SHEEP-Receipts OF sheep and lambs
were liberal again this week, there being n
big gain over the corresponding week OF
last year. The increase for the year to
date now amounts to about 5000 head,
Inc market has been very active all tho
week, with the tendency OF prices decidedly
upward, Good stun in particular has been
In big demand. The advance for the week
may be quoted 2oG40c, the greatest advance
being on yearlings, yves and lambs. There
have been no prime lambs offered here this
week, so that the market on paper has not
looked very high, but a strictly prime bunch

500. II is very evident from the way pack
ers act that they are anxious for supplies,
as they have bought practically everything
that arrived here as soon as unloaded.
Feeders have been in very light supply
oil the week, and as there has been quite
a demand prices have improved. The quo
tations below will show the prices at which
the different lines are selling.

LONDON, Feb. 22.-The stock market
opened and closed with a very strong feel
ing, but in the middle of the week II showed
some weakness. Consols struck the lowest
point they have reached this year, because
OF home selling, Anne. lean rails were list
less, Grand Trunks again being the feature
of transatlantic dealings. There IS, how
ever. a note of returning confidence in
ture of the week was the failure of the
New Zealand loan, of which the home
traders were forced to take 90 per cent,
The bank rate remained unchanged and
this was a disappointment and had a de-
pressing effect on business.
BERLIN, Feb. 22,-The bourse had a quiet
tivity. German and foreign government
bonds were not traded In the usual volume
and mostly weakened moderately. The an
nual of the domestic banks are
beginning to be published, the market Civ
ing much less attention to them than in
previous years. The statements thus far
have not wholly satisfied tine market hence
the bank stocks have reacted from the high
figures previously reached. Heavy trading
was done in Industrial shares, but without
a uniform tendency, Coalers were unusually
strong upon the declaration of a "a per cent
dividend by the Consolidated Coal COM
pany. the same dividend as in 1901. Con-
solidated Coal company stock rose 20 poihts
on this dividend. other coal shares advanc
mostly somewhat higher. All the German
cast iron piping mills have formed a price
agreement and reports from the iron mar
moderate reaction after the heavy advance
recorded during the previous weeks. Tex
tiles were unusually active. Wooden mills
were generally lower, but linens and cottons
rose strongly, the latter upon the large adj
vance in cotton and yarns during the
month. Clements were heavily dealt in,
| owing to the convention for fixing the price
OF cement. but the shares were mostly
unable TO maintain the high quotations they
had already reached. Hamburg-AmeElcan
and North German Lloyd shares were
mostly lower and there were few dealings
in them. Money was offered for the monthly
settlement in the greatest abundance, but
| could hardly be placed at the lowest rates.
The London exchange is again rising and
II is believed that gold will go to London
this week.

CATTLE-There were several cars Of cat
tie reported this morning, but not enough
Of them were offered for sale to make a
market. For the week receipts have been
quite liberal In spite of the extreme cold
weather and a good increase liz noted over
the corresponding week of last year. For
the year to date there Is a gain or coout
10000 head.
The beef steer market this week has been
tendency OF prices upward. The demand
has been equal to the supply and each
days offerings changed hands in good sea-
SON. A larger proportion OF the receipts
consisted of steers than at any former time
this season. but the proportion will doubt
less be still large In the future, as advices
from the country show that the bulk Of the
fed COWS have been marketed. As COM
pared with the close Of last week 1t Is safe
big Quarter higher than the low time of last
week. The greatest Improvement has been
on the handy and medium weight cattle
That is owing to the fact that from this
time on there will be a surplus Of heavy
cattle, while light and handy weight cattle
will be comparatively scarce. That, how
ever, is generally the case at this season
OF the year and the range of prices usually
price paid for steers this week has been
$500, but a strictly prime bunch would sell
above that figure.
strong all the week and a net gain Of Csc is
reported and in some cases the advance has
to cutters and cornfeds. Gamers have not
been in very strong demand and prices are
only about steady as compared with the
close of last week. Canners sell largely
from 800 to $40, the medium grades from
S2.76 to 1926 and choicer kinds from 1926 to
$4.S.
Bulls nave not shown any quotable
change all the week, as the demand is still
limited for that class of meat. The bulk
sell from $3.50 to $S25, with choice grades
around $3.50. Veal calves have been active
and steady, top grades bringing $6.25.
The stocker and feeder market has shown
very little change this week. Offerings have
been light and the quality poor, and prices
may be quoted just about steady. The adj
vance in the price of fat cattle this week
has taken the warmed-up cattle out OF the
reach of feeder buyers, so that practically
nothing that has been fed corn now sells
for feeders. Common etockers and feeders
are selling from $500 to 1850, fair to good
from $3.50 to So 70 and the better grades
from 1915 to S4.25. Representative sales:
