From the above It will be sccn that Tho receipts
Of Cattle during the month now about closed ex-
ceed those Of ast year only about 90 head, aud In
Hogs upwards Off 200.
BEEF CATTLIThc 1nnrket for Beef Cattle
c1cses steady and active. without any material
change in prices since the date Of our last weekly
review As will be seen from the table Of receipts
The supply exceeded that OF the week previous
b. SIG head. and this slight increase tended to
chick any upward movcmcnt-so sensitive is tho
market at present. Owing to the advance Of &c
in New York Oh Wednesday last, on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday the market here became very
firm, and one two choice lots were sold at 50 rs;
bnt the de1nandat this price proved very limited.
for yesterday the best In the market could not
command a bid over s. 60, and to day, $3.35 was
the highest offer made. Shippers to New York
have suffered 10 severely during tho present
month, that they were not to be induced by one
coed market in New York to operate for an ah-
vance in prices. The consequence nag, that u
1a'gc proportion Of tho good shipping stock was
sent through to New York, Philadelphia and Ha.-
risburgb, On account Of the OWNERS.
The transactions in common stock were toler-
ably heavy, at $1.75@a,50 and for medium to fair
s2.5e@s.s5. Good stock were. aold at $3.35D350;
and extra lots were held at 50 Is, without buyers.

in il to other parties, This receives martial an.
thent1cation by the fact that to-day Ar. John Han
cock, Of the firm Of Craein i Co., Of this city, ap
peared in the market and purchased for Govern
ment 150 head Of good beeves, at ss.25-averagfng
1887 lbs. They presented quite contrast to the
preyions lots shipped BY Mr.. Hugh AInher to lar
risturgh; and our soldiers will have no reason to
complain II they always get AZ good al those ship
ped today. How the parties can make both ends
meet under such contract ii no business Of ours:
but the name OF Hancock has patriotic remfnisccn-
ccs, and wc have confidence that the present repre-
sentative Of that family will do uothiu. to tarnish
its fame.
With regard to the former lots sent to Wuehiua-
ton, the correspondent Of the PHILADELPHIA Iuqui-
7tr writes to that paper as follows:
A droyc OF cattle came In few iaavs aoo under
the "Atahcr' contract, that are the meaneat poor

At Sherman's yards on tho Lake Shore, there
were received 1909 head-neafly all of which we're
sold Of shipped East before noon to-day. The quail
tty Of the etoek waB Tally as good as those Of the
previous week, but the proportion Of prime con-
tinucs small. 4 few lots were sold at $3.50; but
the great bulk changed hands At $a.a5QA3.0o.
