WAGNER GRAIN LETTER

CHICAO, Feb. 18.-Sentiment main
ly bearish but only small receipts in
corn are expected. The priority car
order expires at midnight tonight but
the run during the past 10 days has
been very disappointing. The far cast
ern roads will likely grant permits
to ship grain to New York Dizziness
of export demand and reselling of oats
along with the sales of some Argen-
tine corn to New York below United
States prices, suggests another drop
on Thursday. Washington demand
for easier food prices and packing
house talk of serious drag in ex-
port outlook for provisions, create
much talk. Sales apparently are due
on any closing bulge, though a long
break can be doubted.
