ot. Lolie Horses and Mules.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-. Nov. 14-Horses-
Numerous buyers from southern ter
ritory showed up. along with some
eastern demand, and indications are
favorable for an exceptionally good
trade on all domestic classes this
week.
French. British and Italians fur
nfshed the inquiry for war classes.
The English inspectors took both rid
ers and artillery sorts. as usual, but
cobs had to be fifteen hands and above
to suit, and the number was limited
Italian inquiry was chiefly for ridinl
classes-heavy and light types-foi
which prices were s12o and $40
French were In for both riders ant
artillery sorts, with more liberal IN
spections than usual. Belgians were
inactive.

Mules-Supply was too heavy fol
the demand, and there was fear thai
the heavy offerings would congest thu
market. Demand was stronger than
a week ago, but all kinds were plenti
full and prices had seemingly not ad
yanced any. Best inquiry was for cot
ton mules. There was an abundance
of thin and outclassed grades.
