FOREIGN CATTLE TRADE.
The London market for cattle declin-
ed during the past week, and the de-
manG was dull. Quotations We're l"W
lic. dressed weight sinking the offal
while at Liverpool cattle were quoted
at 91a@1O1ac, in addition to the Oral.
Exports have been light from all ports
during the week, and shippers mere
find it very difficult to do business
with England at profit. There We're
no shipments of dressed beef from
Boston last week, and the export trade
in dressed beef has almost disappeared
owing 20 the higher prices here than
abroad Two steamers sailed with I'VE

THE HORSE TRAFFIC.
The horse market during the past week
has been satisfactory, and prices have
been steady but without change. Horses;
of good quality in any class sell readily
bat there is rather poor demand for
thin, medium weight, secondhand wagon
and light caravan horses, the supply OF
these being large. Good heavy country
horses, weighing from 100 to 1900 pounds,
are in active demand. The supply of
these is none too large. Prices for the
best heavy draft horses range from $3.50
to $3.50; medium weight drafters s25O@350;
light weight work horses s15Od250; and
medium to good driving horses $125G225.
At the city stables:
Wheeler, McElveen & Co report very
good demand, particularly for the best
horses. They received four express car
leads of country horses and about 100 ac-
climated horses. Prices did not vary from
,everal previous weeks.
Myer Abrams & Co. received two loads
of country horses and 40 secondhand
horses. The demand for the latter was
slow, but they found a good demand for
tie big. heavy country horses, which al
most always sell well.
WEIGH, Hall & Co. had a quiet trade,
with prices steady at previous figures.
They received and sold two loads of coun-
Try horses and L. to 20 acclimated horses.
