There was a good demand from both packers and shipping buyers, and with favorable reports from outside points, the market was generally steady on anything at all useful either In the way ot beet steers or butoher stock. Some of the leas desirable offerings had to go at shaded figures, but the gen eral trade for killing stuff was not ma terially different from the close of last week. Supplies ot stock cattle snd feed ing steers were not very extensive, and there was a good demand for them from both yard traders and country buyers, so that prices were firmly held and the movement reasonably active from start to finish.

Notwithstanding the big receipts pulled down grain values todsy, the effect was subsequently more than over come by adverse weather conditions and by the lifting of embargoes on various railway lines from here to the Atlantic seaboard. Corn closed firm, tl.27V. March, and fl.25Ti, May, the ssme as Saturdny's finish, to Ho higher. Oats gained HO He. In pro visions there was a setback ranging from 13Hc to fl. Receipts of grsln were the heaviest yet this season, and in corn arrivals at primary centers were mora than double last year's figures. A further bearish factor was Pres ident Wilson's proclamation disapproving a higher guaranteed price on wheat. About the middle of the session, however, sentiment changed and thereafter the market tended upward. Storms which might retard the crop movement were reported In Iowa and other Important states. Opening of new freight outlets to the east counted likewise as a strengthener of values. Oats paralleled the action of corn. There was much short covering as s result of a ruling at Minneapolis that settlement of de faults would be based somewhat on ths value of cash oats In all markets.
