CHICAGO.


Inle60n and dealers have expressed
- great faith in the future of
prices. many announcing their intention
to hold their supplies until spring, when
the scarcity would be marked and quota
tons reach a more profitable point. Spec
ulative operators, as usual, anticipated
this tendency OF legitimate business and
inaugurated a vigorous campaign. The
upward movement of option prices culmi-
mated when May deliveries at this city
commanded S32 cents. The advance was
too fast and the market carried beyond
legitimacy by the feyerish speculative
buying. The reaction, although sharp, as
generally follows such spasms of buying,
has left the trade in an unsettled cohdi-
ton.
The receipts are letting up and the hig
Northwestern movement, which has been
the bear influence for months, has seen
its best, for the present at least. Re
ceipts last week were 4,519 cars, a de-
crease of 500 cars from the previous
week, and compare with 3,077 cars last
year. The winter wheat movement is
light, and it will take an advance above
Soc to enlarge farmers deliveries. Stocks
are piling up too rapidly for the bulls to
have an easy time in advancing prices
above soc and holding them. The worlds
supply increased 100000 bushels last
month, which is more than the ave. age.
The high point on the corn crop, 69A
cents for May, was followed by a drop
to 657sc or 33sc, and by reaction to
6sHc. with the close at 6714c to 67asc, a
net loss of 15sc for the week. Prices
are nearly double last years. Hogs are
being marketed freely at all Western
points, and arrivals last week were 643,-
600. against 65S,000 the previous week
and compared with $4,000 last year. Re
ceipts here were $4,000. The quality is
poor and has decreased steadily for a
month. The best prices of the season
for futures were made the past week,
May pork touching $lT.45.
