Increased Activity Displayed in
That Market, the Top Price
Being $40
HOGS ARE gsLleHrLY HIGHER
This Advance Was Due to Buying on
the Part of Packers, There Being
No Noticeable Improvement in the
Shipping Demand-sheep Weak, and
Trade Slow.

Chicago, Oct. 9.-Cattle-On light
played, and prices Were steady; the
top price was $T.40.
There has been no such broadening
of the avenues of demand this week
as to warrant the liberal receipts that
have been reported thus far this week.
Nor is there amy great promise for the
coming week that should encourage
heavy shipment marketward the COM
ing week. Receipts, including the esti-
mate for today stand about 1880.
against 54,797 for the same time last
week. This is far under the receipts for
the corresponding period in 1907, when
. LAP cattle Were received, but the
conditions in the trade would never
permit of such q run without the mar
ket breaking abruptly. There has been
a better movement to the shipping
trade this week than there was last
week, and this is tho only point where
the market lends any encouragement
to sellers.
Hogs.
Hogs Were active and slightly high
er. on buying by packers. There was
no noticeable Improvement i'm shipping
demand
Already the influence of new corn
is in evidence. 1t is being fed to hogs
everywhere, with the object of getting
a hurry-up finish and less green stuff
may he expected right along. Packers
are endeavoring to depress the hog
values and this has had a marked eff
feet on the speculative market and
many holders have sold out their long
lines. Specialists are Of the opinion
now that present values for product
have discounted any further break in
hog prices for the present at least.
Sheep
Sheep were weak, notwithstanding
that receipts were considerably less
thar yesterday. Trade was slow.
Sheep are holding steady by virtue
of scarcity. Montana appears to have
suspended shipping, and the low
prices at which sheep have been SELL
ing will undoubtedly hold a lot of them
back on the range to be re-wintered.
Shipping trade has fallen off this week,
owing to liberal receipts of killing
lambs at eastern markets and few
feeders here. The feeder movement
this week will be but 40 per cent
of the corresponding week last year
when the western marketward move
ment was at flood tide.
