THE LIVESTOCK MARKET
Omaha Live Stock.
OMAHA, Neb., Oct. 10. CATTLE
Receipts, 17,000. Monday's heavy
run of cattle had a rather ilepressing
etfect on the trade and business waa
frlow in starting. Most of the corn fed
cattle on sale were shortfeds and not
very desirable. Prices were much the
same as last week for these kinds.
Packers were slow to take hold of the
western grass beeves and bids and
sales were around weak to 1525c
lower than Friday. The same was true
as to cowstuir, only more so. Business
in stockers and feeders was very slow
and bids were mostly 15(jrf25c lower on
the liberal offerings.
HOGS Receipt.-, 4,000. The week
opened out with a moderate run of
hogs and the market active at ad
vance. Most of the hojfs sold at prices
that were H)(t2Lc higher, with pack
ing hogs showing more improvement
tliun light grades. Best light hogs
made a top of $S.:!5 and bulk of re
ceipts sold from ?G.35(a7.25.
