The disposition of the days receipts was
as follows, each buyer purchasing the
number head indiCatad.

CATTLE-There was another light run Of
cattle on the market this morning, ia cars,
about $500 head, being reported in. This is
about 1000 head larger than the run for the
same day last week and is also larger than
for the corresponding day one year ago by
about 200 head. The receipts for the week
so far total only 800 head, against 1871
head for the first four days of last week.
Monday being n holiday. however, cut the
run down considerably. AS compared with
the run for the first four days of the same
week last year 1t is larger by about 1850
head.
There was only a moderate supply of beef
steers on the market and generally speak
ing the quality Of the offerings was rather
common Trading was reasonably active
and anything that was at all desirable
found ready sale at prices that were fully
steady with yesterday. There were few
loads that sold at what looked to be strong,
while on the other hand where the quality
was quite common they sold a little easier.
So TO sum the whole thing UP in few
words trading was fairly brisk with prices
practically steady.
The supply OF cows and helfers was also
rather limited and the quality generally
was of the inferior kind. Trading was
choice cows at times sold at what appeared
TO he rather strong prices and others per-
haps would sell a shade lower. The market
was uneven, but prices remained quotably
unchanged from yesterday.
There was only light supply OF stockers
and feeders, while there was a good demand
for any good stock. Trading was active
and prices were steady TO strong.
