market is breaking so rapidly. the trade
was entirely lacking in life and snap,
but still the hogs kept selling and the most
of them changed hands i'm decent season.
A good many of the hogs sold at $5.55a5.65,
whereas yesterday $5.75u5.S5 bought a very
large proportion OF the receipts. Shippers
will understand that the downward move
ment in values is general, all markets be-
