today by breadstuffs, July wheat and both
May and July delivery Of rye went under
any previous down turn. Bearish views OF
the economic outlook, especially as affected

ket later. Opening prices, which varied
from 112c decline to &c advance with May
$1.35 to 81 SO and July $10912 to S1.11A
were followed by losses all around and then
by reaction to about yesterdays finish.
Prospects of freezing temperatures to-
gether with talk of further export buying
of new wheat counted later in favor of
the bulls. Prices closed unsettled, &c net
lower to 1hc advance with May $136 to
$1.36A and July SLIP to $1.12A.
CORN-Corn reflected the changes in the
wheat market After opening &c to Nc
lower, including May at 59ssc to 591ac the
market underwent an additional sag, and
then recovered.
Country offerings were small and re-
ceipts meager. The market closed firm at
the same yesterdays finish TO &c high
er with May 59hc to 59A@60c.
OATS-Oats were easier with other
cereals. starting &c to sc down, July 3S5sc
to 3S1zc and declined a little more before
beginning to react.
PROVISIONS-Weak in the hog mar
ket led to a setback in provisions.
