sure 10 sell quickly CduSSu Tue ucClln6, ulSiJ-
pointment at the lack of support when higher
prices were reached creating a bear sentiment.
\ heavy interior movement an | dlScOurdging
reports from Liverpool aided the decline. Cable
adviceS say that sellers were numerous at the
advance toe market being affected unfavorably

from Brownsville Tex, state that a third more
colt on has been sent over to Mexico this season
than last, better market being found there"
