Wednesday being the heaviest u.i, wi;n iwenty-i-icnt cars on sale. The market Is in need of some good, liberal runs, which would not tend to iniko prices any lower. The most of the receipts were killers and nothing like enough feed ers wero offered. Tho demand was strong for everything and the market at the close was In very satisfactory condition. Tho general mantel for the week is about a qjsrter higher all around, with lamb and yearling selling Kte higher.
