CATrLE-There was a light run Of cattle
here today, so that the market steadied
up little. Buyers took hold quite freely
and an early clearance was made. The
general market is quite a little lower than
week ago, but still IL is higher than the
low point of the week.
There were only a few punches OF beef
steers in the yards, and the market was
quite active and fully steady, AS is apt to

The bull market showed no Improvement
so far as the better grades were concerned,
and in fact the trade was very uull ana
buyers did not seem to care whether they
got any or not. Packers claim that the
demand for bull meat is the poorest IL mas
been for a good many years, ana that they
have to sell the best grades at little Detter
than Gamer prices. For that reason they
will not buy any bulls unless they can get
them for a good deal less money than they
were paying a short time ago. veal calves
held steady again today.
There were only a few stockers ana reed

held about steady, but owing TO the close
