out of line with the low rates prevailing for

SHEEP About tho only ne
to tne sneep ana lamp trade today waa
the ability of saK-imen to dlnposn of stock
on tlie "tripe'' order. Kresh receipt were
barely no.inal and several ahlptiients con
UsttKl of feeder, but four or five load of
holdover were on hand, mostly shorn
lambs, and as one of the talent remarked,
"The stuff la selling for whatever wt can
get for it and prices are too uneven to
get a line on values." Quality considered,
most sales appeared to be Just about steady
with yesterday, but demand was very quiet
and trade dull throughout.
The situation In the sheep barn this week
has been a hazy aftalr from start to finish.
Pupplles were limited, quality fair to poor
nd demand indifferent. Inquiry Tuesday
and Wednesday waa fairly active and the
trend of prices somewhat higher on the
better grades, but Monday's slump and
yesterday's weakness more than offsets
any advance. Handy weight shorn lambs
are closing fully steady wtlh last Friday,
but the ordinary run of stock Is selling
ail. the way from a quarter to Wo lower
thn a wek ago.

HOGS Some early
the hog yard Uxl
budness waa done In
morning at figures
quo t ably strong. L.tght lots sold on this
basl la Dotn divisions, but the demand
was neither aotlva nor broad. After ship
pers had filled most of their orders, gen
erally steady prices prevailed, the bulk of
receipts selling In much the same notches
as on yesterday. Movement was reasona
bly active and a very fair clearance was
made before midday.
Some weakness was evident during late
rounds, but puckers' efforts to cheapen
their droves wer of llttie avail, much of
the late trade appearing to b but llttie.
If any lower, than at the opening. Receipt
were luuy ncrmai, a large snar of the
run going at $9.36(J9 40; steady with yester
day's bulk. Top dropped to 19.60, a nickel
lower.
For th fiv days this week, supplies
have been liberal, but the demand has
been fully adequate. Price have been In
fluenced largely by th trend of provi
sion values and while there has been some
weakness at times, closing sales are gen
erally steady as compared wtlh last week's
close.

Wool Market.
BOSTON, May 20-WOOL The Com
mercial Bulletin will say of the wool mar
ked tomorrow:
The outlook In the wool market is not
favorable, for goods are not stilling satis
factorily and it is questioned whether light
weight fabrics opening during wie next two
mouths will move in sufficient volume to
etart up the worsted industry. Apparently
the bottom has been reaohed on wool val
ues and they are on an equitable basis, but
consumers will not operate other than In
a conservative way except In Isolated ln
stanceu. About 600,000 pounds of Oreirnn
staple were sold this week at tl2yi;:'c.
ecoured, and Wyoming sold at 6.'i'titi4c. Ohio
and Michigan quarter-blood and three
eighths changed hands fa.lrly well at 29'u30c.
With these exception business lu limited,
nnd no one seem to know Just what wool
Is really worth today. The shipments of
wool from Boston to May 19, inclusive,
were 77.080,271 lbs., agaimrt 103,600,80 lbs. for
the same time last year. The receipts to
May 19, Inclusive, were K9.493.355 lbs., against
1 S3, 644, Gil lbs. for the same period last year.
