Live Stock Market

y UNION STOCKYARDS, CHICAGO, Nov.
22.-The supply of range cattle is falling
off, and this shows in the total run OF
cattle for the week thus far 1t is now
near the last of the season, and the stuff
shows plain quality. The same is the case
IN the sheep house. Much of the range
stock which was intended for the market
earlier in the season had to be held back
on account of lack of cars. This made the
range season longer than usual, but the sup
ply of cattle from that source is much in
creased compared with last years run.
Nearly 1900 hogs were held over from
yesterday and the trade was weak
Receipts were 10000 cattle, 27 900 hogs,
$4,000 sheep and 1000 calves.
Collaborating was again uneven and.
while the market was able to hold steady
for the best steers, the general market was
weak to 10 to 10 cents off. Heavy steers
sold at $1,000, while yearlings also made
this price. Best cows were steady. Gamers
also sold well, but medium grade cows were
weak. Calves sold at firm prices. Better
shipping orders sent small lots up to $1,000.
Hogs-Hog trade was mostly dime lower
after slow start. Choice light hogs sold ut
$500, while the practical top on butchers
was S7.SJ. The supply was too large today,
and sellers were not able to clear the pens
even at the decline. Few packing hogs sold
below 1925. Pigs sold at $500 for good
lots.
Sheep-Killing lambs sold mostly weak to
few were good enough to reach above $14.GJ.
This was paid by packers and city butchers,
however. Feeders were placed at $13.75M
HOO for choice lots, while good ewes sold
at $7.50017.1J.
