Notice was served upon the city Of
ficials yesterday that a suit for dam
ages will be brought against the city in
behalf of Joseph Gimar, for injuries
sustained three months ago in the
breaking of his leg, by which he has
been kept from earning up to the
present time, and is still unable to
pursue his usual avocation of team
ster. The claim is made that the
place near the crossing where the ac-
cident occurred was a dangerous one,
and that city officials were cogniZant
of the fact, and promptly repaired 1t
after the accident to Mr.. Gimar. The
probability is that some settlement OF
the case will be effected outside of the
court room, as the experience Of the
city in damage suits has been that
the sympathy of the jury is quite
likely to be in behalf of the individual

Chicago, May sO.-With Saturday
falling on a holiday, there was little
doing at the stock yards. Arrivals OF
cattle were only 200 head, not suffic-
lent to make a market. Inc rev oilet-
ings sold at steady prices.
The man behind the steer, Is OF the
opinion that cattle are selling cheap
enough, when the cost of producing
Tim is considered. Corn has advanced
wonderfully lately and this has made
the cattle feeder restless. While re-
fceipts were surprisingly small this
week they consisted mainly of common
and medium short-fed steers, which
were not nigh sellers. 1T was evident
I that the, country is trying to get RID OF
I the cattle that are only warmed up,
and is turning many on grass where
cost Of maintenance is light.
Hogs.
The receipts were only about $4,000,
and as a result prices held firm.
In the west there were more hogs
than last week, affording signs of an
other EXPANSION in the movement
consequent on the recent advance
which restored the country market,
naomentarily, to sc basis. During the
week the general run of business has
dipped below the 51s c line, indicating
that paying sc in the country Tor hoSs
under present conditions is dangerous
business The trade is generally OF the
opinion that all western markets viii
make a liberal showing; on Monday, as
there is absolutely no evidence that che
country has no hogs to sell.
Sheep.

Suckers and Feeders.

Each day there has been a slim vol
ume of stockers and feeders offered
and country demand was down to the
same proportions, corn planters being
too busy to come to market, while the
market held forth poor fnducement for
them to come The excellent pastures
all over the corn belt are an induce
ment for owners of stock steers to hold
them at home to grow on the grass,
and thus the meager supplies at mar
tket. Particularly is this true of good
grades. The latter have been very
scarce this week, but except for we'll
bred light steers demand has been very
quiet.
