RECEIPTS

CATTLE-The receipts of cattle today
were twenty-eight fresh loads, against thirty
five yesterday. There was a little OF every
thing in the yards. but not much of any
thing. In the way of beef steers there were
some right good cattle. One bunch of corn
fed cattle sold to shipper at S.. while
some good wheat-fed steers brought A.75. 1t
was n good, strong and fairly active mar
ket. In some cases statesmen were calling
the market i0c to 15c higher on the most de-
sirable cattle. Such cattle as the packers
wanted changed hands quickly. 1t Is not the
best heavy cattle, however. that are the
most attractive to the packers. Tidy little
cattle, that can be sold at less money, are
In better demand than the heavy cattle.
There were seven or eight loads of cows
and mixed butchers stock in the yards
OF this number about three loads consisted
of fair killing cows, and the balance was
made up largely of Gamers Good cows
say the least, was mean" For some time
back there has been an active demand for
Gamers, and prices have been high. The
situation has changed all of n sudden and,
instead of being strong. the market is as
low as 1t has been any time within the last
few months
Saturday is usually an off day in the
feeder market, but still there We're some
buyers in from the country today, and sew
eral punches We're weighed up. There We're
very few cattle in first hands, and what
few there We're sold at about steady prices.
Spectators have quite a good many on
hand. but they are not experiencing any
there being fair demand for good cattle.

FALL RIVER. Mass. March e.-The week in
the print cloth market was marked by the break
Ing OF the record Tor low prices. Goods were
sold at I-l6c. The lowest previous record was
shc. The market had been very dull at 2iao
and outside markets had dsoppad to 3 i-1sc.
Sales here naturally followed, and then the mar
kets became again very dull There ia now de-
Inand at 7-i6c. The buyers are bidding 2%c,
but even that not strongly. The manufacturers
are holding steadily at 1-lec. The prospect for
better business is not good. The total sales for
the week were fair. Orders to be made consti-
tuted the bulk OF them. The regulars sold are
for March and April delivery. with most OF
them for the latter month. They nearly all
went at the low prices, The sales OF odds for
tho week were on basis from 2iac down to

HOGS-There were fifty-two fresh loads of
hogs in the yards this morning, as against
sixty-three loads yesterday. The average
quality of the hogs was about the same as
not so many toppy loads today. The market
opened at about steady prices and the first
thirty loads that changed hands sold on that
basis Then came reports of the lower pro-
vision market in Chicago, and under that in
fiuence and the extremely pleasant weather
cluded that they did not want the hogs as
badly as they thought they did in the morn
ing The trade became very slow and was
a drag until the close. In the end the
buyers got the remaining hogs &c lower.

Driving Damp Shoes.

One of the most fertile of
colds and serious incidental ailments
is the wearing of damp shoes. When
shoes have been saturated with water
the attempt to dry them by exposing
them before q stove or fire is obviously
damaging to the leather, while it does
not insure the expulsion of moisture
from the inside. For accomplishing
this a new invention has been brought
out, consisting of a hollow stoneware
last, which can be filled with hot
water like a bottle and which is made
in a variety of shapes and sizes to cor
respond to the inside of ordinary
shoes. The hole at the top of the last
is corked as soon as the hot water has
been poured in. The last is kept in
position until the inside of the shoe is
thoroughly dry, and the hot water can
be renewed if necessary Chicago
