SIOUX CITY LIVESTOCK MARKET
MARKETS


MARKETS. G-kJo urna lie
Sioux City, Aug. As is usually
the case on a Friday only a moderate
run of cattle arrived. some 20 cars, or
500 head, as against Gil a week ago,
and AZ head the corresponding day a
year ago.
As far as prices for fat cattle were
concerned there was little or no
change with that of yesterday. The
same broad demand for all classes
existed and an early clearance was
effected. Best here were yearlings
that sold at 1910.
Stock cattle remained steady.
Fresh supply was limited and as far
as could be judged all the strength
noted earlier in the week was held.

Movement to the country this week
has been sufficient and a good clear
ance is in sight for the week for the
dealers.
Buyers were again successful in
their efforts to push hog prices low
er. Competition for the good mixed
and butcher grades aided sellers in
disposing of this class and sales were
not a great deal lower, while packing
grades were mostly 10c lower. Top
for the day reached $685., while the
bulk ranged from $500 $3.50.
Business basis was unchanged i'm
the sheep house. Direct shipments
to packers made up the bulk of the
supply.
