MARKETS

WAGNER GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO. Dec. 5. Today's sentiment Indicates realization on all bulges. The forecast for larger corn receipts and the necessity of quickly ending the coal strike sits on the market at the moment. Beyond these facters there is little chance of any serious piling up of corn supplies until January. For the week-end there are indications of manufacturers being out of the cash market and this suggests sales after bulges.- Oats bulls count on the Mexican situation as a sustaining oats factor. Cash corn was two to four cents lower. The foreign credit situation also weighs on provisions throughout the west. Lard, pork and rib stocks are 25 per cent below a liberal Dec. 1 total. In brief, oats sentiment is firm, whereas corn news may bring moderate reactions. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 Union National Bank Bulld- , Ing. Phone 1720.
