SHIPMENTS.

CATTLE-Receipts tell considerably short
of yesterdays mark, only seventy-siN fresh
loads being reported In the yards. The
market on killing cattle was in a little
better condition.
The offerings of beef steers were light
and there was nothing in the yards equal
in point of quality to the $3.50 cattle sold
here yesterday. The conditions were all
favorable to the selling interests, light re-
ceipts. fair demand and encouraging re-
ports from other markets. As a result the
market was steady to a little stronger. and
In some cases statesmen reported that they
got 10c more for such cattle as especially
took the buyers fancy. While the feeling
was better, the trade was not particularly
active. and statesmen who did not happen
to have just Wha. the buyers wanted found
1t slow work unloading.
The offerings of cows and heifers con-
sisted of about hfteen to twenty loads. The
and heifers sold at strong prices. The less
desirable grades were no more than steady.
The market was reasonably active and the
offerings were pretty much cleaned up and
In good season.
Light stock cattle were not quite so plen-
tiful today as they have been, but. there
were more heavy feeders. The market on
that kind of cattle did not show any ma
tetial change from yesterday. The demand
was not large, but 1t was about equal to the
the cattle in first hands about all sold.
The decline on fat cattle has caused a
gradual fall in the values on feeders. The
market from day to day has not shown
much change, but If comparisons are made
with last week it will be noted that prices
are not the same. 1t Is safe to say. that
prices on heavy feeders are all of 25c lower
than last week. Representative sales:

WHOLESALE TRADE DULL AS A RULE

NEW YORK, DeG.o iS.-Bradstreet' tomorrow
will say; with the. exception of mild weather in
cities In Missouri. Kansas. Nebraska and Mime
sofa. cold weather has stimulated sales of sea
sonable merchandise at nearly all points, but only
by contrast with preceding weeks. Wholesale
trade Is dull, merchants preferring to reduce
stocks at the end Dtatae year 10 make ready
for annual Inventories. In retail lines. particu-
larly in holiday speoialties,r there has been a
marked Increase in demand. though thus far In
some instances not equal to expectations. Irreg-
ularity Is shown in mercantile collections, gen
oral trade throughout the country being rela-
lively most satisfactorily 10 the central Mississippi

on which American competition secured an Cd
vance. The Boston market Is very dun, though
fairly firm, especially on washed heeces. The
best lot of new clip Australian, 90. 900 lbs. was
sold here this week at current rates. Arneri-
cans have only purchased 10000 bales In Aus
tralia to date, scarcely more than an average
under old conditions. The clip is poor. and
competition for good lots Is too brisk to en-
courage free purchasing. The promised boom
In American wool goods is fattening out, as far
as mems wear is concerned. Makers of over
coatings shown at advanced prices have been
set back to last years price, and no advance
has been secured as expected on clay diagonals'
The sales of the week are 1850. 500 lbs. domestic
and $4,000 lbs. foreign, against 1.So6, 900 lbs.
domestic and 5s4, 500 lbs. foreign last week, and
l.522, 700 lbs. domestic and $50. 900 lbs. foreign
for the same week last year. The sales TO date
show an increase of 14.sI5. 1883 lbs, domestic and
AZ, S9i. 500 lbs. foreign from the sales of the same
date in 1894. The receipts to date show a de-
crease of 5,5ls bales domestic and an increase
of 220. 800 bales foreign.
