HOGS-It was another day Of good hog re-
ceipts, the run being almost large yester-
day ANA larger than a week ago by 1000 head.
The total for the week 1890, against
397 for the previous week.
The market was In n most healthy condition
and entirely satisfactory 10 the sellers at least.
At the opening values were just about steady,
but under the Influence Of the very active demand
values lrmel up a little and the close was strong.
by reason Of the strong closing the average of
all the sales was cent or two above yesterdays
average. but the prices paid for the two days
were practically the same.
The heavy hogs sold mostly at 50 iOa3l5. the
same yesterday, ana the medium weights and
light loads at s32OH532ia Summed up ia few
words II was "A good strong and active market
and everything in the yards changed hands early.
The hog market OF the past week has been In
a very gratifying condition, the receipts having
been large ana the demand good. The arrivals
have met with ready sale on every day OF the
week, and the yards have been kept well cleared.
Monday was the high point OF the week values
failing fully l0c on Tucsday From Tuesday on
until the close Of the week the market dld not
show any change sufficiently marked TO admit of
any difference in the quotations. The average
OF all the sales did not vary more than l

tionary for so long time. The market at the

failure OF the Commercial bank in 1898. in
consequence of his large overdrafts amount
ing to $l25,00O, He said that his arrairs and

CATTLE-The receipts of cattle today
were slightly smaller than yesterday but
almost double what they were a week ago a
very liberal run for the last day of the
week. The total for the week footed up
15,9)S, as against 14,115 for the previous week,
n slight gain for the six days
Today's market was without feature of
any great Importance, the trade partalinS
very largely of the humdrum character
Values were practically unchanged, the
market being just abou; steady on all kinds
There was q little sprinkling of Cornfed
steers In the yards, but nothing choice or
especially attractive and no great number
little slow, due principally to the fact that
statesmen generally had a pretty good
opinion of their holdings and were asking
Butchers stock sold in the same notchcs
as yesterday and the trade was fairly ac-
tive, with the demand good on the more
desirable grades of COWS and hefers. The
common and medium grades were inclined
to drag a little, but the light offerings were
Only a few stockers and feeders were in
first hands and in spite of the fact that it
mand Is usually light, the offerings were
al taken in good season. As was the case
with killing cattle, values did not show any
material change.
The cattle market of the past week has
been in very satisfactory condition, viewed
from the standpoint of the seller. The
tendency of values was upward under the
influence of stronger markets in the east
and light receipts locally, coupled with the
very good demand. There were not enough
beef cattle of any kind TO supply the de
mand and the large proportion of what
vas received here consisted OF half fat and
unfinished cornfed steers. Still the demand
was sufficiently strong TO keep the, yards
cleared and on most days the trade was
reasonably active. Butchers stock, like
cornfed steers, was in good demand and the
prices paid were high all the week. on
Friday the market broke 5Gl0c under the
influence of the heavy decline at other
marRetN. The heaviest demand was for
stOCkcrs and feeders. which met with ready
sale at gradually stlffening prices. The
supply Of feeders was more than equal TO
