" ' , thmtf J,
CTTTCAOO, Mar 28 Bullish statistics, es
pecially big decreases In local stocks, and
continued small receipts Rave bull trad
era (food huylng Incentives today and fair
gains were made In grain price. July
wheat closed up, July corn, ii7mc
' higher, and July oats unonangea. rrovi
slona were weak and closed iVio to loc
lower. .
Wheat showed a good amount of
strength, although early In the aesalon
there was a short-lived dip on a dull mar
ket. Cables were weak, there was promise
' of better receipts from the southwest and
opinions differed about the weather eon-
' dltlons. July opened a shade to c lower
i at 73S73kc to 73VST3'4o. A fair commis
sion house demand helped prices along for
time, but prices early fluctuated very
: narrowly because of good crop prospects.
When the visible supply showed a de
i crease of 2,948,000 bushels and liberal de
I creases' In IochI stocks were taken Into
(consideration bulls began to lift prices.
' Blocks here during the week had de
creased 410.000 bushels and the northwest
i hsd lost 2.000.000 bushels. Traders who had
i been In the country Sunday talked of ex
Iceeslve rains In many districts. There was
I some fair late activity and July sold up to
I 73T4r74c,' materially aided by the strength
I In corn. The close was firm. Va-H" uP
, 73H&'i3c. Loral receipts were 22 cars,
: five of contract grade: Minneapolis and
Duluth reported 2S2 cars, making a total
for the three points of 274 cars, against
1X2 last week and 471 a year ago. On pass-
! age stuff decreased 84. K) bushels. World's
shipments were S.672,000 bushels, against
' a.finn.OuO bushels last week, of which a
large proportion was American. Primary
receipts were 3!l2.0fi0 bushels, compared to
877,000 bushels last year. Seaboard clear
ances In wheat and flour equalled 254,000
bushels.
Nearly every argument favored an up
turn In corn. Receipts, although larger
than several days ago. were still much
mailer than necessary to renlenlsh stocks.
Cables were firm, cash business was goo
and the crowd rather than sen snort was
inclined to take all the scanty offerings
at better prices. Crop prospects were good,
hut rains were reported too excessive for
growth. The southwestern markets also
were bullish. . Manipulation pushed up the
rearer options, while the further deliv
eries showed firmness. The decrease In
stocks helped the bull crowd manipulate
July until the July-September spread wid
ened from 3 to 24c. July sold up to 63'c
and closed strong 44jC up at (663VsC.
Receipt were 99 carB.
Oats were quiet and relied on corn for
support. Fair offerings of May set the
price of that option back a little, but other
stuff was tightly held and prices were very
teady. Almost the only feature of the
Sit was the absence of desire to sell stuff,
uly sold at 37&37c and closed un
changed at 374c. Receipts were much
lararer at 219 cars.
Provisions had to contend against the
weakening Influence of a weak hog mar-
iket at the yards, urterings were liberal
and Drlces declined easily. In the day
, when the pit was dull there was a light
rally on the corn strength, but the close
was 10c lower for July pork at 116.974, "Vc
down for July lura at u.iurmo.iz4 ana
7Val0c lower for July ribs at $9.524i9.5:i.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
90 rars; corn, MO cars; oats, 300 cars; hogs,
23,000 head.

CATTLE-cThere was a very light run of
cattle here today for a Monday, but as
compared with the same day ot last week
there Is not much change. When compari
sons are made with the same day ot last
year, however, the smallness of the supply
todav win te seen.
Although the receipts were lights this
morning the steer market was In none too
good condition. The main bear feature was
tne raci tnat tjnicago was reponeu us nav
lng 21.000 cattle and the market was slot
and a dime lower. That naturally had a
bad Influence on the trade at this point and
the tendency of Drlces was downward. In
some cases sellers succeeded In getting
rlaht around steady prices for the more
desirable grades, but aside from a few sales
the market waa a little lowet, Some of the
commoner grades sold as much as a dime
lower than the same kinds brought at the
close of last week. Although It was not
an active market still practically every
thing was disposed or in good season.
There were comparatively few cows and
heifers on sale this morning and not much
change In the prices paid was noticeable
Anything at all good met with ready sale
at fully as good prices as were paid last
week. The common and grassy cows were
of course neglected to some extent, but
still even those changed hands at right
around steady prices. There seemed to be
a good demand tor ouna, veai calves and
stags of desirable quality and the market
could be quoted steady,
Stockers and feeders were In light supply
this morning and aa speculators succeeded
in closing out aoout an tney nan on nana
lest week the market took on some life
this morning. and steady to Strong Drlces
were paid for the better grades. The com
moner grades oi stocKsrs ot course did not
sell as readily, but still they brought
steady prices as compared with the close of
last ween. Representative sales:

HOGS-There was a heavy run of h"gs
here today for a Monday, a good gain
having been made both over Monday of
last week and also over the ssme day of
last year Chicago had a liberal run and
the market at that point was quoted a dime
lower. Trading at this point stsrted out
verv slow and was generally a dime lower.
Packers did not care particularly whether
they got manv hogs or not, for the reason
that they were paying as much here as
thev were In Chlcsgo. The bulk of the
offerings, though, was disposed of In fairly
good season, but when Chicago was re
ported closing lotrinc lower packers at this
point lowered their bids snd the close
was Blow and weak with light hogs selling
liil5c lower thsn the close of last week.
The good weight hogs sold from $7 to 3710,
and as high as 37.15 was paid, which was
the same aa Chicago's top. The medium
weights went mostly from 3690 to 8. while
the light weights sold unevenly lower from

SHEEP There went ahnnt ela-ht pars of
sheep on ssle this morning, besides four
earn direct to local packers. The quality
of the offerings, though was not good, and.
in iaci, witn tne exception of a loan or two
the quality waa only common to fair. Pack
ers took hold In good shape, however, and
the better grades sold without trouble st
Just about steady prices. The common stuff
was, ot course, neglected, and nara to 4"u
at any price. It was evident from the way
buyers acted that as previously stated there
Is an active demand for desirable grades
of both sheep and lambs, but that the
common kinds are very slow sale.
