/ Long Commission Co. Grain Letter.
/ CHICAGO. Feb. 14.--rluctuations
were neither 30 wide nor 30 rapid as
those OF last week, and most OF the
trading early in the day was done 1T
prices lower than Fridays closing fg-
| ures. The local traders paid no at
tention to cables, they were more in
! fluenced by the report OF increased
receipts in the northwest. Cash mar
kets were not out Of the ordinary, No.
2 hard selling at May prices, while the
better grades brought premium Of
about IN cents. The July delivery
was stronger than the May because of
repeated damage reports from the
southwest.
Corn-Corn showed remarkable
strength with the largest receipts Of
the season and cash met with very
poor demand for low grade stuff,
which comprised all Of sixty per cen.
OF receipts locally. There Is no out
let for this soft corn except industrial
users who are able to secure 1t at
their own prices. While this condition
continues. which will probably be for
several weeks, it will act as a damp
er on any bull movement in the long
run. Good corn will be scarce and
command fancy price.
Oats-Cats depended on other mar
kets with trade largely local. While
cash demand was fairly good. the
easy tone in other markets and In oaa
futures had depressing effect, and
the market was slightly lower than
last week.
Provisions-A big run of hogs
checked an advance in provisions
which resulted from broader outside
demand last week. Packers were the
best sellers early. Lard continues to
draw away from meats.
