KANSAS CRY, March 26, 1905
The run of cattle this week was
light Monday and Tuesday, on
which days sales were 20 to 80
cents above the low time of last
week. On Wednesday there was a
larger run, and prices declined
slightly, but this loss has been re-
gained last two days, and the week
is closing firm, and Is to Is cents
above close of last week. Prospects
look good for the market next
week, as the run will hardly ex-
coed the supply of this week, and
the demand has shown itself strong
enough to enable statesmen to have
the better of the argument this
week. The best grades of steers
got most support this week, and
numerous sales of steers from
Native territory were at $640 to
$3.50. The top for the week was
$3.50, and was paid for steers fat
tened in Kansas but purchased as
feeders in Eastern Colorado, near
Hugo. They weighed 1877 pounds
when sold. Offerings direct from
the West have been limited this
week, fat steers being only fairly

at $7.15 to 1856, ewes at 1925 to
