Of the export market and private re-
ports indicating generous crops COM
bined to weaken the early. wheat
at 1.3O to 1904, rallied from this
early break. then sank back to 1.30.
July started y to q lower at 1.06A
to 1.061a and fuctuated around that
figure. Trading was light.
Corn was Influenced largely by free
selling of the May option, which
started y to 3s lower at SSH to 56 ".
1t was driven down to 55% 5%a55A be-
fore any support came out. July and
September opened a fraction below
yesterdays close, but held that posi-
ton fairly we'll in the face Of the
drive on May.
Oats were generally neglected and
few transactions were recorded. July
began Il lower at 81 to 37h. then set
tied to 367s and steadied at the latter
figure.

lies later and the. early declines were
recovered. May closed y to l net
higher, at 1.3l to 1914 and July

Corn firmed up toward the end on
seaboard sales of 100000 bushels and
on selling of May and buying of July
by some cash houses. which were
changing hedges. The close was 4
to q net higher. with May at 81 to
57M and July at COZ to 60H.
