Liverpool Trade of

Liverpool was lower than expect
ed, but frmed up somewhat to stand
% to % cent lower at mid-after-
noon. Buenos Aires started 4 cent
lower
The trade placed a bearish con
struction on the report issued on
Thursday as it placed the condi-
ton of the winter wheat crop at
1913 per cent, high for so early in
the spring, but rejecting the mild
winter.
1t indicated crop of 644,OOO,0Oo
bushels, or around 100000 more
than harvested last year It also
indicated very little reduction in
acreage. This large crop with the
enormous carryover makes the pic
ture look very, very bearish.
Corn Opinion Mixed
While a number of traders active
in corn are bearish, opinion is mixed
and there is hesitation about SELL
ing in view of the small movement
from the country and the proba-
bic increase in the cash demand.
There were good rains over Illinois
and Indiana overnight, but the
weather was clear today and tenn
peratures lower.
The demand for cash oats has
increased steadily during the last
week Sales Thursday here and at
outside markets amounted to 210,-
900 bushels Liquidated oats have
been going into hands of locals
and northwestern cash interests at
about 30 cents, making an attrac-
tive purchase for feeding.

CHICAGO. April l0.-Wheat broke
a major fraction on the Board Of
Trade today under an accumula-
ton Of overnight selling orders re-
fiecting the bearish government re-
port
There was little support early. but
the pressure was not heavy as the
late decline Thursday partially dis
counted the report. Liverpool sagged
under selling inspired by the same
factor, but the decline met resist
ance. Corn was about steady,
largely on the unfavorable weather.
Oats we're steady with corn and on
the good cash demand.
At the opening wheat was 4 to y
cent lower, with hay unchanged:
corn was u cent lower to 4 cent
higher, and oats we're unchanged to
u cent higher. Provisions we're
slow, but steady.
