the bulk of tho early sales went Ironi

of tho hogs had changed hands, however,
packers heiran tn weaken, nnd for n time
nothing was doing, ns sellers wero holding

Tho Inst halt of tho market wns very
slow, ns packers wero only offering $5.25
nnti n.x..5i owing to Chicago closing with

CATTLE There was another liberal run
of cattle here todny and buyers started out
to get inctr supplies at lower prices, ucer
steers, in particular, were slow and It Is
safe to call the market on steers 5010c
lower than yesterday. There were over
60 cars on sale nntl the Chicago market was
nono too good, an ot wntcn worKeu against
the sellliiK Interests and nave buyers an
opportunity to bear the market. As sellers
wero holdlnir for Kood Htronu Drlces the
mnrkot was slow and draggy trom start to
nnisn nnti it was late Dcrore mucn nau
been done.
Tho cow market started out in fairly nooil
shape nnd sales were made at right around
steady prices. As tho morning advanced,
however, tno market seemed to weaken.
At no time was trading ns active as was
the case yesterday and the market lacked
the tono nnd snan of yesterday. The nrlces
paid wero more lu lino with Tuesday'R mnr-
net. nuns, caives ana stags oiu not snow
much of any change, packers apparently
belnc willing to take what was offered at
just anout steady prices,
tno downward lentiency or mo stcor
market Is naturally having a depressing
effect upon the feeder trndc, but, as the
supply at this point has been limited, prices
have held up In good shape. Anything
cholco that lias not neen on com meets
with ready sa o at very satlsractory nr chs.
but there nro so few of that kind of cattlo
coming Hint warmed-up cattle are selling
hotter for feeders than for beef. Common
rnttlp. however, of any claBs or weight nre
very slow sale ami sencrs una it diiucuit to
dispose or mni Kinu in any price. Jiep
