The best grades of corn-fed beeves suffered the most pronounced decline and the top for the week was 6.25 agninstll.OO fortius week before with quality about a staudoff. The close on Friday was stronger with 5 to lOt of the lost prestige regained and the decline is presumed to be about at a stopping point. One of the features of the week's offerings was the liberal per centage of Bhort-fcd cattle and, while there was uo especial dlscrl mlnatloa against that class of cattle, consign ers were disappointed with the re turns." The cow supply comprised many varieties, ranging from the weatli crU'iiton, cast off grand dams of the newly marticulated herds which pass current at around 2.00 per 100-weight to the tallow laden heifers that sold along with their brothers up to 5.35. All grades of females were received with the deference due the sex and the market closed a little higher on tlie week. Light stock cattle and the common class of feeders that had accumulated In the hands of traders during the previous week were closed out at very low prices and 17,200 head of cattle and calves went tothecountry during the week, as compared with 15,300 for the corresponding week last year. Good to choice feeders are still popular at steady prices but range buyers have withdrawn from the market and the common to me dium grades are lu very slack de mand. Southern cattle receipts during the week were but little above 4,000 and the lightest since last May, but as the federal "open season" Is now in force there will probably le many, cattle Inspected and moved north ward to pastures and feedlote. Southern steers showed some weak ness, In sympathy with the decline In natives but a load of fed Indians from Miami sold at 4.40 which was .nearly as much as they would have realized the week before. Range steers that averaged from 873 to 975 pouuds were taken largely at 3.35 to 3.75 and the poorer grades at all the way down to 2.40, while cow values ranged from 1.90 to 3.00.

Top heavies sold at .00 on Saturday , against 5.95 ou the Saturday before but the bulk of sales ranged from 5.30 to 5.85 as compared with a 5.50 to 5.00 bulk on the preceedlng Satur day.
