Delay In Marketing Made EARLY
Demand Tame, and Sales
Were Few
DECLINE ON BULK OF HOGS
Regulars and scaIpers Were Not Dis
posed to Take Hold FreeIy-Heavy
Packing Grades Looked Ten Lower
Sheep Market Similar to tho Other
Two, Early Trade Being Drassy.

Chicago, Oct. 2i.-Cattle-The rur
was late in arriving, only half of the
supply being in the yards at 10 o'clock
This delay in mark eting made the early
demand tame and sales were few. From
the indifference OF buyers it appeared
that the market would be 1905 cents
lower
The $5.OO@6.O0 kinds are the ones
which have been hit the hardest of late
but the fact that even the choice ones
landing close up to $500 have also had
to go lower should give the country
shippers pretty good idea of the bear
ish campaign now being waged by the
slaughterers. This decidedly weak de-
mand for natives in face of the strong
market for western rangers is bringing
the prices for the two classes pretty
close together. Prime rangers sold
Monday and again. Tuesday at 1925 and
this price for cattle which never had
corn feed indicates the close compete
ton the westerns are giving fat ma
tives these days.
The sampantly bullish market of
two weeks ago stirred up too great
shipping. enthusiasm in the corn belt
and in their desire to iquidate hold
ings at the high prices the feeders
have swamped the market badly II
forcing in run of nearly $4,000 last
week, followed by further big marker
ing again this week, the slaughterers
have been asked to take too many cat
tie and the big decline in prices is
merely natural sequence of badly
overstocked market.
Hogs.
With only third of the estimated
run of $4,000 in the yards at 10 o'clock,
regulars and scalpers were not dispos-
ed to take hold freely. Sales made
early indicated q full sc decline on the
bulk of hogs, while heavy packing
grades looked ten cents lower.
Sheep.
Conditions in this market with re-
gard to marketing, were similar to
cattle and hogs. and the early trade
was draggy. Indications were that the
lamb trade would be weak, while sheep
would sell about steady.
