the corn market showed a fresh
downward tendency at the outset to-

yesterdays closing figures. Favorable
weather and an accumulation of over
night orders to sell were the reasons
for the weakness at the start. On the
decline, however. active new buying
developed, and the market made a
quick response. Opening quotations,
which varied from the same as yes

December 1.6I to 1.07l2, were fol-
lowed by a moderate further sag and
