The past week has been much a repeti-
ton of the previous. Prices have varied
very little either here or at other Western
points. Packers continue to control the
market; Out of fresh receipts of 6I.I.9
hogs, they got over $1,000 OF them. With
practically no outside competition and good
arrivals, they kept prices well in hand and
had everything their own way. But. if
values have been kept low here. so have
they at other Western points. Since the
opening OF the current week. receipts have
been lighter than expected. and the mar
ket, stronger than for some time. and the
bulk of sales have been as high here as
In Chicago. and yesterday Were a little
higher. All things considered, Kansas City
to-day is the highest market in the West.
The receipts for the week were nearly 20
600 greater than the same week last year,
Yet the bulk of sales yesterday was 15c per
cwt. higher than the corresponding day
a year ago. so the market is not so bad
as it appears. Tn extreme range yester-
day was 2.5013 so: bulk of sales, $685. 5;

Oats.

With higher prices for corn the past
week and a stronger speculative market
there has been a better feeling since our
last review: and, in the face of better re-
ceipts, prices have held up very well, but
the demand continues largely of local char
acter. There is but little investment buy
ing and the order trade continues light.
The visible supply last week made a de-
crease OF l.6ll. yo bushels. and a good eX-
port movement at the seaboard Is report

more healthy. but at the same time OPP
