Horse and Mule Market.
ST LOUIS, Mo-. March 30.-Horses
The southern sections we're better
represented than for some time, and
they took fairly good supplies of the
usual types. Eastern buyers were
again the most active purchasers in
the auction ring These purchasers
wanted chunks and drafters and they
found very little trouble getting
their orders filled.
The main feature of the trade was
the selling ct foreign horses. The ad.
dition of the Belgian government
gave sellers one more source of out
let and large supplies OF these AMI
mails to be used in Europe were dis
posed OF. This governments con-
tract calls for cavalry types ranging
from Is to 1873 hands high and weigh
1000 to 100 pounds. Prices are
high on all classes of government
animals. and shippers win make no
mistake by getting these in.

Mules-Buyers who u showed up
were not in for large supplies and
took nothing but the good quality
types. and prices on these were not
high. in fact, rather low in compari-
son with previous seasons. The kinds
wanted at present are big mules with
plenty of quality and miners. All
these kinds will sell. but they must
be gotten cheap in the country in or
der to make money.
