MARKET WIS STEADY
Supply Good But Not Equal to
Demand for Hogs
TOPS STILL AT $500
Some Trading Was Done in
Cattle.

The hog market yesterday was one of
city on a Saturday for some time. There
was a lively demand for hogs. Arrivals
were moderate, but good as compared
with some Saturdays of late. The hog
run has been light Of late and. 10 this i
attributed in a measure the high prices
which are being p0id The market yes
terday was quoted as steady to 3 cents
higher There was a strong demand for
good mixed hogs and double the days
receipts would have been snapped up al
the ruling price. The supply was merely
an average lot, although there were sew
eral punches of wagon hogs which were
classed as first-rate butcher stuff. The
market opened strong at $751;. Later
of fair grade hogs were sold a shade
lower. Late in the evening a rally took
place and the price climbed UP TO the
opening. All day long the market com
pared well with other western markets.
st. Louis reported Hogs steady; good
demand Chicago said, Hogs active
and to 10 cents higher" Kansas City
reported Hogs steady to cents
higher"
There were ten cars of hogs in and a
fair rUSl Of wagon hogs. The latter
brought good prices and one large bunch
OF butchers stock going at 800, topping
the market.
There was small run of cattle, which
brought prices comparing very favorably
with the markets at Kansas City and
Chicago. There has not been a time in
years when the shipper of the southwest
could not do better on the Wichita mar
ket than he could on any other market
in the west.
