CATTLE-There was not a particularly
heavy run of cattle here today, as the table
of receipts above will show, and 1t will be
noticed that there is a decrease as COM
pared with the same day Of last week.
Buyers were out in good season, and as
they bid just about steady prices in most
cases, IL was not long before the more
desirable grades were out of first hands.
There were quite a few beef steers in
cluded in the receipts this morning, but
there were no strictly choice cattle, the
bulk of the offerings consisting of short
fed cattle. Packers took hold with some
active and just about steady, particularly
on the better grades. The kinds
were, of course, neglected to some extent,
but still, ever those sold at right around
steady prices.
Anything at all good in the way of cows
or heifers sold without much trouble today
at steady prices. The only kinds that SELL
ers found hard to move at satisfactory
prices were the old Gamers. Trade on
those kinds was a little slow, probably
owing to the fact that a good many have
been coming in. of late, so that packers
are well supplied for the present.
There was not enough change in the
prices paid for bulls, veal calves and stays
to be worthy of mention. Anything good
sold freely, while the common kinds were
more or less neglected.
There were only a few stockers and feed
ers In the yards this morning, so hat SELL
ers received good, steady prices for all the
better grades. The kinds sold at
uneven prices, the same as they have all
along, but on the average they brought
fully as much today as they did at the
close of last week. Representative sales:

EIGHTY MILLIONS INVOLVED IN NEW DEAL
Corn Products Company Ready Go

Many cities ThrouEhOut

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.--An ofhcial circular
containing the terms by which the Glucose
Sugar Refining and National Starch compa-
MES were taken over by the syndicats
financing the Corn Products company,
which is capitalized at $50, 900, 900, has been
mailed to stockholders. For each 500. par
value, Of the National Starch preferred the
Corn Products company is to give 500 OF its
preferred stock and for each 500, par
value, Of the National Starch common II is
to give $3.50 of its common stock. The
circular further states that to the North
American Trust company Of this city viii
be issued an additional s. preferred stock
and $3.50 common OF the Corn Products
company for each 500 preferred and 800
common stock OF the National Starch COM
pany, deposited to secure and assure the
amount Of quick convertible assets con-
tracted and agreed to be owned by the
National Starch company at the time Of
exchange OF securities contemplated and as
one of the considerations for such ex-
change.
The Glucose Sugar Refining preferred
stockholders are TO receive SIPS in the pre-
ferred stock Of the Corn Products company
and the Glucose common shareholders SIPS
In the common Of the Corn Products COM
psny.
Although the Illinois Sugar Refining COM
pany of Pekin. ILL.,; the Charles Pope Glu-
cose Manufacturing company and the New
York Glucose company also are included
In the merger, the official terms Of ex-
change in regard to these concerns havs
not yet been made public. 1t lie understood,
however. that for the Pope company cash
will be paid, while for the Pekin company
part cash and part stock OF the Corn Prod
ucts company will be received. It is also
believed President Bedford of the New
York Glucose company and his assistants
agreed to part with a minority interest in
their company for stock In the combine,
but the New York Glucose company will
maintain its individual Identity.
The dividend policy of the new company
Is outlined in the following statement:
To enable the declaration and payment
OF dividends, when earned upon the conn
OF dividends upon the preferred stock,
there has been inserted In the charter OF
the Corn Products company a provision to
the enect that whenever all quarterly divi-
dends accrued upon the preferred stock
Tor previous quarters shall have been paid
the board Of directors may declare divi-
bends ON the common stock out OF any re-
naming surplus or net profits.
1t is stated that a meeting to elect
permanent officers will be held in this city
this week. C. II. Matthiesen, now president
Of the Glucose Sugar Refining company,
will probably be president Of the new COR
poration. The underwriting has been sew
