cipal industry Of the town is badly Grip
pied. though the manufacturers claim that

Of employees at work. The men who are out

who reported today were those not mem
bers of the union. The strikers some
months ago demanded a nine-hour day,

MAY LOSE THEIR TITLES.
Panic Among American Girls Who
Married Frenchmen.

HnnlC AMONG american SANAh ~
Married Frenchmen.
Titled Frenchmen are shocked at the
prospect Of having the pretty handles to
their names taken away. The name Of
Count Boni de Castellane, who was recently
unseated in the chamber Of deputies be-
cause OF his misuse of the elective fran
chise, is uttered with bitter adjective on
every side, for his misdoing is held re-
sponsible for the proposed innovation.
A bill abolishing all French titles has
been introduced into the chamber OF dep
uties and was received with expressions Of
| approval by a majority OF the members.
The house at once took up the measure,
presented by Deputy Fourier, into urgent
| consideration, ami referred 1t to a commit
tee. There is universal belief that II will
pass.
French titles carry with them no privi-
leges under the republic, but they are legal
ICED forms Of address and are recognized
in foreign courts when questions Of prece-
dence arise. To abolish them would be to
strike a blow at many American women
OF wealth who exchanged their fortunes,
and many of them their happiness. for
titles.
Castellane, who has always been among
the most extreme and arrogant Of the So
called royalists, is the most universally de-
tested man in Paris today, for now his
own party friends are turning against him.
Some we'll known American women whose
titles are menaced by the French chamber
Of deputies are as follows:
Miss Anna Gould. now Countess Boni de
Castellane.
Miss Barley. now Countess de PortaIes.
Miss Burdan, now Baroness Lepeletier

The disposition Of the days receipts was
as follows. euch buyer purchasing the mum


CATTLE-The usual holiday conditions
prevailed today. Receipts were extremely
light and so also was the demand. Packers
apparently did not care whether they got
much of anything or not, so that trading
was rather slow on most lines, without any
radical change in prices,
There were a few cars of corn fed steers
included in the receipts and the market
was slow and IL anything a shade lower.
Buyers were very indifferent. so that sales
men had a hard time to dispose of what
they had at satisfactory prices. The tend
ency of prices has been downward most all
the week, so that the bulk of the advance
of last week has bSen lost.
The COW market was just shout steady
with yesterday. There were only a few Of
fered, so that most everything was dis
posed OF in good season. II was very
evident though that packers were not at
all anxious for supplies. The same as
noted above for steers the bulk of the ad-
vance of last week has been lost.
Bulls, veal calves and stays all sold in
just about the same notches they did yes
terday.
There is not much TO be SAID, of the feeder
trade, as there was practically nothing on
sale and SPECTATORS did not want anything.
Receipts have been light all the week, so
that although the demand has been of a
holiday character, prices have. held good
and stronL on all desirable grades. Repre-
sentative sales:
