The receipts of stock toeluy of till kinds
footed up a few less than 2uO cars , as
igainst .Jlfl ) esterday , 133 u week HBO , 97
: wo weeks ago and 221 three weeks ago.
In other words , it was a Rood , llbeial run
for u Thursday and the largest for that day
of the week so f.u tills month The ! falling
off In the receipts from jrsterdn ) of 150
cars was t cully a goeid thing , ns It gave the
market a breathing spell after several davs
of large receipts. Thu markc-t as u. whole
was In very fair condition.
CA'ITLE While there vvero only nbout
sixty lo ids of cattle here today , the- re
ceipts were considerably larger than they
were one and two weeks HBO AH n lulu
ihursday is a poor clay fen cattle , as biie-rs
for shipping account are usually absent
from themirkct and countrv shippers have
giown cautious about sending in many
c.ittle for that dav. Todav's market , how
ever , was i-omethlng of nn exception to the
general rulr . Armour's biier was out earl )
und bccme-d to want as many cattle as it
was possible to get and as tlieru was ulso
i fait local demand the market opened
active and It was not long before the pens
were cloaied. The prices pilel for corn-
fed beeves were strong as compared with
) esterday and the whole trade might be
summed up as a Rood strong and active
market. The cattle were largel ) of fairish
iv erage quality , such ns are selling at
$4 40-TH M )
There was very little hero In the wa > of
butchers' stock and only a few loads of
cows and holfurs were to be found In the
) ards. At the Mime time there ) was about
the usual demand nnd buyers complained
tint there wen- not enough cattlu to go
mound. Tlio maiket was firm nnd active
and cve-rj thing bold promptly. Bulls , stags ,
etc , brought about the same prices as
terday.
As VMS the case yesterday , the stockcr
nnd feeder division was almost b ire of
supplies nnd there was hardly enough of
any one kind to establish quotation ! , . It
would be safe to s ly , however , that the
few cattle tei be had brought good strong
prices and that there was a demand for a
good many more. Representative sales :
