CHICAGO. May 24.-Prices took an
upward swing in the corn market to-
day. Influenced by scarcity of offer
ings. Opening prices, which varied from
Y decline to 1 advance. with July 1853
to 159. and September 1.49 to i.4sA,
were followed by decided gains all
around.
Oats went higher in sympathy with
corn. After opening l of to u advance.
including July at S5N to S5k. the
market scored general upturn.
Weakness in hog values had a de-
pressing effect on provisions. Demand
was lacking.
