CATTLE MARKET
REMAINS STEADY

Substantial gains have been made
during the last week in prices for
most classes of live stock and farm
products. 1t is expected that the
market, except those for butter, eggs
and vegetables, will show more
strength during the next three months
than they have during the last SIM
liar period
Hog Market Steady.
After reaching the peak at $11.25
in Chicago, the hog market suffered
slight decline, but recovered al
most promptly. The market appears
to be on a solid foundation. Aver
age weights continue heavy, and
there is premium on light
weights.
Stocks of hog cured meats at lead
ing middle western slaughtering
points on March / were reported at
314, 100000 pounds, compared with
24O,OOO,OOO pounds on February l
and SAT 100000 pounds a year ago.
Stocks of lard also increased during
February. The total on March 1 was
100000 pounds, compared with
As, 100000 pounds on February 1 and
67OO0,O00 pounds year ago.
Cattle Market Good.
Beef steers, butcher cows and
heifers are about 25 cents lower than
week ago. Indications point to
the fact that the supply of cattle on
feed is not excessive and it seems
probable that the market will con-
tinue firm, with temporary recessions
from time to time.
Sheep Market Uncertain.
Following an unexpected advance
late in February, muttons have de-
clined. 1t is expected that there will
be violent fiuctuations in the sheep
market for some little time.
Wheat Steadier.
Recent government reports of large
amounts of grain held ON farms is
having a tendency to remove some |
of the bullish edge from the wheat |

that the worlds supply and demand |

WITNESSES HIDDEN, SOLICITOR REFUSES
 ID INFORM COURT
Judge Holds Tate's Position Is Admissible, Due to Threats Made Against Mems Lives.
 Bivens Murder Case

Whereabouts of Dan Lattimer. Lloyd Little and Wick Ware, ma terial witnesses in the cases of Charlie Milligan and W. s. Neville charged with murder of John Biv- ems, still remains a secret.
 Judge William E. Fort declined to compel Solicitor Joseph R. Tate to divulge the whereabouts of the men yesterday following hearing of testimony on the motion filed Tuesday by John Altman, attorney for the defendants.
 The motion filed by MT. Altman in an effort to force the solicitor to make known the whereabouts of the men, alleged that these wit nesses were being held by the so- licitor or the sheriff in order to prevent process summoning them to appear as witnesses for the de- fense being served on them.
 MT. Tate told the court that to disclose the whereabouts of the men would probably result in their be- ing assassinated.
 Judge Fort ruled that unless the witnesses were produced in court Monday, when the case is set for trial and the attorney Sor the de- fendants allowed to talk to them he would not allow the trial to pro- ceed at that time.
 When asked if he knew where the men were, Mir Tate refused to say. However, he stated that he had promised them he wouldn't di- vulge their whereabouts and he would die before he did it. He said these men had b1<n threatened and had come to him and asked for protection.
 Milligan and Neville are charged with killing John Bivens, union miner near Quintown several weeks ago, as he was on his way home from work
 Sheriff J. c. Hartsfield and J. G. Brooks, warden at the county jail, were called and both testified the men were not in jail and they did not know where they were.
 When Solicitor Tate refused to tell where Lattimer, Little and Ware were, MT. Altman insisted that he be held in contempt of court for failing to answer. However, Judge Fort ruled that in the cir cumstances he would not compel such disclosure.
