JFor the week re- ceipts foot up about 32000 head or some 1,600 head more than last week and 7,600 Head more than for the corresponding week last year. In point of quality the offér- ings have been very desirable most of the time lately and buyers have had very little to complain of on this score. Prices have been more or less uneven throughout the week and at the close are from 10 to ¢ lawer than s week ago. Most of the de- cline has been on the plain, heavy and unfinished cattlo as all Classes of buyers have been discriminating against this class ock, while the desirable, light and handy welght grades have been |n good re- quest right along and are not selling much lower than a week ago. Notwithstanding the very liberal receipts for the week the proportion of cows and heifers has been comparatively ~emill throughout and with & vigorous demand from both local packers and outside buye: the market has been lu very satisfacto shape from start to finish. The more de- sirable grades are melling perhaps a shade tronger than & week ago, while the medium and common kinds have been stow sellers at all times, although values are substan- tially the same as at the close of laat week. Veal calves have remained steady all week, while bulls, stags, etc., have de- veloped some strength Business in stockers and feeders has been comparatively light right along. There has been considerable inquiry for the de sirable light and medium welght grades and these have remained firm throughout The demand for the heavier grades has been rather indifferent and most of the of- ferings of this kind have sold to the Killers at better prices than the feeder buyers would pay. A very good clearance has been made for the week.

Shippers got busy for the | tirst {ime in two weeks and bought almost a fourth of the hogs on sale. Their orders called for good, smooth butchers, however, and common mixed lots were not wanted. Many shipments that were bought on out- side ‘orders looked to be just about a dime higher, while packers' “droves averaged barely’ & nickel better than yesterday. There was not very much activity to trade at any time and it was well along in the morning before all of the pens had been emptied. A large share of recelpts sold at $9.000 910 as compared with yesterday's bulk of $8.96@9.06. Tops reached $9.20 as compared with yesterday's high sales of $9.15. Raceipts for the week afford the only bullish feature of the trade. The supply shows a decrease of 13,000 head under last week's run and a loss of 21,000 head as compared with the official count of the same week last year. Every other condi- tion was wildly bearish at the openink, however, and prices suffered the largest single decline recorded at this point in many months. Some reaciwn occurred during the last three days, but current values still show a loss. of about 4ic as compared with last week's close. Representative saies No Av. 8h.

For the week there has boen no materal change In supply as compared with last week's run, but the tone to demand has been uncertain throughout. More or less strength Ceveloped at the opening and at the close, the same as last week, but the trend to mid-week trade was decidedly slumpy and the net loss or gain of little consequence. Generally speaking, prices on all classes of stock are about in the same notches as a week ago.

Cholce, handyweight lambs_ still in the fleece are also favorites with buyers owing to their high dressing | averages possible on strings of this de- scription. = The big end of recelpts, of course, consisted of lambs, prices on good shorn’ ranging from $8M000.20 with det sirable shipments of wooled going at $.40 10.00. 9 Otterings of spring lamba thus far this season have been notably scarce. A few small bunches have been received, but the total number too small and shipments too scattered to afford anything like an ade- quate test of valu holce spring lambs today remains the THE FORTUNES That Were Made On $tock Bonuses Write for our cireular “The Wiseacres, The Professional Experts, The Overs Conservatives, The False Prophets and How Fortunes Have Been Made Not- W".’Illnlldlllll the Activities of These Ever-present Gentlemen.” It contains a very interesting bit of financial his- tory and tells of a remarkable oppor- tunity for small investments to grow into something big in a going, pros- perous, dividend-paying, industrial en- terprise of splendid record and still brighter future—an enterprise which is the leader in its line.
