Two days decline in wheat values was
sufficient to put the market In a congested
position and support late yesterday caused
shorts to scramble TO cover the wheat SOLO

sponded readily to this class OF ouyhe
ana values advanced sharply.
shorts IN corn were more than disap-
pointed in the advance from YESTERDAY
Low level. News IL generally considered
bcarish but the market does not stand
any marked selling without quick reaction.
Wheat opened steady at closing prices
and worked a bit higher on short cover
Ing The early bulge did not hold after
the first buying orders were filled; the
market dullcd ard eased back with no
feature. cash wheat found slow demand
and sales were reported pac lower.
Corn ruled flTmer after the opening, owing
TO the rally In wheat, although prices
changed very little and the days trading
was rather a dun affair. Cash markets
we're duh and offerings on the sample floor
we're unchanged from yesterday.

SHEEp-ReCeipts OF sheep were OF verJ
fail proportions this morning and consisted
largely Of fed western stock. The demand
for anything 1T to Kill was ample, how
ever, and movement from the start was
active in every branch OF the trade. There
appeared to be some disposition among
buyers to avoid the plain and heavy
grades Of live mutton, natives especially,
and this class Of stock found a poor outlet
Lambs showed some Improvement I'm
prices, bulk OF good dressers selling strong
to a dime higher than yesterday. Prime
quality was wanted and moved readily at
$6.0OQ6.lb, one string Of choice animals
bringing the latter figure Heavy lambs
had to sell below the $500 mark.
Sheep and yearllngs held steady, ewes
selling as high as 3AOO and wethers com
handing sans. The wethers were rather
flcshy, however, and choice handyweights
would probably sell at N25 or better.
NearlinEs OF desirable finish brought S5,OO
and more, but avoidance OF weight I'm the
yearling branch OF the trade was decidedly
pronounced and anything weighing over
100 pounds had to go below the $500 mark.
Closing trade was rather dun, available
offerings on the late market carrying too
much weight to make them attractive.

While Mr.. Hughitt courted the full

had TO conform to the regulations in
their established form and the federal
government would impose another. He
said this might create a conflict of au-
thority and result in serious and costly
litigation 10 the railroads. unless the
states surrender their rights TO the

Beyond admitting that they for

northern clubs of the circuit at the

have little to say. This agreement
merely ratif1es one tentatively made
earlier in the winter when it became
certain that an attempt would be
made to put the Boosters out of the
organization and admit Quincy
The ten-club idea was not given
much consideration, for it was
agreed that a league OF more than
eight clubs would be cumbersome
However, il was decided that in the
event the southern clubs felt that
they had obligated themselves to ad-
init either Quincy or Decatur and de-
manded such action the northern
clubs would insist that only one be
admitted and that Cedar Rapids be
