Kansas City Stock Yards, May l5.--
Cattle receipts here last week were
little larger than the previous week,
but were still moderate, and less than
the corresponding week a yeac ago.
The market advanced 10 to Is cents
ior tho week, to which might be added

good fills secured all week. The rise
in priCe and the general action OF the
market were acceptable to shippers,

in the breasts of cattle feeders last
wssk received some discouragement
today, run nearly 1o,00) mere, and
heavy at Chicago, market steady - 10
lower. worst on heavy stecrs. The
lackset today is not regarded serious
ly and a general uplift in prices is an
ticipated in the next few weeks. Pack
ers anticipate this. as they have al.
ready served notice of an advance in
wholesale price of meats, effective in
the near future. The best price paid
for heavy steers last week was SG.10,
yearlings made $6.15, and heifers
$605. Heavy steers reached $6.05 to-
day, bulk of steers selling at $3.50 to
$5 80, cows $4.00 to 1925, heifers SAFE
to $500, bulls $I4O0 to $5.25, valves
$3.50 to $6.75, stockers and feeders
firmly held, at $525 to $5.75 for most
sales. Receipts from Colorado have
been very light( tops in the last week
at $5.S5. A fair run of guarantees ar
rived today, fed steers up to $50 to-
day, grass steers $4.OO to $4.75
The hog market gained about Is
cents last week and closed ut the
highest point of the week Local re.
ceipts were about as heavy as in re-
cent weeks, $4,000 head, but outside
points fell down a little in supplies
and the feeling prevails that we are
on the eve of smaller runs at all
points. This feeling, together with an
actual reduction in the supply at Chi
cago and one or two other points, and
heavy exports of the product last
week, are causes for the active buy
ing of the packers, and their willing
ness to advance the price. The same
greedy manner characterized theiI
buying today, run here 1000, market
strong to higher, bulk of sales $6.1C
to s6.15, top $500.
Sheep and lambs also had a good
week, and closed Friday about quar-
ter higher for the week, nothing here
Saturday The run today is 11,00(
head, made up of Arizonas and Colo
radios mostly, few natives, no Tex
ans. Texas shippers had about de
cided against shipping much to mar

prices, but the advances recently may
cause them to revise their decision
The market is strong to 10 higher to
day, clipped lambs at $3.50, spring
lambs worth S6.95, clipped Arizon;
yearlings $3.50, clipped ewes worth VI
