CATTLE-It was an active day in this de-
partment of the livestock market. Outside buy
ers, as well as local butchers, were in good a.
tendance, and the demand from the different
classes was libaral. The leading Eastern mar
kots have assumed d healthier tone, and ship.
pers took hold with moro apparent confdeuca
than for 4 number of days past; being free buy.
ers at full former rates for anything that could
be adyantageously handled in the Eastern mar
kets, while for especially desirable lots
slight advance WAS offered. Receipts vera
moderate, the arrivals ,an since e 3. SATURDAY
period last week, and 1902 week before last.
Yesterdays supply was almost entirely disposed
OF, SO that the number actually on sale to-day
did not much exceed 2, 500 head. This number
proved no more than sufficient to satisfy tha
legitimate wants Of tho trade, and the market
ruled firm to the close, at 3450@5.o0 Tor eom~

1900 tts average, at 95.25@575 for good to choea
