Although "tire fight is still on,"
as more than one or two ch'ovcns
and shippers remarked this morning
still there were not wanting signs
of a somewhat relaxed condition from
?he ' s rained relations" between dro-
vers and packers at the euid of last
week. All were 'looking forward to a
possible settlement of the difficulty
as the outcotno the drovers' meet-
ing to beheld in the Temple Build ng
in the afternoon. In the meantime
there was a little more activity in
business, -and both packers and the
Independents, as they have been called
were doing business,.thougli many of
the drovers refused to sell to .tire
packers under the new rule.
Another evidence of a belief that
the trouble was nearing an end, was
the oomparat'iyely heavy run of over
80 cars, showing that ,the drovers
are not exactly all of ono mind in
the matter of holding back cattle.
A more certain feature ,of the sit-
uation was the fact that prices all
round were from 150 so 25e higher
than lasts week. It is possible, how-
ever, and indeed very likely that the
market would have been, higher had
