ket has been phenomenal the cur

the exception of one week being to ex-
cess Of last season and showing an in
crease the first seven months Of the
fiscal year of 1909 arrivals over the
corresponding period year ago. De-
mand the current week from all quar-
ters has been of larger proportions,
and general trade has displayed
stronger tone. The settlement Of the
local Transfers strike has broadened
the city demand and local orders show
liberal increase in volume. Many
members of the local teaming associa-
ton have been in the market the cur
rent week buying expressers, drafters
and wagon horses. and while values
are not quotably higher, sales have
been negotiated freer at former quo
tations. Dealers generally predict that
with the abrogation of the local strike
prices have touched the low level of
the year and that stronger tone will
be given to the future trade for all
business classes. Trade for the week
has been more aggressive at the fol-
lowing scale of prices:,
