UNION STOCKYARDS, CHICAGO, Nov.
The total for the week also fell short of
last weeks supply, put market centers were
unfavorable for stuff showing medium and
plain quality. Values closed far below a
week ago. Warm weather and a consequent
decrease in demand for the ready product
were the main reasons for the drop in
values. Hog trade showed a big decline at
the weeks low, but sellers look for improve
/ ment here next week. Nearly 200 stale
hogs were in the pens today.
Receipts were $500 cattle, %, 900 hogs,
5000 sheep and 1000 calves.
Cattle-Demand for cattle was slow, but
values were generally steady. No strictly
prime fed steers were on hand. Some sales
were made at Sc. 0O@1O.0O, but many sters
sold below these figures. Cows and heifers
also were slow at about steady values. Bids
were easy for Gamers, but calves were
picked up we'll. Choice veal calves went
over at $10.00M10i50. ..,[

start, but values were strong and some 260-
pound butchers reached $8.05, with good 225-
pound stuff at $S.50@S.60. The market was
strong at the best point, but 1t weakened
little late in the session. Some bids at SIS. SO
