LARGE EXPORTS OF MEATS.
Fo rthe four months ending March :,
1895 the exports of meats from the Unlte1
States were especially .Arge, having pre-
viousIy been equaled for the like period IN
only two instances, for four months end
ing March l. 1881, and 1879. This carrier
large movement was prior to the french
Introduction against American meats. Inc
lard movement for the four winter
months was never previously so large
as last vear-the total meats and lard eX-
ceedine the comparative totals Of 1873 and
1881. For this season the indications are
that in both meats and lard there Will De
some increase for the four months ending
March ! in comparison with the high rec

ending February l there is shown IN IN
crease of 100000 pounds OF meats and

WHAT OF THE PROVISION MARKET?
Within three weeks pork has declined
over 81 a barrel. lard IS cents per cwt, and
ribs 47lac Hogs have declined abou' @Yc
per cwt from the top. The provision pit IS
trying 70 make out whether the May
liquidation has set in. That ought not 20
be under way before March or April; Dat
the market started 10 advance month
earlier than expected and perhaps the
sDring reaction has set in ahead of the
calendar players" There IS u fair de-
mand for meats, as good as is TO be eN-
pected at this season of the year; the
demand for lard is not usually 1eavy
now. There has been plenty Of hogs and
stocks are large. But provisions are as
cheap relatively as anything, and ii the
doctrine of higher prices has any merit I
there should not be much left for the
present on the short Side. The outcome
viii depend most on corn. The provision
speculation is fairly broad. although not
what it was in January. Hog receipts, in
the orde rof things should fall off con-
siderably in March. The south, with cot
TON prices up so, is likely TO be a good
BUYER beginning next month. The m /
