disposition was to wait for Wednes-
days run. Shippers were not in the
market at all and big local buyers re-
fused to go out. No choice steers
were offered and only few that were
good.
Stuckers and feeders were taken on
steady basis. The demand was very
slim from the country and the local
buyers were pretty well loaded up.
There was nothing choice offered.
Choice lambs sold steady, but were
10@15c lower. BUYERS want lambs
and seem to have no outlet for. the
