THE MARKETS.

DetTOlt-IHe
specially noteworthy for heavy rui.
of sheep and lambs and a moderate run
in other departments. In the cattle
yards the trade was active and choice
handy butchers grades were tribe
higher. Shipping cattle and bulls
brought steady prices. There was an
active demand for stockers and feeders
and they brought full steady prices
with last week. Common COW stuff con-
tinues dull and hard to sell. Good
grades of mich cows sold strong to 50
per head higher, $55 being paid for
good mes. Common grades are dull and
no higher.
Sheep-The sheep and lamb trade
opened with last weeks prices being
paid, but when it became apparent that
the run would be large prices took
slump and early in the day were from
soc to 75c lower than at the opening.
At the close it was hard to get 81 for
the very best. Buck lambs are selling
low.
Hogs-The hog trade was very unsat-
isfactory to the shipper Packers were
very bearish and would not pay over
$6.15 for anything. One dealer bought
a few at $500, and another paid 1925 "a
6.35 for what he could use. The gen
eral market was from Csc to soc lower
than last week and very dull.
