Liberal receipts of cattle at all
the principal markets today turned
prices down. However, there was
active demand for beef in the east
and the weakness in live cattle is
81.85 thought to be only temporary.
69.00 Here prices were off 15 to 25 cents.
Hog prices steady. Fifty thousand
arrived in Chicago, and fairly lib
eral supplies elsewhere. Sheep
and Iambs were quoted weak to
25 cents lower. Demand was fair
ly active at the decline.
Today's Receipts
Receipts today were 14,000 cat
tie, 14,500 hogs, and 8500 sheep,
compared with 13,500 cattle, 12,500
sheep last week, and 16,800 cattle,
iy,Vi0 hogs and i3,auo sheep a year

, Beef Cattle
Liberal . receipts i together with
rather unsettled labor outlook
caused a weaker tone in the cattle
market. In most cases, prices

Hogs
Opening bids for hogs were 15
to 25 cents lower, but the buyers
were anxious for supplies, and be
fore many sales were made the mar
ket rallied to last week's closing
level. Actual sales showed the
market averaged steady. The top
price was $10.90, and bulk $10.00 to
$10.80. Pigs were fully steady and
in active demand. J. he top price
was $11.50. Prices for pork in the
East were advanced $2.00 to $3.00
a hundred pounds so that the hog
market is in a position to stand
liberal supplies. ( -
Sheep and Lambs
Sheep and lamb prices were weak
to 25 cents lower. After the
decline was established trade be
came tairiy active. nest nanay
weight lambs sold at $la00 to $10.25,
and ewes $5.50 to $6.00i Yearlings

rately, but the ordinary and com
mon kinds sold slowly. irices
were not quotably changed.
