GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Buys in May Future by Large Con
cerns Hold Losms Down in
Saturday Break.
CORN INTO MORE PROMINENCE
OMAHA. Jan. 11, 191X.
The fact that an army of weak-kneed
long liquidated their holding on last
Saturday, and which was mainly respon
sible) for the sensational break, was a
help that will be reflected in this mar
ket today or tomorrow. The wheat mar
ket was In strained position all day
lB"t Friday and at the opening on Sat
urday something unusual was forced to
alve way, and thin was the price break
Hint was seen during the forenoon. Had
It not been that sonic of the larger con-
ff-rnm in the trade bought quite freeley
(.' the May future the lows would have
l.cen much greater than shown.
I The talk of preventing further exporta-
1 1f! nP of Kbit hv m law In ha naaaed
by congress la likely to prevent auy sc
cuinulation of big line, as heavy long
under those conditions would, bo In a
dangerous position. It Is only neceassry
grain ha had a profit of ?- per bushel.
On all weak eputs established In May
wheat for several ds past the buying
was quite strong. Ietng led mainly by
the larger concerns In the trade, and who
were supposedly acting for Importing
countries who are known to be In pee,!
of our grain. It la xiected that th
movement (1f wheat in both the great
Iflts will be large In case a further ad
vance In prices Is made, but in rase of
price recensions there would he general
tightfntng of holdings of wheat and con
sequent higher prices. H
The big demand for corn on export ac
count during last week was not only a
surprise to the bulls, but a great dis
appointment to the bears. Purchases of
corn by forelim countries was a reflec
tion of the Inability to secure liberal sup
plies of wheat. Many of the countrlea
abroad are advising the use of substi
tutes for wheat In the shape of oorn
meal and potatoea. This will bring the
corn Into more prominence, and It will
be more likely liberally used.
Oaw continued to be taken In good
quantities by exporting nations and the
price of that grain Is more likely to he
held. Irmly. Offerings of cash oats by
the country are moderate and the buying
power In the pit has shown slgna of In
creasing. The lirovlslon market will continue to
pivot on the receipts and offering of
hogs at the Western markets, ooupled
to nay that one of the most successful . with the buying power In the cash meats

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Fcatares of the TrwdlneT and Closing
i. Pricea ow Board f Trade.
.CHICAGO, Jap. 18. Announcement of i
aecrease 01 nearly 4.ouo,oii luishcls In the
United States visible supply of wheat
tended to act aa more than an offset to
day for the bearish effect of federal In
quiries. Prices closed unsettled, but hio
to 4c above Saturday night.
Wheat embargo talk had considerablo
to do with lifting corn today to the high
est Jariuary price in more than twenty
years, with the market finishing ytflHa
to lc above Saturday night. Outs galnej
a shade to o and provisions l-Vr'aljo
o 2JHo.
Although wheat prices at the start took
a downward bend as quite generally ex
pected after President Wilson's order, for
an official scrutiny of the recent big
advanye, the depression In the market
proved to be not of a lasting sort. It
was not long before advices wore at hand
telling of wheat stocks falling off through
out the United Ktatee at a rale mora than
two and one-half times as rapid as ut
in corresponding perloa a year ago.
Wheat strength reached its greatest
aeveiopmem in tne last nour 01 trading,
the market becoming (somewhat excited
by assertions that the export sales' of
com were the largest of the year.
.Com waa the strongest market on the
grain 41st today. . Export sales of corn
here and at- the seabeard wero estimated
at LSOO.OOO bushels. A favorite theory of
the bulls in the corn pit was that to a
large extent EurODe would either have,
to eat corn in place of wheat or go with
out. The fact that the domcstio visible
supply of corn Is the largest on record
failed to stop today' avaitce. Oats were
held down by heavy selling on the part of
one of the principal warehouse concerns.
Export sales of oats were confined to
lM.noo bushels.
Higher prices for hogs carried provi
sions upward. Shorts revie( fel.
