GENERAL COMMENTS:

   It was a winning day for the cattle complex as both of the contracts closed
higher, and even the spot June live cattle contract scored a new contract
higher. Still no cash cattle trade has developed. May corn is down 1 1/4 cents
per bushel and May soybean meal is up $0.90. The Dow Jones Industrial Average
is down 155.09 points.
