Dc. 30. 1M3. Whether or not the longs In corn will B enabled tn holrl thnlr Dosltlon Is a question that may be heard on all sides. ihdic wim uouot the staouity oi ine duu side ot corn at present have In inlnd the lack of demand for the cash article, as ell as the fact that the trade In back ing away from the actual corn because the east lrtaktne only a little hero and there Tho nates of cosh corn here yes terday amounted to 63,000 bu which may be considered quite small under preeent condition. One of the best oosted men In the Chicago trade said last night that he believed considerable corn Is going Into the importing countries from America, as the offerings hers will doubtless Increase and outlet must be secured. Thero are many In the corn trade who eay that the country Is still long a good line ot that cereal and that while some them have bon forced out of their holdings there are many others who have put in stop-loss orders and that they may be forced out before another week rolls around, unless bad weather should develop, and In addition to this an im provement in the demand for the cash article must be seen. Those who know farmers best are aware ot the fact that they seldom dispose of any commodity around the best prices, as they generally get left by holding for higher and still higher values. The Uhioajro wheat market closed at advanced of Hfto, and thl.i strength came largely from the advanos at Winni peg, wnere cnicago concerns iei in tne buying. The upturn In the Canadian market waa a reflection ot the general belief that tho wheat In that country Is to be admitted to the United States freo f dutr. and that they will absorb a good portion of the surplus now being carried there. Oats ruled strons and closed rraouon- auy better on invostmeat nuymg, wmcn failed to become distressed because ot the talk of larsa lots of Canadian Ottts In this country. . . While there waa a fair investment de mand, led by local grain traders, the provision market was easier at the close, on selling ot lard and pork, credited to the larger packers. ...
