CHICAGO Markets

Chicago, Aug. 29.-There were not
enough cattle here today to make a
market. The few that were offered for
sale were disposed of readily at un-
changed prices Quotations are as fol-
lows: Fancy beeves s4.9065.00: fair to
prime steers s3.75Q4S5; stockers and
feeders s2.5O@365; bulls, cows and heif-
ers $1.7593.S5; calves s350Q610; Tex
ans and westerns s2.4003.9o.
Today's hog market was active and
stronger, but the outlook for permanent
improvement is not good. The heavy
receipts have upset the short crop
theory and liberal receipts are expected
right along. Sales were made today of
heavy hogs at s260qa25: medium
weights at $2.95Q3.40 and light hogs at
3.25Q3.45.
Sheep sold at steady prices today, the
market retaining the firmness charac
teristic of the week. Sales are now
made at 81 2256360 for common to choice
westerns selling in large numbers at
$315@350. Feeding sheep have been
scarce at $2.50Q2.75. Lambs have been
too plentiful and did not sell so well as
sheep, current sales being at s3.00@5.60;
feeding lambs are wanted at $3.50
3.75.
Receipts-Cattle 200; hogs $4,000; sheep
500.
