rather backward and movement was slow
Ewes were more plentiful than other
classes OF live mutton and generally moved
at prices only slightly lower than those
noted Monday. Best offerings sold as high
as $3.50 This Figure may also be credited
with extreme limit on wethers, but prime
grades were not available TO make an &C
tual test of tops early. YearlinEs were
wanted at $3.50 and less, quality and weight
determining the price.
Lambs sold at levels little different from

ever, and the situation was rather bearish
than otherwise Heavy animals were none

CATTLE-There was a very marked
change In the cattle yards this morning. II
had been feared by some that the sharp
break In prices yesterday and day before
might render the country rather panicky
and might flood the market with cattle. II
was very evident this morning, however,
that the country has no such Intentions and
is prepared to hold back supplies In case
the price drops too low. Chicago was ex-
pecting 10000 head this morning, but only
received about 1900 and other markets had
similar experience.
Under the influence of the small offerings
OF cattle and a feeling that receipts the re-
mainder OF the week would continue light,
the market this morning on beef steers was
safely l0c higher at the very least. A good
many statesmen were quoting an advance
OF lOplOc and some comparing today's sales
with the extreme low point yesterday and
day before were declaring that some OF
the cattle at least sold 15G25c higher. To
say the least, there was h great improve
ment in the days trade and considerable
proportion of decline recorded yesterday
and day before was recovered.
What has been said regarding beef steers
would apply In equal degree to cows and
helfers. They were In active demand and
safely 10q16c higher and In some cases pos
sibly more than that compared with the ex-
treme low point yesterday and the day be-
fore. The market was quite active at the
advance noted and practically everything
in sight changed hands in good season in
the morning.
Il was hardly to be expected that there
should be a very active demand for stock
cattle ana Iee0ers Whlle the weather Is SOFT
and feed lots In a miry condition. Still there
was considerable inquiry this morning and
as fresh receipts we're light the offerings
sold quite readily at good steady prices.
Buyers In some cases, at least, claimed
that they were forced to pay a little more
money than yesterday.
