165 pounds and selling for S. 70 per cwt
one stocker, weighing $50, and selling at
$40; and one bull, weighing 1870, and
bringing 800.
The bold business yesterday showed the
unmistakable signs of the graduel renew
al Of this line Of mercantile produce. For
several weeks this firm have been more
than averaging up with their record last
year, and the present season't business
proportionately of Their big packing estab-
lishments. Nevertheless, as every dealer
knows. this is the season Of poultry, the
holiday season, and the slaughtering of
the pet dish-water and kitchen refuse
fattened family pig, and the sales of abat-
toir products always falls off a little. Yes
terday showed about the best early signs
Of the picking up of the trade, and the
jobbing and express trade especially was
heavy, with a good line of future delivery
sales and o fair output from the contract
car lot division.
Yesterday the statement of the yards
business was as follows: Tops, 50. 40;

HOG MARKET STEADY
Large Supply of Hogs But
Quality Common.
TOPS STILL AT $40
Cattle Steady With Light
Sales.
TOPS STILL AT $40

The Wichita hog market yesterday was
quotabIe as steady, with an increased sup
ply Of hogs such as they were, and with
other western markets reporting easy
tone. The volume of receipts was large
and with the three loads carried over
from the day previous, the supply was
sufficient in numbers TO meet the require
ments Of the trade. However, there was
no want of enthusiasm and the buying ele-
ment was eager and active for hogs and
readily bought in all that were offered
which were in anywhere near killing or
shipping condition. As matter of fact,
the quality was too common and cheap
10 be attractive and buyers might have
been excusable for holding off. There
were few good hogs entered at the
yards, and probably about three cars
which intact were sold at the best posi-
Bile prices. Most of the offerings were
common and poor low grade, light, skippy
stock overwhelmed the better class. The
best hogs in received the best prices and
q 5 cent top would have been put on any
hogs arriving which We're at all good,
the fancy grades not being expected or
hoped for. The tops were the same as
the day previous, while the bulk range
was stronger, ~ cents being the limit,
as against 10 cests the day before, and
with the range better for yesterday.
Light, underfed and immatured hogs were
offered and while these always sold at the
very best prices the universal markets
considered there was a lamentable want
Of better stuff to tone them up. The light
hogs and pigs, however, now have no
trouble in selling, as the renewed Montana
order is ready and willing to absorb this
class of pigs and lights at market prices,
thus relieving the shipper Of any possible
difficulty in disposing of his sorts and cut
outs. There were thirteen cars received,
besides a fun car load from the nearby
country trade. Two cars of better grade
hogs than have reached these yards Of
late were held over, not from want of
stiff bidding. but because there were spe-
cial conditions resting on their transfer
and these will cross the scales early to-
day. Three more came in late. and were
.-arded and taken care Of at once, while
three Of the registered representative
sales below were cars held over from
Monday. Slow and a shade lower and
steady marked the quotable markets all
over, and this market in demand and re-
ceipts and strength very well held its
