HoPs-some sales at quotations are reported
There is more disposition TO buy but stocks of good
Hops are not heavy enough for any activity Prices
HIDES AND PELrS-Trade has lately been
active. Prices show unusual number of fluctua-
main about the same as last quoted. The heavier
grades of Steers, both sound and No rs, continue
| dull indeed. There is no demand for Light Steers
| and Cows that have been damaged by grubs, and
| stock at 39314e q 10. Dry Hides are about the
same although the market in the East shows little
| skins are weaker and prices low in the East.
We would advise great deal of caution to store
| keepers and shippers in the matter OF handling
| Deerskins. No Skins should be bought unless ac-
| cording TO law. Sheepskins are sellnn at prices
| above the relative values of Fleece Wool, and
Sheepskins of three or four months wool and more
bring very fair prices. Poor Shearlings and poor
damaged short-wool Skins OF comparatively lit
| tie value, and buyers, therefore, should purchase
with good deal of caution" Heavy sailed steers.
