It was a widely accepted opin- ion that receipts were likely to bej small for a considerable time even, after the switchmen's strike came to; an end. Much notice, too, was taken of the fact that exporters were pay-j Ing' GO cents or more above the estab-' lished minimum for wneat. Opening! corn prices, which ranged from Vic off to "ic advance, with May .?1.67 to 1.67V, and July ?l-60 to 1.60V. were followed by gains all around. I In oat8 as well as corn offerings' were light. After opening unchanged to VcC higher, Including July at So-" to !S5fec the market continued to harden. Higher quotations on hogs helped to lift .provisions. Grain strength waa likewise a stimulating factor. SILVER QUOTATION. NEW YORK, April 14. Bar silver Mexican dollars 90 c. NEW YORK SUGAR. NEW YORK, April 11.
