MENTS HOLD UP.
The little frmness in wheat brought in few
orders from local and nearby trade and to

slight concessions were reported earlier in the
week. it would probably be more difficult to
obtain them now. Shipments, 90, 652 barrels.

management of the national sick insur-
ance funds and several thousands of
physicians employed by the free hos
pitfalls, or outdoor relief. About three
months ago the physician threatened to
leave the states service in a body I'M
less their compensation was increased
from ~ cents a visit to at least 10
cents. They also demanded certain
other ameliora tons in their condition.
The physicians in the Muhlhausen hos
pital, under the leadership of Dr.
Schloss actually did go on a strike for
a time, but resumed their duties pend
ing an investigation. DR.. Schloss and
DIR. Schwartz since then mad bitter
personal quarrel.
