While Desirable Cattle Sold a
Little Higher Market Has
Been Slow
HOGS AcTIvE-21s TO HIGHER
Sheep Were Unchanged Tho Weeks
Receipts Nearly EauaIed Those of
Last Week-Prices Broke But Re-
covered Without Much Decline and
Close Was Steady.

Chicago, Dec. 23.-Cattle--The mar
ket closed quiet, offerings being of
common grade. Supplies have been
very large for so close to Christmas.
whole however, with Il good share Of
desirable offerings sold during the
week taken little higher than last
week, but the market was slow and
little lower on the average during the
latter part Of the week. Butcher stock
was fairly active but sold down 10@15
cents late in the week.
The general market this week has
been good throughout, strength in de-
mand for most offerings attestng to
q broad consumptive outlet, although
the receipts of 1880 in five days have
been fully sufficient to fill all orders.
and as the week closes it is evident
that coolers are well filed with beef
and the christmas holiday In trade is
not expected to result in any eXcep-
tionally urgent call for cattle after
Tuesday of next week.
Holiday weeks are good ones in
which to practice conservative market
ing, as the uncertainty of beef de-
mand usually curbs orders from
.slaughterers, and at this time, after
the liberal buying in the past two
weeks, packers should be in position
to lay off next Monday without being
forced to urgent purchases in later
days.
Hogs.
The market was active, prices rul-
ing 21a as higher Hogs sold at 4.s5
@5225a the bulk going at 5.00@5.15.
Fridays good market is likely to
start big run of hogs marketward
next week. The sellers are fearful that
there will be a break in consequence,
and they are advising against a big
supply with which to open the market
on Tuesday.
Sheep.
The market was unchanged. with In
significant supply The weeks receipts
were nearly as large as those of last
week and prices groke 25 @50 cents for
both sheep and lambs, but rallied later
with much decline.
Receipts for the week are: Cattle,
rs, GEO; hogs. 100000; sheep, $4,000.
Last week-Cattle, $4,000; hogs, 1917
600; sheep. 100000.

Suckers and Feeders.

Chicago. Dec. 23.-Country demand
in late days has not come up to expec-
tations and the yard traders have been
carrying a big stock of high steers
which they bought early this week at
high prices There was fair call for
good to choice strong weight feeders
today from eastern buyers, but these
were the only ready sellers, supplies of
plain and medium classes being far
above demands. Most steers of this
class were offered at decline of 15c
compared with early prices this week,
while ranging steady with a week ago.
