CATTLE.-For the past several
weeks we have endeavored to empha-
size what the competition of Texas
grass cattle would mean to natives,
and have tried to make it plain enough
to stimulate the movement of short
fed and in-between native cattle IN
priority to the coming of Texas offer
ings, with the hopes of enlightening
stockmen to the extent that they
would take advantage of circumstanc-
es and conditions, to dispose of what
holdings they had that they intended
marketing soon. Many of our friends
and customers have followed our adj
vice and have disposed of their cattle
at prices that are anywhere from 81
to 81 higher than they are at this
time, but a goodly amount of cattle
were held back and are now selling
upon the market, which bears out our
prediction very closely in every re-
spect. The plain facts in the case
are that a general decline of Toe per
cwt. on all classes of cattle thus far
this week shows the general market
on killing stuff to be right around 81
per cwt. lower than it was a month or
six weeks ago, and grades for in
stance are at least SO to $3.50 per cwt.
lower than they were at the high time
of the year. Gamer stuff and trashy
mixed cattle are selling higher in
proportion than the good killing stuff,
and it may be well to mention that
while the better grades of killing suff
have sagged downward, the grades
lust mentioned are around soc to 75c
per cwt. higher than a month or six
weeks ago. The declines referred to
on killing cattle have likewise gov
erned the trading on stockers and
feeders, and since the disposition Of
the market has been to it's lower level
it is an obstacle to work off satisfac-
torily anything in the stocker and
feeder line, unless particularly suited
as to requirements, which at times
have been very exact. All indlca-
tions lead us to believe that the move
ment of cattle throughout the sum-
mer, or balance of the year, will be
heavier than usual for the time of
wear, and we again wish to 60 on
record as emphasizing to holders of
medium flesh cattle who are figuring
on marketing them soon, to not defer
shipping until the movement of Texas
grass stock is on in full sway. 4

1T WAS A QUIET MAY DAY
Growing of Queens and Other Cele-
brations Few in Topeka.

Nature adorned herself in her gayest
robes and called forth her loveliest
smile for May day, but in spite of 1t
all Topeka plodded on her weary way
as usual. Except in a very few locali
ties in the city, no one seems to have
remembered that the winding of the
May pole has for generations been one
of the features of the first day of
May. Even the school children seem
to have lacked the initiative to stage
this celebration.
Perhaps it was the effect of the
night before, when all Topeka stayed
up until midnight to welcome the
10th engineers in their Homecoming
and see them off to Camp Funston
again. At Washburn the festivities
were postponed on account of wet
grounds and in the public schools the
day passed without event, except con-
tributions of numerous flowers to the
teachers desks. In fact, there was
no official observance of May day, but
unofficially the pupils of both the
grade and high schools exhibited the
spirit of the day.

WORLD NEWS SUMMARY
Press Review of Peace
Table Developments, and of Po-
IiticaI and Military Situation.
CBx the Associated Press.l

If the work of carrying out the last
phase of the peace negotiations progresses
dispatches. the treaty ending the great
war probably will be signed early in the
week beginning May % The treaty will
be presented to the Germans next Monday
afternoon.
Reports from the peace conference indi-
cate that it is to be a 'victors peace.
except the merest formalities when the
treaty is handed over. Fifteen days will
be given the enemy to consider the treaty
with an additional five days or a week
for the. exchange of views between the
allied and German delegations.
Peace by May %.
Thus at the latest. if present plans are
followed, May 81 should see peace reign
ing once more between Germany apd the
allied and associated governments.
A secret plenary session of the con-
ference will be held Saturday, while on
Monday a meeting will be held for the
organization of the League of Nations
Italy still is not represented at the confer
ence, but her ambassador is invited to at
tend such conferences the regular dele
cation from that country would attend.
He has been asked. formally. to be pres
ent on Monday to represent his nation at
the formal launching of the League of
Nations.
Meet BeIgium's Demands
The council of three held a meeting yes
terday and besides considering the dis
position of the German cables gave Bel
GUM a priority claim $500. 000.000 of the
reparation money to be received from Ger
many.
Germanys delegation exchanged ere
dentials with allied representatives yes
terday, the meeting being very brief and
informal. Count Won Brockdorff Rantzau
the German foreign secretary. appeared
almost overcome with the sense of his
country's defeat when confronted by the
allied delegation.
The city of Munich. held by soviet forces
has not yet been taken by German gov
eminent troops in spite of rumors indi-
eating it had fallen. 1t is hemmed in by
the government soldiers, however. and it
seems a general attack upon it will not
be long delayed.
