SEE FRIDAY'S DAILY DIRECT SLAUGHTER CATTLE 
NEGOTIATED PURCHASES SUMMARIES BELOW

DTN COMMENTS:  A typically quiet Monday afternoon with bids and asking 
prices not established as of yet, significant trade volume will likely be 
delayed until Wednesday or later. New showlists appear to be slightly 
smaller in Nebraska/Colorado, and lower in Kansas and Texas.

Today's slaughter totaled 122,000 head, 2,000 more than last week, and 
6,000 greater than a year ago. Cattle futures closed moderately to mostly 
sharply higher on both live (up 32 to 125) and feeder (up 20 to 157) 
contracts. Beef cutouts are expected to close lower with light to moderate 
box movement.
