Chicago especially baa heavy receipts, re porting sti.imu head early, a-ith Kansas City repornng Hi.lsHi head. The local run. how ever, wa not burdensome. The heavy re ceipt naturally created a very weak feel ing in the market and Chicago started the downward movement by reporting the opening there a J tup lie lower and report from ilher selling points acre not very much more encouraging. Under the influence of a good local de mand and a moderate supply of good beef steer tlie market at tni point did not show much change, in spite of the lear re port from other swilling point. Strictlv Oeahrable fcilier were generalrv quoted a ful:ic steady with last week. Mediuni kind mere a liuie alow, but eUU mere wa na very greavt change. Not far from ninety car of oow and heilers were on sale. The better grade and also the canner grade seemed to be free seller at fully steady price.
