The rallies in wheat were very fee- ble. ‘Liquidation set in with support lacking and a heavy undertone soon developed. The close was weak 2\c to 3% lower with March $1.52 to $1.52% and May $1.42 to.$1.42%. Corn reflected the action in wheat, trade being light. After starting un- changed to % cent lower with May 67 to 67%@c, the market. rallied slightly and held within a narrovy range. Corn broke with wheat but ouying against bids checked the declines. The close was nervous, 4@%c to Ic low- er, with May 66%c to 66%c. Oats were in sympathy with other cereals, starting unchanged to %e lower, with May 41% to 41%c and hovering about that figure.
