BROWNELL & STONE, Attorneys for Plaintiff. Receipts for the week at Portland stock yars have been; Cattle 2064; Calves, 81:. Hogs, 820; Sheep, 4096, and Horses 1. The cattle market has suffered a decllna since last Saturday and whi'.e not severe, It amounted to a quarr. Buyers could not be induced to bll over $8 for any quantity of choice steers. A faw picked from tbe lot sold at higher prices but the bulk was a $7.E0 to 17.75 affair. Half fat and poorly finished beef is a drug on the market, unless of feeder quality. DeBlrabls feed ;rs are selling freely at If, to 16.50. Hutcber stock ha been uneven and prloea ranged wide. Good rows at 17 and steers at tS. Hulls at 5 and calves at 19 are liberal quota tions in the cattla market. It was a difficult hog ffisrket to Judge. One short car sold Thursday for $9.60 and ono car of contracted stuff came Into the yardB Friday, but these were the only two at the un loading chutes on these days. Mon day's top sales were $9.30 and one load Tuesday "off cars" at $9.7. What the market would do In the event a rea sonable liquidation occurred and buyer bad a respectable hog spread Is hard to conjecture. Monday had the only receipts of the eek and the total waa extremely light. On the basis of majority of swine transactions the prices seem strong at $9.00 and $9.50 and demand firm. Mutton and lamb buyers furBlab ed tha only Interesting feature to the otherwlst draggy livestock market. Wether scales at $4.25, ewes at $3.85, and $4.00 and lambs at $5.25, created an active trade. Killers are not short on sheep bouse suplies, but they fancy tbe prime stuff evidently, which Is but a small proportion of the total receipta. Prices are considered steady.
