HOOS There waa a verr fair run ot
hogs on hand and despite the fact that
sunnllea have been liberal all week trad
opened sharply higher. Other polritB re
ported stronger prospects and snippers
and one or two of the packers started In
rluht from the iumD buvina on a tuny
10c higher basis. Before much sold this
way, however, keen competition put
prices up to the 18 15c higher notch and
bulk of the supply moved that way.
Close waa strong and active and a good
clearance was made long before 8. an.
Prii-ea indiv are a flat 2uc bin her than
they were a week ago and despite the
fact that receipts this montn are tar
larger than for any previous December
current values are close to A Quarter
higher than prices at the opening of the
month. Bulk tooay moven at imkuiiw,
long strings selling at trt.50"u.66, while
tops brought t;.t5, the highest price paid
since December 4, and as high as any
thing has sold this month. Best lights
have shown the most of the advance thla
week, although the commoner light and
. mixed
kinds have oeen slow saie most
11 week, and up until today dull close
have been the rule,
F.atlmated receipts were 146 car, or
10.4it head, making the total for the
week something like 61.U2A head. Thla ii
15. 0m entailer than last week and about
6.5 short of two weeks ago, but 17.500
more than were received during th
corresponding period last year.
