All the live stock markets yesterday
were of considerable and dizziness marked
the trading everywhere. On the local
market there was little doing outside of
a fair line Of wagon and local stun, most
of which was very fair stock Only two
loads were weighed up, one Of heavyies
and one OF mediums. The demand was
only moderate. though all the local re-
ceipts coming in before noon were sold
at once at prices IN line with the re-
ports from other western points. The
quotation here was sc lower, and this
operated for all the sales made. There
was some disposition 20 quote a splis Of
"a to &c lower some OF the time, but the
close was a fat SC lower. Most of the
others were &c lower. and quoted as dull
and draggy. Friday is not often a busy
day a. the best, and yesterday the light
stun in some Of the offerings and the
slow demand made dull day. One Of
the two loads which crossed the scales
went at g. AZ and the other at s.. 40, with
the tops for wagon hogs at $3.52I2. Only
one bunch of hogs sold at It's figure. and
these were of exceptionally good stock,
which averaged 3A pounds and were prime
fat butcher hogs. There were several
fair-siZed punches Of driven-in hogs, and
these and the rest from this division
went at good prices and sold early. The
dockage was light and most of the offer
3ngs were straight. even hogs. II was a
light day all through, but in an cases the
local market was well In line with all
the rest and held Its own so far as there
was any trading.

New York. June 23.-Bradstreets finan-
cial review tomorrow will say; Irregular-
ity. with some exhibitions OF positive

latiOn for the last six days. The stock
market has been professional to an IN

connection the selling seemed 20 be the

bilt stocks, which might suggest an accu-
mulating process. and other groups. nota-
bly, the anthracite coal shares, were
steady and apparently waiting for devel-
oments. The short interest. though nat
uraliy much bigger than II was some
weeks ago, betraye a certain amount OF
nervousness and a decided readiness TO
cover at concessions which prevented the
declines from assuming a steady or de-
cided character. and in many cases lin
seem that the public and the street are
inclined to suspend judgment as 10
whether prices are too high or not until
a more definite conclusion as 20 the crop
results can be drawn. Discussion OF the
crop outlook was, however. lees pFeva-
