run to-day makes the total very muci
larger than for any similar period since
as viii Be noted from the table ABOVE. The
ieceipts, for the two days are not so very
much different than for the corresponding
days of last year. While receipts yesterday
were so large and while the market was
late In opening, the number OF cattle car
ried over was very small, proving that the
steers, cows and heifers were 100 l5c
lower yesterday, with some sales looking
as much as &c lower than the close OF
last week. This was not bad, however, as
compared with other market points, Chi

slow all the morning, partly because there
was a good deal OF sorting up to be done
before the cattle were ready TO be shown.
Early reports from other selling points
were also rather discouraging and buyers
were inclined to go rather cautiously and
was well along toward midday before very
much business was done. The market
might best be summed up as slow 10 1Oc
lower than yesterday, or J0Q2oc lower in two
days.
The market on cow and heifers was in
about the sam ne Gonditi9n as oesI steers J snS
