| Chicago, May 19.-Hogs were I'M
proved in price today, packers taxing
! the bulk of offerings The top was
placed at 1915 while packers were gen.
orally pegged around 1865.
The half-week supply shows consld-
cradle increase compared with last
week a all points, but killers have oeep

Mondays 1920 cent decline has peen
wiped out Tuesdays supply was es-
timated at 21,O0o but the count is ex-
pected 10 show more. The state stock
was only 800. as a good clearance Is
being effected daily under present con-
dtions. The five principal western
markets had around $4,000 as against
50 900 last week and $4,000 a year ago
the half-weel run at these points be-
ing approximately $4,000 against 49,
600 last week and 2l5000 year ago
Combined receipts at eleven points
the first of this week $4,000, or $4,000
more than a week ago and $4,000 less
than a year ago. Chicago alone re-
ceived $4,000 the first half of this week,
or 10000 more than week ago ana
II, 400 less than a year ago.
Cattle.
Steers We're steady to strong. The
best price was sS.25. Butcher cattle
We're SLOW and uneven.
For the past week the light cattle
under 81 have been hammered very
hard and show a reduction of % cents
from week ago The appearance of
good many Texas cattle at the outside
markets has apparently affected the
demand for this class of steers here,
oaf
the reduced rates Yesterday about all
of the cattle below 81 were very hard
to sell and it was hard to get buyer
who was willing to make a bid. Pre-
dictions are that these cattle will sell
lower later on when the Texans
are more in evidence and the grass ma
tives become numerous.
Sheep.
Lambs We're ) cents lower on best
dry fed animals, and 10 to Is cents
down on in-between- quality stuff.
The half-week run is 10000 more
than last week, and a year ago, while
May receipts TO date are about $4,000
more than last year. these figures dis
crediting the shortage theories.
If they had been anywhere near right
the counter would have been bare at
this juncture, instead of which buyers
are having easy picking. There was a
liberal run at the principal western
markets yesterday, the half-week sup
ply at these points being about 100000,
against $1,000 last week and $1,000 a
year ago. These figures furnish at
least partial explanation of the recent
decline in prices, especially SO far as
sheep are concerned.
The 9-cent lamb was restored to cir
culation, two loads being put over at
even money and one at 1905. This
means that high dressing Colorados are
in class by themselves.
