sheep--A very small run OF sheep and
lambs was on the early market this morn
ing, with prospects for fairly moderate
supply before the close. Little was done on
the first rounds, both packer and feeder
buyers holding off for further arrival of
stock. Fat lambs were rather scarce and
not very desirable. A few odds and ends
changed hands at about steady prices. There
was liberal supply OF fat wethers with a
firm undertone to the market generally.
They were not sold by 1880 o'clock. Feed
ers were slow, with apparently little de-
mand at the outset They were nominally
steady. Fat ewes looked steady with FRI

NEUTRALS CONSIDER WAYS
TO BOOST OWN INTERESTS
Possessed of Desire TO Take Part In
Arrangements When Peace
Is Declared

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-With
the expressed belief that the war
would soon be over, representatives
of the Scandinavian countries at
conference at Stockholm in July rec
commended that the neutrals should
take common action to save their in
terests both now and after the war.
This information has been brought
to Washington in dispatches which
tell of an official memorandum is
sued by the Swedish government in
which it was pointed out that the
neutrals had the same interest in n
lasting peace as the belligerents and
in the establishment of an interna-
tional judicial regime and proposed
that the neutrals arrive at n mutual
agreement concerning their rights
Among the subjects discussed at
the conference were the treatment of
submarines, dirigibles and airplanes,
the disposition by the warning powers
of neutral prizes, the right of asylum
for prizes, the establishment and use
of blacklists, the commercial policies
of neutrals during and after the war
and the adjustment of economic af-
fairs.
