December opened %@%c to a shade higher at 7i%@7i3c. shorts covering moderately, because cables did not in any way reflect the decline therein. The bulge met no support of any magnitude and consequently the market dropped heavily to 70%@70%c. Shorts had sold with such complete abandonment to their belief in heavy stocks and a slack demand that rumors that additional mills would reopen at Minneapolls, owing to a better demand for flour, sent them to cover. Under buying of this sort December rallied sharply to 7i%c. There was plenty of the cereal for sale on the ad- vance, and a reaction followed, December clos- Ing weak, %c under yesterday, at T1@713c.
