COMMENTS:  Another quiet day in cash cattle country, with trade at a 
near standstill (just a handful reported in the North at $190). A few bids 
were noted in parts of Nebraska at $190/$295. Asking prices of around $192 to 
$194 were reported in the South, but are still not established in the North. 
Significant trade volume will likely be delayed until Thursday or later.
