CATTLE-There was another big run here
today, about 329 loads being on sale. The
receipts were some l03 cars heavier than
last Wednesday and some thirtytwo cars
lighter than the same day last year. The
general quality of the cattle was good.
There was a fair sprinkling Of native
stuff on sale and there were some good cat
tie offered. Buyers seemed to want the
cornfeds more than they did the westerns
them, although buyers were in bearlsh
mood all the morning and there was weak
tone to the trade all through. Buyers were
not anxious for cattle of any class and the
movement could not be called active at any
time. Prices on native stun were generally
weak to a little lower, while the common
kinds were OF a dime. Western cattle were
in good supply but buyers were not overly
anxious for them and they did not change
hands very rapidly. The general market
on these kinds was on 5Ql0c, with the COM
moner kinds feeling the full benefit Of the
decline.
Cows and heifers were in fair supply to-
day but the demand was not active and
trading was slow. Buyers pounded the she
stun yesterday and were in a bearish mood
again today, so that conditions were against
selling interests. The general COW trade
was 5q1Oc lower and some OF the common
kinds were on even more than this.
Bulls. veal calves and stays were also
weak and prices were lower.
There was a good supply Of stockers and
feeders here, and while there was a good
call for the stun, buyers were inclined to
be bearish and trading was rather slow at
lower prices. Good, heshy feeders We're
weak while the general run OF stun was
weak to u dime lower Representative

more or less held in check by the attitude
