Kansas City LiUestock Prices

Kansas City Stock Yards, May 29. 1916. Under the impress of IA, 900 cattle here and 1000 in Chicago, buyers today attempted to force a reduction here from the strong close of the market last week, 35 to 50 higher for the week. But they had little success, closing sales stronger. There were several features, among them the sale of heavy beef steers at $10.50. fed at Tulla, Texas. in the Panhandle country. Odd head of natives brought S10. 50. sales from 5000 to $10.25 were numerous, and native steers seldom got below $9. Range on the 40 cars of pulp steers here was $9.70 to $10. 10, except 4 cars of 1000 lb. steers at $9.35. Butcher grades took on the full strength of the situation last week, and retained today, strictly prime cows up to $8.75. and mixed yearlings $10. .00. A run of 25 cars arrived in the quarantine division, and sold quickly, at good prices. compari- sons beng difficult. account of small supply in that section re- gently. Straight grass steers from south Texas brought $8.15, south Texas steers caked little, $8 50. north Texas fed steers S8. .85, Oklahoma common grass CTS $7. Stockers and feeders held steady with close of last week, but again there is feeling that break is imminent. Pas lures are full as a rule. and the demand shows signs of decreas- ing. Most of the stock steers range from $7. 50 to $8 50, choice thin steers of all weights up to $8.85. although packers pick up practically all the feeders.
 Hogs sold 5 to 10 lower today. receipts 17.00O head. Demand was excellent from all sources, and local prices showed more strength than prices at any other market. top $9.75. within 5 cents of Chicago top. same as St Louis, 5 cents above St. Joseph and 10 cents above Omaha. Bulk of sizes range from $9. 45 to $9. 70, and light hogs stopped at $9.6 50. The market has been weakening since Tuesday of last week. although there are signs of a fail ure of the effort to bear prices at the close of last week. Good runs all round thls morning gave the situation over to buyers in a measure, but opinion is still divided as to whether or not we will get a very severe break with the usual June runs.
 Sheep and lambs have been slipping for a week. and took a big slide today. prices off 25 to 50 cents. and about 75 cents low CT for the week. Receipts include Arlz6na spring lambs at SIPS, only 25 cents under top in Chicago for spring lambs today, clipped westerns here at S10.50, Texas clipped wethers on the revised selling prices going at $7. 75 to $7. 90. brusher goats $5. 60 and S5.65, these showing less decline than anything else in the sheep house, fat goats quotable at $5. 60 to $500.
