Hogs Today's hog receipts were the
Hghtest of the week to date, and were Just
lair for a Friday, ninety-six oars, or about
7,100 head being reported in. The week's
total of 62.060 head la 17,000 larger than
a week ago, 0,600 heavier than two weeks
ago and an lncreaaa of nearly 0,000 over
the corresponding daya last year.
Prices again showed a lower tendency and
the undertone waa weak, though on the big
end of the offerings there was no such de
cline, as that registered yesterday and the
day before. On opening rounds shippers,
anticipating that light recslpta would have
a strengthening tendency, paid prices that'
were fully steady to, If anything, a little
d is ner.
Packers, howsver, after making a few
steady purchases, slipped on their early bids
and later on when vuik of the offerings
was casnea it was at naurea that aa a
general thing were steady to a nlokel lower.
Despite the moderate also of sudd lies of
ferings seemed to be larger than require
ments and the close was alow at the day'a
lowest prices. At noon there were atl 11
around a dosea loads unsold. The best bids
sellers could get on these were fully 10c
lower than yesterday's aversge trade.

Be lower. Earlier sales were largely made
at $16.40016.7$, and a top of $16.80 was

not far from a Quarter lower than the close

Sheen The course ef the lamb market nn
early founds was much like Thursday's.
Packers started out bidding quite a little
lower on all kinds, but made their first
purchases generally steady, buying two
loads of clipped weatern lamb at $10.86 and
(It. 19.
unable te get bids on spring lambs. wlch
made up a big part of the run. up to yes-
israaya levels, sellers nung on. but instead
of raising their early offers packers later
lowered them, and up tn midday four cars
of California spring lambs remained In the
pens under sharply lower offers. In fact
aoma of them that were offered to packers
a flat quarter lower than yesterday were
refused. Packers said tha weakness waa
mainly due to the fact it hat prices have been
so much higher than eastern mutton trade
conditions warrant, but that the break to
dsy would not have been ao severe had
sellers not held onto their atuff ao long that
nuyers were forced to let their killing
gangs go.
No old sheep of any kind were here. Com
pared with a week ago closing sales of both
wooled and clipped lambs are strong to if
anything a little hiaher. Tons show aulte
a little higher. Tops show quite a little, -advance,
but most of this is due to improved
quality. Up to yesterday spring lambs were
tuny nan a aonar a Dove last week's close,
but the way buyers were acting today It
looked as though most if not all this ad
vance might be lost. Old sheep have been
too scarce to really make a market, but are
nominally quotable fully steady.

KstrmHte of Heavy Muring Wheat Yield Has
Bearish Kffet en Wheat Tradls.
Chicago, HI., May 15. Ultimate that the
combined domestic end spring crup yield of
wheat this season would bs 700,000,000 bush
els, and thus surpass the 110 total, had a
bearish effect on the market today. Prices
closed unsettled 4fce to 6U,o net lower with
July at and September at $1.88.
Other staples, too, suffered losses corn, He
to 4o, oata to llio and provisions
1IUC to 40C.
Downward swings In wheat values began
soon after the market opened. During tha
initial trading prices ahowed a temporary
disposition to rally from the decline which
had resulted from false rumors of a naval
victory, but the existing restrictions on new
buying oulrkly proved to be more than off'
set. Attention then turned mora and more
to tha excellent crop outlook, and specially
to advices showing improvement la the win
ter wheat region. The Kansas stale report
was bullish, but did not agree with private
reporla and was generally ignored.
Interest continued keen In regard to har
vest conditions for the new wheat crop. Ac
cording to the beat information at hand,
cutting In Texas will start in earnest wtlhlti
ten days and be general In two weeks. Aa
a rule the harvest there will be a little late.
The first wheat out was In an extremely
vy innt aim was something or an excep
tion, although there are numerous other dry
places on which early cutting will be don.
Corn prices broke sharply under the
weigm to general liquidating ssies by hold
era, who were discouraged aa a result of in
creased rural offerings. Crop reports from
the chief jiroductng atatea were In general
very bearish.
Oata duplicated the a e iron of corn. The
market seemed to have an support except
from profit-Inking shorts. I.owr quotation
on noga and grain weakened provisions, m-
aides, thre was complaint of the slowness
of cash demand.
