Stock Market

Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan.
27, 1913, Monday. Killing kinds
of cattle declined 10 to 25 cents
last week, and stockers and feed
ers sold 20 to 30 cents lower the
last half of the week. Country
buyers heard of the lower prices
and bought freely after Tuesday,
the outgo to farms for the week
reaching Is, 600 cattle, out of a
total run of 10000 head. The
decline in fat stuff last week
which was greater at other mar
lets than here, especially at
Chicago, had the effect of halting
the heavy liquidations of partly
fat steers, and the run here to-
day is but TO-, head. Every
body had to show their hand on
the buying side today, and all
hands proved to be empty, hence
the market is strong to 10 higher
today, applying to both killing
and country grades. The top on
fed steers last week was So. 25.
but two loads of steers here to-
day received a bid of $S.65,
which the owner refused, hold

fed steers go between 81. 90 and

the market steady today, top

net result last week was gain
of 10 cents on light hogs, and q
loss of 5 cents on heavy weights,
which accounts for the narrow
range of prices today. The
packers hope for larger receipts
Of good weight hogs later this

weight making is profitable at

winter certainly should stimulate
