RlMARY RECEIPTS AND SHIPMENTS
Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. Jan. 1s.--Weakness that pre-
vailed in the corn market today was
apparently due more or less to new low
records OF exchange rates to Europe. The
close was nervous, sac to 1%c down, with
May, ns2k @132.A and July ,sl.soA @
sions the outcome ranged from 27c de-
cline to 3oc advance.
Selling pressure against corn was rather
heavy at times and there was sharp
watch throughout the day on foreign po-
litical developments. good deal Of no
tice was given to messages which told
of export purchases Of oats having been
Cancelled. Increasing receipts further bur-
dened the corn market. and so did lower
quotations on hogs. The only ralliss which
took place were ascribed to . little COW
ering by shorts.
Oats receded with corn. but on the de-
cline obtained timely support from lead
ing bulls.
Slowness Of cash demand was IN ele.
ment of weakness In provisions. Besides,
there were big deliveries on January lard
contracts. Increased stocks too, were
shown by the semt-inonthly warehouse re-

stated. in fact, the reports as to whole

those as to retailers point to slowing
