MADISON GRAIN MARKET.
SIOUX CITY LIVESTOCK MARKET

Sioux City. May 1S.-Receipts of
cattle for the opening day of the
week were rather light, so cars or
1000 head, including a few loads of
southern stockers billed through to
northern pastures.
Delegation included a fair quota
of killing grades. Trade ruled active
on all classes at prices quoted steady
to a dime higher. Best yearlings
sold at $40.
There was no improvement to be
noted in the market for stockers and
feeders. Traders did not make a very
good clearance last week and this
created a weak undertone and when
a trading basis was reached the gen.
eral verdict was that prices were just
about steady with the low time last
week.
Hogs sold at a discount of 5Q10c,
Bearish news from other centers in
fiuenced the local situation. Top for
the day was S7.45, while the bulk OF
sales ranged from $7.30@7.35.
The few loads of clipped lambs
that were at hand met a ready sale
at firm prices. Top sale reached
1920.

Railroads Can No Longer OPP

MANY CARRIERS AFFECTED
Decision Of Interstate Commerce
Commission ls Based on the Pro-
visions Of the Panama Canal Act
Recently Enacted by Congress.

Washington, May 1.-THE inter
state ommerc commission has or
dered that all steamship lines on the
great lakes must be divorced from
the railways which have been operat-
ing them.
The commission rendered its deci-
sion on an application the railways
made under the Panama canal act for
an extension of time during which
they might retain their interest in
the great lake vessel lines. Each Pc
titioner's application vas denied. The
railway and vessel lines affected are:

Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
and Grand Trunk of Canada.
Vessel Lines-Anchor, Lehigh Val
ley Transfer, Mutual Transit, West

The commission found that the
physical fact that ports of call were
being served in common by the boats
and the paralleling lines of the rail
ways established no competition be
tween the railways and their own boa
lines.

Forty Knot Missile Probably Hit
and Sunk the Lusitania.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE
Extreme Range Of a Torpedo 10 1000
Yards, but at 1000 Yards II 10 Much
More Ensctivs-variss In Length
From Fourteen to Nineteen Feet and
Has Machinery For Guidance.

New York.-The German torpedo or
torpedoes hat destroyed the Lusitania
were fired at a range Of not more than
1000 yards. and the torpedoes them
selves probably travelled at a speed In
excess OF forty knots. The submarine
or submarines from which the weap-
ons were discharged were submerged
not more than fifteen feet, and they
had plenty of time TO get the exact
range before the torpedoes were dis
charged. Furthermore. the torpedoes
were Of the most modern and power
full type and Of the highest possible
speed.
That Is the opinion OF many OF the
American officers. all Of whom have
closely followed the German subma-
rine activities since the underwater
war was started by the Germans sew
eral months ago.
The extreme range OF a torpedo. II
was explained by these officers. Is
about 1900 yards. but the evidence to
be had indicates that all the German
submarine work is being done at short
range. perhaps less than 1000 yards.
At the lesser range the speed OF the tor.
pedo Is greater and the aim correspond
ingly more accurate. At the 1000 yard
range the speed Of a modern torpedo
should be between ~twenty-seven and
thirty knots. ut 3.OO0 yards about thir-
ty-two knots and ut 1900 yards be.
tween thirty-three and thirty-six knots
At lesser ranges the speed may vary
from thirty-fve to forty knots.
One OF the American officers stated
that In Charles w. Domville- Flies
book, entitled submarine Engineering

Life Of a Torpedo" which describes

THIN CIGARS ARE SAFEST.
Chicago Doctors Advice to Smokers
and Motorists.

Chicago.-If you must smoke cigars
smoke panetelas In preference to the
clubhouse shape, and smoke them fast,
and IL you W an auto walk enough

These bits Of advice were given out
at the Chicago Medical society meet
ing by DR.. Joseph Miller and w. p.
Woley.
"Slow smoking allows more nicotine
to pass In with the smoke" said DR..
Miller. Combustion is greater In Gig
arettes than in cigars, therefore less
nicotine passes In with the smoke. 1t
Is greater with a thin cigar than a fat
