GRAIN-Five weeks ago cash corn
sold as high as S2.17 a bushel at Chi
cago. while July was around SLTS. Yes
terday the highest on cash corn was
S191 with July at S1.S3. This condition
suggests the avoidance OF the buying

that depleted supplies In dlstributive
centers are being replenished to some
extent.
Primary receipts Of corn recently have
been above the ordinary movement.
This fact seems TO have been overlooked

CORN LOWER ON
GENERAL SELLING
Liberal Receipts and Lack of
Support Are Factors.

CHICAGO. June 22.-All grain fu-
lures broke sharply on the board of
trade today under fairly liberal re-
ceipts, lower spot prices, favorable grow
ing weather and the weight of yester-
days heavy liquidation.
July rye alone showed any resistance
to the decline, being aided by renewal
of export demand.
Buying against bids and profit taking
gave about the only check to the de-
cline In the rest Of the list. Covering
by early sellers rallied prices about one
cent from the low at the close.
July corn opened at $1.S1A, down &c,
and declined further to $1.79 at the close.
September corn opening late at $1.79 was
down &c and later last &c.
