CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading; and Closlnsr
Prices en Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Jan. 22. Wheat ruled higher
here today. Influenced bv strong focelun
cables and a good demand, t orn and oats
rell off on heavy selling pressure. Pro
visions, largely vaffectcd by the widespread
agitation against high meat prices, declined
materially.
In the wheat pit a well defined advance
at the start kept Its, hold on the market
throughout the session. Prices during the
day moved over a ran;re of from V4c to e.
One of the principal factors In the advance
was foreign cables telling of higher prices
for the grain In Liverpool and an advance
In Argentina values. A comparative fall
ing 011 in arrivals at shipping points added
to the bullishness, through Its hint of
lighter receipts to come. May touched
$1.11 and later dropped to $1.11, closing
strong at c to c higher than yesterday's
final figures, at $l.llVcU-ll1..
Corn prices started comparatively strong,
helped by the advancing wheat market.
The close was weak at nearly the low
points of the day, with May He lower than
yesterday's final figures, at 6c'4c. ,
Trade In oats exhibited the general char
acteristics of the corn market, advancing
early and falling off later. May touched
Wta and fell off to , closing at U'tH'tc,
c to He lower thai yesterday's final
figures.
A noticeable effect of the country-wide
agitation against the high meat prices wax
Been In a marked decline In provision
values. In the iurrent month products
pork closed at 1.VS0, 36a lower; lard at
$12.15, 30c lower, and ribs at $11. bl. 42S40
lower than yesterday's final figures. Liqui
dation and short selling was the order of
the day In the provisions pit and the fu
tures declined to a close ranging from lZStc
to 70o lower than yesterday's final quota
tions. The final prices for the may products
were: Pork. -'1.25; lard. $11.85; rlba, $11.37'.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

NEW YORK, Jan. 22. -There was a dls
position to press Mocks for sale to take
profits on the stock rosrket today, liven
where there was a further rush of buying
ord rs they were met by selling orders i.f
thst character, with little effect on prices.
The coming dividend action on I'nlted
Slates Steel at next Tuesday's quarterly
meeting aosoroed a large share or specula
tlve surmise. The rumor that showed most
vitality land persistence was that an extra
dividend In addition to the regular 1 per
cnt quarterly would be declared surriclent
to briiig the distribution for the calendar
year up to 4 per cent. This would call for
three-fourths of 1 per cent besides tho 1
per cent regular dividend. The prevalence
of thla rumor proved a powerful Incentive
to speculative buying of the stock and
carried the price up to 69, a rise of 74 over
the low price touched In the slump on
Wednesday. The force of this movement
pulled prices up from the depression caused
by the heavy selling of the earlier part of
the session.
Belated covering of shorts put out during
the demoralised period of the market earlier
in tne week was a material factor In carry
Ing prices upwards toward the closn of
the day. The abrupt Interruption to tho
rise on unltd States Steel which caucen
the stock to reset over 2 points, wiping out
Its rapid advance, made the closing tore
very unsettled.
The suprlse In the bank statement vtss
the $20,000.00 loans expansion reported by
the clearing house banks. This showing Is
a revelation of the heavy requirements of
syndicate subscriptions during the ween, in
the period of rapid curtailment of stock
market loans.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, par
value, $1,765,000. United Stats 2s have de

BERLIN, Jan. 22. The rise In the private
discount rate from 24 to 3 per cent today
was due to the German Imperial bank of
fering treasury bills for rediscount. The
amount placed. It Is estimated, ranges
from $6,2o0,000 to $10,000,000. This Is the
bank's usual method of keeping control of
the market by preventing a too heavy fall
In market rates like the Bank of England
selling consols. In view of the present
ease of money a, further reduction In tha
Imperial bank's rate is probable early in
February.

CATTLE Receipts of cattle today num
bered only two cars, which was not enough
to make any showing whatever on tne
market. Receipts for the week have also
been moderate, showing a falling off of
over 7,000 head as compared with last week
and of nearly 6,000 head as compared with
a year ago.
The week opened on beef steers with a
somewhat lower market, but prices firmed
up hvter on and yesterday's early market
looked like the week' would close 104vl5c
higher, but the market ended very badly,
so that at present writing the general mar
ket is no better than It was last week.
The market on cows and heifers has fol
lowed very closely after the beef steer mar
ket, and it, too, Is no better than steady
with last week's close on the general run
of stock, although here and there some
thing especially choice might sell a little
higher.
Stockers and feeders have been In very
light supply, and. owing to that fact,
prices have firmed up a little, being 10 15c
higher than last week's close. ' Still the
demand is not very aotlve, and It Is evi
dent that the country Ib not disposed to
feed very many cattle under present con
ditions. The agitation that has been started
In different sections of the country against
high priced beef Is generally expected to
result In a big slump In the cattle market.
This will naturally dlscournge still further
tne teeaing 01 cattle, as the country will
not be disposed to feed high priced corn to
low priced stock. This will naturally
shorten the supply of fat stock for the
coming fall and have a tendency to stiffen
prices then.

HOOS Today's run' was by no 'means
liberal, but' lower advlree from eastern
points exerted a rather depressing influence
upon the local demand and It was well
along; In the morning before enough hogs
had been sold to give anything like a
broad Idea of the general situation. About
fifty-five loads wers expected and forty
five loads had been yarded up till 11
o'clock. Fifteen or twenty of these were
bought up by shippers on the early market
at prices that looked to be just about
steady with yesterday's bulk. '
Later In the morning after packers had
started out to fill their orders bids dropped
to light around a nickel lower than the
opening and the demand did not appear to
be very broad at tiie lower offers. Move
ment, as well, wa slow and dull, but mn.t
sales showed up pretty close to 6c lower
ana tne later market is quotable on this
basis, A considerable portion of the hogs
sold from $8.25 to $8.35, with the larger
strings at the loner fla-urea.
Supplies for the week total about 40,000
iienu, aooui neaa less tnan the count
of last week and almost 21,000 head less
than the number received during the same
week last year. Aside from the curtailed
receipts, It might also be well to review
in short some of the more Important fea
tures of the trade.
in point of prices, the decline for the
week Is right around 10ril5c with the break,
tmslly underweight kinds. Stock of the
latter description has been meeting with
reluctant demand at all times and naturally
has suffered more than tha better kind's
of butcher weights. On tne other 'hand,
selected material carrying flesh and finish
haa been selling freely at very satisfac
tory prices; In fact, choice, toppy stuff is
little, If any, lower than a week ago. Ship
ping demand for good hogs-has been espe
cially broad. '

SHEEP The inaik t was practically bare
of supplies today, as Is usually the caae
on a Saturday and prices remained nom
inally steady.
Supplies for the week total almost 29,0ij0
head, or' about 3,000 head less than the
total number received last week. Average
quality on most days has been decidedly
common and as paokers are at no time
very anxious for the unfinished and short
fed grades of sheep and lambs, the tone to
trade haa been rather dull than otherwise.
Oood western lambs and sheep that carry
plenty of "kill' are closing about 10l5c
higher than the close of last week, while
common and medium strings are al) the
way from weak to $60 lower. Full loads of
fed western lambs sold aa high as $8.60
during the last two or thrsa days, but it
would take something extra prima In this
line to command $8.65 or better.
There have not been many yearlings in
cluded In offerings lately, but tha Inquiry
for this class of stock appears to be gen
erous and choice light weights would prob
ably sell pretty close to fair tiuallty lamb
stuff. Ewes of a good kind are wanted at
quotably strong prices, but the in-between
strings have been mors or less neglected
recently.
Tha volume of feeder trade continues
light, with values generally In about tha
same notches as fair quality killers.

at tho Commercial club, at which steps
were taken to organise ths employers of
labor in ths city for ths purpose of stand

any labor difficulties when the building

The employers state that tha intention is
not to antagonize union labor, but to taks
steps to 1 tee that thers is an abundant .
supply of labor to meet tho demand, and
whether that labor Is union or non-union
depends upon tho condition of the labor

Aberdeen for signatures opposing the em
ployment of union labor. Tho agreement
was to become effective when signed by
100 employers. Whether the meeting at the
Commercial ' club was the outcome of the
earlier petition Is unknown. '
