STOCK 1dfuS, June z.
Dull sales of mich cows have been
been the rule during the past month
and this week proved no exception, fol
the market was weak. Sales were slow
although the receipts were light and
the quality fair. Shippers either had
to close out some of their most ordi-
nary mixers for beef or else hold them
over. The best mixers had a better
market, but on these, also, disposals
were hard and prices in general on all
classes average rather lower. Milk is
coming in from the country in heavier
supplies than formerly and the demand
about Boston is consequently smaller
for mich cows.

Lewiston, Idaho, June 2-National
Bank Examiner Claude Catch is au-
thority for the statement that short
age has been discovered in the funds

said that the alleged defalcation
