sharply am.- the first trades to new low
lew I on further liquidation of Ion stuff.
The market steadied later, an shotta were
Incllncrt to take profit ami even their
trades before the hullilay. There Is, how
ever, no basis for anv material advance,
a yet the uclKht of supplies anil the lack
of demand continues to be the ruling In
fluence. Corn hulls were discouraged. News Is
to the effect that conditions are bulliHh. so
far in the corn market Itself Is concerned,
but It seems to be too much of an uphill
fight to hold values In face of the heavy
declining markets for other cereals, ami
also In Iiok products. Receipts are attain

CHICAGO! Feb. 11.-F.xtenslve profit tak
ing by shorts In view of the forty-eight
hour holiday ahead acted as an oflset In
part today for stop-loss selling of whent
by holders fearful of reciprocity. The close
was fairly steady at a net decline of V" Ve
to 'tjo. Corn finished a shade above last
night, oats up VtiVac to ',,c and provisions
tc to 7V"10o down.
Wheat was unloaded heavily during the
early part of the day. hut after a price
reaction set In. the helling was less free.
The bearish feeling at the outset had sev
eral reasons aside from the tariff situation.
Rains In the southwest extended from Kan
sas and Missouri to the gulf and materially
helped relieve the drouth. 1-arge world ship
ments worked also against the bulls. Other
causes tending to pull down the market
wera favorable European crop advices and
cheap Russian and Australian offers. Light
ness of primary receipts afforded a little
comfort to owners. May ranged from 92'4c
to 83't.c, closing Vqc off at 27c.
Official forecast of unsettled weather
made that cereal firm after a period of
weakness. May varied between 4x411 4S54,c
and 4SV?4!c, with the close steady and a
hade up at 4K7,c. Cash corn was In mod
erate demand. No. 2 yellow finished at 474r
47c.
oats broke sharply at the openlne. but
rallied because of a great volume of cover
ing on the part of shorts. Mav hud as
high and low points 31V'i31'4c, cioslng
Vo up at aiac.
lYospects of a good supply of hogs during
the coming week brought out liberal offer
ings of products. The outcome was a net
decline all around pork 5c, lurd 5u7Hc and
ribs 247V.

the last week or two, the corporation has
blown several finances and re-employed
In the neighborhood of lo.OuO.
This Week Increased orders and specifica
tions for locomotives and cars were re
ceived and thus the equipment Industry
has a better future ahead of It. after pro
longed dullness. The improvement In tho
steel trade, was even more marked, with
an Increasing demand for finished products
generally, 'the gain In figures was rep
resented by an Increase In the unfilled
orders of the Cnlted States Steel cor
poration at the close of January of 43ii.bi2
tons, ns compared with those at the end
of December. This is the first Increase
In months and derives its Importance from
the fact that it murks the turn In the
steel industry from depression to reviving
activity.
Crop ( ondltions Favorable.
Crop conditions are favorable for con
tinued prosperity in the agricultural world.
The slight decline In the price of cotton
had the effect of drawing Increased orders
from foreign centers, which was a stimulus
to export trade.
The copper producers' statement for the
Week was not so good. Its best feature
was an apparent further decrease in
production during January, amounting to
i.tii0,i0u pounds; hut the chum-en are that
this has been owing more to the weakness
of the metal market than to any recognition
by producers of the desirability of curtail
ment, so much discussed last year. On the
other hand domestic deliveries were the
smallest set forth for any month in the
records of the producers' association, while
exports shrank 3i,000,uixi pounds. The result
of these changes was an Increase in
domestic stocks at the end of January of
about 2O.ou0.000 pounds.
The collapse of the bull speculation In
several commodities, especially coffee, cot
ton and wheat, means a reduction In the
cost of living. The adoption hv congress
of the reciprocity agreement with Canada
would lead to a still further reduction,
and the significance of all this lies In the
fact that it would bring contentment to
the wage earners of the country and pre
vent that almost constant demand for In
creased wuges, which has become a serious
problem to corporation managers.
The Money Situation.
The monetary situation has been gen
erally ravorable to borrowers and it looks
tfciy much as if oroHoectlv i-ullr,,,i
financing would bo carried to a success- i
rui issue and at lower interest rates than
ut the close of 1910. The decline in dis
count rates abroad at such prominent
Hnunclal centers us London, carls unit
Reiiln is encouraging to American corpor
ations and It certainly looks as if Europe
would take considerable amounts of
American securities In the next month or
two. Our own money market bus been
very easy with a free supply of capital,
except for long maturities and these are
held more or less firmly, largely because
or the expectation that the treasury will
sooner or later place on the market $100,
000 of Panama canal bonds. The ab
sorption or funds by the treasury would
exert a greater influence in hardening
nmney rates than the absorption by cor
porations. The question of the future of
the money market, therefore, Is ltkuly to
loom Into greater prominence before long,
as active treasury and corporation bor
rowing in connection with trade improve
ment will deplete bunk reserves.
Missouri Pacific Soaring.
Trading was dull and mostly profes
sional on the stock market today. Espe
cially was this the case in the closing
hour of business. This came at the close
of an Inactive session.
Although the market was dull In the
rirst hour or so, Us tone was good. Price
changes were small, but they were gen
erally on the side of improvment and a
complete absence of pressure suggests
that the decline of the last half hour of
Hrlday had resulted from bear selling and
that the bears were unwilling to attempt
to force mil iters further.
A new high record for the present move
ment was made by Missouri Factic ana
lexas Pucifie was strong in sympathy. He-
" n -i-cBi.u lu un Krowinir Mfrnni.n I tul
a change In the management of these roads
would soon occur. For upwards of a quar
ter of an hour trading was dormant. This
was unusual and appeared to Indicate that
market sources were pretty evenly ral-am-ed.
Strength In consolidated gas was
a feature. It resulted in large part from
buying to anticipate the dividend action
next week.

The only Incident of Imnnrtano in ,,.!
aorouu touay was another somewhat
unexpected foreign requisition on London's
gold supply. The government gave out
today Its figures on our country's agri
cultural exports In January and they were
highly Interesting. There was. as lg usual
... inai monm. a considerable decrease
from December. but the value of last
month's shipments of the sort ran $41 6oj -000

CATTLE--There was the usual lack of
cattle on sale this morning, only two cars
being reported in. The total for the week
foots up 18.449 head, a falling off 01 about
4,iW head, as compared with a week ago
and of about l.ouu head as compared with
a year ago. The quality of the cattle com
ing to market has been on most nays very
crulnary, comparatively few really good
finished Steel-H l.eitiu- Included In thM t-uns i
'I he lluhlpl- rA,-i.itu uumu,l t,. ul I rYiii it. I a !
the trade with the result that the market
opened sharply on beef steers) at the be
ginning ot the week and continued strong
until the latter half of tho week when
there was a slight easing ofT In prices.
Still after allowing for any weakness that
may have occurred the market is ut the
close of the week 25c higher than it was
at the close of last week, it will he temein
bered that last week s market closea gen
erally 2oc lower. Thereiore the auvunce
this week makes up lor the loss last week
and carries prices back to a point aooul as
high as haa been reached tor some lime
time back.
Cows and heifers have advanced In about
the same proportion as beef steers, they too
being generally quoted ns Lj Uglier than
last week. Bulla and stags have gradually
strengthened up until they are safely lbit
25c higher than the low point at last week's
close. Veal calves are a shade stronger
than they were, good ones selling up aa
high aa $8 per hundred.
The better grades of stockers and feeders
were very strong the early part of the
week and sold very readily. During the
latter part of the week the country de
mand, proving rather disappointing, the
traue siowea up, prices becoming, It any-
tntng, a utile
easier even on me better
grades, while the medium to common kinds
closed l'ltjlbv lower during the last two
days of the week. Half fat cattle have
been selling to better advantage to the
packers this week and feeder buyers have
consequently secured comparatively lew
of that class of cattle. It Is safe to add
that stock cattle and feeders of all kinds
are commanding strong prices as com
pared with the market on killers.

1o(j8 An outlook for a burdensome sup
ply of hogs at all points next week, drawn
from advance car orders, knocked most of
the support from under the trade this
morning. Prices early were all of lOijlic
lower, but demand was Black at these re
duitiuns and the market grew steadily
woise. Late sales showed 2itf25c. declines
wnn extreme close at bottom.
Receipts were normal for a Saturduv,
but this condition was Ignored by all
classes of buyers and movement was made
under protest from start to finish. Ship
pers produced only such orders as were
actually filed by their clients ho that the
i-peculatlve demand was practically dead.
( learance was late, tue term applying to
bulk rather than total rece'. '
Heavy animals, especially suited for lard
manufacture, moved at $7.15 and less, or
dinary mixed Mild around $7.20 and best
bacon grades reached J.'.So. I nese prices,
as well as average cost, are about 20c
lower than sales a week ago. Receipts
have been seasonably normal oh most days
with trend to trade erratic.

than anv olni r class of killers and the gen

sales ln 1 lu-ai loan, ins of the trade.
Wethers were vry scarce at all times and
the percentage of yearling waa also small.
It has been a very good week In sheep
and moat of the belter grades of live mut
ton are closing at quarter advances. Much
of this Improvement was put on after mid
week. a earlv (rices, while stronger, were
due to bullish loi al conditions that had to
lie discredited more or less beiaose. of their
lack of ecope Choice ewes are closing
around $4 r. which is highest prlca paid
In eteritl weeks. Prime gathers would
prohal.it sell as high as t.3i. but none were
at nllable.
Tone to lambs was uncertain throughout
as Iti'iutry seemed to center on go.nl ewes.
Wednesday's market was the best, tops
reaching .16 2:.. Since that time demand has
been dull and draggy. the trade closing on

might possible sell at Ji.Ouat present would
hate to be extra good In every respect
