NEW YORK , Del. 23. The mnrkcl gave
convincing evldcncn lodny of a subslnntlnl
rrrowtli of bull sentiment In Wall street.
The denllnns took on moro nppcnrnnco ot
animation than at any time since the violent
lent downward course of prices when the
money situation first begnn to awaken i
anxiety. Dealings were very well dlstrlb-
uled In that almost every department pt
the , sccurllles market was represented In '
lh advance. Handsome KIIIIIS In price
were achieved In mnny prominent stocks
anfl in a large number of cases Ihe lasl
prices were Iho best. In oilier cases prolll i
lafcjno mnde nolnble Inroads upon tne ,
dof's-.hlghest prices nnd some effort was ,
obvloijs In sustaining Iho mnrket In the ,
clixlnir dealings , 1
It wns n noticeable fcnturo of the mari i
kel , also , that whllo a number ot members - |
bors of a distinctive group ot stoeks would
show great slrcnglh and activity otheri |
members of the snme group , seemingly do- ]
ondent on the snme Influences , would re-
mnln quiescent nnd nlmost Immovable.

CATTLE The fat cattle market wns bad
his morning. The reason was easily found.
Chicago reported the fat cattle market 20
joOc lower for lost week , medium to prrtty
good cattle ! standing the most loss. At the
same time the market nt this point did not
decline over 10@ > lCc. Buyers seumiU to have
come to the conclusion that It was time the
market at this point came down to the
same level ns other markets. They did not
start out to the yards until late , BO that
the market wns very slow In opening and
slow after It did open. As n rule buyers
were bidding at the vt'ry least lOc lower ,
ind In mnny cases 25c lower. Sellers were
linrdly prepared to make so much conces
sion , so that the market was draggy all
the morning.
There were not many fat cattle among
the offerings and ns sellers held on buyers
wore forced to ralso their hands , and they
finally cleared the yards before midday at
prices that were not more than 510c ! lower
than last week.
Some of the ) best cowa and heifers sold
at prices that were not much different from
the clode of Saturday , but there wore a
good many on sale and It seemed to be thu
prevailing idea of buyers to tnke off about
lOc AB was the case with other kinds ot
cattle , the market waa slow , and It. was
late before * a clearance was effected.
The best stockers and feeders were In'act
Ive demand and the market on that kind of.
cattle was fully stc ady. There were , how
ever , very few cattle ° of that kind on sale.
On the other hand , the general run of the
common to medium kinds of cattle , were
slow eale and the market weak In addition.
The good kinds of feeders sold early , but
it was slow work unloading1 the common
kinds. Representative sales :

SHEEP Receipts were large todny. but
there wusi a correspondingly good demand
for mutton grades' , so that the
market was In good shape ns re-
Bards the selling interests. Good mut
ton sheep were fully steady with last week ,
while lambs were generally nbout lOo higher.
The most of the early arrival ; ? changed
hands In good season , but neirly half of the
receipts did not put In an appearance until
elope to 11 o'clock , which made the market
rather late.
The stocker nnd feeder markel did not
show much change as compared with the
close of last week. There Is a fair demand
for that kind of stock.
