PRINCE CANNOT SAIL EARLIER
Must Take Chances on Reaching New

KEEL. Prussia, Feb. 1S.-Mayor Low OF
New York has cabled to Prince Henry OF
Prussia saying that Herr YtsDsndt airectur
general OF the North 6erman Lloyd Tine,
thinks that unless the .Kron Prinz Wilhelm
sails from Bremen earlier than O'Clock
Saturday afternoon It will not be able to
arrive at New York, owing to the rough
weather which prevails at this season OF the
year, until late in the afternoon Of Feb
ruary %, too late for the ceremony OF the
municipal welcome and the presentation to
the prince Of the freedom of the city Of
New York. When asked il the steamer
could not leave Bremen at an earlier hour
Prince Henry replied that he was unable to
change the sailing hour Of the Kron Prinz
wilhelm, but, he said, 1t would de its best
to reach New York early on Saturday, Feb
ruary 20 The Kron Prinz Wilhelm is not
chartered by Prince Henry. He and his
party go simply as passengers and 1t is too
late now to notify the hundreds OF other
passengers that the steamer would sail
twelve hours earlier than heretofore an
nounced, as 1t would have to do in order to
catch the tide.

1.-the and athletic, appeared to be in fit con-
dition for the hard campaign OF dinners
and receptions that awaits him on the other
side of the Atlantic. The crowded program
rather dismays some of the members Of the

DECISION ON CATTLE SALES
Kansas City Court of Appeals Holds
Commission Men Not Liable
in Cases of Theft.

KANSAS CITY, Feb. 1s.-(special Tele-
gram.)-A decision of considerable i'm
portance to cattle commission dealers has
been made by the Kansas City court Of
appeals. The court decides that commits
sion dealers cannot be compelled to pay
for stolen cattle which they may have
sold.
Hundreds OF stolen cattle are sold at
the stock yards annually When the COM
mission men have no means of ascertaining
that the cattle offered to them for sale
are stolen, 1t is a presumption that the
cattle belong to the men shipping them.
Under this decision the commission men
are held not liable for the sale of stolen
cattle. This reverses the general practice
at the stock yards.
For years purchasers Of cattle have been
compelling the commission men to make
good such losses. Thousands of dollars
have been paid out annually by commits
sion men in reimbursing purchasers OF
stolen cattle.
The decision means a saving Of many
thousands Of dollars annually to the COM
mission men of Kansas City in the han
ding of cattle Now 1t is up to the pack
ing houses and cattle spectators to de-
wise some means of protecting themselves
against the purchase Of stolen cattle.
