Horse and Mule Market
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. 3.-Horses--
| A few buyers from the east and south
were on hand, but as usual they did
not want heavy supplies, and only
light sales resulted. Neither section
would pay prices that sellers thought
were right, and generally speaking
1 the trade was not entirely satisfac'
tory. The big end of the offerings
consisted Of rejects from the war
horse section of the market and It
natural for these kinds to sell rather
low. War horse trade was conductea
! along the same lines as usual, vita
the single exception Of the English
government being out of the market
While their demand was missed to
certain extent. other governments
were in strong and took fairly large
supplies. French, Belgians and ltat
fans were taking good supplies ana
