visions which Europe bought a the out
break of the war is about exhausted now

Chicago Times Herald: 1T is expected
the local stock of lard August l will show
total of about 100000 tierces, as COM
pared with 16S 600 tierces July l. Liberal
quantities of loose lard have been coming
in from the western packing points. There
has also been a big local production as
a result of the liberal hog receipts. For
a month the foreign demand has been
small, the exports of lard last week being
less than 5000, 900 pounds, compared with
y 600 900 pounds exported the correspond
ing week in 1897. There is a fairly good
domestic demand. Within week there
has been some revival of the foreign de-
mand There was a good export busi-
ness done yesterday by one OF the eX-
porting concerns. If the stock August l
here reaches 200. 900 tierces ii will mean
an increase of Sc, 600 tierces through July
compared with a decrease of $500 tlerces
in July last year. 1t is true though, that
lard at outside points is scarce. Milwau-
kee is cleaned out and last year at this
time Milwaukee had over 10000 tierces-
Hately says that he thinks the increase !
at Chicago will be fully offset when the
worlds stock is announced by decrease |
