MIDWAY HORSE MARKET Mime
sofa Transfer, ST. Paul-Barrett & Zim-
norman S report: The outlet, as we'll as
the receipts of horses, was liberal. The
tone to the trade was most satisfactory,
with an upward move in prices on the
heaviest and irSt-clasS horses. The cold
weather created a strong activity in
trade, leaving no room I'M for any doubt that
all previous weeks this fall The light
ard inferior grade horses had no partfc-
ular attention by buyers but sold in a
larger quantity than heretofore. Quota
