CATTLE--Receipts of cattle this morning
were quite liberal for Frlcay, but as is
very apt to be the case toward the last Of
the week the trade was not overly active.
In fact there was reaction in Nthe market
on beef steers, the same as took place on
Friday of last week. That there should be
a reaction was not at all surprising con-
sidering that the market this week had ad-
vanced right around SOC on good fat steers.
The market opened very slow and dull
on beef steers and continued so throughout
the session. AS a whole the trade might
be summed up as slow at a decline of 100
15c as compared with yesterday.
Possibly some of the strictly good to
choice cows may have sold close to steady,
but the general market was slow to dime
lower.
Comparatively few stockers and feeders
were on sale today but there was a very
fair feeling on the market as regards the
better grades and the few offered COM
manded about steady prices
