A very fair market was had yesterday.
The receipts were better than for some
days, but little stronger feeling In the
speculative market encouraged buyers and
they, made very good purchases, paying
much the same price as on Saturday
Cables came in little lower and there was
an increase on ocean passage Of 1850, 900
bushels, and the visible supply statement
showed an increase OF 302,0 900 bushels which
was bearish, but damage reports from east
OF the Mississippi river encouraged q
stronger speculative feeling, which enabled
holders to maintain a steady cash market
here. No. hard sold 697c over test; No. 8
hard 7qSc over test, and No, hard SGlOc
over.

The market showed little more life yes
terday but while there was freer trading,
prices showed no improvement The ele-
vator men, as well as local feed dealers,
made fair purchases The visible supply
statement showed an increase OF only 1000
bushels, which encouraged buyers, but
while they were more willing to take hold
than on Saturday they refused to advance
prices. White was perhaps hardly so firm,
and demand for II less urgent than on Sat
urday.
