IIOGS-There was only about forty-one
cars reported In at 10 o'clock but the
trade was expecting more. The quality OF
the receipts was just about up 70 the aver
age, but conditions were again against sell
ket for a still further decline. Trading
was slow and draggy all through the morn
ing and buyers were Indifferent on every
thing except the very best kinds and we're
not overly anxious for them. Advices
from eastern points were discouraging, and
this fact had a depressing effect on condi-
tions here. The market on the good kinds
was 5al0c lower and on the rough heavy
and common grades the decline amounted
TO fully a dime The bulk OF the hogs
sold at t5lOd5l5. with a couple on Hght
loads selling up 10 $50. There was no
improvement TO the trade as the morning
advanced and a clearance was not made
till late. Representative sales:
