C0HHBRCIAL AND FINANCIAL.
Allesheny Cattle lInrket.
ALLEGHENY, February 1


CATTLE-There was again light sup
ply of cattle on sale Monday, only
about 600 head; and, while prices were
fully sustained, the market was very
tame one, and was devoid OF that life
and buoyancy which usually prevails
under the influence of short supply.
There were no outsiders In attendance
and the butchers were the only pur-
chasers, and, for some reason or other,
they did not take hold very freely, and
this being the case the supply was fully
up to the demand. The cattle on sale
appeared to be pretty we'll divided be-
tween Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Penn
sylvania, while, SO far as quality 1s
concerned, there was so far as We could
see but little difference compared with
last week. And, while the number of
cattle on sale was not as large rs it was
last week, the market was not appRr-
emily as strong, though as already in
timated prices were fully sustained.
Sales were made at 6Aa71sc; 41za7xo
Sa7I5c and 4Aa711c.
Saskatchewan an unusually small
supply of sheep on sale Monday, not
over 500 head, and with a fair retail
rienced in realizing full prices for all
grades, and prime fat sheep ruled
higher. There does not seem to be the
same disposition manifested in the
country to force sheep on the market
that there has been all winter, which Is
in consequence OF shearlng time oelng
near at hand, and we do not look for
very large arrivals until after clipping
time is over. One lot of good sheep
sold at 81 90 per head, and one lot of
sixty extra fat sold at Sc per pound.
Eighty head of Allegheny sheep sold at
5a6c.
HUGs-Market dull, and prices q
mill IN hn q
still further decline before butchers
will buy very freely. One hundred and
fifty head retailed at 12a14c, and a lot
of l2O brought Ila1315c, also at retail.
