Market Today Was Active
Cows and Heifers Meeting
With Good Demand
WESTERN CATTLE ARE STEADY
The Hog Market Was Also Active

Extreme Range Of 4.4o to 4.95-Mar-

good demand. Western Range cattle
were active and steady.
The demand for the common and
medium cows Is not reliable and buy
ers are somewhat bearish on that kind.
Yesterday at the start, when there was
some speculative demand in the mar
ket, prices were steady all around but
later the trade was weak and at thu
close some sellers considered the mar
ket little lower than at the start.
The quality as rule is not good. All

freely at steady to strong prices.

market looked slightly better for both

Sheep are steady to strong, and in

Representative Cattle Sales.
Below are given Il few Of the reprs.
sentative cattle sales:
Stookers and Feeders.

Chicago, ILL.,, November 23.-No
quotable change is noted in the
market for stockers and feeders. The
supply has not been heavy and local
dealers, on account of the good out
side demand, have not been able to
accumulate much stuff. There has been
a good inquiry from the country, and 1T
looks as if the market should improve.
The tendency has been a little upward
for the past ten days and values all
along the line are higher than week
ago. Not so much Of the common stuff
has been coming from the dairy dis
tricts and that is one reason why spec
ulators have been able to clean up
pretty we'll The demand is mainly for
the medium to good feeders which are
selling at $3.25@3.65, but there is also
a very reliable outlet for the choice Sc
lected feeders which lately have sold
at $3.S0M4.15. Not many of the real
ly choice steers are coming and that
is why the percentage of sales above
1915 is small. Common light stock
cattle that are poorly bred are selling
low, but they are of low quality. They
are quoted largely at $2.40@2.75.

A Sharp Divergence of Opinion
on Rate Regulation In Sen
ate Committee
SECOND MEETING WAS HELD
Little Was Accomplished in the Way
of Reaching an Asreement-some Of
the Members Express Hope That a
Measure Meeting Views Of President
Will Be Passed.
Will Be Passee

washington, Nov. 23.-Railway rate
making was again considered by the
senate committee on interstate COM
merce yesterday. but In an informa
way, as no measure has yet beer
presented to the committeesupon which
1t can base its action Views were
expressed by several members which
indicated a sharp division as far as the
situation has developed. There is the
further indication that majority Of
the committee will favor a measure
giving the interstate commerce com
mission more power, which means IN
some form control over rates. u
seems to be quite well understood thai
three republicans and enough demo-
Gratis favor such legislation to, insure
rate making bill being reported.
Informal discussions among repubi-
can members Of the committee show
that apprehension is felt that If bill
should be reported by republicans and
democrats against the wish Of ma
jority of the republican members II
would create q division Ia the partr
that will work disaster In the future
The republicans who favor rate max
ing legislation assert that the. way to
avoid a rupture is to support q con-
sentative measure in line with the rec
concentrations Of the president. Some
Of the opponents Of bill giving the
commission power over rates ex-
pressed the hope after the adjourn.
ment of the meeting yesterday tna'
when the views of the president have
been set forth an agreement can be
reached by the republicans upon bill
which can be reported and passed
without much friction.
At future meetings, beginning to-
morrow, each member Of the commits
tee viii be given an opportunity to
state his views in regular order. Dur
ing the discussion yesterday Senator
Foraker expressed the opinion that Il
would be sufficient to meet the present
situation IL the interstate commerce
commission should be authorised tc
take cognazance OF complaints, bring
suits to enforce the laws In the United
States courts and that all district at
torneys be empowered to prosecute
such cases.
DolIiver Expresses Views.
Senator Dolliver said he believed
that the movement for control Of rates
had progressed to the extent that leg
islation short Of giving some tribunal
Of the government such power would
not be satisfactory. Other members
Of the committee expressed opinions
upon various phases Of the proposed
legislation, but definite declarations
were generally withheld. Three mem-
bers Of the committee have not yet

pected tomorrow or early next week
