CATTLE As usual on S Saturday ths
receipts of cattle were so small that there
waa nothing to make a market or to make
a test of value. For the week receipts
have been quite liberal, shawtng consider
able gain over last week, bal still there 18
a slight shortage as compared with a year
ago.
The market on beef steers, owing to the
large supply, declined nulte sharply the first
of the week, and, although there was some
recovery later on, the market at the close
U still weak to 10c lower than the finish
last week. At the same time that prices
hsve hod an essier tendency, the trade In
alao been a little sluggish on most day
but. nevertheless, everything received has
been void. Considering the liberal receipts
the market, as a whole, has net been in
bad shape by any mean.
The market on cows snd heifers also
showed some weakness during the first
two dsys of the week, but later on, under
the Influence of free buying, they firmed
up until at the close they are steady to lOe
higher than one week ago. The movement
on cows and heifers on most days has
been reasonably active, the demand for that
kind of cattle being rather more brisk
then for ths higher priced beef steers.
Tt would seem as If the country had
made up Its mind all of a sudden to buy
stackers snd feeders, with the result that
the demand all this week has been very
t'l'td. While receipts have been large, they
rve been none too much to supply the
refinements of country orders. With such
free buying every day It la not surprising
that values gradually tended upward and
that they are now 10c3'l&c higher than last
week, 'tth practically everything in the
yards cleaned up.

CALVES.
HOOS Hogs were reasonsbly active this
rooming at an advance of 6c over yester
day's prices. Huers seemed to hsve llbvial
orders, and while they have been Inclined
for some time back td fight against every
advance, sliil they were forced to pay the
prlcea and hogs today touched the 7 mark.
The general run of the hugs sold largely at
68 TtXo.i 90.
The receipts Of hogs this week hsve been
quite liberal, showing up in fairly good
nape a compared with the very heavy
run of laat week and allowing a very large
gain over the record of a year ago. Prices
