CATTLE-This week is practically
repetition Of the past month in the cattle
alleys, except that receipts have not been
SO heavy. There has been the usual heavy
run of common stock cattle, and this has
dragged, as usual, until the good cattle
have been disposed Of and then sold at
low prices. The good quality stockers
and feeders have brought fully steady
prices, and yearling stuff has been in
splendid demand. Good quality feeders
have sold readily, while the rough, heavy
feeders have dragged a little, but still
have sold at fairly good prices. In some
cases the stock heifers have sold a little
higher, but the bulk has sold around S..
Steer calves were dragging a little today,
but there has been a fair demand all
week for the stock calves, with the heifers
going at 1925 and the steers at $425. The
common stock cattle have been disposed
of at whatever figure has been obtain
able, and, in some cases, these figures
have been very low There has been no
quotable change so far as the butcher
cattle are concerned. The demand has
been good all week for all kinds, although
the bulk of the offerings have been cows
and heifers. Today fair dry-fed steers

at the close 14c and oats sc higher. Pro-
visions closed steady at 212c lower
The wheat market opened with show
Of strength derived from the lightness Of
Northwest receipts, May being bqAc
better than yesterdays close at 69A@
693sc Shorts were early buyers, and
commission houses expected a plentitude
of country orders, mainly from the
Northwest. Talk of a better export in
Quiry 1oated around, a decrease In the
visible was predicted for this week and
Argentina reported rains in the midst of
harvest operations, all Of which acted as
an Incentive to buy. On the advance,
which carried May to. 701sc, nearly 1c
over yesterday, trading was active, but
lost its animation towards the close,
when the market eased off on profit
taking and selling against calls, above
which. mark the price foated most of
the time. May eased off to 6934c, at which
it closed, 16@5sc better than yesterday.
New York reported 16 loads taken for
export. Primary receipts were $4,000 bu,
against 1,470,100 last year. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported 499 cars, compared
with 918 year ago. Local receipts were
1873 cars rs of which were graded con-
tract. Atlantic port clearances in wheat
and -four were equal to Gil, 900 bu.
Corn ruled firm, strengthened primari-
~ by light receipts, but to a degree by
wheat, the fluctuations of which market
1t followed in a small way. Trade was
dull throughout the session. Receivers
generally reported freer country offerings
New York asserted export business to the

Receipts, 206 cars. May opened a shade
up at 32as@3212c; ranged from 323sc to
$3.50, and closed &c better, at 325sc.
Oats. were steady and quiet to higher
with other grains. Receipts, 147 cars,
were light and the shipping demand slow.
The market was largely a scalping one
and the range narrow in consequence.
May sold from 23Ac to 242sc and closed
1se higher, at 241sc.
Provisions were steady and the market
dull most of the time. Receipts of hogs
over expectations and lower prices for
the same, coupled with some selling by
packers, were the causes for the falling
off in the price, but the market held
steady at the decline, in sympathy with
grain. May pork sold from 50. 1893 7712
to $9.S715, closing 212c under yesterday, at
$3.50; May lard ranged from S545 to SIS 4715,
