The description '.famous,' applied

ADVANCE TO RETAILERS FOL.
LOWS REDUCTION IN PRICE OF :.
BEEF ON HOOP.
CHICAGO DEALERS DECLARE
MOVE 10 QUEER ONE
Second Advance Of Week Announced
With ccc!sr. Filled and Cattle Left
in Yards, Wholesale Quotations Un.
sxpeetedIy Go Hishs-Livs Sheep
Also Selling Lower.

l.
roasts purchased today will cost
housewives 11a to ? cents pound
more than a week ago. as the result
of an advance in wholesale prices by
packers yesterday. They may derive
some soiace from the fact that boil
ing beef shows no increase in cost,
While round steak and hamburger are
only u to X cent pound higher than
week ago. but even then. they will
have to exercise care, as the market IL
said TO be flooded with frozen beef,
purchased last fall, and put on sale
during the last few days.
The advance made in wholesale
prices yesterday was the second this
week. The first came when beef steers
sold at the Union stockyards at the
highest price of the year, and the high
cost on the hoof was given as the rea-
son for the increase in prices OF the
dressed product over the retail
counter.
Cattle Rscsde; Meats Advance.
Since then prices Of cattle at the
stock Yards have reoeded 25 to Is cents
hundred pounds, and receipts OF
cows. steers. and heiferS have been SO
large that packers claimed they could
not find space In their cooling rooms
for the dressed carcasses-
Mutton and lamb prices also have
taken a big tumble this week. selling
s1.25 to $3.50 per hundredweight low
er than at the close OF the market last
week Dressed mutton prices, how
tailers, as well as consumers. are pay
ing as high as they did week ago Tor
lamb roasts, chops. and stew.
When appraised Of the upturn IN
wholesale prices OF dressed beef. a
livestock commission man expressed
surprise and said there would be more
cattle left unsold. to be carried over
for Mondays market than In any pre-
vious week in a long time. They re-
NAMED, he said, because packers said
their coolers were full OF beef and they
could not find room for any moro.
Sheep Receipts Inersase.
Sheep and lambs receipts for the
week showed an increase Of nearly TO-
600 head, but most Of them were
slaughtered and put into coolers, and
the supply Of dressed mutton on the
market was held down to small pro-
portions in order to keep prices from
going lower with the reduced cost OF
live animals.
New prices issued by packers yes
terday made the wholesale cost Of No.
/ beef ribs 1914 cents pound, as con-
,rasted with Is cents week ago. Loins
were advanced to 1874 cents. against
l6is cents. No. grades Of ribs and
Joins also showed gains Of IL az cents
a pound, at Is cents and 17h cents.
respectively, but No. ribs were un-
changed at II cents a pound and No.
loins were only a cent higher, at
1874 cents.
Lamb cuts were quoted wholesale at
14K cents a pound for legs. 81 cents
for loins and 81 cents for stew, or the
same as Q week ago.

and dry weather, tended to keep down
the attendance of country buyers.
Declines have been least on strictly
choice yearlings and best feshy feed

plain stock cattle. Best are hardly
more than 25c down, but bulk OF the
medium to good stockers and feeders

qualified sortss are closing 6O@ zoe
down. the common and plain light stuff
now going at S5.75Q6.50 showing the
full loss. A good qualified class or
600@s00- pound stockers is now going
down around $f@ 1885, and S7.ioG 1.6'
is taking strictly good to choice year

thing OF selected, highly bred class
in the steer yearling line is quotable

Chicago Horse Market.
Chicago, June 20.-Only small runs
will be absorbed for many weeks to
come. 1t will take only few horses
too many to make a material difference
in the tone Of the trade and the price.
Horses AT to go right into hard work
and classifiabIe as chunks or excava-
tions or ''pitters- should continue to
sell we'll, and cocky wagoners and ex-
pressers will also probably find buyers
right along at steady values. AS New
York takes the bulk of the big horses.
it is not likely that the wire edge will
be restored to the call for that sort for
some time, and Of course the inquiry
for farm chunks Is not due to be heard
oft he Hr8 nf
Country buyers therefore will serve
their own interests best by taking on
only the sorts likely to be wanted.
Prospects are not good for any large
number of horses costing over $500, or
less than S165 or Whereabouts. Quota

and over $1,000 $50
