CAIIBE-Although the receipts yester-
day were late In arriving, the yards We're
pretty well cleaned up before the close,
very little stock being carried over. The
fresh receipts this morning as usual on
Saturday were extremely light in conse-
quence of which there was not enough of
anything on sale today to be worth quoting
Heavy receipts have been a characteristic
of this weeks cattle trade. The total ar
rivals without exception are the heaviest
for any week so far this year. AS will be
noted from the table of receipts published
at the head of this column, there was a
large gain over the previous week and
still larger gain over the corresponding
Another feature Of the weeks trade is
the large number OF beef steers coming
forward to market. While there are no
figures from which to make comparisons
those who have been in the trade for many
years claim that they cannot recall 4 season
when the receipts were so largely made up
of fair to good beef steers during the month
of March as at the present time, In spite
of this very large run the cattle market
this week has been In fair condition, al
though there has been a lower tendency to
values. A right choice bunch of prime
beeves would probably sell very nearly az
high as last week. Good handy-weight
cattle are probably 10d15c lower for the
week, while rough heavy beeves have de-
clined l5d25c
large receipts, have been in moue4ate sup
ply and there has been a very good buying
demand on the part of local packers. The
market on the better grades has been well
maintained. Anything on the fair TO good
order can safely be quoted fully as high
as last week Common Gamers and cutters
on the other hand. have been inclined to
drag and gradually eased of as the week
advanced. This kind is as low as it has
been any time this winter
stockers aud feeders sold at very strong
prices during the first half of the week,
but toward the close-that is. on Thursday,
the receipts began increasing quite rapidly,
the prevailing high prices having appar-
entity induced free shipments. At the same
time with the growth of the receipts the
country demand was somewhat disappoint-
ing, so that under these two influences
working in opposite directions the market
eased or and at the close of the week is
generally 10ql5c lower.
