With the removal re-moval of maximum price restrictions and the beginning of trade in future delivery contracts based on the actual commercial grades, the corn market today became again a broad, active affair af-fair and jumped considerably higher than even radical bulls had predicted. It had been announced that $1.50 a bushel would be reached for the July option but some transactions took place as much as five cents above that level. The strength of the market was best illustrated by the fact that at the corresponding time a year ago, July stood at $L25Va. After opening this morning at $1.50 to $1.55 July and $1.27 i to $1.27 V2 May, prices steadied around $1.25 July. Oats were comparatively neglected and showed a lack of support. Opening Open-ing quotations, which varied from, unchanged un-changed to c lo.wer, were followed 1 by a material setback all around. Selling by pit traders tended to depress de-press provisions. Higher prices on hogs received but little notice. The com close was strong with July $1.57 to $1.57 H and May $1.27. Some buying that was ascribed to packers failed to check provision declines. de-clines. General shipping demand was slow. CHICAGO QUOTATIONS.
