Tuesdays Daily.)

At the close of the day Monday the
trading in mules was a bit better
than it had been during the earlier
hours, but it was stated that the
prices, taken altogether for the day,
had ranged lower than for many
months. A. L. Patrick sold a num-
ber of mules at auction at Matthews
Bros stable and it was stated that
Patrick had said he had lost practi-
cally $4,000 on the sale, the prices
running so much lower than he had
anticipated and so much lower than
usual.
On account of the low figures Offer
ed there was large holdover from
the number of offerings, and on the
east side of the square there was ev-
cry appearance of first Monday
mule crowd, probably three hundred
being again on the market this morn
ing. There were several buyers on
the streets and there was as much
trading early apparently as there was
Monday before noon
The offerings this morning we're
principally of the rougher grades,
there being but few of the top rang
ers on the streets.
The exceedingly inclement weath-
er, very similar to that of the first
Monday in January, had bad effect
on the appearance Of the stock, and
the spirits of the buyers seemed to be
affected also. During the day, how
ever, it was estimated that the sales
would possibly aggregate five hun
dred head. This did not reach the
January sales by several thousands
Of dollars.
During the east three months Mon
day has shown itself to be too small
for the trading and it has Tapped into
