DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards. Sept. 20.
Receipts during the week just past
haye been the heaviest of the season
on this market. The average quality
was very good. but not as good as the
preceding week. Trade has been gen
orally reported dull and slow on the
eastern markets and prices close any
where from 8 to 10 cents lower than a
week ago. These reports, however.
have had very little effect on the trad.
ing here. Cows were little slow sale
during the first few days. but this
was on account Of liberal re.
ceipts. and all other classes OF
cattle moved well. Good light
weight beef steers carrying plenty OF
flesh are In strong demand and fully
steady with n week ago. Medium and
common steers are weak TO dime
lower. Cows dropped fully a quarter
early but during the last few days
buyers have shown more desi.'e for
them and some OF this loss has been
resained. Prices are still 10 to Is
cents lower than week ago. Very
few bulls came for the market. but the
demand was not strong and those on
sale went ut about steady prices. Vcals
were strong at the opening. but liberal
receipts caused drop OF about a quar-
ter before the close. II was a lively
week In feeder and stocker circles. The
supply was better than any week this
season. but buyers took them all and
would have bought good many more
had they been offered. Eastern mar
kcts report n duh trade but tho move
mcnt here has been active at steady
prices. Receipts expected TO be liberal
this week and good trade anticipated.
The Log market shows very little
change from week ago. Receipts
have been very li.ht and packers
would have taken good many more
had they been offered: $40 represents
about top prices with the range down
to SS.a5.
