wheat, 81 &c for corn, $1O.771s for pork,
; and $1.971s for lard.
During the session of the board only a
fair business was transacted in wheat.
! Early in the day the market was weak and
/ 40 lower, but rallied steady Bc per
bushsl under good speculative demand,
! later declined 1sc, rallied again, and fin
! ally closed about 4 o higher than yester-
day. The receipts were smaller, and for
eign advices quoted frmer feeling for
spot wheat and quite slow market for
cargoes to arrive.s
The -four market is by no means active,
aud the feeling in the trade was quiet
enc. Still there was more looking after
stock and better prospect is predicted by
the trade, with the home trade picking up
the better takers and fancy branks and
exports were bidding for low to good
stock and firm asking prices to prevent
business. Bran and all mill stuffs in light
stocks and doing well.
Corn fairly active and feeling unsettled.
At the opening there was strong pressure
to sell, influenced by reports which pre-
dicted warmer weather, and also owning to
the fact that the frosts predicted for last
night did not OCCUR. The market opened
unsettled and 15@58c lower. but quickly
recovered and rallied 1@118c above inside
prices, then eased off 10, followed by a
stronger feeling, and finally closed about
1sc higher than yesterday. The receipts
were smaller, and market advices from
other places quoted a firm feeling. On
the curb later there was quite a stifening
up and in some instances 10 higher was
paid.
Oats firm, and there was 4@1sc ad-
vance. There was a good cash demand.
Local buyers and shippers both bought
quite freely; and receivers were enable to
dispose of consignments in satisfactory
manner. The speculative market was
also firm. The receipts during the week
have not been up to expectations, while
the shipments have been liberal. Stocks,
if not much reduced, have not at least in
creased. These facts have rather checked
the desire to sell, while at the same time
some little demand has existed from shorts,
and for a day or two the market has been
firm.
Rye firm, and there was 15@1c advance.
4 good speculative demand existed, and
there was desire manifested by the shorts
TO cover. No shipping demand of conse-
quence existed, but during the past few.
days quite liberal quantity of rye has
been taken for export.
Barley dull as usual. On the regular
market no business of consequence was
done. Former prices were obtainable all
round, but for several days no consign-
ments have gone in store. The better
grades of sample lots were quite firm, and
sales readily effected. The market was
little better, the effect of smaller arrivals.
Low grades, however, continue dull and IN
improved.
The trading in the aggregate was COM
paratively light in the market for hog pro-
ducts. Spectators, either outside er local,
were not inclined to do much trading, and
shippers were favored with full orders.
Foreign advices showed no material
change, and eastern markets
were comparatively steady. The re-
ceipts of product were light and shipments
of all kinds quite large. During the early
part of the session the feeling was easy
and slightly reduced prices accepted, but
during the latter part the market was
stronger in general way and the decline
was recovered.
Only moderate business was reported
in the market for mess pork. Speculative
trading was comparatively light, and the
shipping demand meagre. Prices were
weak at 5000 lower early, but rallied
5000 and ruled comparatively steady to
the close.
The inquiry for lard was moderate and
offerings only fair. Trading in the aggre-
gate was smaller than usual. Prices
averaged a little lower, but on the
whole range exhibited little change
from those current. Yesterday shipping in
quiry fair. Curb trading in both pork
and lard was at slightly improved values.
At the yards the market for cattle was
moderately eotive and as receipts were
light prices for COWS, feeders, butchers,
and fair steers ruled steady at about yes
terday's figures. There were no choice or
extra grades received, and the market was
entirely nominal. Hogs are again easier.
There was moderately active market for
light packing and lingering grades, and
prices were steady and unchanged from
yesterday, heavy packing and shipping
grades ruled weak, and decline OF so
10c was submitted to. Shippers we're the
principal purchasers.
