Chicago, ILL.,, April 5.-After fair
~ active market for cattle yesterday
and a good clearance at stronger val
ues, the supply was light today. De
mand for plain steers was not urgent
ut the start. The total for the week
shows an increase of about 1000 over
the corresponding period last week.
Values dropped considerably the first
two days. Less than 5000 stale hogs
were in the pens. while big killers
had about 1000 forwarded from other
trading points. The market was strong
for all trades.
Receipts were 5000 cattle; $4,000
hogs. $1,000 sheep. G000 salves.
Trading was little slow in the cat
tie pens. but better demand was
noted late in the day. when sales Of
good stears were quoted 10 TO II =
higher, with some deails showiE.. Il
gain of % cents over the average OF
the previous session. Some 1910 steers
sold at 5000 for the weeks high
point, while fair number of animals
made $40 and better. Cows ard heifers
sold well mt fully steady values. but
medium and plain steers and cows
were slow. Gamers and bulls were
steady. Veal calves also held well.

while other kinds were strong to n
dime higher. Choice lots made $50
or the high mark for the week, while

RETAIL TRADE INCREASES.
New Orleans District Reports an Era
of Prosperity.

New Orleans. La, April 5.-This
section of the South is enjoying the
largest volume of retail trade in the
last three years. The early advent
of Easter probably was a factor,
but no check has been experienced
since that date.
Jobbers of dry goods and kindred
lines reported today slight slacken-
ing Of demand, but they attribute this
largely TO the fact that retailers al
ready have bought so heavily for their
spring and summer trade. Boys cloth
ing. women's shoes, silks, ribbons,
gloves and millinery lead in the daily
sales.
Bank clearings in the last month
have been $4S.000,000 larger than for
the corresponding period Of last year
and local banks have used less than
S2,000,000 of their rediscount privi-
