stockyard Notes.

The cow market is still going down.
Buyers are filling up as much as they
can with the rangers and chopping
down the native cows and heifers as
fast as possible. In the past two weeks
they have taken off 50@75 cents on the
medium to good cows that show a
grass finish. The best COWS have not
shown so much change, but the mar
ket is lower and prospects are not flat
tering. Rangers are not coming free
ly as yet, but a good many are in
sight and COW buyers are discounting
the future as much as they can. Grassy
steers have been very hard to sell
lately and many went yesterday az
s5.00@5.50 which looked much lower
than last week.
Around $4,000 sheep and lambs were
marketed at Louisville last week. and
all records for big receipts were broken.
Over onehalf of them were received
at Chicago by packers direct.
The horse industry has increased
from 1857 ,524 horses IN 1900 to co.
$4,000 horses in 1909. The average
price of horses IN 1900 was $44.61 and
in 1909, 1864. In nine years the horses
in the United States show an increase
of 7,1o2.476 head. or an annual in
crease Of 125 per cent in their average
valuation during the same period.

Probable Cut on Leather.

No decision has been reached as to
the extent of the reduction to be made
on leather and boots and shoes, but 1t
is likely the duty on the former will
be decreased on various kinds from IS
to per cent, while that on boots and
shoes will not be more than 10 per
cent. There also will be proportionate
reductions on all other grades Of
leather, Including harness.
AS to free coal, the president was
told it was almost an impossibility to
bring this about. The coal miners or
CARNATIONS now are active In favor
of straight duty.
1t was reported in the afternoon that
in response to the new facts submitted
for his consideration, the president had
indicated his willingness to accept a
duty Of 40 cents a ton on bituminous
and Is cents ton on slack coal, with
out reciprocity. The rate Of 40 cents is
that which prevailed when the Wilson
law was in force.
