Today's Markets.

Chicago Union Stock Yards, May
28.-All sections of the live stock
markets were featured with heavy
receipts and we're hit a solar plexus
blow in prices, hogs declining l0c,
cattle mostly zoe and sheep Toe.
The bulletin this morning showed
81, 900 fresh arrivals of hogs and was
later corrected to $4,000, which was
over 10000 more than had been ex-
pected and put sellers at disadvant-
age. Local packers were bearish and
refused to buy early OH reduction OF
sc and even after another sc cut was
taken off they purchased slowly and
sparingly, leaving heavy surplus for
tomorrow. The early buying was all
done by eastern shippers and scalp
ers, who got the pick at big nickel
below Tuesday. The quality of the
hogs was unusually good. The aver
age price at this time is estimated at
Sc below yesterday. .'..
The bulk today sold at $8.55 @S.60,
against $S.60@8.70 yesterday; $3.50
$40 last Wednesday; $8.35@8.55 four
weeks ago; $7.40@7.50 corresponding
Wednesday in 1912; $5.85@5.95 in
1911; $9.50@9.65 in 1910; $725@7.45
The top paid today was $8.671a for
one load only; yesterday $8.72h; last
Wednesday S8.75; four weeks ago,
$50; one year ago $7.57lA; two years
ago 5000; three years ago $9.67R;
four years ago $7.55, and FIVE years
ago today $3.50.
The cattle run today was $4,000 and
among them were very few good
steers, only few odd scattering lots
being offered, the best of which were
not considered very choice and loo
below same quality Of yesterday. The
market was slow and dull and the
close exceptionally so with everything
practically zoe below Tuesday. Many
pens had been untouched at the close.
Suckers and feeders lacked demand
and almo suffered in the decline.
Sheep and lambs were uneven to-
day. The arrivals at $4,000 were too
heavy for trade needs. While few
offerings of choice lambs ana special
offerings were close to steady with
yesterday, the marke; in general was
loo lower than yesterdays decline, or
about 35 to 40 cents lower than last
weeks close.
The estimated receipts for to7nor-
row are 10000 hogs, 1000 cattle and
1900 sheep.
Receipts for today we're 10000 cat
tie. $4,000 hogs and $4,000 sneep, as

Offerings of Greater Variety

Chicago, May 2S.-Offerings of cat
tie on the opening day of the week
shower greater variety than for some
weeks. The percentage of cattle was
not as large as usual on the big days
of the week and such steers as were
offered showed greater range of fin.
ish, thus enabling some of the coun-
try feeder buyers to buy in a rather
cheaper class of beef cattle. The big
packers have been hoping that the
steers will show a great spread based
on quality, and it seems that their
hopes are now being fulfilled.

inadequate to assuage the pangs of a
stricken heart. We trust and believe
they will be blessed with the presence
