Lumber Dealers
Advised To Make
Shipments Early

Consumers and dealers Of lumber OF
the South have received orders to
make all shipments possible this month
in order to take advantage of the pres
ent freight rates before the advance au-
thorized by the interstate commerce
commission, goes into effect the first
of September, according to Armour G..
Bowen, district manager or the South
ern Hardwood Traffic association at
New Orleans, who arrived in Memphis
Tuesday
Mr.. Bowen is in Memphis to confer
the increased rates and will probably
be in Memphis for several days.
Both Bowen and j, H. Townshend,
secretary-manager of the association.
with headquarters in Memphis, are OF
the opinion that the increased rate will
bring many consumers of lumber and
especially those who use the lower
grades of lumber, to the South, where
they will be nearer the source OF sup
that will be selected by the Northern
lumber consumers in the opinion OF
the lumber officials.
Mr.. Townshend said that after look
ing over the decision OF the interstate
commerce commission, copies of which
were received by him Tuesday, he was
pleased to know that forest products
had Jared better in the decision than
had been expected, even though the
lumbermen did lose their request for q
seven-cent maximum rate.
Shipments of low grade lumber will
be greatly restricted by the ruling, he
said, and this would undoubtedly force
many of the consumers nearer to the
source of supply to avoid the high rate.

CITY REFUSES TO
CONSIDER STRIKE
Arbitration Differences by
Board Declined-Fight
Seems Ended.

Arbitration Of differences between
former members Of the fire department
and city officials as suggested by a
committee representing the Central
Trades and Labor council and Athe
railway brotherhoods, was declined by
the city commission in a lengthy but
courteous communication forwarded late
Tuesday to the committee.
With this action taken by the city ii
is believed that efforts of representa-
tives of organized labor to have the
city recognize the firemen's union and
reinstate the former firemen will be
brought to an end. The labor commit
tee presented to the commissioners a
written communication suggesting the
appointment of three arbftratorS by the
city and three by organized labor, they

sbfIfate the differences. This commune

"Gentlemen-At a recent meeting OF
the executives of the various trade
unions and railway brotherhoods, the
question of the differences between the
fire fighters and the city was given
earnest consideration, and after thor
ough discussion II was decided unani-
mously to make the following PROPOSE
ton to the commission
THAT there be appointed an arbitra-
ton board of six members, three to be
selected by the commission, three by
the executives of the unions and rail-
way brotherhoods, they TO take up and
investigate the whole situation. in an
endeavor to reach an agreement AS to
what steps should be taken in final
settlement of the affair; further, that
in case Of the six thus appointed can
not agree, they shall call in a seventh
man, the decision of the board as Sc
constituted to be accepted by the COM
mission and the firemen.
This proposition Is made not only
in the interest of the firemen but also
in the interest of the entire citizenship
of Memphis, who are vitality concerned
as to the quality of the fire depart
ment. We therefore ask a careful con-
sideration of this renewed effort at ad-
justment on our part by the commission
in the interest of the whole public
which it represents.
I'm view of the Importance of this
matter, we ask that each member Of
the city commission vote on this propo.

CATTLE TRADE ACTIVE, HIGHER
 HOGS LOWER; SHEEP STRONG


 With cattle receipts here about 1000 less than a week ago, and prospects that receipts next week will be light, owing to the National election, trade ruled active at strong to 25 cents high CT prices. Fat cattle were in light supply and there was a good demand for stock and feeding grades. Hog prices were 15 to and25 cents lower and the lowest since early February 1917. Sheep and lambs sold ready at strong prices.
 Today's Receipts
 Receipts today were 22,000 cattle, 300 hogs, and 5000 sheep, compared with 29.000 cattle, 1000 hogs, and 5000 sheep a week ago and $500 cattle, s250 hogs and 1850 sheep year ago.
 Beef Cattle
 Killers we're fairly anxious for all classes of fat cattle at strong to 25 cents higher prices. The market showed the first activity in several weeks past. The improved condition here was more noticeable as Chicago quoted a dull and lower market Some short fed steers sold at $12.75 to $13.- and better steers brought $14.00 to IS. Nothing choice to prime was offered Most of the common light weight grass steers sold at $500 to $9.OO and the better grassers brought s9.50 to $11.75. Killers had to meet feeder competitor on the good quality -1O5O to HOO pound steers Cows and heif- CTS were quoted strong to 25: cents higher, and veal calves were steady.
 Stockers. and Feeders
 The percent of stockers and feeders in proportion to total receipts of cat tie was liberal, but there was an ac- tive demand and prices ruled strong CT. Receipts from the Panhandle and Southwest were liberal and quality was good. Eastern feeders are in creasing their orders. Last week, 31.- 900 thin cattle were shipped back to country points.
 Though receipts were moderate, the decline in hogs continued and prices reached a new low level for the. year and to the lowest position since early February. 1917. Today's decline was 15 to 25 cents, top price $13.10 and bulk of sales s12.50 to $13.0O.-i 2 Pigs sold up to $13.25. Other markets re-, ported sharp declines. Chicago scratched $13.25 early, but later none sold above $13.00e Here at the decline packers bought freely. Sheep and Lambs
 Light receipts brought stronger prices for lambs Sheep were fully steady. Best lambs sold at $12,00 to $12.35 and ewes $500 to $5.60 Feeding lambs brought $11 90 to $12.00 Those lambs will have to make purchases in the next two weeks as the run will be over by the middle of November.
