the question now agitating the Stock
Exchange is regarding the delegation
from the Union Stock yards to the big
live stock convention to he held at Wood
ward O. T. next week. This Is now
an annual affair at this enterprising city
of the plains. and among the most sue
Cessful anywhere held. and of the great
est Importance to Wichita and this mar
ket. Other markets and stock points will
send large delegations in special Pullmans
and it is hoped some definite action will
% taken for this point
Liberal shipments of meats and dimin-
tshng receipts of hogs strengthened pro-
Visions. Pork and ribs were lower at the
start. but buying by outsiders through
commission houses started an upturr.
May pork opened 2IzG5 cents lower at
Sl0e212 al0o5. and rose to Sl0.15d1017lz
May lard began 2l2 cents higher at $. 72l5.
and advanced TO S5.75a5.Ula. May ribs
started oIe cents down, at 500 and ad-
vanced to S5.0712. Lard closed up 10 cents
and ribs cents up

ago: sheep increased 200, while hogs IN
creased about 1900. For the week Kan
sas City shows a gain of $500 cattle, ana
loss of 1920 hogs and 1850 sheep, COM
pared to a year ago. Chicago decreased
LOO cattle and gained 10, 400 hogs and $500

sheep, and lost 800 hogs. ST. Louis lost
6,lOO cattle, and gained 5000 hogs and 300

Price Current: Considerable specula tive
interest has been shown in hog products,
and values improved in the early portion
of the week, but close at about he same
position as week ago. Realizing sales
and lower grain markets had SOME IL
f1uence in bringing about the reaction.
The distributive trade continues very
good, in fact appears 10 reflect a scme-

HOGS F|VE LOVER
Light Supply and Quality
Very Poor.
BULK S3.40 TO $3.45
Fair Supply Mixed Cattle,
Few Sales.

The Wichita hog market yesterday was
cents lower along with all the other
1--we stock centers. 1t was an off day for
hogs everywhere. both in prices paid,
quality and receipts. On the local market
the offerings were few and scattered all
through the day. The first sale on the
opening was a load of medium weight
lar hogs from Oklahoma and were soon
disposed OF. Then came along the hand
1uIl OF local and wagon stock. but this
branch was likewise light in run and not
over tempting in grade. Later some car
lodos were recovered Of mixed cattle and
Aoss ana the hogs of these consignments
were soon disposed Of some of them first
requiring sorting. The quality of all the
STOCK OF hogs on sale was generally oui.e
poor. There were no hogs anywhere near
Eood on the market. What there was
were easily sold and the best prices paid
LOT them IN conformity with the other
markets everywhere and the quality Of
SOCK. Though the day was light in it
SeII, II was heavier as compared with
otner days Of late. The receipts were
ABOUT the same as Monday of the week
previous and considerably better than
SATURDAY The shippers who arrive give
generally very good reports as to the
marketable hogs now in the country. and
most Of them only awaiting more favora-
Die shipping weather to get them in. The
severe weather at all sections where hogs
are raised has materially depleted the re-
celpts at all points, and this market has
held Its own comparatively very well The
shippers yesterday, with the exception of
the Oklahoma load, were near by dealers
VINO can get their hogs on the market in a
Few hours. The demand yesterday was
as firm as ever. but the light run and the
inferior quality had a sort Of wet blanket
eHect on any enthusiasm which could
De aroused. The weight yesterday was
considerably under the other two conpar-
ing days. There were lights plentifuIlv
sprlnkled in among a small line Of heay-
Ter hogs. but the latter were hardly rood
enough IN grade to raise the average
9uaiIty for the day. as some of the light
Hogs were the best, and one car averaging
~ pounds, or rather part of a car re-
celVed top prices. The few wagon hogs
were mostly extra light also. and none
anything AT all especially attractive The
business was done up fairly early. and
~ IS hoped today will see a better line of
Hogs on sale, and more of them.

forenoon the market ruled more or less
irregular. with the scope OF ffucuustl1n

row range. Although statistical ana other
domestic influences were generally OF a
buliSh character. the English and @oljti-
cal news was Of disquieting nature. and
led TO marked hesitation in boch bull ard

shown had q reassuring effect upon the
