GENERAL COMMENTS:

   The livestock complex was able to close higher as traders poured a tick more
interest into the marketplace. New showlists appear to be mixed, higher in
Texas, but lower in Kansas and Nebraska/Colorado. December corn is up 4 1/2
cents per bushel and December soybean meal is up $8.30. The Dow Jones
Industrial Average is down 557.24 points and the NASDAQ is down 192.52 points.
