HOGS-There was a slow, Indifferent and
very unsatisfactory trade in the hog divi-
sion today. Prices were generally b0lGr
lower than yesterday, which means that
the hogs sold largely at s6.OOa6.l 10, as
against 6l0dSl yesterday. Buyers seemed
TO be very bearish in their views and their
orders were not sufficiently urgent to
make them active bidders. Still the hogs
in fair season.
Iooays decline carries the market to the
IoRest point touched since July g.

Fair and Continued Warm for
Wednesday, Says He.

MAHA, July =, lSJc,
Light local showers were scattered over
the central valleys during Monday. and
moderately heavy rains were general In
the eastern and southern states. The show
ers were quite general throughout the up
per portion OF the Missouri valley. but
we're very light and scattered In the south
ern portion. The cool wave, noted In the
northwest Monday morning, has apparently
dissipated, and conditions are favorabls
for fair and continued warm in this vi
cinity tonight and Wednesday.
