u. S. OFFICERS GUARD
INTERNED STEAMERS

New York, April 3.-Before Presi-
dent Wilson was more than half
through with his address to Congress
last night, 500 armed federal officers
Secret Service man and customs in
pectors-invaded Hoboken, N. j., and
took UP their station on the piers at
which the steamships Of the Hamburg
American and North German Lloyd
lines have been war bound since the
start of the European conflict.
Almost simultaneously, Theodore
Wolfe, a German machinist, was ar
rested at his home in Jersey City, ac-
cused of having had dynamite, picric
acid and other explosives in his pos
session on March 8. Wolfe's arrest is
an outgrowth Of the arrest several

Daggett before the members of the
Bridgeport Art League in the STRAIT
field Ball room. Mrs. Daggett, who
is an accomplished musician, has
found that contrary to the opinion of
most bird experts, birds do have mel
ody in their songs. OF course the
bird doesn't sing the whole selection,
he contents himself with singing a
few notes, or a motif and one has to
finish it for him. Mrs. -Daggett is a
WHISTLER and pianist and she illus
trates her talk by giving the notes of
the bird as she heard him and then
accompanying them on the piano with
the song or opera which, it suggested
to her. Among her illustrations wree
some from birds not usually consider
ed singers, the sparrw, the owl, and
wonderful to relate, the rooster. Not
the usual call of the, rooster, but one
which he uses in the early morning
when summing himself.
Mrs. Daggett called attention to the
fact that most of the operas have
many bird songs in them, Wagner's
music in particular, being filled with
them.

London, April 3.-Under the heading
Brothers in Arms the Pail Mall Ga
zette says today of President Wilson's
speech:
1.-THE president frames the issue in
q setting calculated to stir the deepest
emotions of the American people. The
Russian revolution enables him to
commend it to them as a conflict be-
tween the virtues of democracy and
the crimes of democracy.
America enters the war without
reservation. Her attitude will be well
come both for the substantial aid she
will bring and for the community of
spirit which she will furthers among
the fire nations of the world 1t is
great satisfa ction to be joined thus
with the nation carrying so much of
our blood in crusade worthy of it's

MUST GO LIMIT IF WE
FIGHT, SAYS STONE

Washington, April 3-Chairman
Stone, of the Senate Foreign ReIa-
tons Committee said:
II am against a declaration Of war
but when it is declared, I will be a
war eagle screaming as loud as the
rest Blood is thicker than water,
and no matter what opinions a man
might have about the need for war,
any other position would be con.
temptible, and no American would
contemplate it.
''War is not play, and when we go
into it, I believe we should go in te
the limit with men and money If it
takes one million men, all right; il
i. takes five million men all right; if
it takes ten billion dollars or fifty bill.

use playing around the edges of war"

THE DENVER MARKETS.

Denver Union Stock Yards, April
9.-Receipts of cattle here last week
were liberal and demand good Prize
es closed the week 25c to 40c higher
on good fat steers while good cows
and heifers were around l5c to 25c
higher, Today the supply was light
and prices are 15c to 25c higher
again. Good beef steers are quoted
here from s10.50 to $1150 and
prime steers are quoted at S12. Cows
of good quality sold today at $9.7O,
the highest price ever paid on this
market, and choice to fancy heifers
are quoted up to SO. Pretty good
killing cows are selling at 80 and
$3.50 and fair cows at SS.25 to 50.
Bulls are bringing 81 to $3.50 for
good ones and veal calves of good
quality are selling up to $3.50.
Feeder and stoCker trade is a little
quiet. The high price of feed and
continued wintry weather is holding
purchasers back and the trade is
only fairly active.
There is good opportunity
offered here at the present time to
get good stock cattle at prices that
will no doubt look cheap later in the
season when grass is started suiti-
ciently to encourage the buyers to
get busy. Pretty good steers are
bringing $S25 to $S.75 and choice
. heavier steers are selling from 50
to $9.S5.
Hogs are steadily going higher
with tops today at $3.50 for fair
quality stun and choice to fancy
hogs would have sold up close to
SIG. The demand here is strong
but supply only fairly good.
Sheep demand is good and prices
are higher than a week ago. Good
fat lambs are selling at SLABS to
$14S5 and good ewes are bringing
s11.25 to s11.65. The supply is light
here as feed yards are rapidly becom-
ing depleted.
