Hog receipts were heavy yesterday for

after the market closed. Cudahy and
Dold He'd their orders and Armour tried
to buy everything that was left at Kan
sas City prices, freight off. but some OF
the commission men refused his offers
and about dozen car loads were held
over. Sellers have arrived at the con-
clusion that hogs sold to the Wichita
packers bring a little bit more clear
money than could be realized for them
on any other market and hence they are
the popular buyers. Ii would be dlf-
ficult matter to keep a force OF men in
the packing houses that would enable
them TO handle all the hogs when they
come so irregular, and for that reason
