strong and hiKhcr. December cloning an
even cent over last night s clone. December
whoat closed Sc higher, while oats were
l'c higher. Provisions ruled strong and
clowd hrm. to ic higher.
Home strength wna ahown In wheat, BJt
trading was rathir dull. Strong; cables,
together with hlghrr prices In corn were
th principal strengthening Influences. A
good export market also tended to main
tain better vaJues. The principal trading
vaa In December, which whs Vfl'ic toM
fcc, at 68e. After selling to 7o',fi,i c
longs began to dispose of considerable hold
ing and the market sagged accordingly,
rolng back to Wc. Inte In the session
buying by commlsnlon houses brought the
rally to TOVdOVc, the close was So higher
at 70'fi TOc. Clearances of wheat are

The volume of trading In corn was again
large and a firm undertone was mani
fested, although some weakness developed
during the day. Early In the day there
was realizing by longs, but offerings were
well taken. There was slso some short
selling by local traders, but In spite of this
combined pressure prices were well main
tained. Small receipts with continued tin
favorable weather were bull features. De
cember opened 4fctc higher at 49Va49HiO,
and on cnmmlxeluii house Belling, together
with short selling, a. reaction to 48Nc fol
lowed. I-ater the early sellers turned
buyers ami the close was strong and at
the high point of the day at 49c, showing a
gain of lc over yesterday.
Oats were Inclined to dullness, but prices
were dull In sympathy with corn. Buying
by a prominent long, together wlih fairly
active commlhsion house buying, were the
features. December opened unchanged to
Ho higher at 31Vtfc2TC Hosing l4e higher
at 32e. Loral receipts were 112 cars.
There was a moderate trade In provisions,
but the market was strong. Higher prices

cattle here today, so that sellers had an
opportunity to clean up practically everything-
they had on hand. Buyers took hold
quite freely and showed a disposition to
take everything in sight and thus clear the
pens ready for next week.
The market on cornfed eteers did not
show any particular change, as the few
cattle that were offered sold at good steady
price, a. compared with recent sales.
There was nothing choice In the yards,
though, with which to make a fair test ot
the market.
The cow market was fairly active today
and practically everything In the yards was
disposed of. The prices paid were fully
steady with yesterday, but as compared
with a week ago the market Is 3&60c lower,
the greatest decline being on the medium
claw of cows.
Bulls, veal calves and stags also sold at
fully steady prices with yesterday and any
thing desirable sold without much trouble.
There were only a few stockers and feed
ers on sale and not many were wanted.
Buyers, though, were., looking for a few
good heavyweight cattle and those an
swering to that description sold at fully
steady prices. The common stuff, though,
was very slow, a. has been the case all the
week and price, on such kinds are consid
erably lower for the week. Yesterday there
were over 150 cars of cattle shipped to the
country, but it has been very noticeable all
the week that buyers want ' the better
?rades, no matter whether they are looking
or light or heavyweights, and for that rea
son there are a good many cattle In specu
lators' hands that are of common to pretty
fair quality.
There were only a few western beef steers
on rale today and anything desirable sold
without trouble at good steady prices. The
common kinds, though, were neglected. De
sirable grades of feeder, commanded fully
steady prices, but common kinds were slow
and weak. Range cows held fully steady
all around and a good clearance waa made.

HOCJS There wis a light run of hogs at
all points today, and as a result prices Im
proved. The market opened here in good
season at an advance of 6i10c. The bulk
of the hugs sold at right around 17 i, with
choice loads selling from 17 3o to 17.374. The
heavy packing sows sold from 87.30 down.
The market on paper looks practically a
dime higher, but the quality of the hogs
was a little better today than yesterday,
which accounts In part for the advance.
Trading was quite active, so that practic

SHEEP There was a very light run 01
sheep her. today and In fact there was
nothing at all good with which to make a
test of the market. There were several
bunches of common stun held over from
yesterday, and, a. has been the rase all
the week, that class of offerings ha. been
slow .ale.
For the week desirable grade, of fat
sheep and lamb, may be quoted steady to
strong. Common stuff, though, Is slow and
weak. Choice feeder, have also held very
nearly steady, but the general run of feed
ers are right around 26a lower and old ewei
have suffered worst than that.
