CHICAGO. April 6-Forced CLOSING
out of trades belonging to firm
which had been conspicuous of late OF
the bear side of the corn market led tc
a fresh advance today in the price o
nearby deliveries of corn. AS soon
however. as the open interest referred
to had been covered the market under
went a sharp decline. The forced buy
ing was estimated at 100000 bushels
The subsequent setback was ascribet
to heavy calling of margins, as mucl
as Is cents bushel on corn being de
manded in some cases. Opening quo
tations. which ranged from q declin'
to ! z advance. with May s1.66 to Sis
and July $3.50 to s16l. were FOLLOWED
by a tumble all around to well below
yesterdays finish.
Oats lacked the artificial stimuli.
which at first lifted the corn market
From the outset weakness was appar.
ent. owing to burdensome calls fol
greatly increased margins. After
opening 14s down TO q advance. in
cluding July at 81 to S4N the market
underwent a general decline.
Cpturns in the value of hogs gave
relative firmness to provisions. De
mand, through, was not urgent.
