Novel Traction System,

In the town of Bahia, on the east
coast of Africa, the private car ques-
ton has been settled to the satisfac-
ton of every white resident, by pro-
vidng a private street car for each of
them The cars are pushed by a native
black and are small. They are fitted
with a wide seat, which will hold two
persons. The tracks of this private
road lead thru the main streets of the
town, with switches to the stores and
clubs Each owner of car has a
switch to his yard and boards his car
in the same manner as an automobile
lst. The ruaI is financed ~ each 1aT
owner. who pays a certain sum zach
year for upkeep. The road Is used
for no other purpose than to carry the
owners on their outing or calling ex-

Chicago. March 16.-Lack of ship
ping demand brought about decline
today in the price Of hogs.
Cattle.
Cattle offerings We're of poor quality.
The big western run Monday was due
to mud and snow, Missouri river feed
ers being up to their ears in muck. In
many places cattle had to be shipped
because hauling feed to them was i'm
possible.
Supply was heavy all around the
market circle, Missouri river points
getting lot of cattle that were not
able to move last week owing to the
storm in that territory. There were
5000 at the six points, against $4,000
last week and 10000 year ago, Gre
ating a surplus as the stocker move
ment in the west is still restricted by
quarantine regulation. 1t was case
of enough cattle to go around and some
to spare.
A year ago $4,000 arrived and the
market was slumpy. especially on $f.io
@s4O grades which predo1ninated. AT
that time retail cost of beef was high
and the public was protesting by let
ting it alone. The best cattle sold at
1885.
Mondays heavy run east and west
was decidedly freakish, muddy feed
lots being largely responsible and repe-
tition is improbable. BY Wednesday
the market ought to acquire stride
and get the full benefit of the eastern
outlet.
Sheep and lambs proved none too
plentiful.
Many strictly good lots of fed west
ems landed at 1915, while 1855 was
paid for a choice class. but market
topping kinds were not available in
this division Other good kinds sold at
s9.5O@e60, but those at 1925 and lower
were neglected entirely by some buyers.
Culls Of good class sold mainly at IS.
with d few &c outsiders at 1925. while
fair ones made $3.50. Shippers bought
fairly decent 74-pound arrivals at $3.50.
Shorn westerns at $3.50 were very de-
sirable and found comparative early
outlet. Inability of packers and sellers
to agree upon a trading basis for many
wooded Colorados and westerns de-
| layed the clearance, but hardly any
thing went over unsold. Natives at
! se2569.5O were most numerous and
/ few sold any higher, while some went
at 50 and lower, with most seconds be-
| low So.

Chicago, March 10. Diminishing of
stocks in Europe tended today to lift
the wheat market hers. The trans
Atlantic visible supply total was re-
ported as showing decrease OF BAYOU
bushels as against an increase of TO-
1000 bushels q week age, and an
increase of /, 100000 bushels year ago.
There were also advices that Portugal
had purchased 100000 bushels in Ar
gentina and that 100000 bushels was
being taken out of store at Kansas City
to go to the gulf for export. After
opening q to 1A cents higher, prices
reacted to a moderate extent.
Heavy sales to realize profits led
afterward to number of setbacks
The close was weak at Is to 1 cent
net decline.
Corn suffered from lack of support.
THE buying was only scattered. Better
weather also counted against the bulls.
Opening prices, which varied from 4
off to " advance, was followed by a
sag all around.
Slowness of shipping call from the
east kept the market depressed. The
<lose, tho, was steady at n to Is under
last night.
Export demand gave relative steadi-
ness to oats, as compared with corn.
