Reduction Measure.
S WASHINGTON, Dec. l2.-The Repub-
lican house caucus on the war revenue
reduction bill has decided by large
majority to stand by the bill as now
drawn and reported by the ways and
means committee. There were about
100 members present and the vote to
support the bill as now framed stood 6S
ayes to ~ noes.
The resolution finally adopted was
offered by Representative Hepburn Of
Iowa and was as follows:
Resolved, That the recommenda.
tions made by the committee on ways
and means in house bill No. IL, ,394 are
judioious and merit the approval of
this conference, and we recommend
that all Republican members of the
house be urged to vote against all
amendments and for the passage Of the
bill.'
Two other resolutions were put before
the conference. One was framed by
Representative Pearce Of Missouri and
provides for reduction Of the tax on
beer to $1.50a barrel. It was lost-45
ayes to 68 nays. Representative Rob.
erts Of Massachusetts moved thai the
present tar on beer be reduced only 10
per cent and that reduction Of the
duty on tea be made from 10 cents to 6
cents 9 pound. This motion was lost
almost unanimously.

HOGS WERE LOVER
Market Here Yesterday De-
>cIined 2 IL Cents.
TOP PRICE WAS S4.55
Quality of Hogs Received Was
Good.
TOP PRICE WAS S4.55

The hog market was weak to ~ cents
lower yesterday. The market opened
fairly steady, but declined yater in the
day on account of the unfavorable re-
ports from other markets, which natur-
ally had a depressing influence and re-
suited in the drop in prices. Taken as a
whole, the market was hardly 21z cents
Off the daY before.
The quality of the hogs received yester-
day was good. There were Of course a
few poor hogs in the drove, but the
greater part were fair to good, and there
were some fine lots. The top Of ten
market yesterday was as high as the
day before, and this was due wholly TO
the quality of the hogs on the market.
On some days the market cannot be quot
ed exactly by the plain figures, as the
hogs, which bring the top price, may not
come in.
The top price Of the day was $455, while
the bulk sold at $4.5OQS4.55. One Of the
most noticeable features OF the (market
for the past few days has been the alb
seuce of any great number Of heavy hogs.
There nave been but few lots of good,
heavy hogs on the market, the general
run leaning toward mediums and lights.
There was a fair supply of hogs yester-
day. There was quite a run of wagon
hogs of average quality, which arrived
early in the morning and were disposed Of
before the CARROTS began TO arrive. The
CARROTS came in quite early, and trading
was brisk for some time.
The market compared well with other
eastern markets. Chicago was weak
throughout the day, and at closing hour
sent out the report that the market was
slow and cents lower. Kansas City,
however. quoted the market as weak to
. cents lower.
The superiority Of the Wichita market
was again demonstrated yesterday by the
fact that the market did not decline as
seriously as others, but held its own
imuch better. The shipper is beginning
TO notice this.
