Wheeling Cattle Market.
WEDNESDAY, October 22nd

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER End.
There is no, 50 strong a feeling in
the market as st the opening last week.
The s;ringency in the money market
makes buyers hold of, while the pros
pect OF a long winter and short fod-
der crop makes stock raisers anxious to
realize. Between the two the market
is weakening, with fair prospect of
decline.
CATTLE-Receipts during the past
week foot up 10 81 head. But few Of
these were first class beef cattle. A l
cattle bring a per cwt. The majority
OF the offerings are medium to good
grades and brought 50 for interior;
s. % for medium and IS so for good.
HOGS-Are arriving more freely,
and are generally in first class order.
Sales OF l3l head at 81 60@5 90 are
reported at the Stock Yards. From
this time forward we may look for larger
offerings and lower prices. Our packers
are getting ready for business, and it
will not be more than four or FIVE weeks
until they will be in the market.
SHEEP-The offerings Of sheep are
limited, and operations are confined to
butchers. But 20 head were sold dur
ing the past week ct s. 1894 50
LAMBS-The inquiry for lambs Ia
good and all that offer are sold. Sales
