Midway Horse Market.

Barrett & Zimmermans report: During the
past week the receipts of all classes of horses
have been large and the demand limited, as
a result prices have been on the decline, and
are still considerably depressed. Many care
full buyers are taking advantage of the pres
ent temporary fall in prices, and are getting
horses much cheaper than they can a little
later. We strongly advise those needing
horses in the near future to buy now. Heavy
receipts and larger sales are confidently
looked for next week. Representative sales:
