CATTLE-This has been one of the
hardest weeks in the cattle pens that
we have ever experienced here. Prices
on stock and feeding cattle fell rapidly,
and stock steers and feeders are now
quoted 75cQ$1 a hundred lower than the
high time, with heifers 60Q75c lower, and
little or no demand at the decline even
for the good cattle, while it is impossi-
BILE to give the common stuff away. Stock
and feeding bulls are SOC lower, with but
few moving. These conditions VIII be
found at every marketing point and are
not local at South st. Paul. Choice to
prime butcher cattle are selling fully
steady. Packers want best quality cattle
badly and are willing to pay high for
them. Medium grade killing stuff and
Gamers are a little lower than last week
and selling only fairly well. Sharp COM
petition has sent the price of veals up
75c in the last two days, top quality sell
ing at $625, but these prices will hardly
