E. V. BOBBINS, Esq.,

I*resident of the Board of Th-ade of tlie City of Chicago :

Sib :—I have the honor to submit the accompanying Report of the Trade and Commerce

of Chicago in Flour, Grain, Provisions, Lumber, «fec., for the year ending March 31, 1869.

In making up this report, which is the last I shall submit to the Board, I can not but ex-

press my regret that there has never been provision made for a full report of the entire Com-

merce and Manufactures of this city, annually—for the rapid growth of Chicago has ever been

a wonder to the commercial world, but yet there are many intelligent men of high commercial

standing, both in this countryand in Europe, who to-day do not comprehend, and consequent-

ly can not appreciate, the importance of the Manufactures and Commerce of the young" Garden City ofthe Lakes."

No official report has ever yet been made of the extent of manufactures from the different

metallic products ofthe territory tributary to our city, or of the progress made in th^iifferent

branches of useful and ornamental art.

In taking leave of the Board I can not refrain from expressing my high appreciation of

the uniform confidence and courtesy which has ever been manifested toward me during the

past six years by the officers and members of the Board, and at the same time I desire to tender

my sincere congratulations upon your success in securing the services of a gentleman so com-

petent as Mr. Chables Randolph to undertake the onerous duties of the position.

I also desire to bear testimony to the faithful services of all those who have acted as myassistants in the duties of the office.

I am, my dear sir.

Faithfully,your obedient servant,

Chicago, April, 1869. JOHN F. BEATY.

Balance on hand as per last annual report $15,285 58

For market reports 4,037 26

For repairs of hall and directors' room 4,177 63

For National Board of Trade 1,648 92 '^,,,

For premium on $18,000 in United States bonds 1,665 00^

.

For legal expenses 456 50

For appropriation to Packers' Association 750 00$95,271 06

$15,21335

There is on hand in United States bonds, at par. $18,000 00

Balance due the Treasurer 2,786 65

The bonds are now worth 113%, say 20,475 00

From the above statement, it will be seen that the current expenses of the year do not varymaterially from former years. In addition, however, to our usual expenses, your Directorshave expended $7,629.80 in repairs on our hall, our assessment by the National Board of Trade,to defray its expenses, and the cost of the banquet given to the press of Wisconsin and Min-nesota ; all of which were regarded as necessary expenditures and good investments for theBoard. They also paid to the Pork Packers' Association $750.00, to reimburse them in part formoney expended in investigating the Texas Cattle Disease, and in obtaining the passage of alaw by our State Legislature regulating the Importation of Texas cattle into our State, which Is

a matter of vital importance, not only to this Board, but to the community at large.

During the first five months in the year, the receipts from grain inspection largely exceededthe expenses of the same. Your Directors, believing the rates of inspection should be as nearsimply self-sustaining as possible, reduced the rates on the 15th of September, as follows, to-

toifajtefiiirtW'i^imiifiiitiMflm"-f-iMMfii?iii1frVillV^''ill7i-frnT^^ J

10 -^^ TRADE AND COMMERCE OF

wit : Inspection on grain from cars to warehouse, from 25 to 20 cents per car ; on grain fromwarehouse to cars, from 50 to 40 cents per car; on grain from warehouse to vessels, from 50 to3t

cents per thousand. The result of this material reduction has been a loss to the Board since its

adoption, and the inspection account now stands nearly even, but owing to the large amount of

grain now in the country, to come forward, they think the existing rates will be sufficient to

cover the expenses during the coming season, and for that reason have not thought best to ad-

vance the rates at present.

No material change has been made in the Rules of Inspection during the year. Owing to

the excellent quality of the crop of wheat of 1868, and corn of 1867, the rules in force at the com-mencement of the year were found to be sufficient to meet all the diflFerent grades of grain

coming to our market, until the new corn from the crop of 1868 began to arrive. This crop being

inferior to that of 1867, and more or less of it having been, kiln-dried before shipment, it wasfound to be necessary to add to the rules governing the inspection of corn, to meet the diflFerent

grades, but in no case were any rules changed that were in force at the beginning of the year, all

of which have been strictly adhered to by the Chief Inspector, and, so far as we know, havegiven universal satisfaction.

Your Directors have had an unusual amount of business before them during the year.

Many important questions have been referred to the Commercial Committee, in the considera-

tion of which said committee has rendered valuable service to our Board.All the cases coming before us [for adjudication have been settled, with one exception,

which is now in court, and the prominent features of which you are all familiar with. YourDirectors regret feeling obliged to enforce contracts of that nature, yet we find-no rules or by-

laws of the Association that will release a member on his contract, even when caught in a" corner;" and we recommend the continued prosecution of this case not, however, in a spirit

of persecution, but for the purpose of testing the rights of our institution to compel its mem-bers to conform to its rules and by-laws.

There has been an increase of membership over the previous year of 63—the number this

year being 1,287. Your Directors have made no change in the annual assessment, it being thirty

dollars.

Among the first acts of your Directors was to instruct their Cemetery Committee to carry

out, if possible, the resolution passed at the last annual meeting, in regard to the erection of amonument to the memory of those brave men who so nobly sacrificed their lives upon tlje altar

of our country. This committee had authority to invest $5,000 when an equal amount waspledged from any reliable source ; and, after conferring with the City Council, the Board of Su-pervisors, and others, we are happy to be able to report that success has crowned their-eflforts bya unanimous vote of the Board of Supervisors to expend $5,000. This result, however, was ob-

tained too late to carry out the plan this year ; but a Building Committee of two has t)een

appointed, to co-operate with a like committee of three from the Board of Supervisors, and $5,000

of the money now in the hands of our Treasurer is subject to their order, for that purpose, andyour Directors trust there will be no further delay in accomplishing the desired object.

During the past year. Col. John F. Beaty, who had so long and faithfully served this Boardin the capacity of Secretary, resigned the office, for the purpose of accepting a position whichpromises greater financial advantages, and, while we parted with him with feelings of sincere

regret, we know we express the feeling of the whole Board, when we say we wish him all thesuccess his merits deserve, and that is all he could ask for.

During the past year, but few of our members have been visited by the Messenger of Death,but the number is sufficient to remind us all of the necessity of securing riches more durablethan this world can bestow.

The past year, viewed from a financial stand-point alone, may be regarded as a disastrous

one, especially by our grain men ; but, remembering that we are in a transition state, from in-

flation to a gold basis, and that already some of the leading articles of commerce have depre-ciated nearly one-half in price, we congratulate the Board upon the fact that the disaster hasbeen no greater. This, together with renewed confidence in our government, enables us, whenwe look back, to see that we have made great advances toward a permanent foundation for asafer and more successful business in the future. Your Directors have favored all legitimate

enterprises tending to develop the financial resources of our city, and we trust the business

of this Board, and its influence and standing in commercial circles, will ever be In keepingwith its commanding position. , .

Respectfully submitted.

In behalf of the Directors,

E. V. ROBBINS, President.

CLASSIFICATIOlSr OF FLOUR

AND RULES OF INSPECTION

ADOPTED BY THE

BOARD OF TRADE OF THE CITY OF CHICAGO.

Ftrst. Sound.—To be" strictly sound, free from any and every defect or fault causing either

smell or taste.

Second. Weedy—Flour made from Wheat that has come In contact with a noxious weed,imparting an unpleasant smell, which is supposed will cook out.

Third. Unsound.—All B'lour not " Sound " or " Weedy," whether the unsoundness is derivedfrom the condition of the wheat or has originated in the Flour. The Inspectors are requiredto note on their certificates the character of the unsoundness, such as musty, hard sour, soft sour,

or slighily unsound—the latter explanation of the unsoundness being intended to indicate thatthe Flour will probably work sound for immediate use, and is slightly depreciated in value.

All Flour that inspects " Sound " and full weight shall be branded, and none other; except

when part of the lot of " Extra " proves so far below sample as to be a clearly different grade,

the Inspectors may omit branding the barrels that are below grade ; and it shall be the dutyof the Inspectors, when working to a sample, to state on their certificate the number of barrels

above or below the sample, and have the sample or samples of the same, which the parties mayexamine ; also to state on their certificate, when the flour is " unsound " or " weedy," thenumber of barrels of each description, and also, when practicable, the number of barrels that

are so stained or out of condition as to depreciate the market value of the Flour. When Flourhas been overhauled and cleaned on account of being wet, the Inspectors shall note on the cer-

tificate "wet and cleaned," either "by Inspectors" or " by Owner," as the case maybe. TheInspectors shall satisfy themselves in regard to the weights, and in case they deem it necessaryto strip some of the Flour, they shall »be entitled to twenty-five (25) cents for each barrel so

stripped (if it proves to be short weight) in addition to the regular fee of two cents per barrel

for inspecting and branding. The charge of stripping shall be paid by the seller. No certificate

shall be issued for a part of a lot of Flour inspected, without the consent of both the bu.yer andseller. The Inspector shall be only liable to damage for any discrepancy between the Flour for

which a certificate is issued and the sample which they retain of Flour so Inspected, unless

the buyer hands them the sample to inspect by.

Rules for the Adjustment of Short Weight of Flour, in tho absence of any special

understanding between buyers and sellers.

First.—F\onr shall be sold on the basis of one hundred and ninety-six pounds to the barrel.

Second.—In case of short weight, the buyer shall be allowed for such shortage at the rate hepays, and three-fourths of a cent per pound on same for freight, and in addition five (5) centsper barrel for the expense of refilling.

INSPECTION OF PROVISIONS.

DIRECTIONS FOE CUTTING, PACKINa AND CUEING PORK AND BEEF, AND RULES REGULATING

-*; THE SALE OF THE SAME. ,/ .

The following rules for examination and Inspection of Provisions, as adopted by the PorkPackers' Association, have also been adopted by this Board

:

Examination.—To provide for the examination of provisions sold as " standard," it shall bethe duty of the Inspector, on receiving notice, to go to any packing-house, or warehouse in th»city, to examine provisions in such quantities as may be required; selecting the same in sucha manner from the lot specified, as in his judgment will give a fair sample of the whole. If,

FLOUE.The Flour movement of the year shows a gratifying increase as compared with the previous year, and the

exhil.it is larger even than in 1866-7, though the trade has ruled comparatively dull. The receipts for the twelvemon-ths ending March 31st, 1869, were 2,276,335 barrels; manufactiirt-d by city millers, 747,932 barrels; the stockon hand March 31st, 1868, was 74,925 barrels ; making a total of 3,099,192 barrels. Of this amount 2,723,817 barrels

were shipped, and 101,898 barrels were on hand at the close of the year, leaving 273,477 barrels for consumptionin tiie city during the twelve months. The receipts exceeded those of the previous year by 627,429 barrels ; theshipments show a corresponding increase of 805,892 barrels, and the city mlanufacture a' ^ain of 138,326 barrels.

This is partiaUy attributable to the low prices which have prevailed in breadstuff^ during the greater part of theyear, and have, no doubt, materially stimulated consumption. Our city millers have been moderately successful,

as during the protracted decline of last autumn they milled chiefly on order. The past twelve months have notbeen so remunerative to operators, inasmuch as profits have been small, and the aggregate of sales at this pointreduced by large shipments direct from country mills to Eastern dealers. We note a steady improvement in thequality of flour producea by our city millers, which enables Chicago Spring Wheat Flour to be bought extensivelywhere Winters were used almost exclusively to a very recent date.

THE CITY OF CHICAGO. ST

CORN.

The movement in com during the year ending March Slst, 1868, shows little improrement over that of the pre-

vious year, and exhibits a great falliag off from that of two years ago. The receipts were 25,174,470 bushels;

decrease 48,998 bushels ; and the shipments were 25,404,275 bushels ; an increase of 3,523,593 bushels over the

year preceding. The crop of 1867 was not so great as expected, and that of 1868, though great things wereanticipated, has not, so far, shown a great increase, while, the low price ofcom during the winter, and the high

price of pork stimulated extensive feeding to hogs. The receipts of new corn during the past winter were very

large, and in fair condition. The shipments during the same season were anprecedently large, taxing the

resources of the railroads leading East to their utmost extent, • '

OATS.

The movement in Oats exhibits a most gratifying increase over the preceding year, averaging above 26 per

cent, in the aggregate. The receipts were 16,163,301 bushels ; increase, 3,508,656 bushels ; shipments, 15,018,312

bushels; increase, 4,709,249, bushels, while the receipts are nearly double those of two years ago. The crop of

1868 was large, and its quality so very satisfactory as to render it unnecessary to revive the distinction between

Nos. 1 and 2—a distinction which has been little more than nominal for two years past.

RYE.

The movement in Rye shows a large increase in receipts and shipments over the proceeding twelve months

but was scarcely equal to that of 1866-7. The receipts were 1,549,701 bushels ; the shipments 1,463,708 bushels

The market has ruled very steady all through the year, under a constant but quiet demand, and prices have been

good, as compared with the low quotations on other cereals. The quality of the crop of 1868"was uniformly

good, and the yield was a fair one. The milling demand has fallen oflF somewhat, as compared with that of 1867-8,

but it has been counterbalanced by an increased use on the part of distillers since the duty on spirits was

reduced.

BARLEY.The movement in Barley during the fiscal year ending March 3l8t, 1869, exhibits a falling ofif in both receipts

and shipments from the preceding year, but the receipts—1,893,641 bushels—were about equal to thos" of 1866-7;

the shipment8-7-l,065,278 bushels—were much less. The crop of 1867 was all exhausted long before that of 1868

came in, and the last, being but an average one, has been the subject of a good demand, both here and in Ohio,

the latter State having drawn largely upon us by rail. Comparatively little of our Barley has gone to the

seaboard. Our receipts include over 120,000 bushels from Canada, and 34,392 bushels of Barley Malt were received

in addition. The amount in store having been uniformly light, prices have fluctuated rather extensively with the

varying demand. We note the arrival of several lots of Barley from Germany in Eastern Malt centers during

the year.'

THE PROVISION TRADE.

Chicago still maintains the lead in provisions, though the year ending March 81st, 1869, shows a material falling

off in pork packing, but less in the movement of hogs, as a great many animals were shipped East for summer

packing on the seaboard. The pork packing statistics give a total of 617,954 carcasses, live and dressed, cut

up during the year, Leing a decrease of 178271 from the exhibit of the year preceding. It was early ap-

parent that the crop of 1868 would not equal that of 1867, though the average weight and yield of Lard were

better, while it was known that there was no surplus of products on hand. Hence prices rapidly ran up on hogs^

and products, quotations nearly touching the top figures attained in our packing annals, under an active consump.

tive demand from the South for half-cured meats, followed by a strong speculative enquiry. Our exports to Europe

have been large, and the stock remaining on hand at the close of the fiscal year is very light.

EEEF CATTLE AND BEEF PRODUCT.

The amount of Beef Cattle for the year ending March Slst, 1869, shows a moderate increase as compared

with the previous year, though not equaling the figures of 1866-7. The receipts were 347,244 head, the ship-

ments 235,531 head. The movement was moderately interfered with by the Texas cattle fever, and the excite-

ment which prevailed in relation thereto. The number of Cattle packed at this point was 26,950 head—a de-

crease of 8,400 from the previous year. The falling off was largely due to the very low prices ruling East for

Beef Prodacts which promised no margin of profit to our packers.

for thf? year just closed being 146,000,000 feet over th'jse for the year preceding, while the excess of shipments wasover 33,000,(KX) fe^t. Stocks have been ample, and prices ruled very uniform ilirnugh the year till near the close,
