GENERAL COMMENTS:

   The livestock complex rounded out Monday mixed with both the live cattle and
lean hog contracts needing more support, but the feeder cattle contracts
charged higher through the day's end. New showlists appear to be to be slightly
higher in Nebraska and Colorado and higher in Kansas and Texas. May corn is
down 3/4 cent per bushel and May soybean meal is up $0.10. The Dow Jones
Industrial Average is up 301.68 points and NASDAQ is up 280.85 points.
