cATTLE-Receipts were fairly liberal
and the quality Of the offerings was
about the best Of the season on an aver.
age. Demand from both dressed beer
men and shippers was vigorous. but there
was a decided hesitancy on the part OF
buyers to pay any strong prices and the
result was a rather hesitating market all
forenoon. strictly desirable beeves. both
heavy and light, found ready sale az
steady 10 strong prices and the ordinary
sun OF shortfed and warmedup cattle sold
in substantially the same notches as on
yesterday. IL was a good steady 10
strong market from start TO finish. al
though trading was not overly active at
any time.
The market for cows end heifers was
fully steady and prices remained at the
high point Of the season. Notwithstand-
ing the very high level Of value for cows
and heifers the demand from all sources
was OF the most vigorous kind and the
limited supply changed hands In good
season. Common and canning grades
were uneven sellers, but brought about as
much r-oney as any time recently. veal
calves were In active request and strong
and there was broad outlet ana a firm
market for bulls. stays. etc.
An active demand from yard traders
featured the market for stoekers and
feeders although country buyers were not
very numerous. In fact, II locks as II
the trade this week would be about the
same as last. Spectators doing most OF
the business during the early part OF the
week and country buyers holding off un-

ably strong for useful offerings OF all
kinds and the volume Of business was OF

HOGS-An unusually heavy supply OF
hogs sent prices downward. the market
ruling 5aIl0c lower. Something like ls,vO
head arrived, many shippers showing up
with strings from sections that they de-
seribed as being completely barren a
snort time ago. Quality Of the run was
rather common. on an average, as con-
siderable proportion OF offerings consls-
ted OF up-and-down stuff. suggesting
much smaller receipts in the near future,
Despite the generous marketing, few
buyers were disposed to hold back at
cheaper cost. and the. trade was featured
by a fair degree OF activity throughout
tie session. outside orders called for
about 10 per cent Of the crop, good me-
alum weight grades selling TO best adj
vantage on shipping account The IL
o'clock clearance was very creditable.
Best heavy hogs on sale brought N.5.
as compared with yesterdays top Of $40,
and bulk was fairly well buncned within
N.5oa1.65. Light offerings moved at $3.50
and less poor bacon and choice lard
classes selling 10000 apart.
