Quotations at Market centsrs.

Chicago, Dec. 14.-Heavy receipts
caused a 10 cent break in hog prices
today.
Eleven markets were credited with
1116OO hogs Wednesday, or 2o,500 less
than the previous Wednesday, $500
more than a year ago and $1,000 less
than two years ago. Total the first
half of this week $4,000. or $4,000 less
than the same period last week. 5000
less than the like time last year and
$4,000 less than the corresponding three
date, 1851, 0O0 or 5.67SO0O more than
the same period 1910 and 2,24S,000 more
than the corresponding time 1909.
Cattle.
Cattle were steady but demand
lacked activity. Offerings were slow.
The run Wednesday at $1,000 stood
10000 above last Wednesday and 1850
more than a year ago and made $4,000
for three days this week, against 53,S91
a week ago and 66,167 year ago, while
Of this crop there have been shipped
thus far about 1900 less cattle than
last week, and the situation can well
be seen to lay rather firmly in pack
grasp. The west had moderate sup
plies, and it was fortunate that the crop
at river markets did not run proper
tonately as large as here. Six mar
kets total for the day was 49,S0O,
against $4,000 week ago, while for the
three days this week the combined run
stood ISL, 600, an increase Of $4,000 over
week ago, but still 1000 below year
ago and 5000 less than marketing at
these points in the same period two
years ago.
Meager runs will be needed later this
week in order to effect clearance of the
supply. The trade necessarily will be
well loaded with beef. and altho one
is heard to complain of bad outlet for
the product it is significant that enough
is plenty.
colder spell Of weather, which is
due now and must hit the cornbclt
soon, would put feed yards in better
condition and check corn waste. 1t
would also stimulate beef demand and
thus afford a good packer and shipping
call for the medium to good grades OF
steers.
| Excessive supplies at present, on the
other hand, only permit the killers u
put away surplus of beef in their
coolers at relatively cheap price. and
this will be used as an influence III
| checking price strength later on, when
the inevitable result of heavy early
| winter cattle liquidation must be felt
in shorter receipts.
| Sheep.
Lambs were 1925 cents lower FOR
the most part Sheep were weak.
While receipts Wednesday were first
estimated at $4,000, the later count was
| 40 900 and higher. against 36,233 week
ago and 32,s19 year ago. Total thus
far this week 100000, an increase OF
21Q0 compared with the same period
last week and decrease Of $500 COM
pared with the corresponding time q
year ago Six markets had $500
against $4,000 a week ago and $500.
year ago Total the first half Of this
week $4,000 or 10000 more than tbs
same period the previous week anc
5000 less than the corresponding three
days year ago.
