This brings the total for the four days up to 21,700 head, the largest for some weeks back and larger than a vear ago. With so many cattle on sale It was not surprising that the market on fat cattle should show more or less weakness. Here and there a salesman who happened to have handy light cattle, just the kind that packers wanted, thought that he did not have to take off very much as compared with yesterday. On the other hand heavy cattle were safely 10c lower and most salesmen were quoting the general market as slow to 10c lower than yesterday. Cows and heifers were also slow sellers and they were generally quoted around a dime lower. The. trade, as was tne case with beef steers, was slow and it was late in the morning before very much business had been transacted. The supply of stockers and feeders was not overly large and considering how late It Is In the week the market was in a lair condition. As a rule desirable kinds did not show very much change as compared with yesterday, but still the tendency was little weak, as the country demand was not too urgent ouotatlons on cattle: uooa to choice beef steers, $6.0'6.30; fair to good beef steers, $5.7fl36.00; common to fair beef steers. $5 00r5.70; good to choice cows and heifers, $4.70fffi.60; fair to good cows and heifers, $4.30y4.70; common to fair cows and heifers, $3.25ia'4.30; good to choice stock ers and feeders. $5.60i 00; fair to good stockers and feeders, $5.0006 50; common to fair stockers and feeders. $4 .2005.00; stock heifers, $3.75(34.60; veal calves, $4.00U.t0; bulls, stags, etc.. $4.006.26.

COFFEE Ruvers of sheeD and made some amends this morning for slumpy prices Tuesday and Wednesday. A general advance of 10c was allowed, lim ited supplies and an active demand pro ducing reaction. Clearance was early and complete. Handy grades of sheep attracted Keenest competition and sold on much the same basis as similar offerings at last week s clone. Ewes, fairly good, moved at $4.80, Indicating an extreme quotation of $4 60 on something strictly choice. Wethers reached $4.60, a sale that crowds the limit in this branch Of the market. Yearlings were popular and went at a creditable spread of $5 on. $5.15 and $5.35. Heavy and rough yearlings moved at small margins under the $5.00 mark. Ijimbs are closing around a quarter lower for the week, Monday's advance, re cent declines and today's strength enter ing Into this comparison. Choice lambs, still in the fleece, would probably sell at or near $5.90 at present, while actual aalea on Monday reached $6.20. Various weights of good lambs brought $5 66, $5.75 and $5.80 this morning, the latter figure being high price. Shorn strings are meeting with much better treatment than during recent weeks and the right kind of shorn lambs are easily quotable at $5.25. Summarized, local trade this week was very uneven and generally bearish. Receipts have been reasonably large and outside conditions more or less discouraging. It is usually admitted, however, that bearish phases of the market are rather temporary In their nature and It Is freely predicted that the balance of the season's business will have a healthier appearance. Quotations on sheep and lambs: Good to choice lambs, $5.60''(5.90; fair to good lambs $5.255.60; handy weight yearlings, $5.00? 6 26: heavy yearlings, $4.61i4n5.(J0; good to choice wethers, $4.3fxtN.66; fair to good wethers. $4.004.35; good to choice ewes, $4.2."4.50: fair to good ewes. $3.904.25; sheep culls to feeders, $3.00(3.75.

The other stocks sfter a feeble ad vance at the opening fell back to approxi mately yesterday's figures. The tone was good all day. however, and prices did not yield In nplte of lack demand from any quarter. The Mexican situation was hardly a mar ket influence today and Mexican railway shares, although they did not recover yes terday's loss, declined no further. The call of the national comptroller of the currency for a statement of conditions as of last Thmsday Is expected to show a marked contraction in loans over that of some two monthe ago.
