Butcher Stock In Strong Re-
quest and Prices Generally
Ten Cents Iii her
HOG VALUES SUFFER DECLINE
Because Of tho Liberal Receipts and
Inactive Demand, Prices Today
Were Five to Ten Cents Lower Than
Yesterday-Shcep Demand Good at
Advance Of Ten Cents in Prices.

Chicago. May 16.-Cattle--There was
| better demand today. tho the market
showed no sharp advances. Butcher
stock was IN strong request, and gem
orally ten cents higher than Tuesday.
The late big marketing has worked
off some OF the enthusiasm OF
high prices and keen demand In the
trade, and on facing PROBABLY liberal
supply sellers were not very hopeful OF
any decidedly upward shoot i'll the
market.
Beef distributing quarters both here
and In the east are being well supplied
and 1t appears that there will be lie
very hungry call from any source in
late days this week. unless the receipts
show II sharp falling off. Light sup
plies are needed and traders say the
more busly feeders keep engaged In
corn planting operations the better
conditions In the steer trade should
grow.
Consumptive demand appears to be
still In II fairly healthy condition, but
the ovelcrowding of the market has
weakened the price range. While the
general demand gives promise OF con-
tnuing moderately strong. sellers say
light receipts IN the near future can
be the only incentive To an upward
trend of the price range.
The market for medium TO good KILL
ing steers stands 10M20c lower than
the high point at the start last week.
and the current quotations for bulk are
given by traders at 15m20c Off, while
the good heavy beeves, which have
been the most unpopular OF late, also
show this loss.
Lateness OF the spring season is
bringing big weights lacking prime
quality into rather bad repute with the
buying interests. as the relatively poor
selling of such classes has lately at
tested. On the other hand. light and
medium weight grades have moved
fairly readily, and sellers say 1t is safe
wagering that the price range would
now be considerably higher had not
the big midweek run a week ago, fol-
lowed by Mondays heavy supply, put
buyers in rather Independent way

UMPIRE ACTS nlseRAcEFuLLY.
Hampton. Officiating at Boone, Al
Laced Ia Be Drunk mt Game.

Word TO The T.-B. trSff. Boone to-
day tells of disgracefnl scene at the
Boone Oskslloosa game In that city
Tuesday afternoon, when Umpire
Hampton i.s alleged to have appeared
in a state of intoNication to umpire the
game. He was removed from the
grounds. The dispatch from Boone is
as follows:
Boone, May l6.-Yesterday after
noon the most disgraceful scene ever
witnessed at a ball game in the Iowa
State League happened at Recreation
park, when Umpire Hampton appeared
on the diamond at $40 o'clock, twenty
minutes before the time for the game
to be called, in a drunken condition,
and proceeded to call the game. The
Boone Greyhounds were busily en-
gagged in their workout and paid no
attention 10 the drunken man. He in
sisted on calling the game, with only
a few people in the grand stand and
twenty minutes before the regular
starting time Officer Payton was
called by President IintA and was or
dered to rake Hampton from the dia-
rnond anC! eject him from the grounds.
This was done. However, before leav-
ing the diamond, Hampton announced
that Boone had forfeited the game to
Oskaloosl 8 to 0. This announcement
was greeted with derision from botn
teams and spectators. Bennett and
Gerard were called, and at $3.50 o'clock
the game was called, with the two
players acting as umpires.
"The scene was made the more dis
graceful cnsidering the very fine work
by Umpire Miller. who was assigned to
open the season in Boone. Miller was
without doubt the best umpire ever
seen on the local diamond, and his
work gave the best of satisfaction"
Presto cent Peckharn confirmed the
news from three telephone messages
from President Hintz Tuesday. Mr..
Peckhaln has placed the power OF
handling Hampton for the time being
with Mr. Hirtz, who is vice-president
of the league. His case will be dis
posed of by the president later. Drink
ing on the part of umpires is strictly
forbidden at all times.
