CATTLE-There was a fairly liberal run
OF cattle here this morning, which carried
the receipts for the year to date past the
million marx and breaks all previous rec
ords. Packers started in from the begir-
ing to pound the market and acted as
though they were trying TO take of h
they put on last week.
The market on cornfed steers was very
slow in opening and 1t was late before much
business was done. Packers were bidding
considerably lower and their bids were
rather uneven. AS a general thing, though,
the decline could be put at l0915c and
some statesmen were calling II leQSc lower.
All classes of cattle were effected, the bet
ter grades suffering the same as the com
moner kinds.
The COW market was also slow and lower
and tho decline was fully as much as on
steers. A few sales were mad early. TO
buyers who had to have some cattle In a
hurry, at prices that were not so much
lower, but when the market really opened
prices were fully 10015c lower and in a
good many cases more. Sellers, of course,
did not like to take of that much, so that
the trading was slow from start to finish.
Bulls and stays felt the effects of the
decline on steers and cows. but as they did
not advance airy great amount last week
the decline today was not so serious. Veal
calves did not show much change.
There were only just a few stockers and
feeders on sale this morning and as specu-
lators had practically nothing on hand they
all wanted a few and the market held fully
steady and desirable kinds sold quite
freely. Representative sales:

rather steadier. Grand Trunks reacted,
the November revenue being $4,000 below
expectations. Rio tintos were firm In sym
pathy with copper. kafiirs were firm on
secretary Chamberlain's progress In South
Africa. Public interest was lacking.
PARIS, Dec. g.-Three per cent rentes,
9f 4l1ac for the account. Business on the
bourse today was unsettled, the approach
of the option operations influencing opera
tors. Parquet stocks finished quieter. Rio
tintos were buoyed up by the sharp rally
in New York and the rise I'm the price Of
copper. Kafiirs were firm: there were a
few realizations in these securities The
private rate of discount was 215-l6 per
cent.

HOGS-Receipts of hogs were again light
at all points this morning, so that the
general tendency Of prices was upward
The market here opened just about Il dime
higher on the better weights and IL was
not long before they were mostly disposed
Of. Trading on the light stun. though, was
very slow, and the prices paid were un-
even. In some cases sales were made that
looked a dime higher than Saturday, while
In Others sellers could not get n bid that
was more than steady. IL was very evil
dent that packers were not at all anxious
for the lighter weights. and especially for
those weighing from 200 pounds down. The
bulk OF the sales went from $3.50 to $3.50.
The most OF the heavier hogs sold from
S6.52l9 to S6.57lR, with a few prime loads at
$3.50. The light stun sold from $3.50 down.
The close of the market was rather slow
owing largely to the fact that the light
hogs were left until the last and the feeling
was weaker. Representative sales:
