increases in the western advanced rate
case- II the shippers and the public
win this great fight It will be a SUR
prise. AS Is we'll known the railroads
won the eastern advance case thru
the exertion of pressure of all sorts on
the commission. 1t was organized and
concerted pressure. Even the White
House was brought to use its influence
for higher rates.
The eastern rates having been in.
creased by a course Of action that
many long headed men believe In the
end will tend to break down the in
terstate commerce commissions stand
ing in the eyes Of the country, 1t IL
apparent that the shippers in the west
ern case are at a disadvantage. The
eastern case was put across" by the
reeds despite admirable work in the
public behalf by Commissioner Thorne
of Iowa and others.
Not without significance is the fact
Commissioner Daniels is put in charge
of the western case. Daniels is from
New Jersey, Is a personal friend OF
the president, got his place on the
commission despite the fact progress
siye senators declared he was not
qualified for such a place by reason OF
his views, and in the eastern case was
consistently for the advances which
the railroads urged.

Washington, Jan. 29.-Observers of

means that in timeehe roads will grad

dividual rates is of little less concern
to shippers than general advances in

and understood and opportunity for
opposition is offered. But the in
creases in individual rates are likely
to go into effect with little notice.

Chicago, Jan. 20. = Hog prices ad-
vanced today, influenced chiefly by
curtailment of receipts.
Receipts here the first four days this
week aggregated 71,100, an increase of
IL, 600, compared with same period last
week and 51,4OO compared with CORE
spending time last year. Quality was
strictly good and the narrow range OF
, sales made it easier for country ship
pers to operate. but they should not get
excited and unload too many offerings
on the market during the next few
days.
Eleven markets received 10000 hogs
THURSDAY or $500 less than last
Thursday. 49, 400 more than year ago
and 200 less than two years ago Total
four days this week $4,000, or $4,000
more than same period last week, 49,
900 more than like time last year and
$1,000 more than corresponding four
days two years ago. Total for 1915 to
date 2,733,o0o or $4,000 more than
same period 1914 and 29S, 0oo more than
corresponding time 1913.
Cattle.
The offerings of cattle were scanty.
AS the demand for cattle. as we'll as
other grades of livestock is confined to
local packers, shippers are urged to
hold receipts down to very small
volume until the situation clears.
Packers are not in need Of very many
cattle and a run more than demand
calls for Will mean further price
breaks. The quarantine division of the
yards. where all stock is being yarded.
is able to hold only small proportion
of the regular run and congested
state will Gauge country shippers to
suffer greatly.
While some sales Thursday were
strong to higher than late Wednesday
they were not as good as early that
day, and show large declines when
compared with early in the week All
suffered badly. but the heavy grades,
even when of good quality, have been
relatively the slowest sellers. The year

ton stands now the SO steer is elirni-
mated from the market. and 1t takes
right good kinds to sell al 1913, and
heavy grades have to possess quality

Sheep.
Receipts of sheep and lambs were
not adequate to buyers wants.
Receipts should continue Of light
volume the balance of the week. as
conditions easily become congested in
the quarantine area Undoubtedly to-
DAYS frmness win encourage some un-
loading but anything like normal re-
ceipts will favor the buyers, and they
may raid prices. Although final clear

which did not get unloaded until after
noon.
