CATTIE The xcceipts of cattle were lighi
both hero and at Chicago , and It seemed
good deal like a Saturday In the cattle
yards. From Chicago came reports of ji
steady market , ibut the demand at this polnl
was good on the part of local packers as
well as ahlppura nnd the market war a
little butter than stady. The situation at
regards beef steers might be summed up as
a good , actlva and steady to a little hlghei
market. Some cattle sold In about the sam :
notches as yesterday , while others iolc !
quite a little better where they happened tc
phase buyers. The feeling was certalnlj
good and .the . market very healthy.
Cows and holfors were active- and In de
mand at good , steady to nrm prices nnc' '
the offerings changed hands early. Good
fat bulls sold In about the same notchs at
yesterday and there has been very little
change on that kind of stuff this week ,
Feeder bulls are no.t . quite as good sllers
as they were a fe.w dayrf ngo , the markel
being a little easier on that kind. Veal
calves sold at llrm prices. KooJ cnlvss golns
nt $8.75.
There was very Httlo hero in the way ol
stockers and feeders and the market was
without new feature of Importance. Some
good thin cattle sold .at $4.90 , which was as
high as that kind of cattle would have sold
any time. While there is considerable In-
rjulry for thin cattle > rom the country , there
does not appear to 'b ' ! any very pressing de
mand for fleshy feeders. Representative

IIOC1S Under the InlliiPiico of lowr re
ports from other markets the market at
this point opened a Hiado to 5c lower and
closed fully 5o lower. Thu early market
was fairly active and the bier bulk of the
hogs sold In ecod suason. Attor the morn
urgent orders were tilled nd after Chicago
reported the close 5u lower , with sornu
hoes uiiHold , the market hero becumo vt-ry
dull. Sellers did not llko to make the con
cession nnd buyers were Indifferent. They
would take the late hogs at .rojJS.S1 , but
It was almout impossible to get any more :
than M.57 > .4.
It will liu noted from the table of avcrago
prices nbov that the gain made yesterday
was lost and a little more , nnd nho that
the nuirkot Is a Htrong Be- lower than a
week ago , which was thu high point of the
month to date. U will also bu noted that
the receipts have betn Iftrjje as compared
with previous wtelts , showing the orrei-tH
of the Improvement In country roads and
the comparatively good prices prevailing.
