GRAIN FUTURES WEAK UN GOOD WEATHER NEWS Corn Sells Unevenly Lower With Little Support; Oats Off. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Pres, Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, March 30.—Continued : good crop weather was the chief i factor in an easy wheat opening on | the Board of Trade today. Old j crop months remained firm, but the | new crop deliveries were steady to a fraction off. There was some selling on the ! week-end developments and the easy | tone at Liverpool, though that market held steady at a small decline. Com was unevenly lower, with wheat on light selling, which met little support. Oats showed weakness, today, with March meeting stiff liquidating sales. English Trade Strong At the opening old wheat was ® cent higher, new wheat unchanged to % cent lower, corn was unchanged to % cent lower and oats were unchanged to ® cent off. Provisions were about steady. Liverpool was stronger than expected though down % to ® cent at mid-afternoon, holding steady at an initial decline. Buenos Aires was down at the start but off only % cent during the morning. Sentiment in wheat is largely bearish. The carrying charge between September and July is expected to widen to the most profitable basis of the season. In general, present prices have discounted practically all conditions. Weather Is Favorable The weather still was favorable for the crop though clearing up in the north and northwest, somewhat. There h*s been a resumption of spreading operations in corn, buying the maize and selling wheat, which has prevented a sharp decline. Sentiment is bearish in this pit also. The country is not offering much and the producers are generally holding above buyers views. The unsettlement in the other grains has had its effect on oats but declines have been small owing to the good cash demand. Chicago Grain Table —March 30— WHEAT (old) Prev. High. Low. 11:00. close.

ANOINT COFFIN OF HUGE SIZE Find Egyptian Sarcophagus Larger Than Cheops. Bv Science Service PHILADELPHIA, March 30.—The largest sarcophagus ever found in Egypt has been discovered at Meydum by an archaeological expedition from the University of Pennsylvania museum. The find was reported today to the museum here by Alan Rowe, field director of the expedition. ‘•The red granite sarcophagus, which dates to about 2900 B. C., is aproximateiy seven and one-half feet in length, considerably larger than the sarcophagus of Cheops found at the great pyramids at Gizeh some years ago,” Mr. Rowe states. ‘’Moreover, it retains its lid, a feature which was missing in the case of the Cheops coffin. “The sarcophagus chamber, too, is of massive construction and has a roof block over its doorway which alone weighs thirty tons. It is evident, however, that the chamber was built after the coffin was put into place, for the latter, together with its granite lid, weighs about twelve tons and is far too large to pass through the doorway of the chamber.”
