Denver Live Stock Market.

Denver, Aug. 8l.-Receipts OF live

Yards for the month approximate
II, 900 cattle, $500 hogs and $1,000
sheep. The market for the month
closes with prices on everything ex-
cept cows ruling firm at the decline
inaugurated at the beginning. Cows
at the close Of the market Saturday
were 10 to 15c lower than the begin
ming of the week. Receipts at all
the markets have been running heavy
In this class of stock. The last sales
here were made at 42.35 to $2.55,
poorer stock selling as low ~ t2.0O-
that is to go to the butchers. There
is strong demand for good grassers,
especially steers, AZ feed lots are
about empty OF fed cattle and packers
have to depend upon grassers for
their supplies. The top price for
cows last week was 1886. Steers are
selling more frequently below the &c
mark than above 1t. None OF the
beef steers from the ranges are good
enough to bring high prices. They
are too soft as a rule. Veal calves
are only in fair supply and the last
shipment sold at 1915 There IL very
little demand for stockers and feeders
a. yet and the general market situa-
ton is little changed from what 1t
was . week ago. Cattle In good
flesh will bring fairly good prices but
the demand Ia only for good killing
stock. The reports about the corn
crop are discouraglng, many OF the
heavy producing sections having suf-
fered greatly by floods the past sea-
son, and the prices for feeders this
fall are not at all promising.
