CATTLE-There was a very heavy run OF
cattle here this morning, and, in fact, re-
ceipts were the heaviest of any day, so tar
this year. Very naturally the supply was
considerably ahead of expectations and
packers made use Of that fact to pound
the market.
Steer buyers started out quite early, but
from the beginning their bids were gem
orally a dime lower on all classes. Sellers
were inclined to hold on for steady prices,
but in view of the big run they soon began
to cut loose, so that trading was fairly
active at the decline. Buyers seemed TO
nave quite liberal orders, so the bulk of the
more desirable grades was disposed OF at
the offerings was about the same as 1t
has been of late.
The cow market was also about a dime
lower than yesterday. The big end of the
receipts consisted Of beef steers, but at the
same time there were a good many cows
and heifers on sale and buyers said they
would get them a dime lower or not at all.
When sellers finally made up their mind
to take off a dime trading was as active
as could be expected on a downward mar
ket.
break on steers and cows, but veal calves
held about steady.
The demand from the country for stock
ers and feeders was rather disappointing
Yesterday, and as a result s~peculators were
%sprinkling of stockers and feeders included
In the receipts this morning. The best
grades were probably not over a dime
lower, but some of the mon grades
were considerably lower than that Repre-

CHICAGO, April 2s.-The wheat ma ket

Corn was fairly active, but the trading
was mostly local. Prices were firm on pre-
dictions of cold, wet weather throughout
the west, and shorts covered freely early
in the day. Later the early advance was
lost on commission house selling Que 10 the
increased receipts, and the market nelu
steady until the last hour, when there was
a sharp break on heavy liquidation, IN

selling between Ac and Acc. July was of
%a1sc, closing at 449sQ44Ac,- after ranging
between Aye and 45sc. Local receipts
were 222 cars, 1 OF contract grade.
. Oats showed some early In the
day on selling by brokers, due to increased
receipts, but predictions of unfayorable
weather started a strong local buying
movement, which resulted in a rally, and
the market held firm throughout the re-
mainder OF the day. May closed unchanged
at 33%c, after selling between 33c and S3%c,
while July was up B@kc at 3119c, after
selling between 31lc and Sl5sc. Local re-
celpts were 293 cars.
There was further liquidation in pro-
visions and this selling was augmented by
the stop-loss orders which came out on the
decline. Liberal receipts of hogs and
lower prices at the yards were influential
in starting the selling movement. There
was some buying by packers, but on the
whole the market lacked any material sup
port. July pork closed at a loss of 42Bc al
$16 921k. Lard was down zoe at $3.50 and
ribs were 171kc lower at $9.37h.
