l'ea tares of the Trading nnd Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.
CH1CAOO. Jan. 4. -A heavy preponder
ance of bullish news raused a strong wheal
market here today. At the close wheat for
Mnv delivery was I'.fnc hlsier, coin
was up VWv"C oats were c higher and
provisions were from 2,c to 10c higher.
The wheat market ruled strong all day.
The opening was firm, because of light
receipts in the norWiwest and a marked
decrease In the world's shipments as com
pared with last year. A slight decline duo
to realising sales following the opening
sales. Large clearances, hlpher prices for
rash wheat and Increased demand for ex
port and the report that northwestern
millers are bidding high for hard win er
wheat were the chief factors. It was also
reported that the grain crops of Norway
wero below norma' on acrount of exces
sive rains last summer. May wheat opened
A4r'-,c higher at S1.07H.?1.07H. sold between
$l.c and $1,084 and closed strong at

flour were equal to 737.(100 bu. Primary re
ceipts were 450,000 bu.. as against 663.000 1 on
.cm rtv last veer. Mlnnespolis. Du
luth and Chicago reported receipts of 2)7
rs. as against 3 last wee ana ici our
year ago.
The corn market opened firm because or
wet weather throughout the belt, but heavy
selling bv holders soon brought about a
decline. On the slump, however, renew eo
speculative demand and me sirensm oi
wheat brought about a firmer feeling and
the market soon advanced to a level
slightly above the close of yesterday. May
opened MtV; to 84c higher at 61ff
614c sold between rc and ffl'tc nnd
closed firm at tilNlVy. Ijocal receipts
were 111 cars, with one ot contract grur.
The oats market was slow an aay. j rsa-
ing was very light. May oats openea m,c
hiKher nt fAc. sold between Bl4e and 55e
and closed at 55c. Local receipts were 122
cais. . ,
The run of hogs botn nere sna i uiner
western packing centers was very heavy
and the provisions market was under con
siderable pressure from packers Prices.
however, ruled firm for tne greater pari
of the day, because of the strength of
the grain markets and a good outside de
mand. Mav pork was 10c higher. Lard

CATTLE There were no fresh receipts of
cattle or any consequence ths morning, the
market being practically bare of supplies as
usual on a Saturday. The receipts this
week have been fairly liberal for the sea
son of the year, showing a good gain over
last week, but at the same time there has
been a heavy decrease as compared with
the corresponding week of last year. The
market as a whole has been in very satis
factory condition so far as sellers have
been concerned, there- having been more
life and snap to the trade than for some
time back. Everything received this week
lias met witn aulte ready sa e.
Both packers and shippers have been free
buyers of beef stsK-rs all this week. Prices
during the week have gradually firmed up,
especially the better kinds. At the close of
the week It Is safe to auote Uie more de
slrahle grades 15ri25c higher than last week
At the same time some medium kinds of
cattle which are not In very good demand
have shown comparatively Utile Iniprove
ment.
In addition to a good demand on the
part of packers there has also been free
buying for shippers' account of both cows
and heifers. The result has been a gradual
strengthening in prices and at the close
of the week the market Is right at 25c
higher than- a week ago especially on the
fair to good kinds. Common and medium
grades, which were not In as good demand
naturally failed to respond as rapidly to
the improved conditions.
The receipts of stackers and feeders have
been extremely light nil the week, In fact
on some days there has been hardly
enough to really make a test of the msr
ket. At the same 'time there has been
considerable inquiry for cattle of that de
scription and the few coming have sold
very readily at good strong prlcrs.

being reported In. ror the week tile re
ceipts were more than double last week's
receipts and Just about twlro as large as
for tne corresponding .week of last year.

was so good that the trade this morning
was very active and practically everything
In sight changed hands In very good sea
son In the morning. The prices paid were
just about 5c lower than yesterday's gen
ual market. The hogs sold largely at and
right, around $4 .35. with a top at $4.40. It

SHEEP There wire no fresh receipts of
sheep today and nothing of any conse
qjciii: on sala. For lii k rripts
f.uve utvn very nutrai, being vuh
sa Urge ss for the previous week snd very
little short of the record ot a year
Tho market In solte of liberal receipts
hss been most ss.lsfactory to sellers
Prices during tho first four days of the
week soared upward at a very rspld rste
under the Influence cf nn exceedingly
good buying demand. It would be very
conservative to s:iy that desirable amirs
have sold 251? 50c hisher than at the low
point Of the ptevlous week snd some sabs
actually looked higher than that. On
Thursday the advance wss halted, the feel
ing on that day. If anything, bolus; a little
esler. On Friday, while lambs showed
very little change, sheep were generally
quoted loo snd in aome cases as much as
l'nfe lower than the extreme high point.
of ths week.
The sheet) market has not looked as
bright or as promising st any time since
the big break as it does right now. It
will be well, however, for the country to
thoroughly understand that the splendid
buying demand which has put up prices at
stioh a rapid rate was confined largely to
the inoro desirable' grade of killers. At
this season of the yeur there Is very little
Inquiry for half-fat or unfinished sneep
Or lamhs. It therefore follows that if the
present advance Is to be maintained th
country should confine Us shipments to
strictly rat stufr. It might also ne wen
to realise that with prospects brighter for
the future of the market there should be
bo great rush to market even of the do
sirable kinds.
