The removal of the ulations on ed to -day by uarantine tie receipt of Cabo tttle a255s mcars from Canada, which included some 15 cars of butcher's stook and 10 cars of stockers and feeders. The fire- venture in about eight years of Can; +e cattle on this mar- ket naught a b, : day. Although the total "were about te, ars lees than on Monday of last week the g: neral market was inclin- ed to be stagnant. The attendance of out- side buyers was decidedly light, while local butchers and wholesale slaughterers were limited purchasers. One car of butcher's Canada steers, 1,183 lbs, sold at $4.25, a few lots of lightweight at $3 90 to $4.00 and come not so good at 83,65 to $3.85. A couple of oars of Canada heifers brought $3.75, mixed butchers' 83.45 to $3.62 and butchers' oows $2.60 to $2.75, There were ten cars Canadas in the stocker and feeder supply and about an equal number of na, tivee. In this department values were fully 25e off from last .1onday's values. .A number of beat feeders, which showed some flesh, sold to butchers, but trade was un- satisfactory. One load of feeders from Koehler Bros. of Cayuga, Ont., averaging 866 Ibe, sold at $8.75, the top price of the 3.35 o $3ay, .50. he biik of A few Canadas stockers, of at which there was only a moderate snooty, sold at $3 35; some Coarse stockers sold; at $3.50 to $3.70. On the whole and at the close the conditions in this department was the re- vere° of satisfactory, but there was a good clearance of stock and not many .cattle re- mained unsold at the close. It was just in between time for the feeder trade and+it ,is quite likely that a couple of weeks later will see a very much better market.
