CHICAGO-GRAIN
Active general selling had depressing
effect on wheat prices during the early
dealings, cable quotations were much lower
and some leading traders have taken the
view that shortage of world production
had been discounted in full On the down
turns in price however, buying enlarged
and it was said that export demand was
again in evidence. The opening, which
varied from cent to 3-S cent lower, with
December 1.48 to 1.481a and May 1.52 "a
1924, was followed by moderate rally
Unfavorable weather in Iowa and some
other sections of the corn belt steadted
the corn market. notwithstanding the tenn
porary declines that resulted from SYM
pathy with wheat weakness. After open
ing 5-8 to IL cents lower, Decsn1ker 1.110I
to 1.12H, corn rose slightly above yester-
days finish.
Oats were easy in the absence of any
aggressive buying, prices started unchang-
ed to 7-8 cents off. December 66 1-S to
Sc Ia cent, but later recovered.
Provisions displayed no significant
change.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
NEW YORK CITY-Prices tluctuated
opening of today's stock market. United

of the new stock offering and an adverse
tax decision in the Illinois courts, but the

changes on initial sales.
