CATTLE-Receipts Of cattle were quite
liberal for the middle Of the week at this
point, with very fair showing at ether
markets as well The bulk Of the receipts
consisted Of corn-fed steers, there being
among the offerings & good many very
desirable killers.
The weakness in the market for beef
steers which developed yesterday was con-
tinued today, the market being both slow
and lower. Buyers were inclined TO hold
back and wait developments, while sales
men were not disposed TO take off anything
in the price without a struggle. Thus the
forenoon was well advanced before very
much trading was done. AS 70 prices the
market was safely 1Oal5c lower than
Monday.
Cows and heisers were in very fair de-
Inand and. as the supply was by no means
burdensome, the market was quite active,
everything changing hands in very good
season. Choice yearling heifers are very
much sought after and are selling al very
high prices.
The supply Of feeders was small and the
market without any noticeable change.
Light stock cattle, on the other hand, were
very duh, holders Of such finding il no
easy matter TO move them.

SHEEP-Receipts were light this morn
ing. but they were plenty heavy enough
considering the demand, which was far
from urgent. Buyers picked out such stuff
as pleased them, buying the good handy
weight lambs al fully steady prices. Thus
lambs that sold at S6.65 on Monday brought
the same price today. Most Of the receipts
consisted Of heavy lambs for which the
demand was very light, especially 80 at
prevailing prices. Advices from Chicago
as well as from southern markets all indi-
Gated that prices at this point are higher
In proportion than other markets. Hence
IL was not surprising that buyers this
morning were backward about taking hold
freely. At the same time packers have
shipped In direct cheaper southern lambs
which had reduced to some extent the local
demand. Taking all in all Il was not sur
prising that the ira de was dull throughout,
but II was no duller than is 10 be expected
considering that local prices are right close
UP to Chicago.
