FAIR HORSE TRADE.
RECEIPTS Open Lighter and the Tone Of
Demand Shows Inprouemen$

Chicago. Oct. 17-Receipts declined
sharply at the weeks opening, 1872 ar
rivals being reported against 1.402 the
previous Monday. Special efforts We're
made the past two weeks to fill a gov
eminent contract for cavalry mounts,
the order expiring on the 18th inst.
which accounts largely for the decline.
The run of 1872 horses Monday COM
pares favorably with the 100 reported
the corresponding period last year and
indicates that the volume of trade is
steady to improving. Many western
operators are in the market with or
ders principally for drafters and heavy
business classes, which clear on about
a steady basis, a few sales of choice
lots showing slight Improvement.
The general quality of the heavy COM
mercial receipts is below the average
of last week, which dulls the tone Of
competition. Smooth heavy drafters
are free sellers at s17o@215, with extra
weight and quality classes clearing at
1925 and upward. Expressers are firm
at s130@170 and upward for fancy lots.
Steady demand for feeders, loggers,
drivers and wagon classes move the
offerings without concessions at the
