Was a Big Saturday for Hog
Receipts,
WERE BUYERS FOR ALL
Market Was 5 Cents Lower
Here.

Shippers were told through this column
the first of last week that hogs brought
to this market on Saturday would find
buyers the same os on other days OF the
week. The truthfulness OF that assertion
was demonstrated yesterday. There was
a good supply of hogs and there were
buyers for everything offered. The mar
ket here was lower the same as other
western markets but about a nickle would
cover the decline here. There were some
fairly good hogs among the offerings but
there was a large per cent Of lights and
pigs The buyers all seemed 10 want
hogs and il is epected this week VIII
be a good one for sellers in so far as
competition among buyers is concerned
1t is the intention Of the buyers here TO
keep in line with the big markets of the
country and there is little doubt that sell
ers Will obtain comparatively good prices
here this week. No shipper in Wichita
territory can afford TO run past this mar
ket. Those who have tried that ex-
pertinent have not proAtted by it.

Stock Letter,


 By Private Wire to Sledge Commercial Company.
 Birmingham, June 11.-London news was more encouraging. with prices for Americans A@% above parity, and this, together with the bullish interpretation of the government crop report, brought about higher range of values with M P, St. Paul and American Linseed the features. Trading broadening during the forenoon and there was a general ad- vance, but later the whole market sold off under the pressure on Missouri Pa cifc. The close was irregular.
 Missouri Pacific was the feature throughout, leading the decline under the heavy pressure brought to bear on this stock with a view to breaking the whole list and then being the security in which late buying orders were centralized on the report that insiders had given it out that there would soon be an important deal announced in connection with the property. Texas Pacific was another stock that suffered from selling pressure for the same reason as Missouri Pacific, though it was reported that the selling was caused by the rumor that this road would not share in the forthcoming deal as favorable as had been expected.
 Stocks favorably affected by prospective dividends were L. & N. on which per cent is talked; Steel. common, on which 4 per cent for common is being rumored almost with certainty. An extra divi- dend on St. Paul and the forthcoming one in Southern Pacific.
 L. & N. is scarce in the loan crowd and Is being bought by a strong pool on ex- cellent earnings and cheapness as a divi- dend payer The buying of the steel stocks was better than for some time, the best people in the street picking them up.

to say nothing of the possibility of an early killing frost, which may completely change conditions, Most extreme views prevail as to the exact crop situation to- day Shorts are sending in numerous ac- counts of improvement and New Orleans is the fountain head for the discrimination of more or less bearish information, es- pecially so pointing to the Texas crop which there is reason for believing is far from brilliant, as claimed. Fair weather was reported in every section today, in fact not a single station reported rains. Buying of August by commission houses was the feature, as 8 rule hesitation was shown pending weekly government re- port which, when 1t appeared, showed a mixed condition as generally was ex- pected and had no immediate effect on the market. Port receipts today 5000 vs. 250O last year. Futures at Liverpool one to two points lower.
