New York. Feb 1S--Justfce David

preme court told the congregation in
the Broadway tabernacle yesterday
that in his opinion. religion was the
principal factor by which the negroes
OF the south could be converted into a
valuable asset OF the nation.

'I believe that there is a divine

bringing about this end. Industrial

Fairy good cattle runs yesterday
and today have met a steady market
good heavy beef steers commanding
most attention from killer buyers,
while medium class half fat steers
have had 70 depend on the strong in
quiry for heavy feeders for part Of
their support Run was 1900 head
yesterday, 13, 900 head here today, but
good to choice fed steers are noticably
scarce The best here yesterday sold
at $500. while there are different
punches at S6.15 and S6.25 today, bulk
Of the steers selling at $3.50 to $40.
The general situation IS better than it
was a week ago, and the trade shows
signs Of further Improvement Sew
eral shipping orders were Withdrawn
yesterday, as buyers were active in
the afternoon and shippers reconsid-
cred their determination to forward
to other markets Forwarding cattle
has been a losing proposition the last
ten days Cows and heffers have held
up steady during the depression In
beef steer prices competition being
enlivened by many shipping orders
for New York and Boston Cows sell
at s3.z5 to $3.50, heifers $3.50 to
$3.50, with good she stuff generally
selling above $500. Bulls bring $500
to $4.15. calves a quarter lower at
S3-25 to $500, stOckers $3.50 to $3.50,
feeders $500 to 1856. Heavy feeders
sell the most readily, although the
near approach Of spring is an import
ant incentive to parties figuring on the
purchase OF stock cattle. Shipments
of farm cattle from this point last
week aggregated $50 carloads
Hog prices have apparently started
downward for good. general opinion
being that the high time has been
passed Receipts are liberal, last
weeks total being 1000 head, an in
crease Of 1900 head over same week
last year. Run today is 10000 head,
market 5 lower, top $6.971k, bulk
S6-S5 to $6.95, light hogs $6.75 to
$5.35 to S5.75- The much talked Of
shortage in hogs IS turing out partly
an illusion, although no heavy receipts
are counted on till another crop OF
pigs mature Judging from the null
dplicity Of hog sales being held over
the country. and the stih prices real-
zeds we are entering on an era Of
heavy hog production
Mutton receipts are large this week
49, 600 head each Of the last two days
which, together with lower markets
east, has resulted in a decline OF 10
to 20 cents yesterday and today. Bulk
Of the lambs sell today at Sis to
$3.50, top lambs $40, yearlings $40
to S6.65, wethers $40 70 s5.75, ewes
S4-9O to $5.25. Trading is active and
the demand strong from killers, and
no settled slump in prices is expected
