cent over December Changed sentiment
has been the factor and the failure of the
big shorts in the market has unquestion-
ably been the influence with most of the
trade St. Louis led in the buying and its
market is at a premium tonight over Chi
cago, although it has been at a discount
for weeks. 1t reports smaller receipts and
a better demand. Toledo had only eighteen
cars today. Liverpool was 3-S to 5-Sd high
er and reported there was wheat there to
cover for the interest, which had been
plunging on the short side everywhere.
Clearances were Coz, 600 bushels. Today's
strength was not at all a matter of statis-
tics, and not particularly matter of de-
mand. 1t was mere sentiment.
Corn was strong with a larger trade and
an improved cash tone. Prices advanced
3-S@5-Sc, and closed at the top. Sales from
here were about 400 900 bushels. Receipts
were 1855 cars. with 500 for tomorrow. Ar
gentine shipments were over 1900, 900 bush
els. Liverpool was 1-SG12d higher. Sea-
board clearances were 100000 bushels Corn
led the wheat early, but at the close the
coarse grain was in turn helped by the
wheat There is a decided broadening of
the trade.
Oats were up with the other grains. The
last prices were 3-S@5-Sc over Thursday.
There was a large cash business done from
here. There was very vigorous buying by
the local interest which is largely long on
May. Receipts were 236 cars, with 325
for tomorrow. Clearances were 254, 900
bushels.
Provisions were moderately higher most
of the day and closed firm with part of the
improvement held. There was an increased
trade in January product. Commission
houses bought and packers sold. Export
ers bought lard. The cash demand was
good, particularly for lard.

trade much better. with indications of an
active demand from manufacturers for an
indefinite period. and the Certainty of q
much smaller crop than last year. it is
reasonable TO expect q higher market.
Some rampant bulls are calculating two
cents or more advance in the long run.
Conservative people, however, look for no
great or permanent squirt. The market is
comparatively speaking yet cropping in the
dark as to crop conditions Frequent ups
and downs will probably be the rule for
a time.
A downward movement OF three TO five
points was recorded in the first sales today
which was clearly traceable TO the Liver
pool manipulations. In that market the
start was feeble, but later there were higher
prices.
