CHICAGO, March 9.—Despite anxiety expressed in some quarters as to reports of alarming war complica- tions in Europe, grain prices under- went new downturns early today. “: Cables indicated that markets abroad were not disturbed. Opening %-14 cent lower. May, 96a96%, Chicago wheat declined further. Corn started -3 off; May, 81%2a 813, and subsequently altered little. Predictions of rain or snow in do- mestic wheat territory more than counterbalanced word of dust storms in the West and Northwest, and were extending into Canada. At one stage weakness of the New York stock mar- ket led to considerable selling of grains. As a consequence wheat and corn both soon showed a setback of more than a cent a bushel, compared with yesterday's finish. A lack of sustained buying power in the wheat market drew comment. It was asserted, however, that milling in- terests were absorbing offerings suf- ficiently to prevent greater price weakness, even though the demand from this source appeared to be mainly to meet immediate needs. Bulls em- phasized continued lightness of do- mestic receipts of wheat, rapidly diminishing supplies and uncertainty of the crop outlook. Corn and oats took their cue largely from wheat. Provisions declined with grains, notwithstanding steadiness of the hog market. I.lmnol Grain Prices. LIVERFOOL. March 9 (7.—Wheat, fu- tures closed lrrelulu Prev. High, la' Close.
