CHICAGO. October I9.-Wheat
prices developed conside erablc strength
today, selling pressur" being much
less in evidence ;han during the two
days preceding. i'rofit- taking on the
part of recent short sellers helped
the market to rally. Besides. the
opinion was popular that a reaction
was to be expected after the drastic
decline which had taken place of
late. Opening quotations, which
ranged from 4 cent lower to IL
cents advance. with December LOS to
LOG and May 1.10lz to LII, were fol-
lowed by a decided upturn all around.
Corn and oats rose with wheat.
Corn opened unchanged to 4 cent
higher. December 46 to 46h, and
then scored a moderate general gain.
Oats after starting unchanged to
4 cent lower. December 32h to 32k
went upward for all deliveries.
Scattered buying of provisions was
sufficient to overcome any bearish ef-
fec. of lower quotations in the hog
market.
CHICAGO, OCTOBER 19.-Subsequent-
~. support was lacking and the
wheat market declined to new low
record prices for the season. Lloyd
Georges speech on unemployment
was a bearish factor. The close was
heavy. IL to net lower. with De-
cember 1.031a to 1.03a4 and May 1.0Sk
to 1.0sh.
! Later the corn market declined
when wheat turned downgrade. The
close was weak, Il to Nah net low
er. with December 451sa45M to ASH.
