We're received from other points, and under
the influence Of a good local demand the
market advanced 10Ul5c. on the start the
market was, perhaps, not over "a dime
higher, but 1t soon took on more life and
strength, so that the general market could
be quoted l0dl5c higher. Good heavy hogs
sold largely at $500 to $40, and fancy
loads sold from $40 to $3.50, which carries
the market to as high a point as has been
reached this year. The medium weights
went mostly from $685. to 500, while the
lighter loads sold from $685. down. There
was not much Improvement in the demand
for the lightweight stun. which was left
until the last, and although that class Of
hogs also improved in price, 1t was hard
to get packers to take them. Everything
was disposed of at an early hour. Repre-
