GRAIN MARKETS ARE QUIET NOW

ONLY VARIATION IN QUOTATIONS IS A SLIGHT SHIFT , IN WHEAT. ; FARMERS HAVE SOLD GRAIN With the Exception of That Which Thy Are Holding For An Emergency. The Richmond graii: and feed markets are especially quiet at present and there' has been no change in pi ices of corn, wheat, oats or hay for several weeks. Occasionally there is a slight shift in the price paid for wheat, but nothing of importance. Most of the farmers throughout 1 he country have sold all their grain jind feed with the exception of that which they will hold over for an emtrgency, and to use for their stock for the remainder of the winter. Little wheat is coming in now, and it is not thought that there is much to be had in Wayne County, as the price lias bees good nearly all winter, and large sales have been made. Corn is selling for about 38 cents per bushel and there is but little offered. The market has not changed for over a month, and there will likely be no change until April. LOCAL MARKETS (! , i ( k .

INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS

Six-Forty Now the Top Price for Hogs; Market up Ten to Fifteen Cents, With a Lively Demand. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 15. Receipts, 4,000 hogs, 1,000 cattle and 50 sheep, against 5.S60 hogs, 1,003 cattle and 95 sheep a week ago and 5,125 hogs, 1,094 cattle and 107 sheep a year ago. There was a small supply of hogs and with aggressive competition both from local and outside sources bidding from ti e start was lively and the supply was soon placed at prices 10(77 lne higher than yesterday. Later on account of unfavorable reports from other markets there v.-as p little reaction from the sharp i:rtuni here and some of the- Iat arrivals sold oc lower thas the opening. The range in prices was $0.20(f?fi.40 nml the bnlk of the su-v sol1 at fi.2otfTG.3o. The top price is the high est: since me lasr uay or last August and 40c higher than a week ago. Good Demand For Cattle, Cattle receipts were small, even for Thursday. From the start there was active competition between all buyers, and with a good demand for all kinds, there was an easy outlet at prices 10c higher. The market is now 2oc higher than a week ago. While all kinds of cattle met with a good demand, female butcher grades and light steers were easier to sell than the heavy cattle. There was no change in the situation as regards feeding cattle, bulls sold promptly at strong prices and calves were- steady. More Sheep Could be Sold. There were not enough sheep or lambs to establish new prices for any grade. A much larger supply would have sold at steady prices, $7.25 down for lambs and $5.00 down for sheep. Cattle. Steers

LIGHT SELLING AT THE OPENING

SEVERAL . GOOD ADVANCES SUBSTITUTED FOR OPENING LOSSES. UNLOADING LARGE BLHCKS Of Stocks From All Quarters Subsequently, Caused Precipitated Decline. New York, February 15. The opening stock market showed evidence of light selling pressure in the prevailing fractional declines. Ana conda fell 2 points, Northern Pacific 1 and Great Northern preferred a point. New York Central, Smelting, Amalgamated Copper and Pacific Mail made gains of a fraction. Several substantial advances were substituted for the opening array of losses. Northern Pacific and Amalgamated Copper sold a point above yesterday's closing, and Smelting and Great Northern preferred 1. Large blocks of stock were unloaded there was a precipitate fall in prices which drove many of the leaders 1 to 2 points below yesterday's closing. Tone Heavy and Dull. A rally was met by renewed offerings and there was another dip, but the decline was arrested before average prices reached the previous low level. The rise of a point in Amalgamated Copper helped to steady the market. Demand died out before recoveries proceeded far and the tone became heavy and dull. The rally in Great Northern preferred reached 3A and Northern Pacific 2x2. Anaconda fell 5, Northwestern and Illinois Central 2 and Baltimore & Ohio and Louisville & Nashville 1. With trading curtailed to nominal proportions there was little inducement for the professionals to attempt making a profitable turn, and in consequence most stocks fluctuated not more than a trivial fraction.
