the Week Recoveries Were Made.
Sioux City Stock Yards, Sioux City, Iowa,
Aug. 26.-Cattle receipts at this market have
been liberal this week and with $500 head
sale the run shows gain of 1890 over last
week. The increase Is due to the heavier mar
keting of killers, also largely to the increased
constgnments of stockers on the two opening days
Of the week. The concentrating Of fat cattle
on the various markets on the two first days
Of the week resulted in liberal breaks in values
and prices ruled generally 20 cents to 20 cents
lower than last weeks close. While receipts at
this market were not heavier than the packers
could well take care OF, the unfavorable condi-
lions had effect the Sioux City market and
buyers bought their cattle 10 cents to rs cents
lower with the inferior grassers taking the most
of the decline. Later In the week receipts were
not sufficient each day to make killing and
values regalned big share of the earlier de-
cline and closing quotations are not generally
over dime lower than last weeks close. There
is just good demand for~cattle at this point
on every day of the week and shippers should
with cattle a Monday, thereby cutting down
their own profits and also leaving the slaugh-
| terers with not enough cattle to make killing
at the close Of the week. Cattle shipped to this
market will be taken care of to as good advant-
age on Saturday as earlier In the week. The
top beeves this week $5.15, but there
has been great scarcity Of corn-fed cattle and
only few loads of steers have been marketed
of the just fair order selling at $41O to $4.65.
The bulk of the offerings in killings were grass
ers. The natives ranged from 1926 to So, and
there were quite number of range cows mar
keted that came in competition with the natives
| at about the same figures. Gamers ranged from
$3.50 to $500 In range steers the offerings sold
at SO to $8.G5 and arriving early in the week
were considered fully rs cents lower than the
week previous -..t...s-. ~.
| There has been better tone to the stocker
trade. An increased country demand took care
of the heavier marketing and there is not a
larger proportion of cattle to be carried over
| than last week. Prices showed no quotable
change with last week and the heavier market
ing sold on a basis Of steady with last week.
The past two days prices have ruled about 10
cents lower owing to the lateness of the week,
but with moderate marketing the coming
week there is reason that prices should not
be we'll maintained and in fact decided pref.
ence is being shown for the heavier feeders,
sirable kinds. The lightweight steers have
have been hard sellers this week and this class
Of cattle will not likely sell to any better ad.

ers sold at 1926 to $685.: = Yearlings were in
limited supply and sold at 1910 to $a4o. Stock
heifsrs comprised only "a small al share Of the
Hogs-The quality Of hogs this week has
been inferior and the percentage has been run
ming largely to packing grade. Butcher weights
, were in demand and these sold at good mar
gin each day above the packing grades. The
packers took advantage of the fact that the
shipping demand was not very liberal to bea,
down on prices and the week closes with hogs
selling at $40 to Sc, and the bulk Of the salei
at $3.50 to $500, which is only steady with tn,
closing quotations OF last week, and fully X
cents lower than last weeks high time. There
was some advance In the market on Wednesday
: but this was lost and values are not hardly vi
to the opening of Monday last. d. g.
