Prices as a rule were a little stronger than they were yes terday. The market on beef steer could safely be quoted active and strong on anything at all desirable. As there were only a few loads offered and as all the buyers wanted them competition was keen and an early clearance was made. A compared with a week ago there 1 now very little change In ruling prices. The market haa fluctu ated up and down to quite an extent during the week, but at the close there is not a great deal of change on anything at all desirable from the price that were paid at the close of last week. The cow market was also active and a little stronger on the better grade today. When it came to canners and cutters, though, the market was slow and no more than steady. The better grades of cow. and heifers may be quoteT) steady for the week, or, ln other words, auch kinds as sell from 33 up. Those that sell under $3 are a little lower for the week and canners and common cuttera are fully 26c 'lower than they were a week ago and very dull at the decline. A choice bunch of cow sold today as high as $4.36. Bulla, veal calve and stags sold today at Just about steady prices, only a few being offered. For the week bulls are about steady If at all good, but common kinds are a little lower and so ate veal calves. Very few stocker and feeders were of fered toduy and the market showed no quotable change from yesturday. The same as usual, though, on a Friday not many cattle were wanted and common kinds were hard to move. The best grades of feeder are probably not much different from a week ago, but the commoner kinds are all the way from 15c to 25c lower. Representa tive sales: BEEF BTGER8 AT. tr. . 40 I at 14 16.
