135, grade 100. Oats 179, grade 1874
Hogs-Chicago. $4,000; higher. Kan
sas City, 1910; Omaha, $500
London off coast quiet but steady on
passage nominally unchanged One
cargo sold. English country markets
quiet
Liverpool wheat quiet and steady,
futures easy, prices unchanged Corn
firm; futures a lower.
Paris wheat unchanged; -four to 10
lower.
Chicago-Following from Cincinnati
Price Current: Winter wheat informa-
ton quite irregular, general indication
unchanged. Spring wheat progressing
favorable. Corn crop in more assuring
position and promises WELL Oats returns
moderately more satisfactory. Late rains
reviving grass fields and pasture to some
extent but hay crop irrevocably short.
Chicago: Wheat looks heavy and
weak, but there is some good buying on
the weather bureaus prediction that
there will be light frost tonight in the
northwest Corn will be the next to make
a header. Provisions easier and rather
quiet, not much outside buying, and
feeling less duIlsh; offering moderate.
Frost is predicted for tonight in the
northwest but seems improbable, for it is
raining over the line west of North Da-
kota, and north of Minneapolis, even if
it should be cool enough, it is likely to
be cloudy over most of the northwest;
besides light frost would do no harm.
New York: The market was thought
to exhibit good deal of that stirred feel
ing" the absence of commission house
buying and the failure of the market te
hold the rally Monday, created some
what uneasy feeling in the mind of the
holders of stocks. They said the market,
instead of remaining strong as it natur-
ally should, SOLD much to the disappoint-
ment of the bear element
Chicago: Grain out of store-wheat
$4,000, corn 371,OO0, by canal, corn 5000,
Bar silver unchanged.
Berlin wheat closed three -fourths
marks migher.
New York: London market apathetic
this morning. There are good many
| factors in the present situation to cause
hesitancy. The rate cutting, the unfa-
vorable state of the uncertainty at which
the bond syndicate will sell exchange in
the future, and some complaints about
too much rain in the northwest all tend
to check bullish operations. The coal
stocks are the strongest features at the
opening. There is no news, but an i'm
preston seems to prevail that Mir Nor
gan is going to straighten out matters in
the coal trade.
