LIVESTOCK CORRESPONDENCE.

Kansas City Stock Yards.-A de-
crease of 10000 cattle in the receipts
here last week from the previous
week, together with losses at other
markets, put a good edge on the mar
ket and everything moved promptly
at an advance of around % cents for
the week. Last week marked the
finish Of the season for native and
quarantine grass cattle, although
there will be stragglars for some time
yet. Fed cattle are very scarce, and
there hash t been any top notch cat
Tie here for ten days. Dealers predict
that warmed up steers, which have
been fed shock corn, or low grade,
Womy corn, will be put forward free
r in the immediate future, but they
say that few cattle have been put up
for long feed. Everybody looks for
a bare spot next spring, and extreme
ly high prices then. Against this, the
census reports gives more cattle to
the farming states than ten years ago
which may have the effect of increas-
ing receipts at inconSpicuous markets
thereby acting as ballast for the gen.
eral market. The run here Monday
was 10000, and the market steady to
strong. Packers searched eagerly for
choice to prime steers, but they could
not find any here with a spy glass
Monday, the best stopping at $775.
Prime steers would bring $500. The
general run of beef steers are selling
Is cents to $10O higher than year
ago now. Best COWS bring $500, top
veals $7.75. Country buyers are tax
ing their kinds up to the limit of the
supply at prices in force best time
last week, $500 to $5.75. Best quar-
antine steers brought $5.25 Monday,
others at $500, few steers under $500
cows around $3.50. I"
The hog market declined 10 to 10
cents last week, under liberal market
ing, receipts here totaling $500. The
feature last week was the improve
ment in quality in all classes, even
pigs showing up more healthy than
heretofore Talk of hog cholera, how.
ever, is more pessimistic than it was

not bear the stamp of many of the
tales told by shippers. Some of the
