Livestock Notes.

Cheap pork is hurting beef and NUT
ton trade at present. Hogs are com
ing to market in such numbers that
packers are unable TO handle them ana
the big movement is expected TO cos.
all thru February and March. Inc pun
party has abandoned the effort TO ao-
vance prices and ii is admitted that
the big packers could put up droves at
considerably less money if they desired.
Not until eastern hogs have been
cleaned up will the trade have an OPP
portunity to improve. Hogs never
reached market in better condition than
at present.
New York countermanded orders for
cattle yesterday and the 50 quotation
was erased. Stagnation in dressed
beef trade in the east is attributed to
gentine product, cheap pork and poul-
try and industrial stagnation. Only
Boston was in the market for heavy
cattle and few satisfied that demand.
Live stock trade conditions at present
are an interesting study i'll contradic-
tions and contrasts. markets for all
grades OF fat stuff are off their stride.
Consequent on liquidation incidental to

Burton Blocks Purchase Bill.
The democratic leaders say they are
going to pass the ship purchase bill
thru the senate and they apparently
will This is because there Is nobody
else in the senate who has the capacity
for speech that Senator Burton has.
a half dozen Burtons could fend OFF the
ship purchase bill until the European
war had ended ard do it with ease.
The senate has seen many filibusters
but not in recent memory has there
been senator who had the art of hli-
clustering down so fine as Senator
Burton has. He served many years in
the house. has written books on finance
and other subjects, and has a wonder

The difficulty is for him to exhaust

hence from the starting point.
