THE HORSE TRAFFIC..
The market was strong with very gooo
sales reported on the fresh heavy draft
ers, also for rugged acclmated horses in
good weight and condition and straight
from service. Commercial horses of
medium weight were less active, with
values a little lower for the general run
of horses of this class. The demand from
the coal and express companies was
greatly diminished. Chunks found al
ready outlet to the lumber camps at even
values. Harness classes were quiet, with
a slow demand and with lower prices on
all such hcrses of medium quality. Cheap
seconds found no market and sold at
exceptionally low figures. Fjrst-class
drivers continue scarce. and still COM
mand fancy prices. as do the best sad ,
die horses. J
Fi"st-class, heavy draft horses. 100 to
1900 lbs strong at s3O0645O medium weight
