were received with delight by the ma.

So. Omaha Live stock Market

Special letter from Clay, Robinson &
Co, Union Stock Yards, South Omaha,
August 2lst, 1905
Cattle Supplies of cattle last Tues
day and Wednesday were quite heavy,
| about $4,000 head, and the MARI ct in the
two days declined about 25 (9 35c es
pecially for the commoner classes, while
the better kinds were right at 25c lower.
This pertains to all classes of killing
stock. However, the latter half of the
week only received moderate runs and
the market strengthened up materially,
and the close was not over 10 a. l5c low
er for the week. Heavy supplies were
alone the cause of the break, as there
appeared to be very good demand, but
packers had an opportunity to benefit
themselves, and very naturally took ad-
vantage Of it. Good to choice grass
beeyes are selling today at LOO IN S4.25
fair to good $3.50 a. $500. While COW
stuff was also lower the early part of the
week, the run was quite light late in the
week and this branch of the business
showed the most improvement. Tues.
day and Wednesday cows went off right
at 40c per cwt., but Fridays prices show.
ed up only about 20c lower for the " eek
Prices on stockers and feeders closed just
about 10 "a zoe lower for last week, ow-
ing to liberal numbers and rather light
inquiry the latter part of the week.
Good to choice heavy cattle are selling
at $3.65 a S400i fair to good $3.40 a.
1855. Light cattle around $3.50 "a

5000 cattle here today the market in all
branches is steady on good kinds, while

Recent representations to the govern

places for water, and food must be pro-
vided at no greater intervals than TWEEN
weight hours. 1t is also provided that
cars must not be overloaded and that
there shall be room for at least one-th;.d
of the animals to lie down at one time.
The number of cattle allowed to be car
ried in a thirty-six foot car under the
