Hogs-Receipts, $500; shipments, $500. In
keeping with the general weaker tendency
in the trade everywhere, the hog market
opened quiet, with the conditions the most
favorable for lower prices. Packers were
not making any bids, but at the start
shippers bought quite a number of loads
at 567lkc lower prices than yesterday. How
ever, when it was evident that there would
be little opposition from packers the de-
mand was not so keen and there was
gradual slump in the bidding. During the
day sales were reported all the way from
sc to zoe lower and it is probably safe to
say that the average was big 10c below
yesterday. AT a very late hour quite
number of loads had not changed hands,
but the indications favored good clear
ance at the lowest prices of the day. Quo
