The government crop report, INDICATING a
crop of l 800. 0OO. 600 bushels. or JO.OVO.UD bush.
els more than recorded heretofore, caused
a bearish feeling in this market the past
week. but while there was a want or spec
ment. and receipts from the country the
lightest for many weeks, stock feederS pay
ing relatively more for corn on the farm
than the markets would justify for ship
ping, hence one influence Offset the other
and the cash market ruled unusually steady
the week. A very good feeding
demand was had from nearby sections and
there was some little export buying, but
while mixed showed fair life, white was
draggy and the demand for it of a limited
character. the yellow fever quarantine
south still interfering with its demand.
Wednesday brought no change. There was
a fair demand but no disposition on the
part of buyers to harden prices. Futures
were a little higher. but the improvement
ket here. BY sample on track here at

There were more in the past week than
for some time, and under the influence Of
the increased offerings the market ruled
prices. Oatmeal men, encouraged by the
WI range of values. were good buyers.
and feed dealers purchased with some free
dom, but the order demand was checked
by the advance of last week and bids from
the South are still coming in below hold
ers' views. Wednesday the receipts were
light and the best samples showed a little
more firmness and in good demand. and
low grades steady, and the offerings were
sold without trouble. By sample on track

There was very little of this grain in
he past week and. under the influence of
the very light offerings. values ruled high
er and what few cars arriving were placed
without trouble. Wednesday the market
showed further improvement. There were
a number of mill orders in and what few
samples on sale brought more money. By
