Kansas City Stock Yards. May l0.-All classes of cattle advanced 10 to l5 cents last week. after mild fluctuations. and the demand from all sources was Uf such nature as to give confidence to parties having cattle about ready to market. The run today is 5000 head, market steady to shade stronger at the close. although buyers tried to force a decline account of liberal run and lower reports from Chi cago. Offerings from the range territory today included hay fed steers at $5.80 to S6.45, Colorado cows $4.30 to $5.25. panhandle heifers $5.5O. None of the Lock- hart steers which are the official barometer of the market. are here today, last shipment of these steers at $6.60. and salesmen says they would bring as much today. Stockers and feeders from the range country have been scarce. market on them 10 to l5 higher to. day, some fair to good Colorado stockers today at $4.57 to $5.90, best feeders worth S5.85.
 Lambs furnish the sensation in the live stock trade now. each day recording new flights of the sky rocket market. Prices advanced 50 to 75 cents last week, and lambs are selling l5 higher today. with a big string of Beatty lambs from Colorado at S9.25. a price equaled only once before in the history of this market for yearling lambs. Spring lambs sold at S9.50 today, yearlings $7.75. wethers worth $6.75, ewes S6.25
 Statesmen predict still further ad- vances. provided consumers do not rebel and quit eating lamb chops. Texas muttons have been scarce, and are 40 to SO cents higher than ten days ago, some 80 pound weth- CTS today at $500 and some on the yearling order last week at $6.50, others of inferior quality down to $5.0). Fat goats bring $4.25 to $4.75, and goats for the country find ready sale at $3.25 to S3.75, The first consignment of the season from Arizona arrived today, spring lambs in this shipment at $9,50.
