NEW YORK. Dec 6. COTTON A mutual
truce oxlsted In today's market between
bulls and bears, whllo tho speculative pub

activity. Influences nt work wero not of
vital Importance and left no room for tho
formation of new conclusions. No offort
was mado by either sldo to dominate prices,
which, accordingly followed a narrow rut.
The market opened steady, with Initial
sales showing an advance of 2 points to n
decllno of 1 point. For n long time there
was barely 1 point additional variation and
up to midday the market was sadly neg
lected by tho trade In general. In tho early
afternoon the situation wus brightened iv
litt'.o by room buying and scattering pur
chases for outside account, on which prices
Improved several points. Spirited trading,
however, at no tlmo obtained, and at most

or cattlo hero today for n Tluirsdnv. hut
the market Wan In o-nml nhnn.i nn Iia l,ll..
minis 01 00111 iui cuitio ana reeders. Tho
cornfed steers were In good domand If the
quality wns satisfactory and they sold at
good steady prices ns compared with yos-
leruay. -ino naif fat stuff, howevor. was
un Biow saio as ever ana sellers in som
cases experienced some difficulty in gettlnj
what they called steady prices. That kin,
or cattle, though, sell very unevenly. A
uuncn 01 cnnice steers ana lienors sold as
high as $j.40, which looked fully stcnJy
nii 1110 wuy came nave ocen selling 01
late.
Thero wero about thirty mra nf stuff
on salo today, and tho market on tho better
Miuuta 01 cows or nouers was steady and
tho demand In good shape. Thero wero a
good, many common cows offered nmi m
such tho market was mean. Buyers bid
very unoyenly on them, but as a general
thing sellers had to take less money for
mem man tney would nave brought yes
terday. Thn market on that r.luai nf (-nttl.
was rather draggy.
ine supply ot gooa reeders was father
limited today, nnd as biivern all wnnin!
a few they paid good strong prlcns In prder
to get them. The domand from tho coun
try, while not heavy. Is fully equal to the
supply bo far as choice cattle are con
cerned. Tho less desirable grades are hold
ing Just about steady, nnd the some may
be said of stockers and calves. Stock cows
and heifers aro also showing very little
change. There Is a good demand for stock
bulls and the market Is good and strong.
There ware not manv wemtern rgtim
cattle on sale, though several cars of Texas
stuff urrlved which sold at Just about
steady prices. The western cow stuff and
feeders also sold In Just about yesterday's
notches, unless It be the cholco heavy
weight feeders, which sold a little stronger.

SHEEP Thero was a lleht run hnrn Inrinv
nnd receipts woro composed mostly of
lamps, a cnolce nuncli of nntlve fed Iambs
sold as high as $5.25, or about steady, but
mo western lamns sold generally a dime
lower. Tho market was not particularly
active, an packers were not anxious for
supplies, xnero wero not enough fat sheep
on salo to mnko 11 test of the market. A
bunch of native ewes brought $3.60. which
Is probably us much as thnv would imv
brought yesterday. Aside from that string
thero was very little good stuff on sale
and tho market could bo called steady to a
llttlo easier.
There were very few feeders offered in.
day. but such as wero put on salo met
with ready sale at steady prices.
