SOVIET DICkERING
Secretary of State Couches
Sharp Note to Russian
Government.

81 tUtted Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.-secre-
tary of State Hughes, eplying to
Soviet Foreign Minister Tchitcherin
today declared there is no reason for
negotiations at this time between
the United States and Russia.
Hughes made the following state
ment in reply to the soviet note to
President Coolidge proposing negotia
tons for an agreement between the
two countries:
There would seem to be at this
time no reason for negotiations"
IF the soviet authorities are ready
to restore the confiscated property OF
American citizens or make effective
compensation they can do so. If the
soviet authorities are ready to repeal
their decree repudiating Russia's OBJ
legations to this country and appro-
priately recognize them, they can do
so.
1T requires no conference or nego-
tiations to accomplish those results
which can and should be achieved at
Moscow as evidence of good faith. The
American Government has not in
CURED liabilities to Russia or repudi-
ated obligations. Most serious is the
continued propaganda to overthrow
the institutions Of this country. This
Government can enter into no negoti-
ations until these efforts directed from
Moscow are abandoned.
In some quarters the reply from
Hughes came as a surprise, in that
It was couched in sharp language.

A rather severe break In hog prices
occurred in trading at the local live
stock market today as the result of
fairly heavy offerings of 10000 or
more hogs and expectancy of contin-
ued heavy receipts for the remainder

the decline was probably 10 to rs
cents, though generally 10 to IS cents,
with numerous sales reported 20 cents
lower. The top for heavies was re-
duced from $745 on Monday to $3.50,
while lights sold up from 81, compared
with $7.15 on previous trading. Mixed
hogs sold from sos to $715, while
the bulk of sales was made between
81 and Sis. Sows and pigs reflected
the decline by dropping generally a
quarter pigs selling down from $3.50
and sows down from $625. Shippers
were fairly active. but their demands
were insufficient to steady the mar
ket and packers entered the market
with bids Is to 25 cents lower and
bought the late hogs. An early es-
innate Of local receipts of 25. 900 also
mad a depressing effect. but the run
at 10 o'clock was scarcely at the 90,
600 figure. Despite this fact, however,
the supply more than equaled the
demand.
Dizziness dominated trading IN the

tendency to weaken in most cases,
