PROVISIONS,

TUE Chicago Times says packing operations ut
Chicago continue To be confined within rather
narrow limits Two houses have rcopcned for the
summer trade but are cutting only II few hogs
Arrivals of hogs are moderate while the quality
Is hardly up TO the average but shippers con
tinue free buyers, and compel packers To use
considerable discretion In their purchases The
hogs are generally light In weight, and the man.
ufacturc In consequence is limited largely To the
lighter descriptions Of meats. Some little prime
mess and extra prime pork Is being produced, but
only small amounts. The lard yield Is reported us
comparatively small. At other points In the
west packing operations.aro somewhat restricted
by virtue of relatively small receipts Of hogs,
and We are generally little short of last season
