CHiTisE-Recelpts were very large thl.
This brings the total Tor tho three days
up TO S,1S2 head. THIS Ia the largest
number OF cattle ever received at this
Ssord tor whole SRS week hsvbs bSSn
The market opened out very slow and
weak, and Il was late before very much
business was transacted, partly because
there were so many cattle that had TO
be sorted and shapes up before they
could be offered for sale. The average
quality OF the cattle was poor, there
having been an extremely large percent
axe OF trash Ia the receipts all this week.
Prices on beef steers are around iSd
Sc lower for the week, while cows and
feeders are l6d25e lower and medium to
Soc lower.
