HOG MARKET STRONG
Good Monday Supply and
Trading Active.
CAR TOPS AT 1895
Cattle Steady With One Feed
er Deal of importance.

The hog market yesterday was quoted
as strong on the local market, with
very fair line Of receipts for Monday
and the trading active, the demand firm
and business lively and feeling buoyant.
The local market was thoroughly in line
with all the western markets and the
tone in every manner satisfactory. In
all, five cars crossed the scales with re-
ports Of some more as due later in the
night. The quality of the hogs offered
yesterday, both in the car line and the
wagon trade, was good. with the bulk of
them running heavy. The average weight
twas 35s pounds, for the five cars in.
There were really more heavy hogs in
than were wanted, but nevertheless they
were all bought, and good, strong prices
paid for them. 81. 90 was paid for wagon
hogs ranging from light to medium, and
four punches were sold at this figure.
s}s5 was the top for car hogs and three
cars sold at this figure, with long list
Of wagon hogs in usually small punches
selling at this same figure as for wagon
tops The bulk range was within nickel
limit and two cars sold at the 80 mini
mum point. There was not a heavy re-
ceipt Of hogs at any of the western re-
ceiving points, and this market showed
up very well with the rest. The
strength Of this market also was notice
able, and all hogs brought all they could
command anywhere. Heavy hogs were
the most in evidence at this point yester-
day, and this ruled at most of the west
ern markets. The wagon and local trade
was unusually heavy, especially for Mon
day For several days back the roads
have been so heavy that this branch Of
the trade lanFuished and the difficulty
bf getting hogs to market caused this
end Of the trade TO be decidedly weak
The reaction was noticed yesterday and
the local offerings were very satisfactory,
and all Of them, as well as the car stuff
sold at good prices.
