CATTLE About twenty cars of cattle ar
rived lioro liuliv. tint thev were mostly
consigned direct to local packers, and as
a result the mnrket was not tested, r or
tho week the supply has been of liberal
proportions, a good gain having been majle
over tho same week of last year, as tne
receipts nbove will show. There Is, how
ever, a slight decrease as compared with
lasi wcck.
There have been comparatively few corn
fmt aleer lni lnileH In tho recelnts. and
ns tho demand was nctlve, anything nt all
desirable sold readily nt higher prices.
Tho advance for the week amounts to low
16c. Tho commoner kinds and half fat
stuff have not shown much chungc and
toward the last of tho week they wero
rather neglected, but still prices arc about
steady for tho week. Good to choice grades
are quotable at $6.00416.60: fair to good,
$5.7536.00 and common kinds from $5.ia
down.
The cow market has also been nctlvo
nnd prices on good kinds have Improved
a little. For tho week tho ndvanco amounts
to lCfJCOc. Tho common stuff, which has
made up the bulk of the receipts, has not
shown much change, though prices are
probably a little higher. Tho bulk of the
cows nnd heifers coming on the mnrket
are selling from $2.75 to $3.25, though choice
kinds sell from $3.25 to $3.75, while a good
bunch of cornfeds would probably bring
not far from $4.75.
Bulls, calves nnd stags may be quoted
Just about steady for the week.
There has been an active demand all tho
week for good to choice stockers and feed
ors. heavvwelehtH showing oualltv and
also prime yearlings aro fully steady for
the week. Dehorned cattle In particular
have sold well. The best cattlo are selling
from $3.90 to $1.25. The commoner kinds have
been rather neglected and toward the close,
of tho week It was hurd to find a buyer
for the undesirable grades and prices eased
off a little.
Although the bulk of the receipts has
been mnde up of western rangers, tho offer
ings of beef grades of steers have been
rather limited. The demand was active
and prices for the week hnve Improved on
the better grades 10$jl5c Choice cattle ore
selling from $4.25 to $5.10 and fair to good
from $3.75 to $4.25 and the common kinds
from $3.75 down. Cows arc also lOSi'-'Oc
higher for the week and the best grades
arc quoted at $3.253.85. Good stockers and
feeders are steady for the week and others
rather slow. Deslrablo feeders nrc selling
from $3.75 to $4.25. Stock heifers of good
flesh aro also about steady and are worth
from S2.76 to $3.10. The common kinds nio
a llttlo lower. Both Htock heifers nnd steer
calves aro tuny sjc lower ror 1110 wcck.
The steer calves are selling from $3.75 to
$1.20 ana tno neuers are worm rignt

HOGS For a Saturday recelnts of hoes
tndav were fairly liberal and as nrlces at
oiner points were an quoiea a umo lower
the market at this point opened a shade
lower than yesterday. Tho first sales wero
mostly nt $5.70, but before many had
changed hands It became evident that
packers had liberal orders and as a result
sellers held their droves at hlcher nrlces.
After the first round the bulk sold at $5.70
tfj'o.72V4 anu ns me morning navnncen tno
maraei iook on more uic unu gradually
grew stronger. On the closo hogs sold
Inrcely at Sa.7214SlC.75. so that the der.llnn
of tho morning was fully regained and tho
closo could be said to be strong ot yester
day's nrlces. The bulk of all the sales

$5.90.
Fnr the week the sUDnlv of hoes h,u

and a gain Is also noted over the cor
responding week of Inst year. The de
mand at this point was active and as tho
tendency of prices was downward the mar

week. Thursduy proved to bo the low day
of the week, when the average cost was
$5.67. Thn last two days prices Improved
a trifle, so that the week closed with a

that Is needed fioni now oil, In normal
weather and under those conditions they
have no tear but what trade will go far
ahead of any previous car.
So fur as luivancc orders are concerned,
no one has any complaint to offer. Travel
ing men are selling more prlug goods thiin
ever before this e.iriy in tun seusun, wh.clt
would indicate nu unusual iimuuut ut con

There havn bieu no mure than the urual

Soft Simnr n Mimic l.onrr.
The grocery market has not shown any
sensational change during tho week. Thero
nre, however, a tow fluctuations which nro
worthy of notice. Among these Is tho nd
vanco and decline In tno price of oft
sugar. Tho lirsl of the week prices wme
advanced 6 points, but later on tho market
eased off 10 points, so that the market at
the close of the week Is about l-16c lower
on softs than nt the oloic of the provlouj
week, Grnuulnted sugar- did not chango
during the weik.
Tho coffee market still continues In a
very strong position, owing lo the fact that
report.! from Santos arc very discouraging.
It Is claimed that the crop has been seri
ously damaged by prolonged dry wentluf
nnd as a result the tendency Is to ndvanco
prices. The market Is now about Uc h.ghor
than it was n week ago und during Mm
Inst ten days prices have udvanced fully
lite.
In farinaceous goods thero has not been
much change. Oatmeal, however. Is n
little firmer and beans nud practically all
other lines remain unchanged.
Dried fruits are selling rather slowly nt
the present Mm?. This Is doubtless owing
to the warm weather, which always ma
terially decreases the consumption, but
with tho advent of cotd weather the de
mum! will doubtless Improve niutcrlally and
somo nro of tho opinion that It might re
sult In slightly higher prices.
The only change noticeable In the market
for ennned goods Is the continued tendency
toward higher prices on tomatoes. Holders
nre confident that udvances ure bound to
take place In the near future nnd consa
qtiently uie very Indifferent sellers.
Tho ropo marKet Is higher than It was a
week ago. This applies to both sisal nnd
Manila, the latter having advanced a full
cent per pound. Other staplo lines of
groceries have not changed enough to bo
worthy of mention.
Light Demand for Dry Goods.
Dry goods Jobbers have been having
rather a quiet time during the last week.
Very few merchants have been on tha
market and mall orders have also been
rather light. The cause of this Is. of course,
found In the unseasonable weather, which
retards trade In tho country. Merchants
have not sold enough of their winter goods
as yet to break up their stocks, conse.
ciuently they nre not buying more until
there aro signs of their present supply be
ing exhausted. Thero Is not much com
plaining being done In tho country, how
ever, as they feel certain that It Is only a
question of tlmo when business will be as
brisk ns they could desire.
The way In which merchants nro placing
their orders for spring goods Is taken ns
an Indication that they have confidence tn
the future. Traveling men are very much
pleased with the amount of stock they have
sold this early and ure very hopeful for
the future.
The market continues In a very strong
position und particularly Is that true of
cotton goods. Although there have been
no great changes in colored cottons, the
market Is In a very strong, healthy condi
tion. Lending lines of denims, ticks and
shirtings have been advanced silghtiv dur
ing tho Inst few days and the mills am
said to bo well sold up. Unbleached cottons
have not been nuvnncea, mil nienclien

Hardwire Market Unchanged.

however, Jobbers sny that they have dono
