ST. LOUIS, Dec. 7.-Horses-Sever
al southern order buyers were on
hand to get an early choice at the
supply, but the attendance was lighter
than usual and the competition was
not very strong, causing things to
move around in rather draggy man
ner. There was no demand whatever
for the eastern types and the greater
part of the Offering went to the for
eign quarter, where any good suit
able animal found An excellent outlet.
The best domestic sellers were light
southern mares. OF which the better
grade stock sold around from Sis
to S1S5.
The best sellers Of the day were
the kinds suitable to the French and
italian contracts, and the market was
pretty well cleaned up Of those types
before the close. Both inspections are
taking all Of the choice animals they
can get.
