WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.

CATTLE--The receipts thus far this
week have been very fair Butcher stuff is
IN IN good demand; but the decline in the
chicago market has caused buyers to
mold out for lower prices. The light re-
celpts or yesterday caused a good clear
ance and we think that today prices will
be maintained during the balance of the
that are in good marketable condition
can be marketed to better advantage now
than later on.o
There has been more inquiry for heavy
Ieeoers, and prospects look stronger on
medium weights. The market Is fully
leg!5c higher, with buyers here from both
north and south. Light weight cattle
70 choice quality finds a ready buyer.
Stock heifers and icalves are selling at
strong prices, with not enough to meet
the demand.
Cows with young calves, and springers
OF good quality are selling at $50 to $40
per head. Common stuff of this class is
very slow sale. Bulls are selling steady
and veal calves are Arm.
HOGS-The market yesterday was &c
lower. The receipts were only fair and
1ne quality ran from common to choice.
me butchers sold at a range Of $500
3.62R, with the bulk going at $3571a@3 60
SHEEP-Good sheep and lambs are in
demand at strong prices. The run yester-
day was fairly heavy, but most Of the
thing offered was sold quickly at good
prices. Choice fat lambs will bring S. 25
ga: 4o and medium to good ones will sell
better than S. Good fat wethers will
sell for S4@425, and good quality mixed
ewes and wethers, $4@450 The good
quality stuff finds ready buyers. Very
truly yours, FITCH & CO.

CHICAGO, March 29-Damage of an al
legged narrowing description to winter
wheat set the trade in commotion to-
day, adding 2ssc to the value of May
visions benefited by the improvement
being sc in corn, AQ3sc in oats and 10c
in pork. TIC in lard and 5S in ribs.
Wheat spectators gave fresh turn to
the Kaleidoscope at the opening, and what
looked black and forbidding at the close
yesterday had again a rainbow appear
ance when business commenced May
opened l2Gj3sc higher. at from 7ll5 down
to 7l2sc: touched 71i4c for a moment, and
then began to rise The Liverpool market
was firm. instead of being as expected,
weak. The strength abroad was not
nearly so powerful a factor, however, as
the home news about damage to winter
wheat Damage reports were general,
coming from all quarters where winter
wheat is grown. The conviction forced
itself upon many skeptics that the
amount of injury done by the unfavorable
winter was greater than anything of the
kind in number of years and much
heavier than could be compensated for
by increased acreage. Every countryman
who had an acquaintance In the commits
sion business appeared to consider it Il
duty to report wholesale destruction to
crops. The ordinary market information
relative to receipts and shipments did not
receive much attention. May conse-
quently kept rising from 1Ac until the
price reached 7212c. AT that point some
realizing resulted In a slight reaction.
Chicago got 40 cars, 2 grading contract;
Minneapolis and Duluth received 453 car
loads compared with 33S the same day
year ago The total of Western primary
markets was about the same as last year,
and Atlantic port clearances of wheat
and -four were light. The market became
very strong in the last hour of the ses-
sion. and rose rapidly from around 723sc
for May to 1850, closing at 7SAc July
made rapid strides to overtake May and
all but caught up at the end. They were
1sc apart at the close, July leaving off
worth 731sc.
Corn followed the advancing wheat
market with APPARENT reluctance during
the first half of the session. but after that
the upward tendency was not so persist
emily opposed by the bears and made
more rapid progress. The threatened late
ness of the planting season was about
the only Independent reason for strength
in corn. Receipts, 142 cars May opened
A@2sc higher. at 35s4 G35Ac, weakened to
355sc, then advanced to 363sc, the closing
figure.
Oats We're firm and higher, In sympathy
with the other grains The spread be-
tween May and July was narrowed 40
sc, owing to delayed seeding. Receipts,
131 cars. May began 1sc up, at 26ss@26s4c,
and rose to 267sc at the close.
Provisions ruled quiet but strong at a
moderate advance. The firmness was with
grains. May pork started sc higher, at
ss.1712; sold off to $9.121s, improved to
s9.25. and closed at So 221s The range in
lard and ribs was narrow

The cattle market was dull and draggy
on account of the heavy run of COM
mon cattle. The yards are flooded with
oH-colored and common stuff and sales
men find it hard to dispose of it, even at
a heavy sacrifice. Butcher stuff was
scarse and only few scattering head
were offered that were better than COM
mon In quality. The medium to good
stun brought good prices. Good cattle
round buyers at fair prices. The hog
market opened weak to &C lower and
ruled steady at the decline throughout
the day. The range in butchers was

ment over b. r. 7. and good buying also

lar line of speculative shares has not ma
terially improved and the earnings of
some of the roads were unsatisfactory
In B. r. T. we see most pronounced man

at these quotations and recognizing the
low rate of earnings rather dangerous. In
Metropolitan we see good strength and
the shares are not dear, If they carry
through the underground plan, otherwise
the shares would seem to us pretty well
from the best of sources and the dividend
will probably be at 6 per cent rate in
June. We do not think any immediate
steps will be taken beyond this to add to
the value of the shares, but the earnings
are at the rate of 10 per cent. We under
stand that heavy sales by insiders of
Continental Tobacco have been made and
that Philadelphia has bought enormously.
We judge from all we can gather that
the shares are high enough. American
