The dullness that prevailed for several days was so entirely Inconsistent with conditions that It became apparent that one or the other course must be adopted either shorts forced to cover or longs liquidate—and the latter materialized. Selling began early and Increased until substantial declines were established.” Cotton Letter—“ Heavy selling 1n the grain and stock markets had Its effect on cotton. The weekly weather report summarized conditions in the cotton belt as unsatisfactory, but in times like these news relating to the crop Is passed over lightly. Liquidation may of course carry prices lower, but we feel that it will prove to be temporary, as supplies are limited and the outlook for anew crop is unpromising."

CORN OF CURRENT MONTH HIT HARD May Delivery Recedes 12 Cents, Then Gains Some. CHICAGO, May 19. May corn fell 9 bents on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Continued reports of declines in commodities, together* with increased receipts, favorable weather, and a large number of cars available were said by traders to be responsible. July corn was off 3 cents at st.(ft. September corn was down lc at $1.57. Oats were off from a fraction to a cent. Later the market recovered alightly, May corn gaining 3 cents. Provisions were lower on scattered selling and a lack of buying support. Opening prices: Corn—July, $1.68%@ $1.67%; September. [email protected]%. Oats— July, 89@88%e; September, 74%@74c. Pork—July, $36.37. Lard—July, $20.75; September. [email protected]. Ribs—July, $lB 40. During the forenoon the quotations on May corn fell 12 cents, but recovery started there on covering by shorts. There were indications, however, that the check was only temporary, as fresh offerings were thrown into the pit at once. Omaha reported cash corn selling 10c lower. Expectations of still further increase of grain carrying by the roads, good crop weather and a lack of demand in the cash market were leading factors In the forenoon. Heavy buyers at the recent high prices who withheld the selling assault Tuesday finally yielded and their offerings helped push quotations down. CHICAGO GRAIN. —May 19CORN—Open. High. Low. Close.
