STRONG IO 5 HIGHER
Hog Receipts Light and
Quality Ordinary
TOPS STRUCK $3.50
Cattle Market Steady With
Supply Moderate

The Wichita hog market yesterday was
a strong five higher with q light r IN OF
stock in. The holiday on Thursday very
naturally somewhat demorallzed the con-
oitton Of affairs at the yards yesterday
and II was not easy 10 resume settled
and every Cay regime. The enthusiasm
was not so much lacking among the
traders, as that there was hardly enough
hogs on sale 20 inspire enthusiasm. There
were the usual traders on decK ready TO
bid for anything coming in. but The light
run quite naturally sent the spirit OF the
trade down TO the bed rock. The arly
morning sales were confined to few
scattering punches of wagon hogs and
such local trade as vaoidsd coming in the
Gay before. The offerings in this branch
however, were not good enough to bring
any more than figure within ten cents
OF the top later put on the market Tor
the day. The wagon trade was fairly
good, all things considered, in point OF
quantity, but the quality was generally
low, the catering buncneS being OF com
mon stuff and always bringing all they
could command. 1t may be said for all
It Is worth that the first two loads to
cross the scales went at the top hgures
for the day. $3.50. These were 36ht hogs
but of very fair grade, one showing up
I'll pounds and one for 205 pounds. The
latter sold without dock and was a very
c-editable load. From these sales on down
70 the close the sales varied from $3.50 to
$780, the top Of the bulk coming very
near to the close. This was a load Of
200 pound hogs selling without dock at
e3.571s There were no really extra hogs
received through the day, the two top
loads being the best to come IN, and they
while very fair. could have been lmprov-
cd upon at time when a larger line
was being received. The day WAS light
In point of receipts, and the quality both
as to car lots and the local trade only
ordinary Yet the demand was all the
time strong and everything on sale went
at the best prices, all the otnerm arkets
counted in. Had there been more fat
prime butcher hogs received, and even
fairly good stock Of this grade, they would
have received the best of bidding and
sold we'll. AS 1t was, all sale stock was
promptly taken at FIVE higher prices, and
at night the hog section was empty, with
the close strong and the demand firm.
The week has been on the whole quite
satisfactory, and though today will prob
ably show light receipts, will end all
right.

CATTLE.

The cattle market yesterday rules stea-
ay with only fair line of offerings on
sale. Cows and heifers, and feeders were
the principal classes represented, and all
these sold readily and many more of equal
grade would have received as prompt at
tention. The demand for both feeders
and cattle is increasing on this market,
and such stock coming is bound TO receive
the best market price everywhere. Every
thing offered yesterday was promptly sold
and the close still strong. Frank Robbins
shipped out a car load of stockers last
night to Eureka, all bought on this mar

roughly mixed stock which was forward
