CHICAGO LIVE STOCK

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-iSpeclal Telegram to
THE BEE. I-CATTLE-Th general market
was quiet this morning. The fresh receipts
were only half as large as on yesterday, and
the sellers wanted better prices, but there
were good many cattle left from yesterday,
and the common to medium were in more
than ample supply. Sales of good to choice
cattle were, however, more readily made,
and prices were In some cases 5(0l0c higher
There might nave been an advance of
SOC per hundred and then many
cattle would have lost money, 50 the sell
ing interest did not have much to rejoice
over. Choice beeves, 81. lO@i,7O; medium 10

bulls and mixed, $l5J03.l5; bulk, s. $500
$50: ToXas-fed steers 81 500D3.65.
Hods-The falling off in the run, as in the
case of cattle, does net seem to have the
same effect as values were again 5Gl0c
lower, but at the decline there was n lair de-
mand. When the bulls and bears in the city
gore and claw each other until life is eX-
tinct then the board Of trade barons may get
II into their heads that prices are about
down to bedrock, but at present
$1,000 for pork. The bulk of the sales to-day
fol- mixed were around about Si75. When
the lot had good butcherweght top and

| year shows very favorable results, and it
caused some shorts TO cover. The dealings
| throughout the list were confined TO the pro-
| fessionals who trade for eighth and quarter
| turns. The commission people were doing
comparatively nothing, but seem 10 take
more hopeful view of the situation. The
immediate course of the market depends
upon the result OF the presidents meeting,
now being held in Chicago. One significant
feature OF the market a. present is the alb
sence OF any inclination on the part of the
bear Spectators to carry their operations
into the bond market. This department Of
the stock exchange is active, and the opinion
was expressed by one OF the oldest bond
houses IN the street, that no such demand for
TINS class Of securities has been seen since
the boom of lSS0-Sl There was a rumor in
circulation of controversy between the
Lackawanna and Lehigh Valley people rela-
tive TO anthracite property in Pennsylvania
but 1t failed TO exert any unfavorable effect
on coal properties Foreign houses who
bought Erie common a month or so ago for
the London bull pool say that clique seem to
have grown tired Of their lead and are
quietly selling out whenever favorable
market is to be found. At noon there was
no feature to the dealings, and the market
was very dull and about steady at small frac-
tons above the opening figures. Money was
easy at 1130o5 per cent. Dispatches from
chicago, during the afternoon, saying that
two presidents had refused to sign the agree
ment there, caused some selling. The rumor,
however, lacked confirmation. Texas Pa
cifc and Richmond Terminal common and
preferred were attacked and forced down *
per cent each. The statement of three
weeks earnings of the former showed sci 600
increase. Just why the stock should drop so
suddenly in the face OF such u favorable
showing is somewhat mystfying to the
street. The balance of the list closed firmer
at an advance of Is to 4 per cent The un-
dertonc appears to be firm. The total trans.
actions for the day amounted to l5l, 900
shares, including Reading, $4,000; Lacka-
wanna, 10000; New England, 10000; st.

The market is little better,r was the
general expression heard from statesmen, but
when the matter was sifted down very little
change could be detected in prices from yes
terday There were two factors which made
the market appear little stronger there
were more good cattle and the buyers took
hold more freely The packers paid 50. 1910
80 FOR beef steers and 50. C0C030 90 for cows.
A few common cows and Gamers sold below
g, but the bulk of far to good cows sold at
S2ool@2,4 40 The quality of cows received of
late has been good and there has been "A no.
tlceable absence of anything very common
The supply of feeders was light, and what
few there were here were mostly holdovers
Buyers are showing disposition to buy
feeders lower, but the supply continues so
light that prices are well maintained

SUBWAY CONDUIT.

The tombstone system in its essential feat
ures is a system of water tight manholes large
enough for one man to work inside with COM
fort connected by subways remarkably for
their durability efficiency and economy. The
manholes are irregular cylinders in outline
about six feet in height and four in diameter.
1t is constructed ingeniously out of inter-
changeable rings and segments so as to pro-
vide for the vast prospective development of
electrical traffic. The topis styled cup and
is so arranged with groove and double lid
as to be absolutely water tight and air tight
to the thoroughfare above it. The ways
proper are nothing but partitioned boxes,
which connect the manholes According to
the number of wires to be carried the number
of partitions varies from two to sixteen, and,
if necessary, could be increased to thirtv-two
Each partition will convey two or more cables
containing from twelve wires upwards apiece
The boxes instead of being made solid are con-
structed in unequal halves, the pieces of the
lower half being three or four times as long
as those of the upper half, and being fitted to
the latter by tongue and grove projections.
The pieces of the upper half are so small that
they can be removed without difficulty or ex-
pense or when required by business be re-
placed by special pieces which carry branch
wires to and from the main line of the sub
way.
This feature is of the greatest value to
electric lighting. Under many of the systems
employed about the country none of those
which Use continuous iron or earthenware
tubes can supply wires at any point of their
line The electrical engineer is compelled to
make his connections at some manhole and
then tear up the street to bury the tapping
wire all the way from that center to the house
or factory for which it is intended Still
more important is the immunity from the
caving in of the earth. With long iron tubes
fracture is bound to occur, as is so often
exemplified with water and gas mains. With
the long box system the danger makes itself
known at the first and can be met and avoid
ed in few minutes
One of the greatest evils to the electrical
engineer is the Illuminating gas, which for
ever leaks from the mains and pipes of the
gas companies. 1t is always injurious when
inhaled by workmen, deadly when taken in
comparatively small amounts, and Away.
explosive when mixed with air. The Consoli
dated company has applied another feature
of the tombstone system III this respect, and
in the center of the subway lines employs q
blowing engine of great power, which keeps
the way and manholes clean, dry and sweet
