HOGS MAKE SLIGHT
ADVANCE WHEN RUN
Is REPORTED LIGHT
Cattle Prices Are Lower
Due to Heavy
Supply.
Rr l.. C. GRuNDELAND.


Copyright. 1888. by The San Antonio Light.
Chicago, Jan. 2e.-On account Of the
lower trade late last week it was ex-
pected that cattle supplies would be
held down today, but the number on
hand was larger than a week ago. In
the hog house, however, The Iun was
cut, and values gained. Big packers
did not look for large supply Of sleep
and lambs for the lay. And "a rep'edv
this they had 15,G.0 of the estimated
$500 forwarded dirSct to them from
niher trading points, leaving only about
1000 on sale hero. Sellers had only
SPY hogs held over from last week.
Receipts were 22,000 cattle, 5000
hogs, $4,000 sheep. $500 calves.
Bids were lower for all kinds Of cattle
from the start. but some sales Of steers
were about steady. Late in the day
the trade was weak and demand, un-
even. Quality fell below what sellers
had looked for and bulk went at SS.2J
and 1915. with few steers above $3.50.
Cows and heifers were steady TO I'M
evenly lower, but the trade was better
than sellers expected. Gamers Of good
quality went at So while bologna bulls
were placed at SASS TO $500 for good
lots on a weak market. Calves showed
plain quality. Prices were nearly
steady, but small killers sorted hard.
Hog supply fell far short Of the ex-
pected number and values were mostly
Is cents higher from the start. About
5000 were received by big killers, and
these buyers were a little slow to come
into the pens. Choice 100 TO 190-pound
hogs sold at $3.50 to $500, while most
240 to 275-pound butchers went at
sS15 and $s.25. The top of the trade
remained at $500 and $500. Rough
packing sold at 1925 and SIPS.
Choice feeding and shearing lambs
sold at SIS while best killing stock
went at S14.90 on n steady TO strong
market. Most good lambs went to pack
ers at S14.25 and Slab. Demand for
eyed muttons was fair, but quality was
AGAIN plain. Some good ewes sold at
$50.

TAKES WRONG CAR
Golfer Motors To Corpus Christi Be
fore Mistake Discovered.

The sheriffs' offices at Corpus Christi
and San Antonio are today arranging
for swap of flivvers between John
Bredemus. golf professional at the
Corpus Christi Country Club, and L.
w. Masterson, San Antonio lawyer.
The sheriff is occasionally called upon
to sell property but this is one OF the
very few cases on record where it's
the sheriffs job to engineer an even
trade.
Details are lacking on the funny
mixup. but the essentials are these.
Mr.. Masterson saw the golf champion
ship playoff at Breckenridge PARK
Sunday morning. He went out in his
Ford. John Bredemus, who acted as
flagman in the golf match, also arrived
in a Ford.
1t seems that Bredemus, at the
conclusion of the match, offered the
use of his car to some golfer who was
going to the Corpus Christi open tourna.
ment, scheduled this week, and told
him where to find the machine. Who
this party was has not been learned.
Anyway. he drove all the way to
Corpus in T. W. Masterson's car, leav-
ing Bredemus' at the park.
Bredemus played at the country
club in the afternoon and reached
Corpus Monday morning where he dis
covered the nlixup in cars. The sheriff
there was notified and he sent word
to the sheriff here. Mr.. Masterson had
meanwhile reported his car missing,
Two and two were put together and
the owners will get their cars again.

AMERICAN SHIPS DRY
BUT GET FAIR SHARE
OF PACIFIC TRAVEL
Hold Their 0wn Against
japanese and British Yes
sells Serving Liquor.
BY JUNIUs d. WOOD.
Special Cable 10 The san Antonio Light
and the Chicago Daily News.
DOWNRIGHT 1921,

Yokohama, Jan. 29-American-owned
ships are holding their own in trans,
Pacific travel despite prohibition, ae-
cording to japanese shipping statistics
just completed and covering 1922.
The Japanese figures also show that
the American proportion of eastbound
traffic is considerably larger than the
American proportion of westbOund, IN
dieating that Americans in the Orient
are either more patriotic in patron
izing ships of their own country or that
representatives of American lines in the
Orient are more active in getting bnsi
ness than are similar representatives on
home shores.
Comparative monthly percentages of
American, British and japanese lines,
the only ones carrying passengers oe-
tween the United States and the Orient,
show that there has been great IN
crease in the American proportion since
the beginning Of the year. Between
1900 and 1900 first-class passengers
cross the Pacific in each direction an
nually. In January, 1922, ships under
the American flag carried is per cent
of all eastbOund passengers. British
ships 81 per cent and japanese ships
81 per cent. During the last three
months of the year, out of 24S6 east
bound passengers, first-class, American
ships carried 90 per cent, British ships
IL per cent and Japanese vessels q per
cent. Out of 2601 westbound passeu-
gers the respective American, British
and japanese percentages were 40, 81,
and 20 per cent. January figures for
westbound passenger traffic are un-
available.
October, which was the last wet
month for American ships under the
governments dry ruling, showed 90 per
cent of all the passengers travelling on
American ships, Z per cent on British
ships and 81 per cent on Japanese
lines. WestbOund traffic for the same
month was 33. 81 and 16 per cent, re-
Spectively. The two succeeding dry
months of November and December
showed November eastbound 6t per
cent American. 10 per cent British and
81 per cent japanese, while the per-
centage of westbound traffic carried on
American ships was IS per cent as
compared with II per cent for British
lines and so per cent for japanese
December eastbOund traffic was 81
per cent on American ships, II on Brit
ish vessels and % on japanese, while
westbound was 45, 50 and 20 per cent,
respectively.
At the present time three American
trans-Pacific lines operate five ships in
each direction, as compared with sim
gle British line with two ships monthly
and three japanese lines with SIX ships
each way monthly.

REYNOLDS MEANS 1T
Hard-hitting Kelly Field Srapper Get.
ting Into Shape.

Jack Reynolds. the hard-hitting Kelly
Field middleweight, who beat two men
in one evening on a recent Beethoven
Hall boxing card. is really in earnest
about getting into shape and rising in
his profession. Reynolds in all his
downtown bouts has looked like a
champion in the first one or two
rounds and then has tired out. Lack
Of condition has been the answer.
Saturday night, he boxed two "pugs"
at the Army "Y" in exhibitions, Andy
Griffin and Bat Barrera, and he made
good showing in each bout. He is
training hard with Promoter Shelton's
promise to give him some real money
bouts if he proves he means it when
he says he'll stay in condition.

UKRAINIAN CHORUS
DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
IN RETURN VISIT
Sing Two Mexican Numbers
Adapted for Choral
Singing.

The remarkable impression made by
the Ukrainian National Chorus on their
first appearance in San Antonio in De
cember was deepened and intensified
when they sang again, Saturday even
ing, January 81, under the auspices OF
the Lions Club. The chorus has Just
returned from a tour of Mexico, which
was such a series OF triumphs that it
had TO be prolonged far beyond the
original intention Of the manager and
necessitated the cancellation of the
western engagements that had been
made. 1t was because Of he change OF
itinerary, that San Antonio had the
opportunity 10 hear the second concert.
The soul of the whole chorus is the
singularly gifted conductor, NJ. koshetz.
He uses no baton, but conducts with bis
hands aud achieves such marvellous ef'
fects with his forty choristers that one
seems at times to be listening to the
suaxe accents of string quartet or the
majestic tones of an organ, to the muir
mur of a forest or a mountain echo.
He plays on all the voices. He takes
hold of them by large or small ges'
ture, and awakens them; he makes
them storm, he makes them sleep-they
swell in waves, then sink and down like
a war wind on a summer night.
The choral number that gave the
most perfect delight was the "Youns
Monk" in which rarely beautiful lyric
tenor voice sang a solo part. And
now, twas all the birds that sing,--now
like lonely flute" This was repeatedly
encored and had to be sung again until
the strange melody became fixed in the
minds of the hearers. A beautiful
Lullaby" had soprano solo, with the
other voices accompanying with an ef'
feet of muted strings. Two familiar
Mexican songs have been given a very
striking choral arrangement by NJ. Kos
hetz, and added to the repertoire.
The soprano, Nine. Nina koshetz,
sang eight or ten songs, and appeared
to far greater advantage than when che
was heard here before. Her voice is OF
remarkably rich. warm timbre, more
common in a mezzo than in a soprano
and she uses it with the skill and sure
ness of the conscious artist. She was
particularly fortunate in her two Rim
sky-Korsakoff songs--notably the first
which is sung without accompaniment
But it is the chorus itself that grips
the imagination. 1t is so unusual and
marvellous a performance both as to
music-writing and singing that our un'
accustomed ears have TO become orien'
tated before we can form any definite
critical impression Of 1t. So far, We
can only marvel and wonder at tht
skill displayed and the beauty created
