CATTLE-There were only thirteen cars
means that there were not enough of any
one kind to make q showing or establish
quotations. For the week the receipts
show a slight falling off as compared with
last week and a year ago. What few cat
tie there were here this morning brought
prices that did not look very much diff
1erent from yesterday and most sellers
steady.
For the week everything shows more or
Tess decline. Heavy steers have suffered
Good light and handy weight steers, while
not showing so much decline as the heavy
grades, are quite a little lower.
Cow stuff has also come in for its share
OF grief, prices on the general run Of
grassers being decidedly lower, in addi-
ton TO being slow and dull every day.
Feeders have been in moderate supply
as much as they undoubtedly would had
the arrivals been larger, as the country de-
mand has been extremely dull. Light cat
tie especially have been poor sellers.
