UNION STOCKYARDS. INDIANAPOLIS.
Feb. 1.-THE receipts Of hogs to-day were nearly
twice as large as a week ago and the supply
was fully equal 70 the average at this time in
the week The market opened with all buyers
IN the field and an active request for practically
all kinds. The conditions. therefore, were ia
vorable to sellers. although the reports from
other competing markets did not Justify ad-
vance here, and higher prices were being asked.
Under the influence Of aggressive competition
an early arrangement OF terms was made. and
practically from the start there an active
market az unevenly higher prices. In a general
way sales were quoted 5g1Oc higher than yes
terday. On that basis the morning receipts
were soon exhausted At this time there seemed
10 be rather a strong feeling in the market and
there were hardly enough later consignments to
change the conditions materially. The impor-
tant orders, however. had evidently been ex-
ecuted and the last arrivals could not be sold
at the advance The last sales made were re-
ported steady at the advance, and representa-
tive sales indicate the average for the day was
q big sc higher than yesterday The extreme

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the rather unsatisfac-
tory Developments in the cattle market hereto
fore this week the receipts to-day We're again
comparatively liberal and rather larger than ex-
pected at this time in the week. About the
usual variety OF stock was represented, which
means that there were not a great many In any
department good enough 20 sell around top quo
tations- In the steer line the market most of
the day was characterized by continued indiffer-
ent feeling among buyers and sellers had more
or less difficulty in placing the supply at yes
teToay's prices Later IN the day, however. there
was fair outlet that basis and the clear
ance vas as good as usual. There was also
another weak market for heifers, and cows did
not sell strong yesterday. although
sentative sales do not indicate that there was
any quotabe change in prices The market for
all kinds OF cattle late in the day appeared to
be trihe more active than earlier but this
was probably because statesmen were becoming
reconciled to taking the prices There an
other very fair demand for bulls and sales were
at steady to strong prices. but calves sold gen
orally 25c lower than yesterday. In the stocker
and feeder line the demand continues very
small and hardly enough business is being trans
acted 70 indicate the true condition of the
