THE FOREIGN CATTLE TRADE.
Beef cattle sold in the British market
to a reduced demand and quotations were
lower by about lac. per pound. Few cat
tie from the West were received. but sup
plies of Canadian stock were more nu-
nervous Western ranch cattle suitable
for the export trade are costing shippers
very high and practically cut off all
profits: and although the Canadian stock
can be bought for lower prices. the cat
tie are of more inferior quality and 40
not sell as readily on the foreign mar
kets.
Late cables from Liverpool and London
quote live cattle steady at the decline
selling at 12@14 1-2c. per pound. dressed
weight and refrigerator beef 1-2c. lower
at 10610 1-2c per pound.
During the past week no steamer sailed
from Boston carrying cattle supplies, it
being the first week In years that no cat
tie have been shipped from Boston en-
cepting when held back by quarantine
regulations. as In the late foot and mouth
disease Three steamers are scheduled
for the current week. but supplies will be
light and 1t is doubtful il all three carry
beef supplies.
