MUSIC ouELLs FIRE PANIC.
Orchestra Prevents Stampede in Blaze
at Howard Theater.


at Howard Theater.
Chicago, April 16-Five hundred
people were routed from Towards
theater, Belmont and Lincoln ave-
nues. at $40 o'clock last night when
fire broke out in the roof of the build
ing. Grasping their wraps, they hur-
ried from the theater without confu-
sion. They stood outside until the blaze
had been extinguished, when they re-
turned to the performance.
1t was during the first act of the en-
tertainment that the cry of fire was
sounded thru the building. The aud
fence, individually gathering wraps and
clothing, started panfc-stricken for the
doors when quieted by the orchestra,
which continued playing, and by X.

B. Walton, the manager, who Gained
them by saving that there was no need
for excitement.
The alarm was turned In py
stranger. who. passing. saw the sparks
issuing from the chimney and a small
blaze. Engine company No. 40 an
swered the call and in few minutes
the fire had been extinguished and the
people quieted.
The manager of the house then OPP
ened the doors and invited the people
back into the house, where the play
was continued There was absolutely
no excitement on the stage. The steel
curtain was dropped at the first cry OF
fire, and the members of the cast qul-
city gathered their apparel and made
their exit thru the stage door.
THE fire amounted to nothing at
ALL" said Mr.. Walton in speaking of the
matter later. 1T was just a flue burn
ing out We, of course, took such pre-
cautions as were, necessary. There are
seven exits to the building. and the
people were hustled out, without any
confusion at all. One company an
swered the CALL but the fire was out
before it arrived. 1t was only with the
of the captain. however,
that we continued the show"
Fire in the basement of the Cont

smoke The fire was quickly extln-
guished and the loss was slight.

Supply of Beeves Meagre, With
Good Demand For Butcher
Stock
SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT IN HOGS
The Opening Was Weak, But Prices
Advanced Later, On Fair Demand,
Which Was Strongest For Light
Weight class-sheep Strong, With
steadiness in Lamb Market.

Chicago, April 17.-Cattle were ac-
tive and steady. There was good
demand for butcher stock, and the
supply of beeves was meagre.
The price range is narrowing consid-
erably. the top end sinking, by reason
of poorer quality, and lower priced
grades advancing, due to stronger de-
mand.
Plain heavy lots, however. are not
improving in demand materially from
a week ago, and while there is slightly
better call for really good heavy kinds
this is due mainly to the fact that few
of them are coming.
Outlet is broad for all medium and
light weight steers and under moderate
marketing in the near future traders
say there cannot be any but satisfac-
tory markets On the other hand, big
marketing is not needed and must nee
essarily force reactions from the pres
ent good range.
Hogs.
Hogs opened weak. but prices I'M
proved slightly as tfe day advanced,
under fair demand. Light weights were
the most sought after.
Sheep.
Sheep were strong and lambs steady.
One bunch of clipped lambs sold at
1890
Prices have been climbing at such q
swift gait during the past two weeks
that it has made traders dizzy watching
the ascent, the advance being general
ly 6O@70c during that period While
prevailing prices seem dangerously
high. even conservative traders admit
the high point has not been seen yet.

wisely in letting such come 10 market
right along. thereby avoiding any pos
sible onslaughts on the market by
buyers say most traders.

Live Stock Values.
(Chicago Drovers' JournaD


With average price of good beef cat
tie as high as any time this year Col
orado lambs highest on record and hogs
81 above the average for the CORE
spending period during the past three
years, everything looks good for the
farmer and feeder. Conservative deal
ers here expect cattle to keep on a
good basis, many being of the opinion
that values will go considerably higher
during the next little While, but of
course holding supplies down to mod
crate proportions will help consider
ably.
While hogs are 81 higher than the
average of 1906, 1905 and 1904 for this
season of the year. the present average
is about soc lower than in 1903 and
1902, consequently it is not surprising
that many traders are of the opinion
that packers will have hard time
holding hog values down.
