MARKET REPORT.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Feb. o.
Sluggish beef market, together with
too many cattle at Chicago and at
Eastern markets, resulted in 10 to
20 cents lower prices on steers last
week. Cows held firm, also best
heifers, but middle class heifers were
caught in the decline. Stockers and
feeders sold 10 to rs higher during
the week. Receipts Monday this week
were 1000 cattle, market steady on
killing kinds, strong on stockers and
feeders. Best native steers sold at
$685., fair to good natives $500 to
$3.50. Top steers a year ago brought
sS.75. Prime cows sell up to $3.50,
against $500 for best year ago,
