Light Receipts Feature in
Porker Price
Boost.

Hog values were boosted 40c
higher in the initial session of the
week at the Indianapolis Livestock
Exchange. Light receipts, estimated
at 1000. were the main factor in
forcing the rise. Holdover from the
final trading period of last week,
numbering $50, were added to the
total fresh receipts. This combined
number was not enough to satisfy
the demand and sellers were paid
more for their material.
Top price of 1880 was placed on
lightweight hogs. One load of porIr-
ers weighing between 100 and 200
pounds brought this quotation. The
bulk of the matured hog sales were
made from $12.50Q13.50.
Hog Price Scale
Trading was done over the follow
ing scale of values: Heavyweight
material brought $12.5O@12.75; me-
dunn weight hogs sold at $12.75013;
light and light light porkers com
manded price of $13.50s pigs cashed
at s13.25@13.50; smooth packing
sows were $11.5o@12; roughs moved
at $10.75Q11.25 and stays were IS

The return to normal temperature
enabled the farmers to truck their
hogs to the market today and re

change were estimated at 1000. The

for the remainder of the week If the

Cattle trading was rahter slow, but
price held steady. Receipts were es-

priced at s7@11; heifers, 5000 and
cows. s4@7.75.
Calf Market Strong
A small Offering OF sheep and
lambs. estimated at only 200. offered
small assortment of material from
which to choose and trading was
necessarily slow. Prices held steady,
however. and traders predicted an
uptum in quotation sometime during
the week Choice native lambs were
priced at s14@1450. Choice western
lambs were quoted at S145O915.
Sheep were unchanged at $49S.
The calf market ruled strong and
the bulk of the sales ruled so cents
higher. Most Of the choice calves
were sold at prices ranging from SIS

TT OSTER agreed that many
r other factors might have en-
IL tered into the general price
increase, but said the companies
offer undoubtedly has had some
effort on the trend.
The first impulse Of the farmer
was to hold his corn until late in
the season and then cash in on the
offer. Many other farmers bought
corn Immediately and stored 1t so
that they might exchange it in May
for farm implements.
This brought into play the law Of
supply and demand" One faction
wanted to buy and another faction
desired to hold. This has created
shortage and the price was con-
sequently inflated, said Foster.
The problem OF grading corn at
the elevator will be worked out
later, officials of the company say.
Ordinarily the elevator buys corn
and ships the entire lot to Chicago
to be graded, but under the exchange

GOOD RETURN IN SHEEP
INDUSTRY IS PREDICTED

Continuation of good returns in the
sheep industry is forecast by the De-
partment of Agriculture. Reporting
10 per cent increase in the 1926 lamb
crop, the department added that with
the present demand lamb prices dur
ing the next 12 months may average
only slightly lower than during the
last year. While wool prices may
continue near their present levels for
some time. the department said there
are no present indications of a return
to the very favorable market of the
end of 1924.
The indicated 10 per cent increase
in the 1926 lamb crop, probable in
crease in hog supplies next Spring,
and a possible slackening in business
activity are factors which department
economists believed may influence I'M
favorably the outlook for marketing
the 1925 lamb crop.

to be due them said that so Indians
had been sent to HermosillO for the

not Forthcoming, they went to Quay
Elas with an order on the collector

money there, the Yaqui delegation
returned to Hermosillo, where it was
detained by state authorities for three
days. The main body of the YaquiS
at Vicam, apparently fearing for the
safety of their tribesmen, took Obre-

the state government at Hermosillo
that they were holding the former
president as hostage until their rep
resentatives returned.

Tense attorneys defending the govern
ment witness.
Buckners attitude on the testimony
of Merton in cross examination cen
tered about the oral transfer by him
and his brother in 1916-a few days
before America declared war on Ger
many-of shares of the American Metal
company to the Societe Suisse under
terms of reputed obligation assumed
by his father in 1910 and 1912.
Buckner alleged that this obligation
was a myth, concocted for the purpose
of establishing a motive for the trans
fer of the shares that antedated the
war. But Merton, giving long legisla-
.tion of events leading up to the trans
fer and the relations of the Merton
family to the various concerns in which
1T had interest, stood by his previous
statements. He re-asserted he believ-
ed at the time he made the claims that
they were valid and that he still be-
lieves them valid.
Merton said thar wnen he came to
America to make the claims he felt
them to be weak because of the oral
transfer, but he learned, he said, the
claim could be made either on basis
of ownership or debt, and this, he felt,
strengthened his claim
The transaction, as Merton saw it.,
was simple; the Merton family had
pledged the shares of the American
Metal company it owned, and if it had
had these shares they would have been
turned over to the Societe Suisse AS
soon as they were obtained, Merton
said, they were given to the Societe
Suisse, minus the fees of $441,000 he
paid King and the 100000 commission
he himself received. Buckner' then be-
gan an inquiry into the disposition of
the remainder of the $7,OOO,OO0, his
questions revealing it was his purpose
to show that the money was not actu~
ally now in the hands of the Societe
Suisse, but was in the hands of the
Merton family and the German stock
holders of the two German companies
Court adjourned until tomorrow with
Buckner engaged in an attempt to
prove through Merton that the ST.
100000 refunded through Daugherty
and Miller was far in excess of even
the alleged Indebtedness" of the Ger
man companies to the Societe Suisse.
