The last shipments of Canadian cattle have reached the other side, but there are still some unsold. The sales during the week showed little, if any, improvement in prices, and little, if any, money was made, or is likely to be made, on those yet to be sold. Result of the one Hamburg shipment was made known last week, and it is not probable that the same men will repeat the experiment. The shipment was a small one, but large enough to lose the shippers $500. The small losses on boats sailing since the 1st of January is a topic of conversation about the exchange. The last month of the season is the most dan- gerous, and the small losses go to show what oan be done when the cattle are load- ed under proper supervision. The forma- tion of an exporter's association is looked upon as a necessity by shippers, as a move for protection from outside interests, and the big guns will carry their scheme into effect in the course of a few days. The local markets are dull and unsatisfactory to the drovers, and receipts do not appear mach above the average; but there are per- haps 25 per oent. more cattle coming for- ward than there is proper demand, and the quality is very bad. Large numbers were left over again this week, butchers filling their wants at low prices, and refusing to take more at any figure. At the G.T.R. yard, Point St. Charles, half a dozen oar - kyle were offered, and these were bought by speculators. Hogs are coming in freely, and $4.25 to 84.50 about represents the range of prices. The major portion of the business being the inside figure; lambs sold at about 4o. At the east end market 800 cattle, 200 sheep and lambs and 25 calves were offered. The best cattle sold at 31 to 4e, and medium 3c. The large offerings of inferior stook had no pall, some going at 20. but the bulk were unsold.
