CHICAGO GRAIN
BY the Associated Press,

CHICAGO, July 18.-Surprise mois-
ture relief and cooler temperatures,
together with forecasts of more, top
pied corn prices headlong downward 4
cents bushel today and wheat 35s
cents.
In wild trading corn especially illus
trated to the extreme all the tickle
traits of a typical weather market"
substituting in swift fashion acute
weakness for enormous strength shown
of late. A sudden partial shift of con-
dltlonS at least temporarily away from
persistent drought and abnormal heat
damaging to crops turned the corn pit
In particular into bedlam of sellers,
bereft of any aggressive new specula-
tive buying
The corn market break followed ap-
proximately 80 cents to "a cents
| buShel almost vertical upturn, and
tumbled wheat lower because this sea-
son to greater extent than has been
the general custom all grains are be-
ing treated as interchangeable in use.
Corn closed unsteady at the days
bottom level. 37sa4 cents under yes
terday's finish, July 887s, September
S57s, December 1918; wheat nervous,
3a3as down. July 1.021s. September,
1.01a4 December. 102a4 04; oats
1'sa214 off. September 37a371s, and
rye showing 2asa2@s drop. The out
come in provisions was unchanged to
Is cents lower.
Despite predictions that vast deal
more rain is needed before the drought
will be over. the corn market displayed
for the time being but little power to
rally. Contributing to weakness of
corn values were official reports that
the major portion of the corn crop is
still subject to substantial improve
ment.
Much notice also was taken of the
fact that corn futures as well as cash
corn had reached an import basis, COM
pared with Buenos Aires quotations
Estimates were current that Argentina
| has 265, 100000 bushels of surplus corn
on hand. with shipments now being
worked to both the East and West
coasts of the United States.
Influenced more or less by forecasts
of cooler weather in Canada wheat
gave way with corn. despite word that
adverse crop conditions in Canada had
brought about the largest single days
export business from Canada that
had been accomplished in several
months. upward of 100000 bushels.
Acting as further weight on Chicago
wheat values was very heavy market
ing of domestic Winter wheat. This
augmented marketing was ascribed to
prices at country stations ranging from
20 to 40 cents bushei higher than
farmers had recently expected to re-
ceive.
September wheat was weakest. fall
ing to 1.o1 z from yesterdays close of
1.05a10 05ls, but closing at 1.O134a7s.
Rye and oats chiefly reflected changes
| in wheat and corn. The new crop of
rye is beginning to move more freely.
Provisions went lower, responsive to
corn action.
