Pit Believes Illinois Regulation Will Fail
Chicago officials of the Chicago Board of Trade say a regulation bill before the Illinois legislature will fail. They claim sentiment has shifted against the measure after farmer demonstrations. The bill, already passed by the senate, could become law if the house approves and Governor Len Small signs it. A separate futures trading bill faces the same senate path. If the first bill passes, traders fear the Chicago grain market could collapse and wheat operations shift to Minneapolis Kansas City Milwaukee Omaha and other western markets.
