This selling came after a' mid-day bulge and forced a read ion which foufld prices In lower ground at the close. Wheat closed unchranged to lower; corn whs tyc lower to %c higher; oats were unchanged to %o down and rye ruled %r lower to V*c higher Selling of wheat by cash houses against purchases In the northwest has been go ing on for several days, and has been Indirectly the cause of the market's lies! tatlon upward. Eastern firms were sup porting on the dl» s, but t he volume of trade on . the whole was not large. Corn acted Independently strong dur ing the greater part of the session re gardless of the reactionary tendency of wheat. There was fair buying on the early dibs and prices moved up easily. Local selling In sympathy with the de cline In the lending cOr»al carried prices off from best levels. Cash corn was in good demand at lower levels Trade In nuts was less active. Com mission houses were operating on both sides of the market. There was a moderate buying of rye futures hv the east Otherwise, trade was slow and the market reactionary with Wheat. Provisions were higher in a fairly ac tive traife. Lard was 17 A* to 20c higher and ribs were 2*4 to 5c higher. Pit Notes. Many in the grain trade were of the opinion that the president's message was sane and constructive. The urging of congress to invest the war finance cor poration with liberal authority to extend credit abroad for the exportations of our surplus crain and fats was the main topic discussed by the trade. Those expecting the president to bark Secretary of Agriculture Wallace's plan were disappointed. * Thev pointed out that the head of the war finance corpora tion has been onnoped to extending credit to Europe because he doubted that satis factory guarantee of repayment could be obtained. A Minnesota congressman advises that the war finance corporation has some thing like IKS 000.00ft available and the "ftwer lo call unon the treasury for ad ditional funds. Should congress grant this rower it is quite likely that the effect In the grain market would be very stabil izing Rain In the Argentine has been con firmed as having damaged the matur ing wheat cron In that rountrv. However, the rains were not extended, and mes sages claim that conditions are now generally favorable. Russian shipment of ere«n the last week totalled 1,728,000 bushels. CHICAGO MAKKETS.
