HOGS-Recelpts of hogs this morning
were very fair being little smaller than
the run for the Same day last week and
practically the same as the receipts for
the same date one year ago Trains were
late again today and of the eighty cars re-
ceived only a small portion of them were
in at 10 O'Clock. The stun came struggling
in all during the morning and as a result
the market was only fairly active. Supplies
according to early reports, were fairly
large at all of the other market points, with
slight decrease-in prices. At this place
the majority OF the stun was made up of
medium and heavy weights, while the light
weights and choice bacon stun was little
scarce.
As was the case yesterday Hight weight
hogs were preferred and buyers we're tnk-
ing them up freely and at prices that were
about 2kc lower than yesterday in most
cases. Most OF the light weight butcher
stun sold at prices ranging from 81. 80 10
A.95, while the medium hogs, went at 81 81
10 A.90, making the prices on that kind OF
stun about PIC lower than yesterday.
Heavyweight hogs were Smore plentiful
and sold at prices that were generally
about a nickel lower than those OF yester-
day. The bulk Of the trading was done at
S4.S5 70 81 90. Representative sales:
