Shippers Holding Back Sheep. tonlppers have shown during recent days that they resent any efforts of buyers to molest prices for sheep and lambs and because of this they have withheld supplies from the market for two days. None arrived either today or yesterday. Notwithstanding this the tone in the local market Is showing practically no change. Run recently was quite liberal and therefore killers are somewhat more independent than a few weeks ago.
