ToDAY,s CHICAGO PRICES.
CHICAGO. January 19.-Rather
general commission house selling led
to a price decline in the corn market
today during the early dealings. The
selling was based on favorable
weather conditions and on prospects
Of an increased movement in the near
future Practically no corn, however,
was obtained for Chicago on over
night bids. The opening, which ranged
from Il to haS lower. May. 7sA to
ther setback.
Wheat was easier in sympathy with
corn. Besides. cable messages from
France offered to resell wheat for
February, March or April shipment
at below present replacement cost.
After opening unchanged to saA
1.O6X to 1.osH. wheat underwent a
slight general drop.
Oats took the same course as other
grain. starting unchanged to shade
lower. May. 47k, and later sagging
little more.
pownturns in the value Of hogs had
a bearish effect on provisions.
