Cuicaao, Nov. 15.—(Special Telegram to the &.]—CAtrLE—There was little or nothing new or particularly interesting in the market to-day. Receipts are rapidly on the increase, but so far that fact has not in- fluenced valuos to the extent expected, yot there is no doubt that if the run continues like the past two days prices must go lower. Among the receipts to-day were & large num- ber of good and useful natives, but really prime steers were scurce, although it would seem there was about all that buyers wanted. The demand for fancy cattle is quite limited. A small lot of fat stock show Herefords made $5.50, but there was not another lot among all the cattle on sale that would come anywhere near making that price. Texans and rangers were sclling about the same as on Monday.

Mr. Sully,who is understood to be on the bull side, says: “From now on Reading will be capable of taking care of itself. We have passed the time when bear onslaughts can affect the stock, 100,000 or more shares of which are held in Europe. The company’s earnings are simply enormous, but they do not surprise people Who went into the reorganization schicme knowi what thoy might ex- pect.

Continued heavy realizing proved too much for the bulls and about noon huyers appeared to have been filled up. St Panl moved sluggishly and the whole list weakened perceptibly, selling oft ety ent. Parties in the Reading pool bought Union Pacitic freely and reports were circulated that its earnings were large and it would muke a better showing. The last hour the general list became ragged, some of the active ones advancing sparingly, butat the close the Coalers were steady at the same prices as yesterd, The Vanderbilts and Grangers were steady, om»pv with North- western which advanced !5 per cent.

Cattle. There was a noticeable falling off in the receipts of cattle yesterday, there being only thirty-eight loads of fresh arrivals, as against eighty-one for Monday. The demand for good corn-fed cattle was good and the market on that kind of stock was a little stronger. Half- fat cattle, however, are not in as good request and there is an_inclination to neglect them. There was some inquiry for feeders, but the number sold was small, Hogs. The receipts were unusually heavy, there being 164 cars of fresh arrivals. The market opened fairly active at a decline of about 10e from Monday morning's prices, $4.40 being the top. Later the market gradually weak- cned a8 the receipts increased and closed about 10c lower. At the close the buyers would not offer over #4.254.30 for the best loads, and it was hard to get even the latter P There were sixteen loads left over unsold.

The manner in which the general delivery department of the Omaha postoftice is man aged is most distressingly annoying. It is considered by many to be an outrage upon the public. Al day long there are long lines of men and women waiting to get their mail. But one window is used, wherecas,two, three, or even more are necessary to take care of the business, There are two windows, one marked “A to L' and the other M to Z. The latter however is always closed and the entire flouting population of Omaulia must make their inquiries of the former. The rack containingl etters for general delivery is filled to its utmost capacity and it takes from one n minutes to look over those in each If one is fortunate cnough to place in the line he 1s in groat hes the window in thirty-tive there are often 100 persons in a moment in the Ken, i Memorial, 15c: Canton, ‘ules, 18¢; Leaming- bleached, Stey 2 is peculiarily men or transient visitor: p seems 1o e 10 reason why the M to " window shonld not be utilized, thus diminishing the waiting time by onc-half. The clerks arc not to blame. * They are overworked now and expe- dite business as rapidly as possible. What is needed is more are needed at ouce, ing to traveling The Watchmakers and Jewe Last night there was a very successful meeting of the akers and jewelers , at which were esentutives of Max Meyer, Ray- mond, Baumer, Huberman, Edholn & Aikin, Sams, Vin Cott und others, A, Mandel verg, of Max s was clected temporary charrman, of fuberman's, A committee, consist of Raymond’s: C.
