DTN COMMENTS:   The country is slow to start this morning, some asking 
prices are around $112 to $113 in the South and remain hard to find in the 
North. So far, no bids have been renewed this morning. Significant trade 
volume maybe delayed until Thursday or later. Beef cutouts are expected to 
be mixed with light to moderate box movement.
