of cattle today, about 4,000 head, and qual
ity was pretty much the same as on Mon
day and Tuesday. The market presented
no new featurse, and for the most part beef
steers and cows sold In about the same
.notches as on Tuesday's early trade. De
mand seemed to be a lltle broader, and as
supplies were limited the movement was
fairly active and prices anywhere from
steady to a shade lower on both beef steers
and butcher stock. Blockers and feeders
met with the usual good Inquiry and desir
able grades ruled fully steady, while the
plain light and medium weight stuff was
hard to move at more or less shaded figures.

Hogs Receipts of hogs continued heavy
and shippers bought a few odd loads on
the early rounds paying the top of $16.80
during the first session, this figure being
36c lower than the best prlos yesterday. Out
side of these few sales there was nothing
doing as packers were holding off and had
not made any bids. The bulk of ths hogs
was still in first hands at a late hour. Ths
prospectiv bulk will sell at $15.60 16.76.
Sheep Sheep and lamb receipts continued
light. No Improvement In the refrigerator
car shortage made trade in killers very dull,
little finding an outlet on the early rounds.
What bidding was dons looked about steady
on the light and handy weight lambs, but
ths big bulk was In-between and uneven
grades, and they found slow sale. Heavy
lambs sold at $15.76. Sheep were scarce and
In fairly good demand at about steady prices
nothing of consequence changing bands
early. Feeders were In good demand and
prices fully steady, both outside and local
buyers bidding on anything available. Best
feeders are quotabls up to $16.60.

NEW YORTSTOCKS
Recent Advances Are Aug
mented by Special Issues,
Boosted ly Dividends and
Stimulated by Pools.
New York. Feb. $7. Aided by several in
creased dtviUi'mls and stimulated by pools
and related professional Interests, today's
stock market augmented recent advances
In a number of spectal Issues.
Continental Can directors increased the
common dividend from 6 to 6 per rent
annually, and Chandler Motors was ad
vanced from an 8 to 12 per cent basis.
Intimations that other Industrial companies
arc-contemplating similar action were cred
IteJ because of recent large returns.
Additional factors of favorable Import In
cluded the Improved state of the iron and
steol Industry as Indicated by the marked
increase of capacity reported by the United
Slates Steel corporation and advices from
Mexico, which gave Impetus to the oil divi
sion. Transcontinental and coalers were the
foremost feature of the railway division, at
gKlns of 1 to ! points, minor issues such as
Missouri Pacific preferred, Wabash and
Erles also responding to a moderate in
quiry. Utilities were more active than usual,
Interest centering In Peoplts Gas, Consoli
dated Oas and American Telephone. Motors
and Tobaccos were heavy at all times, the
latter yielding 2 to 6 points in connection
with proposed stork Issues.
United States Steel's sharp reaction with
coppers brought some Irregularity In the
last hour, leaders forfeiting 1 to 2 points.
Steel closed at a net loss of 1 points.
Total sales amounted to 725,000 shares.
Bonds were Irregular, speculative rails
showing heaviness. Liberty issues also
eased. Total sales (par value) aggregated
$4,050,000.
Old United States 3's declined 4 per cent
on call, but the several Panama Issues rose
M to 1 per cent.

New York Coffee Market.
New York, Feb. 27. Coffee The mar
ket for coffee futures continued quiet but
generally tteady with prices showing fur
ther advances on covering snd a moderate
demand from trade sources. It Is supposed
that recent liquidation has left a firmer
technical position and that part of ths de
mand reflects covering of hedges against
sales of spot coffee from stocks or afloat.
The opening today was 3 to 6 points higher,
with May selling up to 8.45c and September
to 8.65c during the late trading or about 11
to 12 points net higher. Last prices were a
point or two off from the best under realiz
ing but showed a net gain of 7 to 9 polnlts.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Grain Values Harden, Due to Cessation of
Peace Talk.
Chicago, Feb. 87, Hardening of grain
values today accompanied a cessation of
peace gossip.. Corn closed steady at a net
advance of a shads, with March $1.37
and May $1.26 1.27. Oat gained c
Provisions finished 2027o down.
Subsidence of talk about a possibility of
the von Hertllng address affording some
prospect of an early end of hostilities put
the bears at a disadvantage In the corn
market throughout the day., Values were
strengthened b:' notice from the directors
of ths exchsnga that further trading In the
February delivery had been prohibited and
that settlements would have to be made at
the maximum prlco allowed for futures,
$1.2$ a bushel. In the late dealings, hew
ever, the fact that the weather was excel
lent for a heavy movement of corn from
rural sources to primary centers acted as a
weight on pi Ices.
Ths likelihood of a falling off In receipts
tended to stimulate demand for oats. It
was said producers and railroads were both
giving preference to the handling of corn.
Sharp breaks In ths pries of hogs weak
ened provisions. Much sslllng was also
caused by a report that ths government al
lotment of March rontracts had been of less
volume than expected.
