The effect of the continued downward movement in cattle prices during the last month is beginning to be shown in the general lowering of retail beef prices In Indianapolis. Day by day, the local butchers have hammered the market and on no kinds has the decline been greater than the grades that are killed for the

local trade.

During all of the last week there has not been a satisfactory market, as viewed by the man who had cattle to sell. Receipts have been light—1.400 less than last week ami little more than half the number during the corresponding week of 1901, but this fact has had no Influence since the quality has degenerated, until the class of stock coming has been much below the standard. Buyers Take an Advantage. Buyers have taken advantage of this opening and have greatly exaggerated this phase of the market, becoming more exacting than ever. No finished heavy cattle have been received at the Indianapolis market, and the proportion good enough to sell above $6.50 has been small-

er than usual.

It has been another heavy week for feeding weights, and last week's speculations as to what so large a movement of this
