regular; a few cars OF the best grades

ST. LOUIS, March 2T-Horses--A
number of eastern buyers are on the
market for ice wagon chunks, light
express horses and drafters and on
such kinds the trade is shade strong
er than it WAS the previous week.
Southerners, on the other hand, have
shown a corresponding decline in
value, and liices throughout average
about steady with week ago. The
eastern market Is the best it has
been this season. and all kinds OF
useful work animals are bringing
good prices. Horse quotations:

Mules-The market was slow al
fair and barely steady with the prev.
ious weeks decline. Fresh receipts
We're light, but commission dealers
carried over great many, and
the supply consequently was much
too generous for the limited de-
mand. The market is sharply lower
than two weeks ago, and from all IN
d1cations 1t will remain that way, fol
dealers think the trade is about over
for the season Considerable demand
exists for miners and pitters, and
these are selling higher at this time.

Correspondent
LONDON, March 28.-Undue optim-
ism regarding the immediate checking
Of the German rush must be guarded

. further push, before the allied re-
serves can be prepared for a gigantic
counter blow.
