CATTLE-There were no cattle here Of
any consequence less than load being
reported In the yards. For the week re-
ceiptg foot up l4,2s7 head, being the iars-
est since three weeks ago, but still
smaller than year ago by over 1000
head,
Owing 20 moderate receipts at most
selling points the market on beef steers
during the week has shown little firm
ness, although no great or noteworthy
general thing are around l0c higher than
last weeks cloae, Tne feeling is that
the consuming demand for the product is
not yet sufficiently broad to encourage
large shipments OF fat cattle.
Good heifers and light cows on the
heifer order have been In good demand
all week and are closing 1091bc higher
than last week, Other kinds OF COWS have
shown little or no change.
Stoekers and feeders have been In
limited supply and moderate demand ali
the week, stili the feeling II anything il
little stronger than a week ago.

not inclined TO follow this lead. and
their first bids were no better than steady

TOOK this turn the trade became very
drSsgy, as sellers believed they were en-
titled 70 five higher prices but the edge
was OFT the market, and although sell
ers held out until we'll along in the fore

For the week the trade shows decline

NEW YORK, April 1s.-The decline in
stocks was resumed at the opening to-
day Reading and Union PaoifIe, which
lost point each. sold at the lowest
figures Of the year. Can. Northern Pa
eifio and Canadian Pacific receded a
point or more. Missouri Pacific and Le-
high Valley, yesterdays weak features,
opened fractionally higher but later sold
off to below yesterdays close.
Concerted support stopped the raidinR
OF the bears after a number OF stocks
had been driven down / to points TO
the years low levels. Shorts bought
heavily, causing full recoveries in some
cases.
The market closed firm The action
OF the market indicated that the selling
movement had run its course for the time
being. Ralding tactics of the bears failed
to bring out more long stock and after
the early decline the market made a con-
sistently good showing.
At the end Of the session prices ranged
around yesterdays close. Heavy cover
ing OF Iehigh Valley and Missouri Pa
cific sent them up sharply. The an
nouncement of plans for meeting the
Missouri Pacific and New Haven notes
which soon fall due was of good effect
on those stocks and stimulated buying
elsewhere. Bonds were steady.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.

Prices on board OF lEaues
CHICAGO, April Is.--Faster selling than
has been seen for weeks, much of II be-
lieved to be for leading bulls, swept down
prices today in corn: Argentina offers
lower than ever and ideal weather to
prepare for the new domestic crop gave
the greater part of the impetus. The
close was weak, &0pJkc to lHc under last
night Wheat showed a net decline OF
hsd7sc, and oats &c to HqSsc. In the
provisions, the outcome Was an advance
OF 7lsc to l5c.
Corn made an almost vertical drop from
start TO finish IL was a day OF liquida-
ton on a broad scale and no let up in
any of the months but with the severest
pressure on the May delivery. Brokers
who usually act for the principal house
on the bull side, were unloading APP
n any regard for tfe effect on prices.
Whenever there seemed likely to be a
breathing place. prominent bears were
not slow to throw all their weight on the
oVerhurdened market.
Official estimates that the Argentine
crop would amount TO 324. 10000 bushels,
ms against 1851 coo bushels last year. put
the corn bulls at a special disadvantage.
Furthermore. domestic primary receipts
today exceeded 20 material extent the
total at the corresponding time a year
ago and the primary shipments were
nearly 500 OO0 bushels less than then, al
though clenTdnces from here by the great
lakes began today.
General rains, particularly beyond the
Missouri river. took the wheat market
downgrade. The timely supply OF mois-
ture virtually stopped the drought talk
from both the winter and the spring crop
belts. Seeding In the Dakotas and Min
nesota was reported as 80 to 7s per cent
complete. Corn weakness. too, induced
considerable selling. Notwithstanding
wheat statistics Monday were expected
TO favor the bulls.
In oats, notwithstanding that shorts
were good buyers, the movement felt
tho effect of the setback for corn
Weather reports tended also 70 depross
prices.
Scantiness Of hog supplies made pro
visions duh. regardless Of grain Packers
bought freely.

LIGHT FOR THE LEGISLATURES

AS will be seen by his announce
ment elsewhere, Mr.. L. s. Light will
again be a candidate for the office Of
representative of Marion county in
the lower house Of the Florida legis-
lature
Mr.. Light has served two terms in
the house, and has gained a great
store of experience, which he hopes
TO make most useful to his constitu-
ents if he is again elected.
Mr.. Light has his critics and will
likely have opponents. A number
of prominent men in the county
claim that he has failed to carry ou
some Of his promises in the las
campaign, and threaten to make i
warm for him this time.
However. Mr.. Light has by n
| means lost all his friends He ha
many who will stand by him Loyalty
He will have a harder fight than h
had in 1912, but it will take
mighty popular man to beat him.

COLONEL ROGERS HAS
RECEIVED HIS COMMISSION

Mr.. Robert r Rogers has received
OcaIa.
Colonel Bob" is the first demo-
cratic postmaster Ocala has had in
sixteen years. and as his appoint
ment is a result Of the victory of the
party, all democrats should lay aside
faCti0nal and personal feeling and
heartily congratulate him. The Star
knows him we'll enough to guarantee
that he would congratulate and help
any other candidate who might have
been successful instead of himself
Mr.. Rogers says he is going to try
to make the best postmaster OcaIa
ever had. He says he will try, but
wont guarantee that he will sue
ceed, as he knows his predecessor
has made a most capable and accep-
table official, and there have been
other very good men in the office
before him.
Mr.. Rogers will make as many i'm
provements in the local service as
are in his power. The people must
understand that the postmaster can
do very little more than make rec
concentrations to the department.
He will have a telephone Installed at
his own expense, and will make rec
concentrations for installing more
mail boxes at needed points. He is
going to try to have a night watch
man appointed, for the federal build
ing, and will also endeavor to have
electric light posts installed at the
corners Of the square. In order to
do this, he will have to have a guar
antee that the city will furnish the
current. He will also impress on
it the necessity of paving Washing
ton street in front of the postoffice !;
to all Of which reasonable requests
the Star recommends our city dads
to give favorable consideration.
