CATTLE-The combined receipts of cattle
at the principal market points were OF
liberal proportions, so that prices suffered
a still farther decline. Sellers, of course,
made an attempt to hold values steady, so
that trading was slow from start to finish.
There were about 80 cars of cornfed steers
here this morning and the quality was GER
tainly no better than of late. Buyers
seemed to be very Indifferent and when
they started out their bids were generally
a dime lower than the prices paid at the
close Of last week. Sellers wanted steady
prices, so the morning was we'll advanced
before many cattle had changed hands.
situation, however, did not show much
Improvement. SO that the bulk of the cattle
had to sell right close to a dime lower.
There was some unevenness to the trade,
but as a general thing the prices paid
were right around 10c lower than the close
of last week. Buyers did not seem to be
very anxious for supplies, so sellers had to
take what the packers would give. 1t was
late before anything like a clearance was
made.
Bulls were again very slow sale and
prices II anything were a little lower, but
statesmen had a hard time to dispose of
what they had at any price. Veal calves
continued in good demand at steady prices.
Although the fat cattle market was lower
this morning the demand for the better
grades of stockers and feeders continued
brisk and prices were fully steady. A good
many of the warmed-up cattle again sold
to feeder buyers. The common kinds OF cat
tie were not in as good demand, but still
they brought as much as was paid last
week. Representative sales:

The market opened active and steady to

soon disposed of. There were no strictly

market opened firm at an advance Of 5al2

most immediate incentive the pronounced
strength or the market at Liverpool. which
reported an advance of 4Q7ia points before
the, opening, while spot there was $ points
htgher, with sales reported at 10000 bales.
IN ADDITION to the strength in Lverpooi Il
was seen that the receipts fol' the day
would compare favorable with las. wears.
Following the call, however, there was
considerable liquidation for profits. which
carried values back to a point or so under
the opening level. The proft-taking tend
ency was encouraged by the estimates for
tomorrow's receipts at Houston, which
were placed at 1l,O00 to 1900 bales, as COM
pared with 1854 last year. The hrmness of
these figures was but momentary, however,
and gave way before the active covering
of shorts. There were Indications that the
pubhc became interested In the market as
buyers. and while the estimated receipts
were considered heavier than expected tn
indications for exports, which reached 81
ceipts of 1888 bales, led to predictions of
stin higher prices, and the market. aside
from brief intervals of proft-taking, ruled
very strong and active. At the high point

Boy Fined for Being Drunk.

Still in his teens and not accustomed to
the ways of the world, d. A. Stoddard stood
before Police Judge Berka and admitted
that he had been drunk and disorderly.
When the complaint was read to him,
charging that he used ~profane language,
he had naught to say, having been too
intoxicated to remember his statements.
The court gave him a few words of faith
erly advice, cautioned him about calling at
the court again, and then fined him 50 and
costs. Stoddard refused to disclose the
name of the person who furnished him with
the liquor. He gave his age as is years.
