COLDER WEATHER ON WAY
Oats Advance Sharply at Chicago
Owing to Shortage of Supplies and
Chance of Reduced Movement.
Inquiry From Exporters.
CHICAGO, Jan. 80. Prospect, of a new
tie-up of tho raliroad. west of Chicago
hardened the corn market today after
temporary sag, due to better weather here
than had been looked for. Price, closed
firm at the same as yesterday's finish to
l'.c higher, with Starch (1.27 and May
(1.254 et 1.25 H. Oats gained He to lVa
and provisions 20 to 45c.
At first sunny skle. and the compara-
tlvely mild temperature In Chicago gave
slight advantage to tho hears in corn.
Forecasts, however, soon appeared which
made more anow and cold a virtual cer
talnty. Beside, complaints of car scarcity
continued. Nevertheless the market re
mained easy until detailed reports be--an
to be circulated telling of severe low tern
peraturea In Iowa and of snow there drift
Ing badly. Then the prospect that eastward
progrosa of the storm would, bring about
more or less complete traffic blockades all
tho way to thl city turned prices in favor
of the bulla.
Shortage of Immediate supplies, together
with chance, of further tightening of con
dltlons. had much to do with hoisting the
value of oats. There was aom seaboard
Inauiry.
A big failing on in nog arrivals niteo
provisions. In addition, it wa. .aid, there
had been liberal buying for export.
