CORN PRICE STRONG AS MARKET OPENS

CHICAGO, Aug. 14. In the opening grain market-corn showed considerable strength. It is said that cash corn was well cleaned up. Temperatures over the growing belt are still not of a forcing nature. Oats also were strong. Cleaning up of all cash oats by larger shippers and elevator interests creates the belief that more export business is being done than is reported. Provisions were weak at the opening. There was no trading in wheat.
