Kansas City Market Report.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Feb,
ruary 2. 1909.
The run of $4,000 cattle here
today is sufh cient to put the stu
alton back into the hands of the
buyers. The uneven advance Sc
cured yesterday on the strength
of small receipts at all points
could not be held today in the
face of the exceeding Indifference
of buyers. Killers claim their
coolers are well stocked, with a
rather narrow outlet for the beef
on account of soft weather and
the high retail prices. Beef steers
are higher now than in any re-
cent year at this time, and it is
impossible for the packers to
stimulate the consumptive de-
mand through the medium of
lower prices without losing mon
ey. Reports from Chicago indi-
cate a very low ebb in the state
of trade there, and if the predic-
tiOns of a big run at that point
tomorrow are fulfilled, big
break may be expected. A string
of branded steers from Wabaun-
see County, Kansas, sold today
at So. 35, similar to steers from
same shipper yesterday at S6-45,
and middle of last week at S. 40.
Other steers sold up to Sc so to-
day, but the general market on
steers is 10 to 20 lower, bulk at
So to 1928. Cows are steady
to a shade lower today, tops a.
round $500, top heifers S5.75,
bulk of she stuff 1925 to ST. IS,
bulls $500 to S4.75, calves So. so
to $3.50 Stockers and feeders
continue in good demand, prices
steady, stockers at $500 to 1925,
feeders "a. so to 1913.
Hogs touched high point of the
year to date yesterday. but the
market is off 10 to Is cen is today,
heavy hogs at Sc. 80 to Sc. As, me-
dunn weights S. to S.. 40, weights
below 200 lbs at $50 to Sc. 25,
pigs 81. so to $3.50 Provisions
have been manipulated by specu-
lators lately, but are lower this
week on account of heavy selling,
which is reflected in the hog
market today. Receipts are not
excessive this week, only 1900
here today. Total hog receipts
at the five big markets in January
we're 25 per cent short of same
month last year, whereas, the
market is 35 per cent, or around
$500 per cwt higher than at this
time last year. Average weight
of hogs here in January was 2O2
lbs, December 1919 lbs, January
last year PIG lbs.
Buyers had urgent orders for
lambs yesterday, and prices were
bulged up Is to 25 sents. but the
feeling is weaker today, and sell
ers were glad to cede back Is
cents of the advance secured yes
terday, in order to make lambs
move more freely. Sheep and
yearlings are steady today, total
run 10, 900 head. The Romssee
lambs brought S755 today, a.
gainst a top of $40 for Kansas

score of to on the Bovard field. 1t
was fast game throughout, the u. S.
c. sluggers starting in early to pound
the sphere. In the second, third and
fourth innings two runs were brought
in, while one III the fifth and one in the
eighth were chalked up for the college
boys. The tooth pullers through errors
scored two runs in the eighth and one
in the last of the ninth inning.

batters for the winners, each sending
the sphere out for a two-base hit Bal

losers, famed two, and twelve hits
were made off his delivery, while Hall

Wirsching made a sensational catch of
a grounder one-handed. which brought
the spectators to their feet. Burek was
