action of the sterling market after the ail'

like a further strengthening of rates. This

sent season. The portion of thu Lazard.

FIUDAY , April 27.
ItccelptR of cattle were morcratc today
but the supply of both hogs and sheep wai
light. So far this week , compared will
last , there has been n decrease of .1,000 cat
tic , 4iOO ! hogs and C.700 sheep.
Although the fresh supply of cattle wai
by no mentiB large , thcru were too man ]
hero to sustain prices In thu'faco of lowei
markets cast and a generally Indifferent dc
mand. Trail u was very slow , and for tlu
most part prices averaged lOc to IGc lowei
than Thursday. On sonic of the nice llghi
handy beeves , which were , as usual , It
good request , thcro was not that much ci i
lifeline , while some of the heavier grades
where they were not fat , were pretty clom
to 20c lower. In general the cjuallty of tin
cattle was pretty good , offerings Including
plenty of desirable beeves , both heavy nni
light , and yet nothing sold up to the $ :
mark Fair to good 1,200 to 1,450-lb. bcovci
sold nt from $3.00 to $3.95 , while common ti
very good steers , weighing from 800 to 1,15 (
Ids. brought from $3.-IO up to $3.85. Ship
pcrs and exporters did u moderate business
hut the bulk of the receipts went to tin
dressed beef mun. Business was rather or
the dull nnd dragging order , but n very gooi
clearance wns finally made.
The market for cow stuff wns Just aboul
steady. Good fat cows and heifers sold ti |
to $3.35 , and thin canners down an low ul
$1. Calves were In very respectable demand
but generally at easier prices. The market
for rough stock was not more than steady
Good fat stags sold up to $3.10.
The trade In stockers and feeders wns nol
at all rushing , but prices were general ! )
firmly held. A good demand for the pnsl
few days has cleaned up speculators' slip'
idles pretty well , and both they nnd comr
try buyers were after the limited offerings
today. Light stock cattle were In bettet
demand tlian the heavier grades. Some little -
tlo 43S-lb. stuff brought $3.u5. nnd a bit
string of very good grade feeders s > old foi
$3.80. Good to choice feeders are rjuotei
at $3.25(33.85 ( ; fair to good nt $3.0003.25 , am :
lighter , commoner grades at from $3 down

HOGS Kncclpts were comparatively light ,
about the same a on Thursday and u week
ago today , nnd there" was no particular
change In the general quality of the offer
ings. Notwithstanding favorable reports
from Chicago buyers for local houses were
disposed to pound the market , and would
undoubtedly have done so had It not been
for a big shipping order from Armour of
Chicago , which took nearly half the entire
receipts , As It was , neither Cudahy nor
Hammond bought a hog. The range of
prices was narrow. Knrly sales of fair to
good hogs of all weights wore mostly at
$5.10 , while Into sales nt the saino kinds ot
hogs wore mostly at $5.15 , Those figures
constituted the extreme range , with nothing
nbavo and little of any consequence below.
The market was a trifle slow In opening , but
closed up active and strong , the general
average of prices paid being n nickel higher
than on Thursday or last Friday , on both
of which days the bulk of the trading wns
at $5.05 and $ D.10. Representative ) sales :

NEW YOHK , April 27. TSradstrect's to
morrow will say : The freneral buslncsi
situation throughout the United States li
less favorable , as Is shown by reports fron
more than llfty Important dlstrlbutlnt
centers.
A specially depressing Influence Is thi
strike of 147,000 bituminous coal nnd cokt
operatives In twelve stntcs. Only twt
cities of thirty-live reporting In central
western nnd northwestern states report nnj
material Improvement In Keneral trade this
week Indianapolis nnd Kansas City. Kvet
nt those points the Kain Is slight. Actlvltj
In tne stock mnrkct Is checked by the laboi
disturbances and the delay In reaching n
conclusion on llio new tariff bill. ProfeS'
Klonnl operators nre Inclined to dcpre ? !
the rallwny share list by moans of sheri
sales. The market , however. Is narrow am
subject lo rcaotlc.n. Industrial stocks , how
ever , are stioiifr. The bond market Is quiet
but llrm. Koreljjn exchnnKC Is dull , but or
Friday JI. 200.000 In Kold was cnKnKfd foi
export to France. Silver had a speculative
rise on rumor that India's mints would re
open , but the quotations for bars has re
ceded to &l/4 cents per ounce.
A feature at C'hlcnRO Is In the sales ol
dry Roods equaling the average of previous
weeks , other lines not making so favorable
a report.
St. I ouls reports Its general liusIneFf
situation fair , although characterizing the
demand as of n hand-to-mouth variety.
The decrease In demand from Jobbers nl
Omaha nnd other points In Nebraska Is
attributed to activity of farm work. Trade
nt points further west Is very unfavorably
affected by the tie-up of the Great Northern
railroad.
Merchants at cities In North Dakota ,
Montana , Idaho and Washington are carryIng -
Ing reduced stocks , purchasing for Im
mediate needs only , and rallronds travers
ing that region report a marked fallliifi
off In through ns well as local shipments.
There have been 2.227,000 bushels of wheal
( Hour Included ) exported from the United
States this week , against 3.019,000 bushels
last week , 2Mi7,000 bushels In the corresponding
pending week a year ago , 3,259,000 bushel ?
