prices broke sharply during the early
trading today after displaying an
upward tendency at the start. An
advance in Liverpool quotations and
reports of continued drought in.the
Argentine were chiefly responsible
for the initial upturn here. Trade
was very light, and when commission
houses, which were on the buying
side yesterday, jumped over and led
in free selling, the market reacted,
with fluctuations verv rapid. Initial
quotations, which were unchanged to
half cent higher, with September
1.24K to 1.24h and December 1.29 to

decline all around.
Corn found support lacking at the
start and early firmness was soon
wiped away. Buying on resting or
