Market Gossip.

Chicago, Jan 22.-The general quail
ity of hogs yesterday was not so good
as day before yesterday.
There were only a few loads of fat
cattle received yesterday Best of
these went at $685..
Sheep and lamb arrivals were any
thing but attractive condition, fleeces
being wet and muddy.
During the past three months farm
ers of South Dakota have purchased
in small lots over 1900 horses from
Nebraska breeders
Chicago's combined receipts of cat
tie, hogs and sheep for 1902 to date
exhibit 100000 increase compared with
last year. The number of cars OF
stock received is 1000 more than u
year ago.
The horse section of the Chicago
market is holding up as Well as cat
tie. sheep and hogs. Superintendent
Thomas Bell says the receipts are
phenomenal. The total
number direct to this market since Jan.
is 4,59S, against 3,776 for the same
period last year, an increase of S22.
They are a little thinner in flesh, but
the quality is up to last years stand
ard.
With the holiday season over there
is a gradual increase in the move
ment of horses abroad. Orders are
larger and more urgent, but not near
ly of the proportions of last year. The
advance ir values in the wholesale
markets and the commercial depres-
sion in several of the largest import
ing districts has curtailed the volume
of expectations.

Chicago. Jan. 22-The run of cattle
Friday was $500 head and there was
a strong active demand for all desir-
able grades of steers. Everything
suitable for killing, shipping or export
was bought at prices fully steady with
Mondays advance In fact, in some
cases cattle sold at even stronger rates
than they would have brought Mon
day. Good to choice fat cattle are
fully Is to 25 cents higher than last
week and the fair to medium kinds
are 10 to Is cents higher. Indications
do not point to a liberal supply the
balance of the week and the advance
is expected to be sustained The
butcher stock market was active at
fully steady prices, except that can
ming stock sold and at generally lower
rates as compared with the close of
last week.
The receipts of hogs were 10000 and
the market opened 5 to 10 cents lower.
but weakened soon after and the great
bulk of the sales show 10 to Is cents
decline, and, in fact, in the case of
light hogs, practically 90 cents lower.
Not all of the supply has been sold at
the close and the outlook is only fair
for the rest of the week. The best de-
mand is for nice fat medium weight
hogs.
The run of shep Monday was $4,000
head and the market ruled fully
steady. The best lambs sold at $3.50
to Sc; prime fat heavy export sheep
up to $3.50 and the best yearlings at
s5.15 per cwt.

POST.GRADCATE HOSPITAL WORK
1884 Patients Admitted Free Last Year
New De> elOpmcnts.

The eighteenth annual report Of the di-
rectors Of the POSTGRADUATE Hospital, just
issued tells of excellent work done, although
larger contributions are needed to carry
out successfully the plans in the various
departments. The largest individual con-
tributions last year were s?5. 900 from Mr..
II. n. L. Sherman, IS OPS from Mrs Andrew
Carnegie and 5000 from Nathaniel v hit
man.
In the course Of the year s9f patients
occupied free beds and 1922 were treated
free in TIE dspensary. The year was one of
expansion in several respects. A new
medical ward was opened in the top of the
building. II contains twenty-four beds
and Is entirely devoted TO medical cases
A new ward, the Hope Ward. was created
out Of some Of the smaller rooms and es-
tablished through the generosity Of as
II. Y. L. Sherman. II contains twenty
beds The private rooms have been in
creased to twenty-six by the change of the
medical ward to another floor, and the ser
wants Of the institution have been lodged
in another building.
The directors ask especially for more
funds for the separation OF patients suffer-
ing from diseases Of the eye, ear, nose and
throat The establishment OF a hospital for
contagious diseases Of the eye alone. they
say. would save many thousands OF dollars
