HOG MARKET STEADY
Fair Line of Offering and
Quality Fair.
TOPS UP TO 1927 ~
Good Live Cattle Market With
Moderate Supply.

Yesterday on the local market was a
far day Of trading, in spite Of the fact
that it was a legal holiday all over. and
most of the several branches of CONNER
cal and industrial business suspended for
the day. The Union Stock Yards Ex-
change had made no especial provision for
the day. and all the several commission
firms represented on the Exchange were
on hand TO receive and care for all con-
signments sent in It was very fair day
IN point Of business done, and all ship
ments were disposed Of soon after arri-
val Very naturally it assumed a rather
indifferent tone shortly after the opening,
only because the spirit Of holiday free
dom from business cares enveloped the
trade through most of the day. Never
1helesS there was a good business done
on the market, the whole day considered,
and no hogs went begging. The usual
interests were all the time on hand and
the buying element was nearly as strong
a on an ordinary day. The first part
Of the day was spent in Efeless awaiting
Tor receipts, the wagon and local trade
which generally comes in early being la
mentally lacking. The absence of wagon
hogs naturally produced among the trade
a feeling Of disappointment, but not al
together unexpected. Later in the day
the car lots commenced to arrive. and a
revival Of bUoyancy a once took the place
OF the earlier stagnation. AS fast as the
car hogs were received and fed. they
were looked over by the buyers and soon
all offerings were bid upon. There were
! nall six cars of hogs received, FIVE of
which were at once sold, as well as all
the wagon offerings. The sixth load was
by agreement held over for special rea-
sons on private sale. The market was
quoted a. steady and this standard ruled
Tor all the sales made. The quality was
fair 10 good, the weight showing up 23l.
and the stock mostly of firm well roundej
butcher stuff. Everything offered was
quickly absorbed and the demand was at
all times above the supply. The volume
OF receipts was not so great as on
Wednesday, but very fair for a holiday.
when many otherwise regular shippers
hold of their consignments until the dav
following. There was no want of ener-
getlc enthusiasm on the trading and had
there been twice as many hogs received
they would have met with a ready well
come and sold at firm, steady prices.
