HOGS

The run of hogs today was large. The
market opened active and steady, and
prices ranged about tho same as yester-
day. Most of the offerings consisted of
mixed lots of hogs. and this accounts for
so many punches bringing only 1925.
When load was of uniform size and
weighed from $40 10 800 pounds they
brought 1875. Everything offered sold
readily. The active demand kept prices
from declining, and the market closed
steady, with everything sold. Tops sold
for S385; bnlk, 1926; pigs and lights 81 90
ad2.75.

Cattle receipts today were small. The
market was steady to strong on good cat
tie, especially on steers, and the supply of
this kind of stock did not satisfy the de-
mand. The sale for common and medium
stuff remains very dull. There is wide
range of prices, as the representative
sales of the past few days show. Good
butchers cows and heifers bring 81. 3562. 90;
common, s1.4OG1.7O; stockeI's, S2.25@2.75;
feeders. 81. 75Q35O. The market closed
ig.ronC on good cattle.

THE LOTTERY LAW.
Banker HOrner is Arrested for
Violating it.
PACIFIC NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Mcconnell, of Idaho, Introduces a Bill to
Have it Paid and the Roads Charters
Declared Forfeited.

New YORK, Jan. 15.-Edward H. Horner,
banker at IS Wall street, has been arrested
for sending lottery circulars through the
mails. The arrest was made on the strength
OF indictments found against prisoner IN
Springfield, Ill. Inspector Conrad speak
ing of the case, said: 'Horner is the chief
agent in this city of various indemnity
bonds of Austria, Hungary and other for
elgn countries, which bonds he says, are
nothing more nor less than lottery policy
certificates The extent of which they
are dealt in in this country, Conrad says,
exceeds the Louisiana lottery business in
the busiest times and he pronounces it
a gigantic swindle Over 100000, coo
are collected yearly for these So
called bonds, it is said, and the whole
OF II is controlled by Horner. The latter,
according to the statement of the Inspector,
acknowledged he is interested in various
schemes to the amount of 100000 and that
his yearly expenses exceed S125, 600. He
maintains branch establishments in Bos
ton, st, Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, Den
yer, birmingham, Ala, San Francisco, st.
Joseph, Mo-, Mexico and South America.
Before the commissioner counsel for
Horner said his client did not come within
the federal statute upon which the arrest
was made. He had written the attorney
general for his opinion and had received a
reply that the case had been submitted to
Chief Postoffice Inspector Rathbone. Coun-
sci asked for time to examine the docu-
ments IN the case, and Commissioner
Shields gave him until Saturday, mean
while fixing bail at 50, 600. Bonds in that
amount were furnished.
