THE nOG TRADE. 



The wet and nnfavorable weather of the pa^tweek has had 

 the effect of delaying operations in the packing business 

 It will be obserTed by out quotations that hogs are declining 

 in all the principal packing points. 



We heard t f a sale yerterday to a city packer of 1,000 head 

 to average 225 lbs, Ht $5 net. This figure cannot at present 

 be obtained, as the hog product is too low to justify the pack* 

 ers in paying such prices, and tbey will hold off until an 

 advance in the product takes place We quote the uffuring 

 price Btfady at $4 50 net.forhrgs aver*ging 200 fits. 



Thursday's New York Tribune says: 



Xhe few shnrp, frosty nights of the past v, eek have had a 

 tendency to sharpen the ap; etit" of poi k eater**; atany rate, 

 to quicken the propei siiies of buy< rs, and tbey have cum u 

 forward iu such uumbers that the bog merchants took courx 

 age and advan-ed their rates. The following are the pre- 

 sent quotntions; Best corn fed bogu 6c lb gioss; second 

 best, 5%@5%r; distillery hogs. 5i<i@5}^. 



Friday's St Louis papers say .- 



Abou 4,000 have been kil ed. up to this timf ; hot recf ipta 

 are hnrdly yet suflScient to even start our larger houses. 



A lot of 600 bogs, to average 20;i B), was boufrht at SJ^c, 

 to arrive by the Idth proximo. The weather continues loo 

 o en for packers; we quote the extreme range of prices at 

 $4 7o@5 75 net. Rec ipts are yet small — Scars ty railroad 

 yesterday. 



Tui-sday's Chicago Tribune says. 



The market for live hogs to-dny was not so buoyant, and 

 prices have on an average decliued fully lOs fchippers did 

 not take held veiy freely, and ibid enabled the puckers to 

 control the market. Lijdht bogs ecpecittlly were dull and 

 lower- sales verging from $3 90@4 Vi]/^ gn ss. Hca-y 

 hogs were less itepreased, but even these did not bring yes- 

 terday's prices — s-veral lots averaging i-bout 2 ft being 

 Bold Hs low as $4 20. Some chi ice lots, however, were sold 

 at |4 40(g)4 421^. 



Saturday's Cincinnnti Gazette says: 



Some ho. H were killed to-day. but as a genera' thing the 

 8upi)l.esare b(inK i <M over for sife weather. The market 

 at clo-enmy be quoted stesdy. at $5 50 for light to $5 76 for 

 first cliisslmga— $5 60 to $5 '6> the prevailing tigures for lots 

 averaging 190 to 201 ft Th demand, however, wa^ not act- 

 ive The mnjority of p;«ck rs have not quite made up their 

 minds to pay these prices. The receipts were nh )ut 6,00o 

 heail. In prnvinioos there was not mi.-cli done. Green hinis 

 moved off pretty fr. ely at 7^^Ca,i8c. New lard is quiet at 9% 

 @9%c. .Mefs pork is firm f.t .-1* for i Id. N -w nold for Feb- 

 n.ary at $14 6o Cld bacon is lirm at l'^@9]4, for shoulders

Mondny's Missouri Democrat says : 



St. Louis packers are rea<?y to contract for hogs delivered 

 here up £o December lot h. nt the following rates: $' 60 laet 

 for those aversging over 200. ft, iid 5 2.i lor hosts of ISO to 

 200 ft. As yet, only Sinill lots have ccm-^in. Ashcroft h is 

 killed some 3,000 head; Raybas rominenced on 2<M)head .-'at- 

 urilay, cit of 600 in th'-ir pens. But it is tooeatly and warm 

 fur a general commencement or receipt of large lots of fat 

 hogs.

NEW YORK CATTLE MARKET.— NOT. 16. 



General Remaiiks on he Market. — We have to report the 

 continued influx of «u over-supply of beef c-itt le, or cattle 

 brought here to be sold for beef, if anybody will buy them 

 assucb. Pome puicliMSes were jnje today and last week 

 at $Ui@812, and from that up to $25 ^ bead, by parties who 

 must be connected with the glue factories, for certainly no 

 one could think of i:ettiug salable betf utfrom between the 

 skin and bone« of some of the live carcasses < ffered and ac- 

 tu illv sold in the cattle yards. There may be some tun in 

 sendinK a '•< rove" of beasts to market and sellirg them for 

 $10 aud Maying $13 exoen-ies, but we cannot nee it. Aside 

 from these, however, there were many fair animals offered 

 to day, though none worthy to be ranked as piemium 

 bullocks. An unusual number of country buyers chanced 

 to come in. which helped to keep up prices to about laiit 

 w ek's figures and clear out the yards, with the exceptioti of 

 about 200. which Were unsod at sundown. An advance in 

 poik alfo helpedcut thecattle market somcv hat 



Milch cow , though arriving in modei ate numbers, are so

Pfices. — Taking the average of the fntire trao'-actionf of

It will be seen, that with a single exception, we have not 

 changed the selling rates for two weeks past. There is a 

 wide range in theprices— all the way from 4c tf^ lOc fi lb. 

 Very few sold at 10c: most buyers conceded that their best 

 beef would cost them oiily 9c®9}^c in the carcass, allowing 

 the h de, head fat and ro'igh tallow for the expense of 

 purchas ng ind killing. There was but a light busi' ess at 

 Albany for ea'tern mat kets, only about (00 head No cattle 

 are left over at that point this week, so far as we could learn.
