UNION STOCKYARDS. INDIANAPOLIS.
Jan. 3.-Receipts. $50; shipments. 200. The
receipts of cattle were again comparative
ly liberal, and nearly all kinds were rep
resented, with the quality generally more
satisfactory than yesterday The market
opened with no really urgent demand for
any kind. and early indications were for
lower prices. Statesmen, however, were
firm in their demand for at least steady
prices, and finally succeeded in making
clearance on that basis. There were no
fancy steers represented, but good kinds
sold as high as Sc; heifers sold high as
$780, and export cows as high as s475

on the petition of the Lewiston. Bruins

fully go over the arguments at that
hearing, discuss the Legislative acts
bearing on the case, and give fully
the reasons for THEW decision. The pc

the railroad commissioners have only
dhe power to determine the location
of the proposed line in the streets
without regard to the question of pub

railroads organized under charters and
those organized under general law.
