cars lighter tnan last Wednesday and twen-
Ty-nine cars heavier than the corresponding
day last year. Westerns made up the big
END or the offerings, although there was
sprinkling of native cattle on sale.
The beef steer trade was in about the
same condition as yesterday, although
prices were a shade lower on both the
native and western stun. The corn led
cattle are getting scarce and no one Is
looking for heavy runs Of these KINDS.
There has been an unusual number or ma
tives marketed already this season. On
these good corn feds, prices were a little
weak and the Commoner grades were lower.
The westerns make prices lower on the
common native cattle as they come IN
competition with them. Sellers did not
have their stun ready to show, early and
little was done till after 10 o'clock. Trading
was slow and duh and there was a weak
tone all through the morning. western

grades but lower on the common stun

.SHEEP-There was a pretty good run OF
sheep here today, about twenty-eight cars
being offered The stun was late in arriv-
Ing and came struggling in a load or two
at time all the morning. Only about one
half OF the receipts was in the barn by il
O'Clock and this fact made Il bad for sales
men and made the market slow and draggy.
The receipts were nearly all killers and the
feeder buyers faced another day when they
could do little or nothing. The same good,
strong demand that has been in evidence
here for some time was In force again to-
day, and prices were stronger. Trading
was active and II was evident that buyers
were anxious for supplies
There were plenty OF feeder orders In the
barn, but the receipts did not come any
where near meeting the requirements OF
the trade.

and the stocks affected had more inluenSo
by sympathy on the general list than
those which moved yesterday. The mar
ket nevertheless continued spotty and un-
even and showed moderate improvement in
the volume Of trading.
For some time after the opening there
was a broad and active market which
enabled traders to operate in and OUT
with facility, and which swept up fur
profits without any notable effect on the
trading which demonstrated the growth Of
it Is London discounts hardened again
today and buying for account Of that

here and there to serve as Sustaining
points while similar measures were ex-
tended to other portions of the list. En-
couragement 20 continue these efforts to
get prices stu higher comes largely from
the contemplation of the favorable general
conditions and prospects in the country.
There Is some revival however OF stories
of deals and of combinations surrounded
with more or less mystery after the man
ner Of the stories which are most effective
on sentiment at times Of speculative excite
ment. The vitality Of such rumors re-
gardlng the Northern Securities group
seems proof against all delays and dis
appointment Its renewed influence was
seen today in the rise In Union Pacific
which would benefit largely from the en-
HANGED valuation of Great Northern and
Northern Pacific.
The diminution in the fever cases at
New Orleans was Of cheerful augury for
the southern group, which however has
been singuarly Indifferent heretofore to the
possible harm to the earning capacity from
the yellow fever outbreak. News from
the crops showed no change in the favor
able progress in the grain region with
the exception of some professed uneasiness
over the effect on corn of low temperature
and possible frosts in the northern por-
lions of the belt. The corn products stocks
had the benefit of the reported ending of
the severe competition in the glucose mar

a sustaining effect in the equipment group.
