An area OF low pressure extends from the
western Canadian provinces south over the
upper Missouri valley and eastern slope Of
the Rocky mountains. This depression is
accompanied by unsettled weather In the

the central valleys, probably cause showers

Tuesday. Except an area of low pressure
that Is moving off the extreme upper At
lanuc coast, the pressure is relatively high
over the eastern portion of the country and
generally clear weather prevails every
where east of the Mississippi river. While

from philadelphia, the weather is clear
throughout that vicinity this morning, with
temperature Of about So degrees. Tenn

CATTLE-Receipts of cattle were very
liberal this morning, but still not large
enough to be overly burdensome in view
of the fact that everything was cleaned
up last week and that the market closed
in a good, healthy condition, with killing
cattle, If anything, little higher. But
while conditions locally were all right, the
enormous run of cattle at Chicago and the
reported severe break in prices at that
point had a depressing effect, not only on
this market but on other western markets
AS a result the trade opened slow, with
buyers inclined to feel their way and await
later developments from other points be-
fore transacting very much business. Still
every one was out in the yards in good
season and the opening was by no means
bad, taking everything into consideration.
When buyers and sellers got down to
business the market on desirable kinds OF
beef cattle did not show any material
change as compared with last week. The

The market opened easy at a decline of

slve bear pressure inspired by the easy
cables talk OF less urgent trade demand
and good weather In the south. Reports
that the West Indian storm was again
heading for the belt and support from some
OF the big interests caused slight rallies, but
there was a lot OF cotton for sale and the
market ruled very nervous, with prices
during the middle Of the morning some
22d24 points net lower. Liverpool and the
south were sellers here and good many
private reports were received claiming 9
less active demand and freeT offerings OF
spots In the interior.

SHEEP-All OF the larger 1eedyards trib-
utary TO this market reported we'll filled
pens yesterday and liberal receipts were
expected today as a result. Right around
4g, 900 head were posted, but less than one
half Of this number arrived before IL
o'clock and the general market was very
late in getting started.
The big end OF the actual supply con-
sisted Of feeders, as usual, but buyers for
this class OF stock were none too plentiful.
Late passenger. trains were due 20 bring
in a number o. buyers, SO that scant at
tendance early cannot be construed as an
indication Of smaller volume Of demand.
Early sales OF feeder stock were little
different from those at last weeks close,
indicating a generally steady market o.
good classes, with common and Inferior
grades still on a "catch-as-catch-can'
basis.
Inquiry for good fat stock was active
from the opening and while the amount OF
business transacted was necessarily limited
