Today's Market Quotations

CORN PRICES JUMP AS MARKET GPENS

CHICAGO, Aug. 17. Corn prices rallied today owing more or less to absence of any Important fresh developments pointing to a likelihood of "peace At first, the market showed weakness as a result of a continuation of recent sales by holders. Leading houses, though, were conspicuous purchasers, and the market soon headed up grade. Opening quotations, which ranged from c to c lower, with December at $1.134 to $1.13 and May at $1.10 to $1.10, were followed by an ascent all around to slightly above yesterday's finish. Export interests were said to be buying wheat here and at other points where obtainable and at advantageous terms for Immediate delivery. Trading in the Sept. option appeared to have entirely ceased, and no comparison with yesterday's latest price, $2,00, was feasible. Oats manifested -a good deal of strength because of big export 6ales. It was said 4,000,000 bushel3 had been taken this week for Europe. Provisions averaged higher with hogs. Buyers, however, were not at all aggressive.
