oas sold ud to to today, tha highest price
paid since November W of last year. The

A featura of tha market Is the evident
reluctance of packers to see prices advance,
and they are without exception acting on
the bear side or tne oeai. in otner w,,ru,
they are paying the prices under protest,
as It were, and are very much Inclined to
hang back until forced to raise their Dias.
Thus it Is that the late market Is apt to
e a little easier than the early ana iai
rrlvals are as a consequence very apt to
uffer more or less neglect.
