Little Demand in Hog Market for

Mixed, Grassy sorts-sheep Steady.

Chicago, June 1s.-The few steers on
prices, altho the supply was so meag-e
that to quote values any higher was
almost an impossibility. Receipts were
mostly Texans, to packers direct.
Butcher stuff was steady, offerings
were small, and were bought up early.
Four days total stands at $4,000, che
lightest for this period thus far in the
year, and yeet the nominal prices today
were 10@25 cents lower than last week $
closing, and bulk of sales showed 10000
cents decline. Hardest selling kinds
have been the grassy. short-fed and
demand from the east has reduced
values for even the choice to prime
heavy steers 10@15 cents under last
weeks level.
Yearling steers of good to choice
quality have, on the other hand, neid
about at last weeks prices. Supply of
the good yearlings has not been above
demands and these have been shown
best favor both by local and eastern
buyers.
The small demands this week have
been a keen disappointment to sellers.
From the start there were light receipts
and expectancy was for higher prices.
but the demands have been curbed to
a volume which really could have been
filed from even smaller supplies than
were available, and killers have thus
had little difficulty in continuing their
bear campaign in the market.
Another week may bring forth a
changed situation in the trade. Selling
choice quality steers at present levels
While hogs are landing at sky-high
prices, isn't likely to induce holders
to ship freely another week. and the
trade is hopeful of a reduced volume
/ of marketing, that the demand may
grow a little hungrer than at present, In
which event recovery of late declines
will be in order.
With hog prices practically highes,
