THE MARKETS FOR STOCK.

Persons shipping stock to Baltimore
have at all times the choice OF three mar
kct<-Baltimorc, Philadelphia and New
Nork-thc freight rates by rail being 5"
arranged that the shipment from TINS
city east is made ut through rates. "
the stock received about two-thIrds l.
taken bv Baltimore butchers and SlauSht-
cred for local consumption. Sales are Al
81 made to Washington, Norfolk and
ANNAPOLIS butchers and Maryland farm
ers, and the remainder are disposed OF To
spectators or re>hipped to Eastern
markets. The bulk of the stock Is from
Virginia West Virginia, Ohio and low
er Maryland, the trade in the States OF
Illinois and Indiana being as yet only
partially developed.
CASH ADVANCES.
The dealers are in most cases men OF
considerable wealth. and are always pre-
pared tomake liberal advances on stock
consiynments when the shipping bill
comes attached to the drafts. The GUS
tom has been to advance in cash about
two-thirds the market value of the stock
and prompt returns are ut all times
made when sales are effected.
CHARGES AND EXPENSE.
Shippers unacquainted with the eX-
pense and rates of charges of this market
will find the following of interest
Weighing at the State scales (if Slaught-
cred for city use,) = cents per loO
pounds; if weighed for shipment, . cts
per 100 pounds; reweighing, one cent
per 1000 pounds. The commissions
charged by the dealers are; 81 per head
and per cent.-of the amount of sales
The Wheeling daily register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1864-1878, 1874-07-21

for cattle, and a per cent, for sales of
sheep and hogs. These rates are very
generally adhered to.
i EXPENSE OF FEEDING.
Inquiry of the hotel dealers shows
the expense of feeding stock at the drove
yards to be as follows, based upon the
present price of hay and corn: Cattle
per head, 20 cents per day; hogs per car
load, of 80 to 40, $3.50 per day, (corn
being estimated at IS cents per bushel;
sheep on grass, 2 cents each per day;
and in winter, on dry food, at cents
each per day. !" o.
g'-. STATE LAWS.
The legislature has, since the establish
ment of the scales at Calverton, enacted
laws regulating rs far as is necessary the
business and protecting at all times very
fully the interests Of shippers and drovers.
EXTENT OF THETRADE.
A recent estimate made by the stock
dealers shows the amount OF business
transacted at the drove yards to be about
Sl5,OOO,000 per annum, and the trade at
the yards furnishes active employment
for about 100 persons, and indirectly for
several thousands in the slaughter and
sale of the stock in this city.
THE RAILROAD ROUTES.
The two great railroad routes, the Bal
timore and Ohio and Northern Central,
over which the stock now reaches this
market, are such as to insure the prompt
delivery of cattle from all points throug h.
out the West, Northwest and South.
The near completion Of the Chicago
branch of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road will give two through routes to the
great grazing sections of the Northwest,
and the competition that has already
commenced between these rival corpora
tons and their connections will secure to
shippers every possible advantage that
rapid transit and low rates can otteL The
Baltimore and Ohio road is now COM
pleted to Defiance, Illinois, fifty miles
from Toledo. where it intersects the
Toledo, Wabash and Western railroad.
With this last named corporation and
other railroads throughout the State of
Illinois, the Baltimore and ONO has
efc, { d arrangements which enable
them to ship stock ut the following rates
