Bulls Hfap.-A pretty strong effort made
yesterday by the regular cattle brokers, drovers and
spectators to enhance the price Of beef cattle and,
so far as sales were made, they successful The
idea prevailed all day yesterday that the supply of
cattle for the market to-day in Forty-fourh street
would be very much below that of last week, and that
all could be sold at advance Of half cent pound
NET over the prices of last market. This the
in all the sales Of Tuesday, the first quality bringing
cents more freely than it did 81 cents week ago.
Some premium Durham cattle from Kentucky sold at
about ~ or "a cents pound net and good stock
sold tg cents net weight ON the hooks the buyer to
xii and weigh immediately. The advance is partly
owing to the small number of rst-cass stock ysrded,
and partly to the fine, Clear cool weather, different
from last Tuesday and partly TO the fact that the rail-
roads have all advanced their rates Of freight and cut
of all return passes. Butchers generally bought light
yesterday, under the impression that the advance
would not be maintained to-day.
