Duliith reported 103 cars, against lio Inst

were 40 ears, 1 of contract grade.
Corn was firmly held, but no attempt
was mnilo to push prices unduly upward,
although thorn was opportunity In tho

both markets. Copper in London declined

spot closing at Tu3s9d and futures () 16s.
Here the market was more or less nominal

steady trndo since our Inst review. Tho
largest consumers have done very little and
few sules of any magnitude nre reported.
Tho aggregate 06 the taking of the smaller
purchasers foots up a. fair sized total, ex
ceeding 4.000,000. pounds. There Is, if any
thing, a little more of a disposition to buy
than wns noted a week ago, but It Is a
between scasonB .period with tho mills,
inltlnl orders for henvvwelchls belntr nrac-
tlcally completed and ft being too early for
tho duplicate orders to set In, Finer wools
nre relatively stronger thnn medium and
low wools ana mo inquiry seems 10 no
running more to tho liner sorts than form
erly, 'ino lono or tno maraci is quuo
firm, although It Is ns yet Impossible to
secure better prices for wools. There have
been some Nevada wools purchased for
eastern nccount. Tho sales ror the weeK
In lloston amounted to 3,483,000 pounds
domestic and 025,000 pounds foreign, mak
ing a totnl of 4,10.8,000 against a total or
432,oou for tno corresponuing wceg iasi

to 72.812,900 pounds, against 49,859,900 for tho

more than packers wanted. The market
opened up early and the bulk of the or

Tho big end of the receipts were again
rnmnnson of beef steers of very fair qual
ity. The demand on tho part of packers
was active and steady to strong. Sellers
found little dllllculty in disposing of any
thing at nil desirable at very satisfactory
prices. On the Inst end of the market
buyers did not seem to be quite as anxious
for supplies, but still the market as a
wholo was In very good shape and the
prices paid compared favorably with those

There was not much change noticeable' In
the prlces.,paid, but still the market could
cnfniv lie (i 110 ted active and steady to
strong. The light supply soon brought tho
marktjt to a close. The better grades were
of course In greuter demand, but even the
less deslrablo kinds sold without much
trouble.

There were oniy a iew reeuers onereu

little better demand for them. Anything

western and eastern wholcnalcrs and manu
facturers. It Is tho ftrst time tho natlun.il
organization has been nhlo to gain a foot
hold In tho west nnd Cincinnati, St. Louis,
Milwaukee. Cleveland and Potrolt clothiers
are expected to follow tho lead of tho
Chicago men, ranking tho association otio
of the largest and strongest In tlio country.
Hitherto It hns heeti confined to the markets
of New York, Ruffnlo, Rochester, Syracuse,
Utlca and Philadelphia, representing nn an

affect the market.
HOGS The market nt this point opened
about steady on tho best heavyweights and
others weak to 2tyo lowtr. The llrst poles
wern mnxflv nt l !i?u nml 15.95. nnd from
that up to J6.02H. tho top being 23c higher
than yesterday's best price. Packers, how
ever, were noi anxious lor me nogs in ui
prlees, ns other markets were quoted about
a nickel lower. Ry this time half tho hogs
had changed hands tho market weakened
and bids weru mostly at $5.90 and $5.92V4.
Sellers found It almost Impossible to dis
pose of the light common stuff, as nono of
the packers seemed to want It,
Tho last end of the market was very slow
and weak, and It was late beforo a clear
ance wns made. Chicago came 10c lower
on tho close, nnd as a result packers were
only offering $5.S5 nnd $5.!i7H for whnt was
left, until tne iasi, so mat tne close nero
nickel lower, jiepro-

of sheep here today and the market held Just
ariout steady all around. Tne bulk of tne
offerings were mado up of Colorado lambs
and they sold right around $5.00 and ns high
as $5.02Vi was paid. Sheep were In good
demand and chanced hands at Just about
steady prices with yesterday, or a dime
lower than the close of last week. Tho
market an a whole, on both sheen nnd
lambs, can bo best described by calling It
a dime lower than last week.
There wero nractlcallv no feeders offered
today, but they can safely be quoted steady.
