LIVE STOCK.
Chicago, April 9.-Although about 5000
cattle were received here today. there was
no advance in prices, 1t being dun mar
ket. The sales were on basis of s4.75d
6.25 for medium to choice steers weighing
from LOO to 1900 pounds with transac-
tions largely at $5Gl6, and extra beeves,
averaging $500 to 1850 pounds were nom
inal at s6.25 $3.50. Great, fat steers, av-
eraging between 1850 and l45O pounds,
! have been sold within the last few days
around Sc, while steers no heavier, but
smoother and choicer have been picked
up at $6.10Q625; cows sold at $l.75q4SO
largely at $2.75G3.75.
! Hogs-Receipts did not reach 1900 head,
and the prices ruled about steady at yes
! terday's advances, the best being quoted
! at $40. with the bulk of sales at 5000
$50. The most striking feature Is grow
! ing demand for light hogs, and an increas-
ing tendency to pay higher prices for
such droves. At the present time there is
| a difference of SOC per 100 pounds, being
| the best light and the best heavy, where
| al a year ago the difference was only 10c,
the choicest heavy selling at that time at
| $5.35 and the best light at $5.25.
