ish and the sentiment among the bear fac
tion was notably more confident than II
has been for some time, but prices have
not changed enough to be a decided gain
for either side.
There is a strong feeling that corn IS duo
for a turn and a heavy switch from the
near future by the largest holders has
taken place in the last day or two.
Wheat opened steady but dull and sagged
lower, with little support out on the buying
side. II was a bear market throughout and
prices eased off and acted heavy, with no
feature TO sustain the recent strength. May
opened at 3l.0ei4 and closed at Si0sR.
Corn weakened with wheat and the cash
market showed sloss from &c to nc drop
With the exception Of a rumor that good
export sales were reported the market he'd

closed at e3Lc.
Primary wheat receipts were 5000 bush
els and shipments were 235.0m bushels,
against receipts last year OF 655, 900 bushels
and shipments Of 35l, 900 bushels.
Corn receipts were 504,00 bushels and

First bids possibly were not over 5GIUc

seemed to want the hogs and they picked
them up about as fast as they could look
at them. From this Il will be noted that
the market was Just the reverse OF yester-

best heavy hogs sold on up as high as

against 800 yesterday.
As noted yesterday good light hogs are in
demand. but shippers should bear in mind
that quality cuts a very big figure, for
while the best light hogs are selling to very
good advantage common light hogs are sell
ing at the bottom OF the market. Today's
advance makes up for all OF the decline Of
