This morning receipts consisted very
largely of lambs, in fact there has been a
surplus of lambs all the week. The ten
some sales did not show very much change,
a good many were l0Ql5c lower than yes
terday. This was true not only OF lambs,
but of sheep as well. and would apply to
both killers and feeders. This means that
lambs are pretty close to 5c lower than
last week and hat old sheep are around
4940c lower h a last week, While
more, II as much, as has taken
place at eastern markets. The trade here
continues in a good healthy condition In
spite of the fact that the run Is so large

changing hands about as fast as they
could be shaped up and made ready for
sale. The market yesterday did not close
throughout the day. This morning buyers

today compared with the heavy runs on
previous days this week. Still the total for
the week foots up 3 $50 head, being larger
than any previous week since the beginning

Tor the corresponding week of last year.
The market has been in very satisfactory

There was q very fair demand FOR beef
steers and the market on all desirable kinds

Bullish sentiment was rampant in the

ing orders over night. This buying was
chiefly based on the flour situation at

estimate made by a French trade journal
on the total yield of wheat in France,
and which indicated that it might be
necessary for that country to import from

another buIlish factor, Export houses here
claimed that early bids for wheat for ex-
ports were numerous, but that the subse-
quent advance carried the market out OF
the export zone. Cash wheat at the sam
pie tables were In fair demand ana the
premiums were the same as yesterday, at
l cent over September for No. 2 red and
the September option Ia re over No. 3

late in the day, when a slight reaction
occurred on profit taking. A 2 cent ad-
