LETTER TO DATE
Receipts Today Were 801 Cars in All
1924 Cattle, 1860 Hogs, 3d.
e65 Sheep and 500 Horses.

CelptS. Right around b3,IlO mead
were received, breaking all single day
records, including the enormous run
of $1,000 head on the 9Th of this
month. During the past five weeks
weekly receipts average but $4,000
head, or, in other words, 66O,091 head
in all. Today's supply swells this
figure to 100000 head, record which
speaks for itself.
The total number of cars of all
kinds of stock received today was sol,
which is also new record for this
point. Previous to this the largest
run was on August 81, this year,
when a total of no cars arrived.
Breaking records seems to be habit
at South Omaha.
This week opens out with liberal
run of cattle, some 524 carloads being
received up to noon.

Beef Steers-There were less than
loads OF corn fed cattle on sale this
morning and the market was quotably
fully steady as far as it went. Dressed
beef men all had good orders to fill,
and there was a good outlet for any
thing at all useful in this line. On
the other hand, the common short fed
and half fat stuff suffered from COM
petition with the western rangers and
was slow sale although quotably not
far from steady.

Cows and Mixed Stock-There was
an unusually liberal proportion of
COWS and heifers on the market this
morning, which caused rather slow
trade. There was good demand from
all sources for practically all grades,
but the liberal supply enabled buyers
their purchases than they have been
of late, and while good to choice stock
as we'll as the canning grades went
at prices that compared very favor
ably with last Friday, the fair to medi-
UNI grades were dull and sold slowly
at more or less shaded figures. Steady
to shade easier would about cover
the situation. Veal calves were in
active demand at firm prices, and the
same was true as to bulls, stays, etc.

Stockers and Feeders-The liberal
output last week cleaned up the sup
ply in yard traders hands reasonably
well last week so that they were all
out in good season after fresh sup
plies. Anything that had quality met
with broad demand and tOlerably
ready sale at fully steady figures.
Neither country buyers nor yard trad
ers were looking for weight, it was
quality that they were after and the
market was rather firm for anything
of this kind. On the other hand there
was a disposition to shade prices on
the ordinary run of stock and feeding
steers, and the trade up to noon was
rather draggy for anything not up to
the standard.
Western Rangers.-Dressed beef
men were out after the decent beef
cattle, and generally paid right
around steady prices for anything that
suited them. The same was true as
to the better grades of stockers and
feeders. On the general run of steer
stuff the trade was more or less drag
gy right from the start, with every
indication that it would take more or
less shading of prices to effect any
thing like clearance. Cows and
heifers were in unusually liberal sup
ply and while the good to choice grade
as we'll as the common and canning
grades sold about as we'll as at the
close Of last week.
Hogs-The supply of hogs was very
light this morning, there being about
so cars reported in up to noon. The
demand was reasonably active and the
prices a little higher from the open
ing. Everything sold in good season
at strong to &c higher figures than
Saturdays bulk. Extreme heavies
moved around S.35 with good heavies
around $40 to $50. Bacon hogs were
lacking, the best medium weights on
sale topping at $50, 1Oc lower than
Saturdays top.
