cefpts to-day were 5 cars Western and a

cars are due Thursday, which will wind up
the receipts of the week. Demand il fairly

sum2tive channels on arrival at 1Isc on
fowls. 1Olsc on chickens. and nc on old
ROSTERS.
Turkeys not plenty and steady. Western
ducks brought soc. while q few Of the finest
Indiana geese brought N.62. Other classes
unchanged. Dressed poultry receipts to-day
were $3.50 packages. The available offer
ings of fresh killed fowls are light, and indi-
cations point to light supplies in transit
for later in the week.
The offerings are mostly from the South
west and rarely show quality to exceed
l0c, but prime conditioned dry-picked fowls
are generally bringing 101c, while a few
pet marks of scalded fowls are reaching lie.
Fresh turkeys in light supply, and il ae-
sirable hens would bring lie and toms &c.
western capoEs are showing quite irregular
quality and selling at from 13Q131lzc on aver
age quality.
There is II moderate inquiry for frozenI
Hen turkeys are held up to 11hc, but
many are offered at lie, without attracting
buyers. Fowl are bringing 10c when
fancy, but most of the frozen fowls onered
are stock that was put away at this END
and urged at low prices.
Sales have been reported on a few carr
OF ~roasters at 12c for November packed, but
late packed Iowa chickens are offered az
10G1c1sc. Except for the slight shading N
frozen stock. prices are still without
change.

HoGS-The market opened with all conditions
faroring sellers and they started out with a
determination of forcing the market up. Pack
ers We're not inclined to pay higher prices. and
consequently trading was slow at the start.
butchers and Eastern order buyers were in the
market and anxious for hogs: this forced the
packers in. line and soon trading was active.
The first few sales were only about &c higher
than Tuesday but 1t was not long before the
general market was called 10c higher and the
top reached S. per 100 lbs. making the marke:
the highest sinoe Sept. 26, 1891. when the ton
was Sc. and the bulk OF the sales went at 35.HO
to S5.,5.
When the market opened the supply on sale
was small and the total for the day was only
moderate. The market continued strong to the
.icse and the clearance was good with the de-
mand ursatisfied.

Provisions.
Small receipts of hogs and higher prices
for them gave the tone to the provision
market, where a further rise occurred, and
consequently a fresh high record for the
season. Pork was wanted. and there was
none on the market when there were
bids. 1t only came out when buyers
became very urgent and each fresh purcnase
had to be &c or 1oc higher than the one rie-
yious until 60c had been added TO Tuesdays

vailing as the market closed, which was
