late yesterday afternoon.
Hogs later went over the 1870 REQ.

was for one lot of six fancy hogs. The

maintained, despite efforts of the
packers to buy at yesterdays range.

Chicago, March Hogs reached
the high record of $40 per 100
pounds yesterday in the local mar
ket, while $10.05 was paid in Indian
apolis and s9.S5 in st. Louis. The
price equals the mark set in 1870
and only the war price of $13.25 paid
in 1868 remains to be broken. James
B. Cahill, a local dealer, sold 64
hogs of an average weight of 264

-ss,l.----- EassaIIsL-EHfgEestsf I'm History.
Hogs have sold at more than $40 on
the Chicago market before, but the
prices then were Influenced by condi-
tfons foreign to the hog trade, and
yesterdays general market was regard
ed by many traders as the highest re-
corded in the history of the trade.
In 1870, the most recent time that
hogs sold up to that figure, only fat,
heavy swine reached the zenith, and
packers had no difficulty in buying
hogs suitable for their requirements at
prices that were so cents to 81 lower
than they paid for the same class yes
terday.
A veteran IN the trade recalled an
other time when hogs sold at high
prices. This was in 1869. Board of
trade spectators in that year had
sold great quantities of lard for future
delivery. When time came to make
the deliveries arrived, there was scarce
ly any lard to be had.
Bought. for Lard.
The result was that they paid up to
$11.65 for hogs; took the fat to make
lard, which was then retailing at 35
cents a pound, and disposed of the
dressed meat at almost any price they
could get.
There were no refrigerator plants in
Chicago at that time, and although cur
Ing facilities were pressed to their ut
most. the supply of fresh pork became
SO burdensome that employees in pack /
ing houses were given the privilege of |
taking home all the pork tenderloins
and other fancy cuts free of charge. |
Lard was all the hog buyers wanted.
Paid s13.25 I'm Scrip.
In December of 1865. the closing /
days of the civil war period, sales of |
hogs were made at Chicago at $13.25. /
The price was paid in legal tender or
"shinplasters" issued by the govern
ment during the scarcity of currency
following the war, and present traders
maintain that when figured on a gold
basis prices now are higher than they
were In war time
