WEEKLY MARKET LETTER

lower prices. The declines were severe
here, but they were even worse at 9TH
er points, so that the lower prices were
undoubtedly warranted. During the
past two days there has been slight
reaction, but it is generally believed
that the high time in the hog market
is now, to a certainty, thing of the
past. Should receipts increase there is
but little question but that prices
would go still further down. The pack
ing season is close at hand, and, to use
the words of well informed man,
hogs cannot be, packed at present
prices.
SHEEP-Receipts have been heavy,
with a large percentage Of the stuff
coming from the. West, and only
part offered for sale at this point. The
demand continues good for all kinds.
Ewes are selling little lower than the
high time Of last week, but are NOV
ing readily. Lambs and wethers are
firm and active. Good quality stock
and feeding stuff finds ready sale at
steady prices.

CHICAGO, Oct. 30.-Prices of both
grains and provisions were weak at the
opening today on the board of trade,
statistics being bearish. but better tone
developed during the day, and December
wheat closed unchanged, December corn
nc higher and oats a shade lower. Jan
uary provisions closed 27sc higher.
wheat was a puzzle to many traders
today, and the pit crowd was divided
Some early buyers turned sellers later in
the day, while some who sold early were
anxious to get back their holdings toward
the close. The opening YVES easy on weak
cables, later receipts with an improve
ment in grading and a continuance of
liquidation by longs at the start, together
with free selling by locals which caused
q slight decline. The market received
good support however, and the good cash
demand was also an incentive to better
prices.
A report from Minneapolis stated that
half the surplus crop had already been
large part of the remainder. This was
also bull factor. There was fair buy
ing, during the latter half of the session,

cars, against 1,0S4 cars last week and 628
cars a year ago.
, Excellent weather was against corn,
and the easier feeling in wheat at the
start likewise helped keep prices down.
The volume Of business was light and
there was a noticeable absence OF any
great pressure to hquidate, although there
was some realizing early in the day. De-
cember was relatively the stronger month
and shorts covered freely late in the ses-
sion. The close was firm, with December
tween 1880 and 50Ac. Local receipts
were 1873 cars, with q cars of contract
grade.
Oats Are Depressed.
Fine weather was a depressing influence
in oats, and there was again considerable
selling pressure, with prices slightly
wheat and corn, and the close was steady.
December was a shade lower at 30@301ac,
after ranging between 30A @30ss 93O79c.
Local receipts were 258 cars.
Provisions opened weak on weakness
in hogs at the yards, but the opening loss
was soon regained on a good demand
from local traders. Offerings were we'll

WILL MEET MONDAY
The Delegate Convention VIII No Doubt
Call the Strike on and the Men
win Return to Work Before
the Last Of Next Week.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, DC. 1.-THE ex-
ecutive boards of the three anthracite
districts of the United Mine Workers
of America in join session Thursday
unanimously decided to recommend to
a delegate convention of striking min
ers to reco cmfw lwtlwtw lwtlwtlw
ers the acceptance of the arbitration
proposition submitted by the president
Of the United States and ii is reason
ably certain the advice will be fol
lowed and the great struggle be
brought 10 a close.
The convention will meet in this
city Monday morning. and it is the
hope and belief of officers of the
union that the mining of coal will be
resumed before the close of next
week after a suspension of more
than five months.
The citizens of the entire region are
much elated that the strife is almsot
over, because business in the coal
fields has been practically paralyZed
since the strike began,
