and completed the final draft OF their
report on the subject of corporations, and
1t will be submitted to the House to-day.
The report, which is a voluminous docu-
ment, is largely the handiwork Of Colo
mel James Il. Cation. of Alexandria,
though after having been drawn by him,
ii was considered for days and days by
the other members of the subcommittee
and then by the full committee.
The report takes the article of the new
Constitution on corporations and blends
it with the present laws on the subject,
so rs to make them conform to each
other in every minute detail. The House
will likely take it up for consideration
as soon as the tax bill,is disposed Of, and
its consideration will require a great deal
of time.

TO SPUR The
MERCHANTS
Interesting Bill Offered by
Mr.. owen.
WANTS QUICK RETURNS.
More Evidence as to the Jordan Oyster
Bill-Roads Committee to Report
on Corporations To-Day-Im-
portant Matters to Be Up.

Hon. John ]. Owens, Of Prince Ed
ward. has offered in the House a bill
which will be of interest to the commits
zion merchants, as we'll as to the far
lners of the State.
The measure, which is designed to
make the farmer more prompt in their
returns for goods consigned to them, is
as follows: s
"Be it enacted by the General AS
sembly of Virginia, that whenever any
commission merchant shall have made
sale of any consignment of farm product
he shall not later than the following
day mail to the consgnor an itemized
statement of the transaction, showing
The date of sale. the quantity and price
of the products and the name AMI ad-
dress of the purchaser.
"Any cUHinisslon merchant wilfully
falling 10 comply with the provisions of
This act shall forfeit his commission on
said sale and be fined not less than ten
dollars. nor more than one hundred dol
lars; to be recovered as other fines due
the Commonwealth"
In discussing the reason which actuated
him in offering the measure, Mr.. Owen
said wien seen last night:
MANY of the farmers and shippers Of
farm products have complained to me in
regard to the delay in getting reports
from their shipments. They also COM
plain as to shortage in weights. and
prices below market quotations. They
are compelled under present conditions
to rely entirely upor the statements Of
the commission merchant. This bill re-
qiiires the name of purchaser to be given
in these reports, and consequently the
I. -. n.
ton when he thinks he has not been
treated fairly'

STOCKYARD NOTES.

This week a year ago a little over 10000 hogs
were received. and nearly 22.OO of this number
arrived on Thursday and Friday.
xxx
The combined receipts of hogs at eleven mar
kets yesterday were over $4,000 smaller than a
week ago. but nearly 10000 larger than a year
ago.
The receipts Of hogs for two days show an In
crease OF $500 over the same time last week. and
5000 over the corresponding time a year ago.
The receipts yesterday were $500 larger than a
week ago and $500 larger than a year ago.
Thus far this week there is very little change
to report In the marketing Of cattle compared
with the same time last week and the corre-
spending time a year. ago. The receipts yester-
day were about the same as a week ago and
fully as large as a year ago.
xxs
The receipts of sheep and lambs thus far this
week show a decrease of over 200 compared with
the same time last week and 80 compared with
the corresponding time a year ago. The receipts
yesterday were over 100 smaller than a week ago,
and not quite so large as a year ago.
Xxx
Until after the holidays there will be an in
creased demand for poultry, game and other hol-
iday meats in place of beef. and a corresponding
reduction in the demand for this class of food.
Therefore, shippers cannot be too careful or the
number and kind of cattle they market.
Xxx
All markets arc complaining of an oversupply
of heavy and plain beef cattle. Packers both
East and West have their coolers well stocked
with such meat. and so 1t Is absolutely necessary
that there be a reduction in the marketing of
this class of cattle, or a further Generalization
of the trade. Shippers. therefore, should accept
this word Of caution and profit by its observance.
X *
The receipts Of stock for two days show an in
crease OF $500 hogs. little change in cattle. and
a decrease of 200 sheep compared with the same
time last week. and an increase OF 5000 hogs.
little change in cattle. and a decrease of $50
sheep compared with the corresponding time a
/ year ago. The general cattle market was re-
ported steady yesterday. sheep and lambs We're
also steady. ard prices of hogs were unevenly
lower,

stock the first fourteen days of this month COM
pared with the receipts the same period last
