"The market had quite huoyart
tone most i the week, and p.iccs adj
vancod largely on ali articles; SO
largely. III fact, as to cause q reaction
; rs 4 natural sequence, which reaction
is assisted by thc weather, which 10.
day is too warm for curing meats. The
speculative demand has been the main
stay Of the market, and forced prices
Mp il the face Of 4 material decline in
Liverpool. The market also derives some
strength from the lighter average
weight Il the Hogs, and IS regards
Lard from the lighter average yield.
There has been 4 tair Corsumptiyc de-
mand for partly curei merits, and in
fact for nearly all articles, hut the
speculative transactions control prices.
To-day vas & decidedly weaker feeling
1t the opening. orders for con sumption
being light, and spectators having
withdrawn prices declined To about
the figures current Il week ago, but
holders were not disposed to press
stocks. aul a thcclose the market had
a firmar tone. especially as regards
Lard and Mes Pork. tor which there
is a speculative demand.

day; North Carolina Bacon sells at
