ket lined up It's weakness because OF
liberal receipts, common quality OF the

boosted the market.

there was a material increase In offer-
Ings from Colorado and Texas.
Beef Cattle

Of the supply was classed as fair 10
plam quality grass steers. and sold az

ers 80 to $15, stock cows and heifers
so 10 $3.50.
H0gs
Trade In hogs opened early at
strong prices compared with Satur-

AT SIT to 1925. A good many pigs
are expected In the next few weeks
from localities that are short on corn.
Sheep and lambs
Though sheep receipts, $4,000 were
not as large as week ago. they were
as large rs expected. Active demand
for killers boosted prices OF fat

THE PRESENT HIGH

Silver at more than double the price
per ounce In pre-war times seems 70
please everybody.
The high price stimulates produc-
ton and makes many mining districts

IL gold were suddenly given double
purchasing power there would be an
universal howl against gold monopoly.
Wheat has double purchasing power

LONDONERS OBJECT
 TO YANKEE

London, Aug. 6.-Managers of London's moving picture theatres are up in arms against an American film producing firm which has acquired sites for motion picture theatres in London. Their agitation reached the house of commons today when a member asked the president of the Board of Trade whether the govern ment was doing anything to stop it. He was told that it did not seem to be matter in which the government could interfere and called the mem- ber's attention to the fact that im- ported films are subject to duty.
 London picture theatre managers assert that they have been good GUS toners of the producing company and that the latter should not now plan to compete with them on large scale.

MEXICANS IN DILEMMA.

Mexico City, July 15:-(Corres- nondence of the Associated Press.)- Although the Mexican congress was called into extraordinary session on May 1, for the purpose of passing, among others, petroleum law that would carry out the provisions of article 27 of the new constitution, which nationalizes oil lands, up to the present time the question has not been brought up for discussion in e;ther the senate or the chamber ot deputies.
 Fl Democrata states that the two netroleum commissions appointed by the lower house are considering the objection raised by the foreign oil in terests that Article 27 is in direct op- nosition to Article IA of the constl- tution, which prohibits retroactive legislation. .
 Unofficial reports are to the effect that President Carranza has washed his hands of the matter and has put ;t up to congress to find solution If this theory is based on fact, ac- cording to high officer of ar American oil corporation, the pro longed delay of congress in taking up the oil question would indicate that its leaders are having difficult time to reconcile the provisions o1 the constitution.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calf, Oct. o.
"The loss of Shantung will not affect
the economic and industrial growth
of China" declared Doctor Paul
Reinsch, former United States minis
ter to China, upon his arrival from
the Orient today. "The effect will be
political solely. The people will live
under another government; but all in
dustrial and commercial operations
will continue just as they have been
conducted heretofore. Some portion
of profit from such operations will be
diverted to Japan, because it will be
the usufruct Of Japanese capital in
vested there and that would be the
case were political control restored to
China, because the commercial and in
dustrial development taking place
would need outside capital for its fur
therance in any event, and that out
side capital would naturally be drawn
there from Japan"

sumo the expense rather than suffer

The doctor viewed her tongue with
alarm. He slandered the action of her
pulse. He asked all the questions in
the catechism of medical lore.
"Sir," said the eminent pillist, "your
wife needs a change" The poor man
bowed his head in his hands and al
lowed two large tear drops to race to
the tip Of his nose and dive off.

Then the great doctor left the un-

and calling up the phonograph place,

large piece Of glass I have found"
His employer said 1t loked very wet
and jOkingly told him to put it on the
back Of the stove to dry. He did so,
and presently came running back with
the partly melted ice in his hand.
