Wholesalers report good demand for
specialties. canned goods especially hold

its height. There has been no change in

2.-6attle-Recepts. 1000; shipments. 200. As
usual for time past, the consignments OF
cattle to-day included comparatively few that
were fully up to the standard in quality and
condition. and large proportion OF the arrivals
were cattle that were hardly good enough for
killers in quality fat. The market opened
with fair request for choice cattle of all kinds
but there really urgent competition and
with statesmen trying TO advance prices ii was
more less difficult to consummate sales
Finally the desirable cattle We're changing hands
fast could be expected. and in a general
way the market was reported steady as COM
pared with yesterday. Occasionally statesmen de-
clared that prices looked shade lower, and in
other instances they were quoted strong. There
a very slow outlet for cattle just little
better than feeders, and although late in selling
they finally brought comparatively steady prices.
The demand for feeding stock was probably not
quite as liberal as yesterday, but sales were
steady and calves generally were 25c lower
While prices to-day in a general way did not
represent much change in the market COM
pared with yesterday. sales, especially of the
choice stock. were hardly UP to the expectations
of statesmen, and there being outlet for a
number of low-grade cattle the trade in general
was. OF course. not entirely satisfactory. Quo

GRAIN MARKET STRONG
WHEAT, CORN AND OATS ALL CLOSE

An Urgent Demand Created by I'm

were all strong and active, September

&c and December of asc. September oats
were up 5sc and December $s@1ac. Pro-
visions were firm at an advance Of from
215c to 10c.
From nearly every section of the North
west came advices of a distinctly unfavora-
BILE character regarding weather and crop
conditions, and small receipts. all result
ing in an urgent demand from commission
houses and shorts. There was no selling
pressure until top prices were reached
SIC for September, after starting at SOssc
to SO3sc, and with December up to SSi4c
from the opening at SIC TO 2lsc AT that
point there was some selling for the out
side account and prices reacted some
what although there was no apparent
weakness. The close showed net gain
for September CT 1c at S1ssGS11sc, with De-
cember up 1Q11sc at S23sqSsc. Outside mar
kets were strong, with an improved cash
demand. Trading was very heavy, with
December business leading. Clearances of
wheat and flour were equal to 3lO,5OO blu.
Primary receipts were $4,000 blu, against
1,224,OOO bu last year. Minneapolis and Du-
luth reported receipts of 191 cars, which,
with local receipts of 1871 cars, of con-
tract grade, made a total for the three
points of 32S cars, against asa last week
and 945 year ago.
There was but little corn offered for sale
and anxious shorts ran prices up during
the first half hours trading and the adj
vance was well sustained. general de-
mand for all deliveries developed with To-
cal traders, scalpers and commission
houses buying on cool weather, shorts,
smaller receipts, strong cables and the
higher prices in wheat. Moderate selling
by people with profits near the close caused
a recession from the high points, but the
| close showed September &c up at 529sc, after
| starting at 51Sc to SIC and selling up to
| 529sc. December closed sc higher at 5l1kc
| and ranged between 512sc to 511sc and 517sc.
| Trading was heavy and excited. Local re-
ceipts were S63 cars, with % of contract
grade
| Trading in cats was of good volume and
there was a strong tone to the market. Lo-
| Gals bought early, but sold on early
| advance, causing small reaction. General
| liquidation, which has continued for some
| days, ceased and the sentiment was more
| bullish on the meager country offerings.
September closed sc higher at 351ec and
December ssQ1ec better at 1854 Q3e?sc. having
| sold up from CSC and 36Rc respectively. Lo-
| cal receipts were S. cars.

Hogs-Receipts, $500: shipments. $500. The
quality generally continues satisfactory, but the
standard is probably not quite high that
represented a short time ago. Most of the hogs
coming good-weight grades, and there Is
rather a scarcity Of fancy light weights. The
market opened with all buyers in the field. and
under the influence of fair competition, the trad
ing was reasonably active at prices for the most
part the same as those prevailing at the close
yesterday. Different statesmen quoted the mar
ket &c to 10c lower than yesterday morning
others &c lower than yesterdays average and
the majority quoted the market steady at yes
terday's closing prices. At one time in the day
packers little inclined to balk but later
the trading again fairly active, and good
clearance was finally made on a basis Of morning
prices. There was some complaint that buyers
were more particular in docking the hogs, which.
of course, is of importance to country buyers,
and they should govern themselves accordingly.
There were not very many late arrivals to-day;
in fact. not enough to affect the trade in any
way, and the market closed steady at opening
prices Sales ranged from $3.50 to $6.05, and the
hogs averaging 230 lbs and upwards sold largely
at S. 60d5 20, with 200 to 225-lb kinds at $3.50
$50. and hogs averaging less than 100 lbs sold
usually at $5s0G6. Quotations:
