Morse and Mule Market.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 24.-Horses-Th
southern trade, while of fairly good
volume, was not conducted on the
strong basis as the eastern selling.
There were many purchasers on hand
from the states below the Mason and
Dixon line, and they bought many
animals, but. like the trade has been
for many months, values were low.
Very little change was apparent in
the trading OF war animals. The va.
rious foreign governments purchas.
ing on the market began operations
early as usual and the buying con.
tinued up to a late hour. Many horses
bought by foreign governments were
shipped this week, which gives the
more storage room and sell
ers claim they are able to handle all
that came in.
Southern horses ......... 8 60@110
Eastern horses .......... 1850 1S5
Extra good heavy eastern
drafters 1s5@215
Army horses ............. 115@1s5
Mules-There is a good demand
for all the extra fine good quality
mules available, but prices are 80
low that shippers fail to send them
to the market and buyers absolutely
refuse to take on the common inter
mediate stun, and when they do.
values are far below the basis OF 7
which they were this time the pref
lous year.
