Corn wound up i&ic ii ic above Monday nl;;ht. oats down ih 22ic Provisions with n gaii of 5(gTJc to Good buying brought about an earlv r- hL,i(!"om, ?e,lte weakness In Wheat. The selling drive, on account of tbe gov-ernment gov-ernment figures, did not become as severe se-vere as expected. Xot only was the cold map a check on the bears, but Hip steady cables and the outlook- for both delay to seeding and for falling off in receipts re-ceipts northwest tended to favor a rally borne confusion a rone in regard to what sized crop the roturns would indicate. indi-cate. It is explained by u leading export Here that tho assumption of nineteen bushels an acre as par and a resulting estimate of fi62.000.000 bushels for the total to-tal yiild Is not official, but a mere trade calculation, and is not In accord with the official way of figuring. Tho government Is using seventeen and one-half bushels as par. On this basis and on an average amount of winter killing the government report would suggest a crop of 551,000.- 000 bushels. Disregarding winter killing! this year, howcverA as virtually negligi- I ble, and figuring rVie crop deterioration from now till harvest will equal a ten-year ten-year average, the report would Indicate a crop of 609,fin0,000 bushels. Much spirit was shown on the buying side of corn. At one time, the first actual ac-tual sale of a cargo of Argentine corn for delivery in Chicago led to a. setback, but thc effect failed to last. Tt appeared that the cargo might not come here, but be more profitably disposed of in Now England. Lightness of receipts hero and west, together with more urgent demand from interior consumers, encouraged the bulls. OhIs, although higher earlier with corn, gavo way later on account of competition com-petition of Canndian cargoes from Lake Superior. heard ty of hogs lifted provisions. A good deal of attention was given to tho heavy losses in thc number of hogs loft qfter the winter. rtANGC OF THE LEADING KOTUKES. "Wheat Opn. HIkIi.
