Reported Activity of Armour

in the Session.

| Ranges were narrow and speculation was
light in the local grain market yesterday
| Attempts were made to scare the shorts by
stories of a bull clique in Chicago. This
caused some buying. but certainly not as
much as the circulators of the report eN'
pected. The real bullish indication was
freezing weather over nearly all sections OF
the wheat belt. In some cases the freeze
followed closed after a thaw. John Thyson,
who represented Thomas A. Cleage in the
recent corn deal. was a heavy buyer in the
last hour. .

was little outside speculative interest. Sta
1lsucal reports favored the buying side;
The cash market was again strong. and
there wa good occasional professional buy

change will probably call a meeting to
which the business and professional men Of
Belleville will be invited so that the MEM
bers of the exchange can lay before them
their side of the present builders strike
which has caused much Inconvenience in
Bellevilie.
II is thought probable that the meeting
will be held early next week. The strike. or
rather a lockout on the part of the build srs.
was brought about through a refusal on
the part of the brick wagon drivers and the
hod carriers to handle certain brands of
ornamental brick which were manufacturer
in nonunion brick Yards.
