10 W. Lard and ribs woru dull nnd steady.
Tlio market was strong most of the tlmo to
day , regardless of nows. The news was bul
lish from abroad and mostly bearish at homo.
Bovcral big operators toolt a turn at the mar
ket and It wns twisted about In
such n way that scalpers had a dlfllcult matter -
tor In trying lo follow It. The low prlco for
the session was inado Just after thu
opening , when Slay touched 07'Se ' , and the
best prlco was about midday , when H sold at
03Jo ! tofiSUc. The turning point for May was
around 97'ic and for July around 0.1 0. Thuio
was more than the usual amount of trading
In July and the prlco for that month took a
shoot up toor.cou big buying hy llutchlnson.
Asldo from this , the best buy Ins was by M jlr ,
I'oolo , Mitchell , a few commission houses ana
Iho crowd. Oiidahy hamincioil the market
early with \ory poor clloct. Hooho and
Bcwurt- , and ut times llutchlnson , ncro free
fellers of advances. The Increase of over
J.COO.OOO bushels In wheat on ocean passagc.tho
news nnd mild weather whore a severe cold
wave was predicted , rains on the Pacific coast
nnd continued liberal receipts Minneapolis
S07cari , Chicago81 car" . Kansas City 70 cars-
were the principal bear points for the day.
The bull news consisted of llrm public and
private cables , both open ing and closlng.frcsh
crop damage reports from Franco by cable
nnd by letter , talr exports from New York
12,030 bushels of wheat and C2.000 packages of
flour and the reported s.ilo of cash wheat
nt Duluth to I.herpool ul Cd advance. Thus ,
with an evenly divided local trade and with
news equally well divided In favorof bulls
nnd boars , the market kept within moderate
bounds , while the \oluino of business was
. liberal. The action for Mny was : Opened ,

but the trading In the rest of the market , with
the exception of silver certificates which

ously near the low prlco reached during
the November panic was without a feature
of any kind. Chicago gas rose 1 per cent ,
Ijackawnnna ? per cent nnd llurllngton U per

the changes In the other portions of the list
were confined to Insignificant fractions. The

Vlllard stocks held firm at the best prices.
Lackawanna lost ! i and dropped back to ii9. :
Itoclc Island and Union 1'aclllc , which acted

The most desirable furs are boavcr. otter.

handled , brlnjt oxtritmo prices , while poorly
handled , fadcdand'rjihty ' colored skins are
hard to bell at very low prices. Ground hon' ,

Northwestern furs , frqm Michigan , Wisconsin
and Minnesota , will bring 'from 10 to 1.1 per

skins , but some lots of furs from the latter
sections are fully us good as tbo skins from
a llttlo farther north. , , .
