GRAIN QUOTATIONS

CHICAGO, Sept. 16. Corn weakened in value today owing chiefly to an embargo on shipments of grain to Kansas City, St. Louis and 'Omaha. The embargo was expected to Increase he movement to Chicago, now the sole big center that has not suffered from congestion. Peace talk tended to emphasize bearish sentiment, but only in a minor degree. Opening prices which varied from unchanged figures to 7-8 lower, with October 152 3-8 tol52 5-8 and Nov. 149 1-4 to 149 3-4, were followed by a material setback all around. Oats displayed comparative strength Recent buying for government and export Interests was the main basis. After opening unchanged to 3-4 higher, the market reacted somewhat with corn. Provisions lacked support. Weakness of corn more than offset the firm tone of the hog market.
