Pork.

A number Of our contemporaries are spccula-
ting as to what the price of pork is to be this
fall.
The Quincy Wing says that about $500 hogs
were sold in tina, city on the 18th Sept. at 81 per
hundred.
The Terre Haute Journal says that contracts
have been entered into in that city for hogs at 81
Holders are asking 81 %, and there is a strong
probability Of their getting that price.
The Louisville Courier says that various con-
tracts for early delivery have beer made by pack
ers at that place, at prices ranging fom 81 25 to
$3.50.
At Madison, Ind. contracts have been made
for $500 hogs at 81 10 to 81 IS nett. A letter
from Cincinnati says:
''From all the information we can gain in rela-
ton to the quality and quantity Of hogs in this
section OF country and throughout the Great West.
there appears to be but one opinion, VIZ: That
the numbers will be equal 10 last season. and quail
ity far better, also that the price at which farm
ers and drovers anticipate our market will open,
to be dangerous and unsafe. Therefore, we look
upon the business in the prospective, as disastrous
to all who hold for high prices.
J.J. Bate 4 Co., Of St Lon,s, have contracted
for 1900 to be delivered on or before the LIST OF
December, at price equal to 81 80 nett. The
hogs are expected to weigh 200 lbs. or over. The
st Louis Intelligencer says "that No hogs can
not be had at the present stage Of the market un-
der 81 5o,a price at which majority Of the
packers and dealers are holding back"
