Demand for All Glasses.
Chicago, March General trade for
the week displays better tone under
lighter receipts and broader demand
from outside quarters. The corps of
eastern buyers is larger than a week
ago and the speculative features of
trade are less prominent, as dealers
are buying on direct orders as we'll as
on indirect demand. The depression
of big commercial drafters, which has
been so pronounced for two months,
commenced to give way under the
competition of early spring orders, and
the bulk Of the weeks offerings found
broader outlet at a shade stronger
prices. Many choice finished lots
We're closed out on eastern account Of

the medium to good arrivals We're

$4,000 IN CASH FOR HORSES.
When everything is settled, find I
paid out few dollars over 100000 in
cash for horses at our sale last Friday.
This was by far the largest sale we
have ever held, something over 800
horses being listed. Five carloads
came in on one train over the Mil
waukee. Every road entering Ottum-
wa brought us horses, varying from
one to five cars. We had a number OF
new buyers again. Among them were
York; William Plass, Linlithgo, N. Y;
Sam Zimmerman Minneapolis. Mimi;
soukup, Milwaukee; Fred Barrett
Chicago; F. NJ. Hanley, Rensselaer,,
Indiana; Gilroy, K. G. Kelly, st.
Louis, and dozen local shippers from
over Iowa and Illinois. Loads We're
cago, 3 to New York, 1 to Milwaukee
to Minneapolis. to st. Louis and
parts Of loads shipped to various
eastern and southern markets. We also
had an unusual number of private
parties here buying one, two or three
loads for their own use, or for local
trade. This latter demand may be ex-
pected to be good through the months
Of March and April.
! think we may now safely say that
we have established permanent
horse market here in Ottumwa, and
we attribute no small proportion of the
surprising success of this sale to the
strong support we have had among
our friends, the farmers and horse
men of Southeastern Iowa. OF course
we have the "kickers,' the back
biters' to contend with; the class OF
fellows you find in every community
who always do all they can to hold
down some home enterprise. the mer
who never accomplish any good for q
community themselves, and are sore
towards anybody that does. But with
the support of the more liberal mind
ed and public spirited citizens we ex-
pect to go right on doing business al
the same old stand. In the early par
CT January I stated in this space tina
we would sell $4,000 worth of horse!

now say that our next sale on Marcel

should be fully as good, If not a litt!
better. but we can't help being shor
