn market resulted today
from continued excessive wet weather
and from scantiness of receipts. Open
ing price. which ranged from 4 to
higher, with July 1.65 to 1854 and
September 1881 to 1891. were fol-
lowed by moderate additional gains.
Good demand from the seaboard
strengthened oats. After opening q
to 2 higher, including July at 69%
and then hardened again.
Provisions averaged higher with
grain. Business. though, lacked vol
ume.
