One of Jour leading business men
gave the Free Press little informa
ton regarding the stock market OF
this city, and especially as regards
the hog market, which If it repre-
sents the general condition of things
ought TO receive the immediate at
tention of our business men. He
states that few days ago, farmer
living few miles from the city came
here with a dressed hog weighing
perhaps $50 pounds, that he traversed
the entire length of Front street, but
failed to obtain buyer for it. On
his way back up the street, SO our in
formant states, the farmer entered
one of the meat markets and asked
the proprietor what he would give
him for the hog, as he did not wish to
take it back home, and finally dis
posed OF it in that way. Our inform
ant further asserts that on the same
day, three or four loads of hogs were
brought here, and stood for several
hours on Front street, and tn it the
owners thereof tried to find a buyer
for them but could not. Did not
even secure bid, and that two or
three of these loads were taken to St.
Peter in the afternoon. II this is
