CATTLE~Re large this morning, wit] tie were being about on r Thus days foot up head, as against 10,307 for the ast week and 11,000 head for the entirely of killers, very few feeders being here today, or, for that matter, on any other day so far this week. Such liberal recelpts were in themselves a sufficient bear influence to create A weak market had there been nothing else to affect prices. As it was other selling points were reporting Iiberal receipts, poor demand and decidedly lower markets. Tt {s hardly ne ry to add, in view of what has been sald regarding general conditions, that the market here on killing cattle was slow and lower right from the outset. Tn fact it was well along toward midday before very much business had been transacted. Stockers and feeders were the first cat- tle to sell and as there were very few here and as speculators have been able to clean up everything in_ sight on previous days this week, they were all eager for fresh supplies. Thus it happened that the few stockers and feeders in sight met with very ready sale at fully steady prices. When the trade on beef steers finally opened it was on a ba of 10c lower than While the cattle were pretty ed up before the close. It took until midday or after to efrect a clearance, Cows and heifers were aiso lower, sell ing in many cases as much as 10c und vesterday's prices. Some certain kinds that buyers fust happened to want did not show quite thet much loss and in quite a good many Instances salesmen quoted the cow market as only slow to 10c lower. Cholce heifers sold up to $.65.

Seven cars, however, were carried over from yesterday, bringing the sum total of offerings up to thirty-three cars. Most of the arrvals consisted of lambs, with a fair percentage of ewes and wethers. A couple cars of clipped lambs were carried over from yesterday and three cars_of el wethers were included among fresh receipts. The quality of the supplies was pretty good on an average and, while salesmen did not anticipate higher valuee, most of them looked for a steady market. Prices, however, were not able to hoid up under the receipts and buyers started out bldding from 10c to 16c lower, Bales- men held off for a time and a sluggish market resulted. When sellers and buyers tinally got togéther on a trading basis, the general market appeared to be 10c, and in some cases 1bc, lower than yesterday. Even at the decline, buying talent did not ap- pear to be especially anxious for supplies and some salesmen were complaining that they had not yet had an inquiry. On the opening markeét a bunch of pretty decent western ewes moved at $5.75, cholce Mexican lambs that would have brought $8.00 yesterday sold for §7.%, and a load of prime Mexican wethers were good enough to_make §6.40. on sheep and lambs: Good to $7. .90, fair to godd lambs, .65; go0od to cholce ht yearlings, g, :) ooood‘ to a::lco e l\{; yur#n 3 .
