The opening, which ranged from He to W&i hlelier. was followed by a slight reaction, and then by a, rtsa higher tnaa before. Unebatefl foreign demand -kept prices on the advance. The close was strong, lHrj-c svv lat night Corn .hardened with whest Rural of ferings v.eia light. After opening 440 off to a like advance, the market scored, a i.tue upturn a;i arouna.

ItmA AuAVii'lialmlnir r.ce.pts were reported og' Chicago, with practically all markets the country over heavily loaded. Tho result wss the moit severe slump st Chicago experienced In a1 long time, prices thore for the week be-! Ing quoted $1.0O(til.75 lower on killing cat-' tie. The bad break at Chicago carried all 1 western markets down the decline, being helped by the heavy-runs. As a result, the week's trade In cattle is the most rils-j astroua experienced In a long time. The ; country has suffered enormous losses on account of Its folly In shipping half fat and Immature cattle in large Hiimbera dur.nv the month of December, whon sucn catue invanaoiy sen to mo poorest. advantao of any t.mo during tho whole IrABP It la c n r 1 1 ttAll 1 1 1 1 r. , i that !

In. anything Ilka usual quantities. Whlio tne market t this ioint did not suffer as much dec. tne as Chicago, the general run of killing cattle are safely loon'Jl.UO lower than at the best time last Week. Blockers and feeders have not suf fered so much decline as killing cattle because the break brought In good coun. try buy ng ordure which helped sustain the market on that kind of stuff.
