CATTLE-There was a very light run of
cattle here today, and as liberal receipts
were generally predicted the market natu-
tally ruled very active with prices stronger.
Buyers all started out early and everything
was soon disposed of.
There were only a few punches of beef
steers in the yards, and the quality of those
that did arrive was rather inferior. Pack
ers, though, had to have some cattle, and
the market could safely be quoted active
and strong. With that kind of a market
a good many sales, of course, looked 5d10c
higher. The greatest improvement, though,
was noted on the handy weight cattle. and
also on the inferior grades. The heavy
cattle sold just about in last weeks notches:
The COW market was active but could
not be quoted much more h steady.
Some statesmen thought they got a little
stronger prices, but the Improvement
where there was any, was confined largely
to the better grades. Gamers and cutters
held Just about steady, but the market was
active on all kinds, so that statesmen had
very little trouble in disposing of every
thing that arrived.
bulls also met with ready sale at fully
steady prices, and veal calves sold in the
same notches they have for the last several
weeks.
Stockers and feeders were in light supply,
and as Spectators had very few on hand
thew were ali anxious for fresh cattle. The
market, as a result, was active and
Stronger on such as were offered, Owing to
the scarcity of good cattle even the com
moner grades sold better than they did last
week Representative sales:

CHICAGO. March 1.-The strength in
corn was again a predominating influence
in the grain pits today. and both wheat
1sdhc higher and corn %dhc higher. May
oats were &c lower and provisions were
from Sc to 20c higher.
There was only a light trade in wheat.
but the market was firm throughout the
entire session, with the exception Of an
easier feeling at the start, Influenced by
lower cables and favorable weather. which
caused May to open down hdAc at lFbcq
INC. The strength in corn and a larger
decrease in the visible supply than had
been expected soon created a irmer feeling
and May sold up TO Utc. At the advance
there was considerable realizing. and with
small ~clearances and an almost entire lack
OF foreign demand the price eased on a
trife, but rallied again toward the close on
a good commission house demand, with
rather light offerings. and final 1gures on
May were hdhc higher at W1R1TIssc.
Clearances Of wheat and flour were $1,000
bushels, and the amount on passage In
creased 1,652,0O0 bushels. The visible sup
ply showed a decrease of l,14i,OO bushels.
while the general expectations were tor

points of 1853 cars. against 52 cars a year

main bull factors were immense clear
Ances-over 100000 bushels-a fair de-
crease in the visible supply and a good
cash and export demand while favorable
weather was the only bear feature in the
situation. The close on May was asqhc
higher at 47%d4T1zc, after ranging between
i6hc and 47%c. Local receipts were 357
cars, with none Of contract grade.
Oats were dull and the volume of busi-
ness was Hight. The strength I'm corn
brought out considerable buying orders
from local traders, but the improved
weather and an active cash demand tended
to discourage any bullish sentiment. The
market closed slightly under Saturdays
prices. May being on &c at 1855, after
selling between 35Ac and 35ssc. Local re-
ceipts were moderate at 226 cars.
Provisions ruled active and strong. hog
prices being higher on a smaller run of
hogs and an advance of from 1Oc to 15c
In prices at the yards. A good demand
from packers and shorts added to the early
strength and prices were well maintained,
the close on May pork being up zoe at
