Today’s Market Gossip
The copper market at New York opened
strong with an increase of another %c
a pound on domestic sales, making price
for first quarter domestic deliveries 19%c
a pound.
Stock of provisions at six principal
western markets show the following
changes fpr the month of December.
Pork increased 23,000 barrels, lard in
creased 6,000.000 pouyirts. Cut meats In
creased 52,000,000 pounds.
Radio Corporation with $20,000,000 cap
ital plans world wide wireless service
and will take over Marconi Wireless Cos.
of America. The General Electric is sAid
to be Interested In the new company.
Wire from Chicago says that 200 cars
of corn and 100 cars of oats is dis
tinctly light for two days’ receipts. Some
buying of May oats at Minneapolis and
Chicago which looks like export. No
weakness apparent in the market.
Wire from Chicago says that as a rule
cash markets are neglected on the clos
ing day of the week in anticipation of
(wo days accumulations on Monday’s
market. Despite the popular opinion
that receipts will show a good increase
this week, cash corn of the better sort
was in good demand on Saturday’s mar
ket at higher prices. Low temperatures
now prevailing will add to the difficulties
of movement and thereby decrease the re
ceipts.
Road legislation was the paramount is
sue of yesterday, said a market letter by
wire from New York. An unofficial rep
resentative of England suggests a loan
of such size as to make It appear lm
possible. The suggestion, .however, Is of
value to this extent, as showing the great
need for large credits which In turn
means high rates. As'de from any tem
porary benefit that may result from an
easier money condition for a while or
from a decision of the supreme court on
the tax matter, the real developments
this year will rest more largely on con
gressional action In relation to rail
roads. This Is fundamental as It in
volves the solvency of the greatest busi
ness In the country. Market has had
good undertone past week and some fur
ther improvement likely before any ma
terial reaction.

The effect of the Inexorable rule of
supply and demand was reflected very
clearly in the local nog market on Tues
day when 16.000 hogs, an increase of 25
ner cent over yesterday, was received.
Prices declined 25c. At first It appeared
that there would be a good many more
hogs than could be sold, but finally there
was a satisfactory clearance, 7,000 or
more, going to local Interests.
The predominating prices were sls for
the light hogs and $14.90 for the good
kinds averaging 225 pounds up. There
were a few sales of selected lightweights
at $15.10 and the pinnacle price of the
day was $15.15, only 20c lower than the
day before. The outside competition for
good pigs sold that class of stock at
the same price as others, sls down and
sows were about 25c lower at sl4 down.
Cattle.
In proportion to the receipts of hogs
there were fewer cattle than usual, but
apparently the run of 1,400 was equal to
the present requirements of the trade
and there was not an opportunity to
realize a quotable advance In prices.
It was admitted that the steer cattle sold
to a little better advantage than they
have for several days, but not particular
ly higher und there was much favorable
comment on the market for she cattle.
Indeed, there were a number of estimates
Indicating that the heifers and cows were
a little higher and others admitted that
any weakness in affairs on Monday had
been fully overcome. There was a cor
responding satisfactory market for bulls
and more or less advance In prices of
calves. There were more of the best
veals sold up to s2l. Feeding cattle sold
usually at the recent standard of prices,
but the demand from the rural districts
was rather limited.
BHUEP.
The Tuesday market for live mutton
stock was featured by the sale of .i
small lot of lambs at $18.25, the highest
they have sold for nine months and
also bv the sale of a small lot of strictly
choice' sheep at $lO. The practical top
price lor lambs was $lB and for sheep $9.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JANUARY 6, 1920.
On Commission Row
Trade good yesterday. Wanner weather
helped snipping and dealers were busy
with an accumulation of orders left
from last week when the weather was so
severe as to make shipping hazardous.
Black figs from California were an ar
rival yesterday. These are a fancy table
fig that is rarely seen iu this market.
Dealers priced them at 25 cent sa pound.
Northern potatoes were advanced to*
$4.25 a hundredweight yesterday. Price at
shipping point makes this increase Im
perative, dealers say. Farmers are get
ting $2 a bushel for their crop. This
makes the cost laid down In Indianapolis
around $4.
No dates are on the local market. Holi
day trade cleaned up stocks. Dealers say
shipments are rolling this way now and
will be in this week. Price will remain
unchanged.
Michigan navy beans advanced yester
day to 8% cents a pound. There Is a
firmer tone to all beans, dealers say,
brought on by the cold weather partly,
which has stimulated demand.

eastern Manitoba, and extends thence
southward across the plains tn New
Mexico. Temperatures are higher in
front of the depression over the Missis
sippi river states, and then eastward,
but the readings in the east are still
somewhat below the seasonal normal.
Precipitation has occurred In a broad
belt from the upper Mississippi valley to
the west gulf coast, being In the form of
light snow In the north and heavy rains
In the south. Rain or suow has also
fallen over much of the northern Rocky
and north Pacific territory. Monday the
snow covering the central valleys extend
ed as far south as the Ohio river and to
Oklahoma and northern Arkansas, but
the only material deposits reported were
from 3 te 9 Inches between the western
lakes and the northern Red river valley.

Various speakers protested that farm
ers have not been given a square deal.
It was pointed ont that hog prices
dropped sl2 on the 100 pounds causing
enormous losses to farmers who had been
feeding them high priced feed. They
oonetnded that the consumer did not reap
the benefit of this reduction.
A co-operative company of farmers la
succeeding in Nebraska, Maurice Doug
las, second vice president of the federa
tion. reported. Mr. Douglas has Just re
turned from Omaha, where he inspected
the concern.
