SIOUX CITY LIVE STOCK MARKET

Sioux City, Dec. 4.-The market
opened slow, and lacked the spirit
that characterized the session yester-
day. Prices, however, failed to go
much lower, principally because of
the closeness to the minimum at
which the bulk o fthe hogs have been
bought the last several weeks.
Chicago reported a run of $1,000
hogs with a steady market and a top
of $17.S5. This is practically at the
limit at Chicago, and is at a smaller
margin over the prices paid at Sioux
City than is usual. Packers again
bought the greater part of the hogs,
but shippers showed better relative
activity than for the last week and
were in the market for a good num-
Der of hogs.
In general the market was slow
and averaged around sc lower than
that of Monday. Top hogs sold at
$17.45, and the bulk of sales was
made at s17.05@17.30.

Kidney weakness brings these dis

DEMAND FOR KAISER
Allies to Ask Extradition From

Believed That Dutch Government VIII
Put No Obstacles in Way Of
His Surrender.

Liverpool, Dec. 4.-Attorney Gen.
an interview that the British war cabi-
ne has decided unanimously t de-
mand extradition of the former kaiser
from Holland.
A demand for the surrender of Will
liam Hohenzollern will be submitted
to the Netherlands government in the
name of all the Allied cabinets, ac-
cording to the Express.
Wilson Offers Suggestions.
The views of France and Italy have
been fully communicated to the Brit
ish government and President Wilson
has made suggestions relative to pro-
cedure In the case.
Authority is claimed by the Express
for the statement that although there
are some little differences as to points
of law among Allied ~jurists, the con
ference In Downing street revealed
u%narimity relative to the bringing of
the former German emperor to an
swer for his crimes.
Considered az Pirate.
The opinion is held that Holland
will not be disposed to put obstacles
in the way.
She will not be asked to deliver
Herr Hohenzollern under the ordinary
extradition laws, but his status will
be considered analogous to that of a
pirate or slave trader, who Is not re
garded as entitled to sanctuary In any
country.
