liverles on May contracts totaled 49,
600 bushels. The opening which va
red from &c lower to &c advance
with May S1.42 and July SL2S% to
Sl.26. was followed by a slight general
sag. and then something OF n reac-
ton. Wet weather delaying field op-
~erations in the corn belt gave firm
ness to tho market for corn and oats.
Subsequently tho market underwent
n pronounced setback owing largely
TO uncera that the Kansas
state report suggested a yield 3,ooO.-
900 bushels larger than that indicated
by the federal May 1 estimate There
was gossip too tina st. Louis was

After opening unchanged 70 a shade
higher. July e4k to e4sic, corn eased

all around.
Later the market sympathized to
some extent with the weakness of
wheat prices. The close was steady
