ADDINGTON YARDS.
• THIS DAY. [Per " Stab's " Pigeon Express.! j There were heavy supplies in all depart- ' ments, but the attendance was not large, and there was no spirit in the market — in fact, it was declared to be the worst market since 1878 j it certainly was the ; worst for the last nine years. , j Pat Cattie were present in numbers ' exceeding the demand, and last . week's priceß were maintained with difficulty. Daiby Cattle met a fair inquiry at about late rates* i Pat Sheep.— An utter absence of demand, and a sharp fall in prices from the opening of the sale. Two-tooth freezing cross-breds sold at Ib, and very useful twotooths at 6s. The sale is proceeding. j Pat Lambs also suffered a fall, amounting to quite a shilling from last waek a rates. , , i Store Sheep were a very large entry, but there were few buyers, and though concession were offered by vendors very few lines changed hands. _ .j. « Pigs were in good supply, but the demand was equal to clearing the market at an average of 3£d all round. i
