The inquiry from both local dressed beef men and shipping buyers was somewhat better this morning and while prices showed no particular advance, the tone to the trade was firmer and the move- ment more brisk than on yesterday. All | classes of buyers showed a decided prefer- ence for the fat light ana handy welght steers and they sold most readily, while heavy cattle, unless choice and well fin- ished, were parsed up by buyers until later. The general trade, however, was reagonably active and by the middle of the forenoon practically = everything had changed hands. As compared with a week ago prices are not over 10@lsc lower, the decline being most on the heavier cattle.

The ew cars of lambs and ewes on sale moved at quotably steady figures. The trade wi naturally active and everything In sight was put over the quibbling. Two cars of ambs, the king that sold yesterday at .75, brought the same price today. Clipped §ives maved at 87 and spring lambe at Light receipts each day this week has made it extremely difficult to call the ex- tent of the fluctuations In prices. Scarcity of wooled on a day when supplies were largely el or vice versa, has left the extent of the decline or advance of that day a matter of guesswork. While the market haa suffered no decline of any importance during the last few days, the feeling this week In sheep olrclen has been distinotly bearish. TAmited receipts, of course, have worked to the sellers' advantage and this is rgely responsible for the of the market at a high level. Herbert E Gooch Co.

The inquiry has been most marked for the light grades and they are selling just about as well as they were a week ago. On the other hand there has been all of a 10@lsc decline on the medium and common cows, although these are stil; selling ai high figures as com- pared with beef steers. Veal calves, bulls, stags, etc., were generally quoted as steady and a little stronger than they were toward the close of last week Business was very dull in stockers and feeders, as there were comparatively few on sale and the demand was confined to local traders principally. Good stuff of all weights has developed more or le: strength this week and values are 10@l5c higher than a week ago. although the vol- ume of business has been somewhat light and the strength due more to the meager offerings than to the increase in demand.
