Market Good.

DENVER UNION STOCK YARDS, Oct.
% Trade here last week was the best

were about 1000 more than the pre-
ceeding week, but buyers were plenti-
full and competition active for any
thing desirable and good cattle ad-
vapced 1Oc to 2Oc during the week.
This advance was due entirely to the
good local demand as eastern markets
declined anywhere from SC to 25c on
anything not strictly choice. Beef
steers were scarce and wanted. One
bunch of choice North Parkers arrived
and sold at s4.l 10, the highest price paid
in several weeks. Few, however,
landed above $3. rs and the bulk ranged
from this down to 1925. Receipts dur
ins the latter half of the week included
xery few steers that packers could use.
Cows sold well with $500 representing
the top and bulk of the pretty good at
s2.3j to $3.50. Bulls and veais just
about steady. The feeder and stocker
trade was the best in weeks. The sup
lly was liberal and plenty of buyers
for all of them. Most of the stuff went
+, fe d lots in Colorado, Nebraska,
Kansas and Missouri. Practically
aotfing forwarded to the other mar
kets. Some choice blacks sold at e3. rs
freight paid, with the bulk of the fair
10 pretty good steers ranging from this
down to $500.
Receipts today were the heaviest of
the season. being estimated at 5000
head. Eastern markets also had heavy
receipts and prices again lower. but
there wa, a good demand for every
thing here and the market fully steady
with close of last week.
The local sheep market was very
