TIL. marketing OF cattle for the week thus far
indicates an increase of 700 the same time
last week and little change compared with the
corresponding time year ago. The receipts
to-day were comparatively liberal, showing q
gain OF about 300 over a week ago and 100 over
q year ago. There almost a complete va
riety OF grades represented and the consign-
ments included a number Of very good cattle
but IL any different the proportion OF stock un-
finished or not well up to the standard in quality
was larger than heretofore this week. On ac-
count of what evidently ample supply
the market opened with buyers o little back
ward. and. although practically all dealers were
in the field. 1t required considerable argument
to establish prices that would move the supply.
1t was observed that all buyers were more par
ticular as quality than they have been for
some time past, and on that account the steers
that were well up TO the standard In this re-
spect were the first TO sell. There was also very
little difference OF opinion as to the condition
OF the market for this class and In nearly all
cases they were quoted steady at the recent
decline In prices II required more time and
harder work to sell the unfinished stock and,
from the difference in the opinions OF statesmen,
prices evidently were irregular. 1t not un-
common to hear of lower sales and probably all
transactions represented some weakness. but II
was not generally admitted that there was any
great change. In the market for female butcher
cattle the best COWS and heifers sold usually on
a basis OF steady prices and. in fact. all COW
stuff sold about up to former prices. but medium
heifers were possibly some lower. There was
another liberal supply OF calves and a further
reduction OF about 5oc in prices. There was not
a large supply OF feeding cattle. but II was fair
and about the usual clearance made at
quotably steady prices. Steers averaging 1854
to 14s2 lbs sold s5-25a5.so with lees desirable
kinds averaging 1850 lbs at x.o5a5lo. Aside
from two sales the top price for heifers to-day
was p.s5. and quite a number sold at $500
