Horse and Mule Market.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 16-Qutte few
buyers turned out for the sale anu
the auction displayed shade OF I'M
provement. A right fair demand ior
southern and eastern stock, was leit
! and the market was stronger than the
previous week.
There we're three French inspectors
working, along with two Italians, anu
there was an outlet for any NUMBER
OF army sorts. An insufficient sup
ply OF war horses and shippers are
losing a golden opportunity. Tor there
never was a wider outlet 1or army
types than there is right now anu
there are enough inspections rhnnin :,
to absorb the stock just as last as j.
can be shown. e,e-

mules arrived, moderate Supply uil.
der ordinary conditions, but with .ne
situation like It is at present 'n"'
supply would be ample for twice the
trade Cotton mules are not seli'nS'
and. while the south is stu on t. ne
market for supplies, those buyers VIII
take nothing but fat and quality.
few big mules sell occasionally, put
the demand for that type at present
is not sufficient to Justify any rals'
in prices. .,,-ao75
