A Review of Prices and General Con-
 ditions for the Week.

Kansas City, Mo. Dec. 27.-Cattle and calf receipts at Kansas City last week amounted to 45.OOO head, against 41 500 head same week last year. Pro- portion of range stuff was small, but about what is expected at this season. Fat steers broke badly, losing 25 to 70 cents. and reaching the lowest point in the past seven years. Western steers sold from $3.50 to $4.25 mostly. Can ners and range cows lost very little, the best fed cows losing most. Stock CTS and feeders met good demand, in spite of the bad market on beef steers. and prices closed the week about like the close of the previous week, with a range of from S2.5O to S3.50 for bulk of sales Stock COWS sold mean, and fairly good heifers were to be had around $2.OO. Yesterdays run was only 6,OOO head. giving the market a needed rest. In consequence, prices are F to 9 cents better than the bad markets of last week. Most of the gain was on beef steers. Cows are 10 to 15 cents better. stockers and feed CTS are lively at strong to 10 cents higher prices. Stock calves remain dull, but veal calves are firm and wanted
 Sheep and lamb prices received a black eye last four days of last week. especially Thursday. Killing kinds were off 20 to 40 cents, most of this on fed yearlings, and least on lambs The break, though did not affect feed ing grade. Fed Ewes from Rocky Ford sold at S3.35 S1 pounds, but would have sold at about $3.1O last of the week. Fed yearlings reached $40 Tuesday. Wethers from Green River Utah, 118 pounds, brought $3.4O, and ewes in same shipment, IF pounds, brought S3.35, Tuesday. Other Utah wethers brought $S.5O. 90 pounds and feeding lambs, 63 pounds, sold at $3.75, Wednesday,. Fed western wethers, aged, sold as high as $3.95. Stock ewes from New Mexico brought S2.20.
