Those of our theater-goers who have
seen and admired Paul Gilmore In the
dashing roles Of the romantic drama

sition to the modern comedy roles, Of
which Sir Charles Wyndham and John
Drew have SO far been the leading En-

at Chicago. but the situation is still dull and
quotations remain unchanged.
The Chicago report Of Mitchell, Mulcahy
Co. said yesterday: Primary receipts of Hogs
are again large and prices at the yards easier.
There was further scattered liquidation for
outside accounts, principally in May. Local
support seems hardly so good, local short in
terest having apparently covered freely the
past few days. While, heretofore do
not see anything particularly bullish on pro-
vision outlook. yet with elimination OF May
