CHICAGO Hor,e Market.

Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE Tuesday
horse market was somewhat slower
than the previous session. Demand
was less urgent today and buyers went
after the crop in a slow manner. On
the Monday market. while the demand
was not overly large, it was of vol
unie enough to move bulk Of offerings.
but today the trade lacked the life. The
days receipts were moderate, but a
large run was unloaded here Monday
which goes a long way in filling the
demand unless OF great proportion
Tho the trade is running rather
slow at present, prices are holding well.
In the army grades action is noted as
the demand from the several inspectors
is large enough to cause offerings TO
move freely. Eastern buyers have been
rather small competitors so far this
week, but with the increased offerings
and prices no stronger they should be
taking good numbers from here.
Receipts for the first two days Of tho
week total about 1900 head, against
1.761 for same days last week, 2,007 a
year ago and LII for corresponding
period two years ago. Quotations:
Poor Choice

Chicago, Feb. 16.--Crop damage re-
ports from the southwest, especially
Missouri and Kansas, tended today TO
lift the price of wheat. Higher quota
tons from Liverpool were also Of ad-
vantage to the bulls. According to an
authority British supplies for the time
being were inadequate. The opening
here, which ranged from a shade off
to 1s94 advance, was followed by a
substantial upturn all around.
The wheat was unsettled, ~ OILS to
2 cents net higher, with May at 1.S0 Z
@1.30S and July at 1889.
Corn.
Corn rose in value owning chiefly to
the fact that receipts We're smaller
than expected. 1t was aid that far
mers were holding and that besides
there was a scarcity of cars. After
opening a sixteenth to Il higher, the
market reacted trifle and then scored
sharp gains.
The close was steady at l to IA

Oats.
Oats reflected the action of the corn
market. Trade was light.
Provisions.
Higher prices for hogs and grain
carried provisions upward. Shorts
bought freely.

Masonic temple. Phone 1881
Chicago, Feb. 16.-Wheat-Demand
for cash was the feature in causing
continued firmness and a gradual i'm
provement in price. Pressure was
limited to profit taking sales by com
mission house trade which, earlier in
the day, was on the buying side. Local
shorts also covered freely. Hard
wheat at the Gulf Is in such demand
that from discount under May it has
advanced to a premium.
Corn-Corn advanced early into the
price at which offers were selling last
night and from then until noon the
range was narrow. Commission
houses and cash interests were the
best buyers and at outside prices
considerable profit taking and some
short selling by local traders checked
the advance.
Oats-Oats were helped by othel
grains and by serious damage reports
in regard to the winter crop Of Texas
Receipts are light and demand good
Quality shows slight Improvement.

BROhN PLEADS GUILTY.,
Express Driver Who Stole Package Of
Money to Be Sentenced.

Mount Pleasant. Feb. 1.-THE new
court room was packed to its capacity
with the curious when Oscar Bruhn
was brought before the judge to enter
his plea upon a. charge OF bezzle-
ment. Bruhn is the Adams Express
driver who took a package Of cur
rency from the express messenger on
the train several weeks ago and failed
to account for same. He made his
getaway and was arrested several days
later in Salt Lake and brought back to
this city. When he was arraigned last
week Judge Hale appointed NJ J. c..
McCold as his attorney and MIR. NC
Cold entered a plea Of guilty for his
client and it was agreed that sentence
be pronounced today. The Judge has
no discretion in fixing the length Of
the sentence under the indeterminate
law of not to exceed FIVE years. It is
then up to the board OF parole to de-
eide how long the young man shall
stay in the penitentiary.

PRICES IN CHICAGO DEVELOP

SCARCITY ELSEWH ERE.
OFFERINGS SELL
AND 10 CENTS HIGHER
Cattle Offerings Scarce and Prices De-
velop Firmness-GeneraI Market rs
Week-Sheep Meet With Ready Sale
Too Many Lambs on Market.

Chicago, Feb. 16.-Hog prices de-
veloped strength today Influenced by
the fact that receipts in eastern mar
kets were meager.
During the first two days of the
week there have been about 11I,S00
hogs received at Chicago, being 20,S00
more than same days last week, $1,000
more than year ago and $500 more
than corresponding period two years
ago.
Inferior to good mixed packing hogs
sold Tuesday at 7.S04S.05. Mediums
and butchers went at S.05GS.15. Poor
to good heavy packers cleared at 100
GS.15, and rough heavy packers at
7.6547S5. Light-weights sold at $50
$500. Selected, packing and shipping
lots ranged at 8.021s 6S.30.
Eleven markets received $4,000
hogs Tuesday, or 1900 more than last
Tuesday. $1,000 more than a year ago
and 54.100 more than two years ago.
Total thus far this week 33S,0o0, or
$1,000 more than same period last
week, $4,000 more than like time last
year and $4,000 more than corre-
spending two days two years ago.
Total for 1916 to date 5,61S,0oo. or
1.155, 900 more than same period 1915
and $4,000 more than corresponding
time 1914.
Cattle.
Cattle offerings were scarce and
were firm.
While the general advance on steers
since the low spot last week is 25 cents
per cwt, some stuff shows as much
gain as 40 cents. The 6.O016-15 grades
have been marked up sharply. The
proportion Of steers under 100 has
been reduced in consequence of the
recent break and what little stock
cattle demand has been in evidence
has exerted a healthy influence. New
conditions are responsible for the
creation of new class known as S. O..
cattle meaning slaughter only
These are ineligible to the feeder out
let. but will be wanted by killers with

Heavy cattle commanded no respect
at the stock yards year ago: now
the are earning top prices. While S.7o
@9.s5 has been paid for finished bull
locks at Chicago. the 7.50@S.5o grad
have comprised the bulk of supply, and
at Missouri river markets few cattle
have been good enough to beat 500
Killers have pursued their stereotyped
winter policy of grabbing low priced
steers, ignoring condition, the result
being that the product Of such cattle
has cost more on the hooks than the
beef steers appraised LOO per cwt.,
higher on the hoof. Packers can al
ways find market for cheap beef, and
get their money out of hides and
offal.
Sheep.
Sheep met with a. ready sale, but
lambs were overplentiful.
