overwhelming receipts at some other
points. especially Chicago. followed by
| bad breaks, caused the market here to
take turn for the worse. Another weak
feature of the trade was the fact that
receipts at this point were made up of
cattle OF very poor quality.
Few, IL any, really good beef steers
reached the yards this week There were
plenty of half fat and inferior grades of
cornfeds and few Westerns but practi-
cally nothing that could be classed as
breaking badly prices here steadily
worked to a lower basis, and at the clos

The best cows and the general run Of
common Gamers were in very fair de-

they are l0ll15c lower. On the other hand,
there were great many medium kinds
of both cows and heifers, and they are
generally 25c lower than last week
Stockers and feeders followed the lead
| OF killing cattle and steadily worked
lower. The general run OF common to
medium cattle OF that description are
fully 25o lower thar last week. On the

arrived during the week, and, as n result
prices on such have shown llttle or no
| change.
