CHICAGO, October 1S-Bul1ish senti-
ment continued to influence the corn
market today owing more or less to
forecasts of unsettled weathe- Nom
resumption of work by longs. ,remen
failed to act as an offset. and SO too
did weakness of foreign exchange.
Commission houses were fair sellers
early. but the offerings were readily
absorbed. Opening prices. which
ranged from u to " higher, with
December. 1.24k to 1.24ss, and May.
1.23h to 1854, were followed by ma
terial further gains.
Oats took an upward swing with
corn. After opening unchanged to u
higher, including December at II to
II V, the market scored moderate ad-
ditional gains.
Provisions were helped by the
strength of grain. Trade, though,
lacked volume.
Observation-Disclosures firm; arrivals,
SO cars; northern, sacked and bulk.
