CHICAGO, April "a big half OF last weeks
net advance WAS crushed out today by the
heaviest run OF cattle In the last ten weeks.
An ample run had been predicted, but the
arrivals piled up fully 5000 head above 'i.e
highest estimate. Prices for steers dropped
back lUal5 cents but the demand was good and
most OF the useful steers found sale, Deeves OF
extra quality at - 20a4 40, and most Of good
grade and shipping steers at s. fOas. Trade in
feeders and roughish light steers was quiet.
and many OF such description were still IN
sold at a late hour. Cows and mixed butcher
stock Were relatively scarce, and declined
from closing values OF last week. Not enough
veal calves came In TO make market. The
lew We're gathered up at former prices. About
], 200 Texas cattle sold quite readily at nearly
shady prices. Good fat light steers went at
50 - and string OF $50 choice l,le0-pound
steers at s3a3 A..
The week starts with a bad break In prices
for hogs. An increase OF 1900 head In the
arrivals on the OF. ming day proved too great
a burden for the mari ct, and prices dropped
back fully Is cents at an early hour. Trade
Was slow AT that decline for a time. bot later
ali buyers came In for liberal purchases and q
heavy volume OF business was done. A few
fincy light pigs sold up 10 81 20. but the tulk
of The good 10 choice hogs OF all weights went
at 81 6sa65. Fair heavy PACKING grades and
rough mixed sold at 81 S5s4 50: rough culis
around 81 %. There were more than a. %
head on sale, Including old stock and upward
OF 90 heed were still unsold when all orders
had been filed, although the tone Of the late
market was better than the early trade.
Ample receipts are expected tomorrow.
