CATTLE-As usual on a Saturday there
was little OF any consequence on sale,
either fresh or stale, and values on all
grades were unchanged. For the week re-
ceipts foot up about 22,OOO head or some
/ 800 head more than last week and 1900
head more than for the corresponding week
last year. In point Of quality the OFFER
ings have been very desirable most OF the
time lately and buyers have had very little
to complain OF on this score. Prices have
been more or less uneven throughout the
week and at the close are from lOc to 25c
lower than a week ago. Most or the de-
cline has been on the plain, heavy and
unfinished cattle as all classes of buyers
have been discriminating against this class
OF stock while the desirable, light and
handy weight grades have been VA good re-
quest right along and are not selling much
lower than a week ago.
Notwithstanding the very liberal receipts
for the week the proportion OF COWS aId
heifers has been comparatively email
throughout and with a vigorous demand
from both local packers and outside buyers
the market has been In very satisfactory
shape from start 10 finish. The more de-
