The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1908-09-26
Thursdays Live Stock
Market and Sales at
Detroit Yards

All grades Of butchers cattle were
dull and l5 TO % cents lower in the
Detroit market on Thursday than they
were last week. Detroit meat dealers
are complaining OF a marked railing
OF in the demand for all kinds OF
fresh meat. and as d result the big
coolers OF the city are full OF beef for
which there Is no immediate outlet.
To add To the dullness on Thursday
OF this week. nearly all of the early
morning offerings we're stale cattle
which had come to hand OH Wednes-
day. but could not be sold. The back
bone OF the cattle trade Is broken and
all grades of common cattle will be
dull and slow until after the holidays.
Mich cows and calves are unchanged:
a few choice calves brought IS. so
per cwt.
The market was over-stocked with
sheep and lambs, and prices were un-
evenly from 20 10 40 cents lower. with
a large amount OF common stock on
offer that was almost unstable. A
few choice lambs brought s5.25, but
for the most part S. was high. Com.
mon lambs sold as low as s. per cwt-
| The outlook favors lower prices.
Another week of large hog receipts
OF poor average quality and one Of the
longest markets mat Michigan drof.
ers ever had to deal with. On Wed
nesday hogs sold for top price OF
$3.50 in the Detroit market, while
$3.50 was high In Chicago. On Thurs
| day, as usual since the three-day mar
ket started, prices were 10 to %
cents lower than on the preceding
day A top Of $3.50 was made on
Thursday. Pigs sold for $3.50 to
3475: light workers.. sc TO $6-25. Out.
look easy.
