BEEF STEERS

HOGS-Receipts of hogs were Of true
holiday proportions, only sixty-four cars or
about 5000 head, putting in an appearance.
This Is less than half as large as two weeks
ago, and some $500 smaller than for the
corresponding Monday q year ago 1t was
the smallest New Years day run here since
three years ago.
The market was almost an exact repeti-
ton Of the trade last Tuesday. the day aft
er Christmas. As was tho case then Of
ferings were too light to give packers, who
row, and the result was a sluggish packer
trade. While shippers orders were light.
they took about fourth of the small run.
which Is about THAR usual share, paying
prices that were fully steady to, IL anything,
little higher
When It was all said and done the packer
market averaged up pretty close to steady.
Buyers did not make any bids at all for
a while, and when they finally did start
out It was to try to buy hogs at prices
that were as much as 10c lower. These
offers were eventually raised in most cases
and when the bulk Of the hogs sold It
was at figures that were steady or nearly
so. Movement was anything but active,
even on the better classes, and. as was to
be expected with buyers so Indifferent, any
thing at all undesirable was extremely dull.
The market, such as 1t was, averaged up
pretty much the same rs Saturday, ship
pers being, II anything. a little stronger as
a general thing while the packer market
had an easier tone all through. Bulk sold
at $9.656l0.00. There were no choiIe
heavy hogs on offer, the top Of $10.15 being
a dime below the high mark of $10.25
made on prime, weighty hogs Saturday.

Correspondence Of Tho Associated Presa)
Picking, Nov. N.-France and China
have become involved IN hopeless
diplomatic muddle as result of the
forcible seizure by France of an ad-
dition to its concession in Ten T sin

in these dispatches.
Sir John Jordan, the British minis
ter and dean of the diplomatic corps
at Peking, attempted to bring about
compromise by proposing to con-
vert the disputed territory. which con-
sists of about $50 acres, into Sino-
French settlement to be administered
jointly by the French and the Chinese
The Chinese press and much of the
Chinese public opposed such a settle

fcials was so harsh that the negotia-
tons came to an end The British
minister has left for England on a
four months vacation, and the ITEM
tsin dispute is at a standstill.
Spasmodic runs have been made by
Chinese on French banks both in
Picking and Tien-tsin, and many of

Japanese Friend Of
Wilson Lauds Him

rrespondence of The Associated Press
Toxic, Nov. 2l.-The reelection of
President Wilson has caused DR..
Inazo Nitobc of the Imperial univer-
sity to write some "reminiscences of
the days when he and Mr.. Wilson
were fellow students in the graduate
department of political and economic
science in Johns Hopkins university.
"Mr. Wilson showed even then that
he was a man apart" said DR.. Nj
tobe. when he went to Johns Hop
kins he specialized in political econ
omy. He was about % years of age,
four years older than |, and older
than most of his class. His demeanor
was always gentlemanly and digni-
fed, and he always impressed US by
his maturity. In our seminars the
students would often turn to him on
a debated question and ask What
about it, Wilson,"
DR.. Nitobe recalled that President
Wilson was a great admirer of Bage-
hot, the English essayist, and that
when he wrote his Congressional
Government" he had in mind Bage-
hots phrase, Parliamentary govern
ment," or governments in which the
executive work is strongly influenced
by committees of the legislature. Mr..
Wilson often read papers in the semi
mars. which latter appeared in his
book and which caused him to be
widely known.
"On one OCCASION explained Prof.
Nitrobe, "our professor gave me
'Aristotle's Politics. the main points
of which | was to tabulate When |
came to Aristotle's references to milk
as an essential in the proper nourish-
ment of the young, ! was in a guam
Diary whether or not | should put it
down. ! did so, but was somewhat
chagrined when my fellow students
laughed at my including milk as one
of the essential points of Aristotle
educational scheme. Wilson, how
ever, took it most seriously, and | re-
member that was greatly comforted
by seeing him copy my tabulation
with great care. And in book called
The State, which Mr.. Wilson wrote
later, and which has been translated
into Japanese, | was happy to dis
cover that he gave a resume of Arts
totles political doctrines, and that the
points which he brought out were al
most identical with the tabulaton
which had caused the other men to
laugh"

JUST HIRE YOUR COMPANY
Escorts for Companions Cheerfully
Furnished by New York's
Lonely Club"


If you are in New York and feel
the need of companionship cali up
the Lonely club. Ask for Mr.. Wund-
er, who is its organizer and also the
secretary of the West Side Young
Mems Christian Association. II you
are young woman the Lonely club
will furnish you with an escort who
>is guaranteed to be mice young
man" and who can dance and who
knows the best shows in town and
will positively not even mention
cabarets.
And if you are young man and
lonesome the accommodating Mr..
Wunder will obtain a charming girl
companion for you. You will not
have to worry for fear she will light
cigarette or ask you to order her
a cocktail, for she will be certified to
by the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation.
But you will have to pay for your
escort or companions time at rate
of so much an hour and all the ex-
penses of the entertainment will be
yours. Even the handsome, athletic
young men who are furnished to lone
7 some young women upon request will
positively refuse to pay car fare or to
tip the waiter.
Mr.. Wunder says his scheme has
two advantages. One is that it per-
mits young people visiting New York
! for the first time to have the right
sort of associates. The other ad-
vantage is that it helps young men
and women who are either students
or salaried persons to pick up some
money on the side and also to have
some social diversion.-New York

BRITISH CONTINUE
GAINS ON SOMME

British Headquarters in France. via
London - The ridge overlooking Ba-
paume from the northwest, which has
come to be looked upon by the British
as a sort of promised land ever since
the battle OF the Somme began last
July. has passed in the hands OF Gen
eral Haig's troops. For the first time
since the great struggle on this front
opened the British have the advantage
of the highest ground and can now look
down upon the famous German strong
hold and wide extent of the country
beyond.
British officers believe that they
are now in a position to take Ba-
paume whenever the word is given.
In this latest forward movement the
British have taken possession of the
noted Loupart wood. consisting OF
great clumps of trees situated on the
shoulder of the high ridge and over
looking the entire Somme battle front.
