laat year.
Prlcea were fully lto higher on tha ear
lier trade today, though like yeaterday, part
of the advance waa loot on tha eloao. Ship
pars bought about their uaual quota, paying
10 Olio to poaalbly loo higher. Tho killer
trade waa a little dreggy at tho outaat, but
movement started la pretty fair aeaaoa at
generally llo higher prlcea.
One packer waa fighting tho advanos and
aa waa the case yeeterday aellera were un
able to '.effect a clearance at tha early ad
vance. With between thirty and forty car,
atltl unaold and .-,ly one packer aull In
the trade who really needed hoga, blda
dropped to a 100 higher baala. Sellers who
atill had hogs triad hard to get early prlcea
for them, and for a while tho market waa
pretty dead, but In the end tho buyers had
their way, buying the remelnder of the aup
ply about a dims higher than yesterday, or
fully a nickel below morning tlgureo. All
recorda were again amaahed. Bulk sold at
lll.75014.lt, with nulla a ahowing at 111.10
and aa extreme too 01 115.05,
One packer refuaed to follow tha advanoo
early, and thla made the later rounda alow,
but while sellers had to tight hard to get
morning prices on the laat thirty or forty
cara. In the end everything except a few
scattering loada waa oteaaed ap without
much change In valuea, Oa paper laat
salea did uot took quite aa good - aa early,
but naturally the beBt hoga Bold on the
opening and, conaldertng thla, the close
ehowed ao Quotable change.
The market averaged 110 higher than
ycaterday, and the bulk, average coat and
top were the hlgheet aver recorded here.
Moat of tha aalea were made at a spread
of ll4.7O01i.OO, and tho extreme top

New Tork, March 10. Tomorrow Brad-
alraat will Bay: Batter weather, tha ap
proach of Eaater, large government buying
for army and navy account and heavy pur
chasing power of the publio at large con-
atltuta the atlmulatlng teaturea which make
for exceptional activity in nearly every llno
of trade to swell the total volume at most
centera above last yaar'a levels. At a great
many marketa there is talk ot continued
conservation ae to tar future buying, but
thla la abaolutely bobbM In the Iron and
ateel trade which notea new high levels of
prices reached and rarely noted In cotton
and woolen gooda, which are etrong with
an upward tendency for nearby needa and
aupported by tha atrengih of the raw ma
terlala, ao far aa the future la oonoerned.
Frequent mention ts made, too, of tha actual
volume of trade not being larger than a
year ago, but added to thlo la tha atatement
that the higher levels of all prices make for
a greater financial turnover. Thfs matter
of high prtoes, la tact, seems to be the key
of the situation and bulks larger by far In

gradea.
A few or tne eariy aaiee oi oaia wera
made at ateady prlcea, but the market
onerallv waa ouoted from a Quarter to
a half cent lower, with the bulk of tha No.
white eamplee eelllng at 9ic and a few
going at 64 464
Rye waa atrong at an advance of l-c
and there waa an excellent demand for thla
cereal at the prevailing market prtcea.

and good enormoue bank clearance attest

were among the favorable Incldenta which
imparted occasional atrength to today'a Ir
regular market, Greater galna were again
registered, however, by atocka under profes

Neutralising factora which manifested
themselves in the later operations. Included
reviews of the crop altuatlon by accepted
authorities, dlscloelnf aertoue damage in
western and southwestern states, deteriora
tion in some Instances being reported at as
much aa 30 per cent. The International
crisis, aa outlined In Germany's reiteration
of nor submarine policy, also caused aome
confusion of sentiment.
United tStates Steel figured to a much
smaller extent In the day's business, there
being a marked absence of tha usual in
dividual dealings In that issue. From Its
best price of llb Steel gradually fell back
over a point, but cloaed at 114, a net gain
of 44 of a point.
Bflthie&eiu steel, Bioas-snenieia steel and
Virginia? Iran also scored extreme galna of
2 to e polnta, but thepe were soon loet In
part or whole, otner munitions ana equip
menta traversed a more narrow course with
metals, leather and minor apeclal ties,
Shippings and motors were aold after
brief gains with oils and a few utilities.
Wilson Packing repeated Its recent per
formance of rising to a new record, gaining
ihi polnta at M, and. Ohio Uaa waa among
