Denver, May 3.-Not a single head
of cattle was sold in the Denver mar

men, almost without exception, wired
to their customers in all parts of the
West not to ship a single head of cat

are understood to have taken similar
action. Many thousands of head are

four days will pass before the effect of
the order is felt, but at the beginning
of next week it is thought little or no
