Thai of Itself was a bear argu ment , but In addition to that was the ex pectation of a very large run and a much lower market at Chicago for Wednesday. Kansas City reported a slow and weak inur- k < t , which nl o had its influence upon the trade here. The result of these bear In- llnencps was that buyers started out bid ding as a rule lOc lower on be-f steers , that Is , 15fi20f lower than last week. Sales men naturally worked hard Io hold up the market , which made the irnde rather sloxv , no that It took n. long time to effeet a clear ance. In the end the catlle changed hands , but the general market would have to be quoted Offline loxvcr for the two days this wek , the tidy little cattle selling at the least iiecllne. Tlie market on cow. * nnd heifers was steady to a litlle loxver In some cases. ISuy- trs felt that they ought to buy coxv stuff lower on account of the sharp break on fat cattle , but at the same time there was such a good demand and so fexv cown and heifers on snlo that they had hard work to force any concussion. Most sellers claimed to have .sold their cows and heifers at steady prices. Kut bulls were very slow , and it was no easy matter to get u buyer to look at them. Light stock bulls wire good sellers. Stockers sold as xvell as any time. In spite of the decline on fat steers. Some nice yearling stuff brought J3.10. The offerings xvere ol very moderate proportions , and the supp y on sale was soon fxhausted. Rep resentative pales : BEKK STBBRS. No. Av. Pr. No. Av. Pr. No. Av.
