Grain Market.

That readjustment of values for
grains Is on Ia a certainty. Liquida-
ton is under way and was very strong,
Tuesday, values opening lower and
continuing ON the decAae from start
TO finish, the close on corn and oats
being the lowest OF the season and in
several years, and on wheat the low
est on the present movement. 1t was
easy to buy millions OF bushels bY
the shorts, who secured handsome
profits and in covering failed to pre-
vent the break. Bullish news was
scarce, and what little appeared was
ignored. At the close wheat showed
losses Of rs GQ1ssc, corn values failed
to respond to a real frost scare, and
closed with losses Of ss@1hc, May
leading, and oats were on nc.
st. Louis sent reports of poor de-
mand for cash wheat there and claim
ed that one cash handler had sold only
twelve ears of wheat since July l,
against 100000 blu. last year. Ship
ments of wheat from st. Louis yes
terday were $4,000 pu., or only 10000
bu. less than the receipts, showing
that there must be some demand for

Corn traders ignored the material
ization oil the frost that was expected
over Iowa, Nebraska and extending
down into western Kansas. There
was also freezing weather in the
Northwest and prospects for more
frost. They started the market weak
and Nose lower, and there were
few rallies of short duration at any
time during Tuesday.
Cash sales of grain at Chicago on
Tuesday were 10000 bu. wheat, 400,-
600 blu. corn, including 100000 bu. for
direct export, and 100000 bu. oats. No
sales of wheat for export were report

Market Notes.

| Conditions in the cattle market
Tuesday we're by no means satisfac-
tory to the selling side of the trade.
he receipts were One-half western
range stuff. Buyers were extremely
Indifferent and apathetic, realizing that
they were in position of vantage.
Under the circumstances, the sellers
were up against a hard proposition.
There were no good steers offered.
No change was noted in the market
for stockers and feeders. The de-
mand was fairly strong from the coun.
try, but the accumulation on hand
was very large and little competition
was necessary. ...
Hog values got a hard swat Tues
day. There was little excuse for 1t
measured by the size of the receipts,
but slim demand from shippers gave
packers the chance and they hammer
ed the market hard. The greatest
discrimination was against the light
weights which we're numerous. They
sold 15@20c lower, showing that pack.
ers are particularly prejudiced against
the young hogs.
Chicago and Omaha Monday had
$4,000 sheep and lambs. This was
a record at both places and Ii is said
that if many sheep had not been head
ed off at the nearby feeding points
that the supply would have been much
greater. That the market Is holding
strong under this burden is a great
surprise to the trade.
Average price of hogs at Chicago
Tuesday, 1884, against $3.50 Monday,
SS.77 week ago, $s19 year ago
and 1915 two yea ago.
