CHICAGO GRAIN AXU PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading" and Closing;
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Feb. 1. The wheat market
was nervous today, prices fluctuating over
a range of 3 cents. Final quotations on
the May delivery were up Vtf'Vic. Corn
waa ,c higher. Oats were unchanged and
provlaiona 2o higher to c to Ion lower.
Wheat opened firm on covering by shorts,
demand being based on a . steady market
at Liverpool and on much smaller receipts
In. the northwest. Sentiment continued
uuiio bullish, for a time, but toward the
end of tho first hour prices broke .sharply
on renewed proft-taking by several of the
largo holders. The May options showed
the greatest loss, the price dropping 14tc
below the high point of the day. Shorts
again bought freely on the break, which
soon caused the recovery. Throughout the
remainder of. the session the market was
nervous, but buyer seemed to predomi
nate and prices were inclined to advance.
Late news told of an improved demand
for wheat and flour by exporters and this
helped to create a firmer feeling. The
cIohs waa steady. May opened 1nc to 4o
higher at WVfi!i6V4e, sold off to !49o and
closed at U6T!Ulic. Clearances of wheat
and flour were equal to 403,000 bu. Primary'
receipts wer 402,000 bu.. compared with
4:w,Ooo hu. the corresponding day a year
ago. Minneapolis, Duhith and Chicago re
ported receipta of 194 cars, against 8.(9
cars last week and 242 cars a year ago.
Corn waa inclined to follow the course
of wheat prices. The market was quite
firm" at the atart In sympathy with Wheat
and on smaller orders than had been esti
mated. Pricea slumped, but rallied again.
The close was steady.' May opened Vu'!o
higher at 6Sc, sold up to 59o, and then
declined to 6Hc. The close was at 68'(i69c.
Local receipts were 498 cars, with none of
contract grade.
There was a moderate trade in oata and
the market waa nervous, being Influenced
almost wholly by wheat and corn. May
opened unchanged at 61 'ic. aold uo to 61 e.
and then declined to 50;ic The close was
at bl'c. 'ixx-al receipts were 1S2 care.
Provisions were quiet .owing to the fact
that tradera generally were disposed to
await the monthly statement of stocka In
atore. The market waa steady the greater
part of the day. At the close May pork
was off 12mft'16o at $12.0712.10; lard was

CATTLE Something unusual happened
toOuy. Saturday ia practically a holiday
in tne cattle trade, no one expecting re
ceipta of any consequence on that day, but
siiil there are always a few cars reported
In. This morning, however, for the tlrsi
time In a great while not a single cur
of cattle was reported curly. The receipts
tor the week have been quite libeial, the
total being about the same as for last
week and very little short of last year's
figures. The receipts for the month of
January show u very heavy falling off
aa compared with the corresponding month
of last year, but with the single exception
of last year they were the largest for the
month of January in the history of the
yards and were larger than any month
since last October.
Beef steers began the week with a good
sharp advance, the trade on Monday being
both active and higher. That, however,
was the only day on which the trade could
have been reported aa entirely satisfactory
to the selling interests. During the next
two days prices went dnv?n hill rapidly, all
ot the advance and more, too, being wiped
out. so that at the close of the week beef
steers are generally 10itf20c lower than at
the close- of last week. Contrary to the
usual rule the good cattle suffered as much
as the common to medium kinds. In fact,
on some days the better grades of cattle
were harder to sell at satisfactory prices
than the commoner kinds.
Cows and heifers. In fact all kinds of
butcher stock, began the week in active
demand and with prices generally higher,
but prices on such cattle eased off -the
same as did beef steers and at the close
of the week are generally KKuJOc lower than
last week. There was on some days espe
cially a very fair shipping demand for the
better gradea of cows and heifers, so that
prices on sucli showed less decline than
the more ordinary kinds.
Stockers and feeders If anything were
stronger and a feeder buyer paid as high
as' $4.80 for very choice weighty feeders.
Light stockers if possessing quality sold
generally at about steady prices, with in
ferior grades or trashy stuff hard to move.

HOGS The hog piarket this morning In
one respect closely reaembled that, of yes
terday; that ia, buyers were all looking for
guod, weighty hogs, and neglected the
lighter and less desirable kinds. Thus,
while the general market waa 5i)10c lower
than "yesterday's early market, the decline
waa more on the lights than on the heavies.
The trade on the heavy hogs wss generally
active and salesmen found little difficulty
In unloading anything having weight and
quality. On the other hand it waa very
hard work to dlupoxe of the lighter weights,
excepting at much lower prices. As noted
yesterday a good many more light hogs
are coming than usual and there has been
a tendency this week toward an accumula
tion of that kind. Hence it happened that
there were quite as good many atale light
hogs on sale which increased the days
supply by just that much. In spite of the
disinclination on the part of buyers to take
hold of light hogs, all kinds kept moving
and the big bulk of the receipta changed
hands In fair season at the decline noted
above.
The receipts of hogs this week have been
decidedly larger than for the correspond
ing week of last year, though not as heavy
aa last week. The total receipts for the
month were the largest for the month of
January In the history of the yards, allow
ing a gain of 103 000 head Over January of
last year. But that la not all; the receipts for
the month Just closed were the largest of
any month In the history of this market.
The market this week opened with a
small advance, but alnce Monday prices
have been lower every day with the ex
ception of a slight reaction on Thursday
and Friday. At the close of the week the
market la aboiH loo lower than one week
ago.

8HEKP Only two fresh cars of sheep
were reported In and as they were sold be
fore arrival there waa absolutely nothing
offered for aale on the market, iteeelpis
of aheep this week Uavo uvea very libeial,
showing a large gain over last work and
being about on a par with the teeord of a
yer ago. However the receipts for the
month which closed yesterday were the
smallest for a January since WA In spile
of liberal receipts the market started out
the week undr very favorable conditions.
Prices tended upward and were a good 26c
higher for Monday and Tuesday. During
the latter part of the week the tendency
was downward under the Influence of
largw receipta at all selling points accom
panied by a very severe break at eastern
markets. The condition of the trade east
ward reduced the buying demand at tills
point very materially, with tho result that
prlcce slid downward rapidly and at the
close of the week all of the advance has
been wiped out. In other words the market
Is now about Where It was at the close
of last week. '
Operatora on the marfet are still very
confident regarding the future of the sheep
trade. While sharp breaks are to be ex
pected aa well as advances, the general
reeling s-ems to be that there Is no ap
parent reason why good prices should nut
prevail for both sheep and lambs through
out the season.
