important ones, has delayed the comple-

impossible to give tonight complete
summary CT the report. 1t is safe to say
that returns have been received from over
$40 packing peints, outside of Cincinnati,
Chicago, ST. Louis, Louisville, Milwaukee
and indianapolis. At these interior
points, which last season within about
10000 Of all the hogs packed of the six
cities named, the indications are that the
packing at the point which has closed, and
the estimates for the season at the others,
show falling off in numbers amounting
about 100000 compared with last sea.
son.
Definite conclusions regarding weights
have not been arrived at, but it appears
evident that the later packing has been
of an improved character as compared
with the earlier hogs, and there has been
some reduction in the amount of average
shortage in weights, as shown in tbe pre-
vious report. The hogs yet to come Sr,
ward are expected to average heavier
than for the corresponding portion Of last
season.
The packing at the six cities named is
reported at 1926, 900, to this date, and
the packing at all points to the last Of
December is approximately 100000,
against a similar number year ago. II
may be remarked that the returns giving

with parcels-passing from Broadway in'

tcr Wd5 MS uOSpiIaiiIy. 1niS was .
pre-smincnt grace which no one who
ever sat at the freside or table of our
deceased friend. could have failed to
observe and admire. He was public
spirited citizen, and did not fail to re.
spond to such calls as prompted
by benevolence, or which he regarded
as essential or important to the public
welfare.
He enjoyed more than Al average
allotment of success In business, a re-
suit attributable,in in large measure, to
his industry and sound judgment. AL
ways liberal he yet avoided aproAygate
style of living :-surrounded by every
comfort which his calling and condit-
ion suggested, he in no sense was the
patron of senseless extravagances. His
perfect and unaffected candor on all
occasions won the admiration of all
who came in contact with him, OF the
deep the irreparable, the inexpresslble
los. sustained by the family, the wife
and children, we cannot adequately
speak. Ut was in the relation of hus-
band and father particularly that the
graces of his ch1racte. the more ex.
halted traits of our nature showed con.
spicously. Devoted in his love, his
family were his household gods The
loving wife and children, all at home,
The freside joys and the routine Of
daily duties were to him the highest
sources of earthly bliss. His sweet
home was the abode of love, content.
ments and happiness.
In view of the great loss sustained
by the Association as we'll as by society
at large In the death Of our friend -
ReSolued; That whilst we cannot but
deplOre the death otone so beloved and
useful we bow ourselves submissiyely
to the affective dispensation, assured
that the Righteous Ruler of the Uni.
verse docth all things well.

Society, that this body has lost in the
death Of Mr.. DEAKENs one ofthe most
active, enterprising and useful mem.

at lage is to be measured in like de-
