Receipts for the week have been fair; approximately 31,700 head or about 1,000 leas than last week, but 3.000 more than for the corresponding week year ago. Severe winter weather and con gested railroad transportations have been re sponsible for a very uncertain and Irregular fat cattle market all week. Dulng the early halt of the week with alight indications of a loosening of the railroad tleup demand was active and prices for both beef steers and cow stuff advanced fully 36 50a During the latter half of the week, however, the demand wa somewhat restricted and trade slow at mors or lees shaded prices. In the main, however, cows and heifers are quot ably 2640o highet than a week ago, and there haa been nearly as much advance In the stackers and feeders under the Influ ence of very moderate receipts, and a very fair mld'santer demand from the country.

Loosening of bearish confidence regarding the outlook for Deace did a good deal today to strengthen the corn market. The outcome was a firm close o to e net higher, with March 1.27 and May $1.24 1.25. Oats gained o to c, and provisions 17c to 37c Throughout the day corn had an upward tendency that especially reflected disap pointment of traders who have looked for swift sensational developments from Ger man economlo andi political troubles, and who therefore expected quick Indications that tha end of the war was not far dis tant. The fact too that receipts here In stead of being enlarged were even smaller than has been the rule of late counted alio against would-be eller. On ' the other hand, weather conditions eemed the best in a long while, and there was general hope that a broadening of the crop movement although deferred would soon become a substantial factor. Week-end adjustment of trades, however, kept the market on the upgrade to the end. Profit taking by shorts was mainly re sponsible for the advance of oats. The In centive for action on the part of shorts was an unusual scantiness ot offering. Provi sions rose with hog and because of the bullish ahowlng ot warehouse stocks In Chi cago.

General news was variable, Baltimore Jk Ohio's adverse statement ot December earnings being offset by the annual report' of the Goodrich company, which showed a material Increase in net profits. Trade re port, as a whole, however, stressed the un favorable weather conditions and serious freight congestion. The chief feature of th weekly bank statement was a furtlier actual expansion of loans by over $111,000,000.) making an aggregate of $190,000,000 for the past fort night.
