SHEEP-There were no fresh receipts OF
sheep today and there was very little to pe
this week in addition to what has already
been printed in these columns. The re-
previous week and over the corresponding
week of yeSr ago AT the same time that
mnrketings have been heavy the warm and
unreasonable weather prevailing over prac-
tically the whole country has caused
very heavy reduction in the consumption
Of mutton. Packers all report their coolers
at all points full of meats that are going
into consumption very slowly compared TO
what might be expected during normal
year. This condition has been reflected In
the sheep and lamb markets, with the result
that general decline In values has taken
place at all points This market has SUI
fered no worse than others and prices are
relatively as high here as at any other
point on the map. However 1t mas not
been either here or at any other mar ket
point much matter OF price as 1t has
of wanting the sheep at any price. Pack
ers, 50 far as can be observed, have not
market. but have simply refrained from
buying because of not having use for the
stuff arriving. This of itself has caused the
decline. The loss in values locally amounts
to about lOdl25c the most of II being on the
common to medium kinds. The demand
seems to be limited very largely to choice
handy-weight sheep and lambs. Big heavy
sheep. even If fat, have been very slow
sellers.
Local sheep men do not appear to have
lost confidence in the future Of the market,
but are still of the opinion that cold snappy

trade and strengthen values.

NEW YORK. Jan. 27.-Anxiety over the

busy with the growing involvement of this
speculation, owing to rumored unloading

hands of the new party to the movement. II

The bank statement was Disappointing,
