THE MvJXNING PALLADIUM THURSDAY, MARCH 8. 1906.
RICHMOND IS A
GOOD SOAP TOWN
A LOCAL JOBBER OBSERVES
THAT IT IS WELL DESERV
ING OP CLEANLINESS.
SOLD TWO CAR LOADS OF SOAP
Traveling Men Have No Trouble in
Selling New Brands of Wash
ing Powders.
"Richmond certainly deserves its
name as 'a "cleanly city," said a lo
cal jobber yesterday. "One of the
best selling articles we have is soap,
both toilet and for general use. Last
week we sold two carloads of soap
made by a certain Chicago firm in
this city alone and the demand by the
retailers for it is undiminished."
A local retail grocer bore out this
statement when seen yesterday, and
stated that it would be impossible to
state the number of bars of soap sold
in this city each month. There is al
so a great amount of washing pow
ders sold in Richmond. Traveling
men introducing a new brand of soap,
an exceptionally hard job, find the
retailers in this city easy to sell to,
and state that Richmond is one of the
greatest "soap" towns in the mid
dle states. 4 , , . . , , ,

CHICAGO MARKETS
Traders Favored Selling Side of
Wheat, but Commission House
Buying Held Market Up
About Steady in Corn
BRADSTREET'S VISIBLE.
New York, March 7. Brad
street' report on the visible
supply of grain shows: Wheat
east of Rockies, decrease, 9,000
bushels; Europe and afloat, in
crease, 4,400,000 bushels. To
tal increase, 4,391,000 bushels.
Corn, increase, 1,4G7,000 bush
els. Oats, decrease, 1,521,000
bushels.
Chicago, March 7. The wheat
market was inclined to be weak at
the opening and pit traders generally
were favorable to the selling side.
The fact that the Liverpool market
showed no advance coresponding to
the Yoc increase in price registered
here yesterday and favorable weath
er for the crop in the Southwest were
the main weakening influences. Com- j
mission houses were the principal !
buyers. May opened Vsi6 to 4
c lower.
Wet Weather for Corn.
The corn market was steady, chief
ly because of reports of wet weather
and hgher temperature. Cables
were firmer. May corn opened a shade
lower to a hade higher.
The market in the oats pit was
steady, chiefly because of small local
receipts. Trading was exceedingly
quiet. May oats opened unchanged
to a shade lower.
Because of a 5c to 10c decline in
the price of live hogs the provisions
market was easier. Offerings were
light and there was very little trad
ing.

INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS
Break in Hog Prices in Market De
cline Was Ten to Twenty Cents
Some Unsold Weaker
Feeling for Cattle.
Indianapolis, March 7. Receipts
7,500 hogs and 1,500 cattle against
5,095 hogs, 1,393 cattle and 23 sheep
a week ago, and 4,396 hogs, 1,100 cat
tle and 31 sheep a year ago.
"While the receipts of hogs were lib
eral in comparison with the supplies
recently, reports from other markets
were unfavorable to the selling side,
and with no urgent demand from out
side sources local packers were slow
in making their selections.
Salesmen accepted bids made by
shippers for a few loads of light
hogs, which were 10c and 15c lower
than equal kinds sold for yesterday.
After all the urgent orders had been
filled, Kingan & Co. took a hand in
the market at 10c and 20c lower for
all kinds. At the close of trade sev
eral loads were left in the pens un
sold. Sales ranged from $6.15 to
$6.45, with the bulk of the sales at
$6.20 and $6.35.
Female Cattle First to Sell.
The situation in the cattle market
was different from yesterday, receipts
being larger buyers took more time
in making their selections, which con
sister early in the day of the female
butcher stuff. Finally, however, the
market was fairly active and while
prices were not quotably lower, it
was evident there was a weaker feel
ing. There was a good clearance of
the female grades, but at a late hour
few steers had changed hands. "When
bids were made for steers they were
1015c lower in all cases. There was
a better demand from local buyers
for feeders and all that were here
sold at steady prices. Bulls were
steady and calves steady to strong
compared with yesterday.
Small Sheep Receipts.
Receipts of sheep and lambs were
small, not enough here to establish
new prices. Lambs sold as high as
$7.00 and good kinds at $6.75 with
culls as low as $5.00. Sheep are as
high as $5.00 and culls to good kinds
$3.004.50.
Lower For Horses.
About 400 head of horses arrived
for the closing auction sale, against
$5.50 the same time last week. The
supply was equal to the average
heretofore this season, and fully as
large as expected at this time in the
year. All kinds were represented,
and there were a few good horses in
the consignments. There was a bet
ter attendance of buyers than for
the initial sale, but prices were about
the same, the market being regarded
lower than last week.

AT OPENING
CHARACTER OF OPENING RISE
WAS SHOWN TO BE
FORCED.
MARKET LATER DECLINED
Stocks Were Offered Down Steadily
A Number Selling Much Below
Yesterday's Closing.
New York, March 7. Prices in the
stock market opened with substantial
advances all through the list in sym
pathy with the improved tone of the
London market. Anaconda rose 5V,
Reading, 1, Northern Pacific, Nor
folk & Western, Amalgamated Cop
per, Colorado Fuel, about a point
and Southern Pacific, Union Pacific
and Canadian Pacific large fractions.
The forced character of the open
ing rise was shown when the profes
sionals stopped bidding up stocks and
attempted to get rid of some of their
purchases. The demand fell off
quickly and stocks were offered down
steadily a number of favorites sell
ing as much below yesterday's clos
ing as they had above it at the start.
Reading bore the brunt of the selling
but there was also considerable
amounts of Amalgamated Copper and
other specialties disposed of.
Sluggish and Unimportant.
The .market became extremely dull
at the decline fluctuations were slug
gish and unimportant. Northwestern
declined 2, Illinois Central 2 and
St. Paul, Great Northern preferred
and Pressed Steel Car 1. Bonds were
heavy.
The improvement in prices was
scarcely perceptible, but the market
got gradually higher, Colorado Fuel
and Distillers' Securities rising a
point.
