Large speculative activity centered in the

Cows and heifers seemed to be in pretty
fair demand and they sold at about
steady prices, there being very little
change in any direction.
The worst texture OF the trade was the
decentralization prevailing in the stocker
weather and liberal receipts, together with
the intervening holiday, all combined to
render the demand Tar from active, even
at prices that were very much lower than
prevailed last week. 1t would be safe to
