CATTLE-There were no cattle here to-
day TO make a market and none were ex-
pected. This in fact was the second day
his, week that receipts were too light TO
for the week show falling off of over
1000 head as compared with last week and
CO. Ree& e o st Se or
month to date there has been decrease
OF about 1000 head as compared with last
year. 1t will be noted from these COM
parsons that the receipts of cattle have
been running very light at this point.
The supply of beef cattle this week has
cattle has been most too large for the
good Of the market az PAGERS hs aye not
with them. The result was that corn-fed
cattle, while they showed some strength
eased off FIFE later on nv" and at the close Of
the week are no higher than they were
one week ago. More than that the trade
seeming to buy the cattle under protest.
Grass beef on the other hand showed
some little Improvement and desirable
kinds of range steers can safely be quoted
as 10d15c higher for the week.
Cows and heifers We're not very plentiful
at any time during the week whereas
Under the influence of the light receipts
and good demand prices steadily frmed
up and at the close of the week arN l5sT25c
higher than one week ago. For two weeks
in succession the tendency of the cow
market has been almost steadily upward,
the advance last week having been about
the same as for this week. That means
that the COW market is now 25d60c higher
than It was the low time two weeks ago.
The stocker and feeder trade has been
rather disappointing this week. Early in
the week there was a moderate run, and,
as spectators and yard traders were all
sold out, they were quite eager buyers.
with the result that the market advanced
1Od15c. The country, however, did not APP
pear TO be in the mood TO pay any better
prices and country buying was very light
throughout the week so that spectators
cattle today and yesterday at somewhat
easier prices.
HOGS-Receipts of hogs today were light
even for a Saturday, less than 100 cars being
reported in. The reaction which set In
Thursday: and was continued, yesterday,
quotably sc higher this morning. AS has
been the case on so many days of late
the trade was very uneven, some hogs
showed even more than &C advance. Thus
heavy packing hogs were not very much
higher while the top was l21sc higher,
sS| being paid for a fancy load OF light
at the advance so that the most of the
hogs In sight changed hands before 10
O'Clock in the evening.
During the first half Of the week the
downward movement of values which had
been underway for two weeks back was
continued. The low point of the week,
and for the matter OF the month TO date,
average OF all the hogs sold was S5.ss.
During the last three days OF the week
prices tended steadily upward so that all
the loss was recovered and a little more
market 6QlOc higher than Il was one week
ago. In fact the hogs sold at the close OF
the week about where they sold on Fri
day OF last week.

PUBLISHED EVERY WEDNESDAY,

The manner iu which the City Coun- Gil has finally settled the long drawn out controversy over the widening of D street, will, we believe, be satis- factory to most, if not all, of the citizens and tax payers. Many who had opposed the plan to make the street include the full width of the lot purchased of Mrs. Chisholm, were led to change their views when they under stood the nature of the offer made by the owners of abuttiug property. The new street will be more than fifty feet wide it is true. At the same time it will straighten out the crooks and will conform to the original plat of the city. Another point in favor of the wide street, which we are sure our citizens will appreciate more and more as the years go by, is the inestimable aid which this large open space will afford in case of a serious fire on Front street, giving Aremen a chance to stop a fire coming from either direction. And then, narrow streets looks stingy. There is something grand about wide liberal thoroughfare. There's nothing too good for Douglas.
