The market for common and med

much cheaper on the hooks than

heavy steers is about as United as was
ever known at this season OF the year,
largely owing TO the wretched condi-
ton of the kosher meat trade in the
east. The writer never saw medium
little cattle sell higher than they did
last week in the Detroit yards Sev-
cra bands OF cattle, ayeragins under
500 brought about $3.50 which is a
lew record for the local market The
peculiar strength of the medium cat

from the fact that feeders are compel

spread between prime steers and the
tidy kind was hardly ever so narrow
