Chicago Live StocK Market CHICAGO , March 21. Hogs Market for hogs wai active Lo the extent of the supply on pack ing and ( hipping account , and Saturday - day a advance was maintained. Sales ranged'from ' $5 75 a G 35 for good to choice smooth shipping heavy. At present writing the bulk of. the offer ings are sold. The fresh receipts were 1,500 head. Cattle Receipts of cattle were the lightest that have been received at the yard. Up to 11 o'clock they only numbered 90 head , and owing to the anew blockade on the different roads , the prospect is that but few , if any , will arrive daring the day , and in the absence of sales we quota the market entirely nominal for all grades of stock.
