WHEAT MARKET
. : IS STILL SACC|NC
LIsTLEssNEss ABROAD AND Ex'
CELLENT CROP OUTLOOK HERE
ARE CHIEF CAUSES.

Chicago, March o. Indifferent
cables and the continued good outlook
for the domestic winter crop made the
wheat market today incline to sag.
Heavy exports from Canada appeared
to be displaying any need for ship
ments to Europe from the United
States Opening prices. which were
unchanged to sc lower, were followed
by some additional declines.
Afterward prices hardened when corn
turned upgrade. The close was easy but
II to u a asc net hi~her
In the corn crowd an increase OF
rural offerings in corn had bearish
influence. Diminished urgency OF cash
demand tended also to weaken the
market. Prices at the outset were a
shade to 1s@Ac lower and further
setback ensued.
Attempts by shorts to cover gave a
further upturn, the close was steady
at Ac to toe1@1h Ok.
Commission house seemed to have
only selling order for oats. What little
demand there was came from shorts.
Provisions held steady with hogs
The market was apparently disposed
to keep within 2hc either way from
Saturday nights level.

SHIPPERS. BEST
BUYERS Of HOGS
DEMAND is FAIRLY ACTIVE AND
SELLERS MANAGE TO HOLD
THEIR PRICES Level.

Chicago, March 23.-Demand for
hogs today was fairly active and sell
ers managed to hold prices steady.
Shippers were the best buyers.
Strength developed in the cattle
market owing to the supply being con-
siderably less plentiful than on the
corresponding day week ago.
Sheep and lambs were not over nu-
merous, especially choice grades.
