Corn Market Tone Firm
Despite Wheat Weakness

Inc corn market showed a firm tone
throughout the day despite the weak
ness in wheat and at the close prices
were 3 to 3asc net higher. Offers
were moderate and shorts were good
buyers.
The technical position of the mar
ket was evidently stronger as a re-
suit of the recent heavy selling and
considerable comment was made on re-
ports that the crop now needs rain in
Missouri and in some of the Ohio val
ley states.
Cash markets were somewhat stead
icr in the West and receipts, while
fair, showed a falling off. Argentine
corn was being offered freely at the
seaboard and sales were reported here
of a small cargo ahoat at $12O de-
livercd.
In the cash market No. yellow corn
was quoted at $1.6412 cost and freight
New York, ten days shipment from the
West.
