CHICAGO. May 17.-Grain traders found
little OF interest in the closing session

hciently marked to induce good specula-

haggled idly, all DAY, and closed a shade

There was both weak and strong spots
in wheat during the morning, but, the ad,

Conditions in corn were similar to those
in wheat, weather fair, prospects of larger
receipts, etc. The early market was fairly
steady, but Kansas City and st. Louis
turned weak late and CAV as the reason
the much freer offerings from the coun-
try. Acceptances OF Chicago bids by the
country were bearish. July sold dow

The good to choice grades OF cows and
heifers are also higher than they were a
week ago, and the kinds that sell from
$5.16 up are just about as high as they
have been at any time this year. The
medium grades and amer have sold
rattle slowly. and while they are a little
higher than they were a week ago, stll
they are not back TO where they were
before the break. The market on such
kinds is so uneven that It is Impossible
to tell Just how much prices have ad-
vanced during the week. Another factor
which Is beginning to hurt the. sale of the
medium to common grades Is the fact that
buyers are looking Tor the hrst signs. of
grass. Pastures are now In good condition,
so that the impression Is that stock will
soon begin to arrive, which. will show the
J effects OF grass and on such kinds buyers
1 are. OF course, very bearish: Commission
men are eautioning their shippers to be
very careful about buying and shipping
stock that has been on grass long enough
to show the effects. =,

Veals are now selling as high as 500.
Stockers and feeders have been in light
supply all the week, and as the rains I'm
proved the demand from the country prices
have advanced to some extent. In some
cases sales have been made that looked
easily 15d25c higher, but as a rule the mar
Net Is not much over l09i5c higher for the
week. The greatest advance was, of course
on the better grades. At the close of the
week there are very few stock cattle OF
any kind left in the yards. Representative

Of the market was not made. For the
week a decrease is noted, both as compared
with last week and also with last year.
So far as the better grades are concerned
the market has been in good shape and the
tendency of prices has been upward. both
on lambs and on sheep. The commoner
kinds, though, were neglected and hard to
dispose of. II anything prices are a little
lower than they were a week ago on the
inferior grades. II Is evident that packers
are anxious for good stuff, but the common
kinds they do not care for.
