_Live Stock and Meats_
HEAVY RECEIPTS FEATURE WEEK’S LIVE STOCK BUSINESS.
Trend of Cattle Prices Decidedly Irregular--Hog Market Has Fairly
Healthy Tone.
(Chicago, East St. Louis, Kansas City, Omaha, and St. Paul.)
Receipts of live stock during the closing week of September were of
generous volume despite the fact that conditions in some departments of
the trade during the preceding week bordered on demoralization. An
increased proportion of trashy, light-weight cattle indicated that
producers were anxious to liquidate surplus holdings before stormy
weather sets in, while a corresponding decrease in receipts of corn-feds
suggested a decreased number of well-conditioned beef cattle in feeders’
hands.
Chicago’s cattle receipts for the week were the largest since January,
while the combined ten-market supply of about 242,300 cattle was
practically the same as the week previous but 41,000 short of the
corresponding week a year ago.
