There was good buylnsr of corn today which rallied the market after a resumption of general selling by commission houses, due to fresh Intimation that tho food adm'nls tratlon Is against further enhancement of food costs. On tho decline, the pressure decreased finally to a small volume and after some hesitation the tone became steadier. It was nssertcd that Important pack ers were trying; to reach an agreement as to a maximum price at which packers would buy hogs,. Corn In this coun try Is moving slowly, rtouils are muddy and farmers declare that It is more profitable to feed than to market it at present prices. Oats nlso became steadier after they had been weaker under genernl selling by commission houses nnd cash firms. Short coiered freely. Trade was mod erately active. Offerings from the coun try continued light. There was talk of a better demand In the South, but there waB lltte Inquiry from the East or from exporters.
