Kansas City Stock Yards,
May 10, 1926.

Cattle prices held steady, spots
stronger on some classes of butcher
stock and stockers and feeders. With
1000 head on through billing to Kan
sas pastures receipts were about the
same as a week ago, but less than a
year ago. Chicago reported liberal
supply of grain fat steers. Hog pri-
ces were 10 to Is cents higher, most
of the. advance showing in medium
and light weight hogs. The price
spread is narrowing. Lambs We're in
active demand at strong prices. Sheep
were steady.
Beef Cattle
Trade in fat cattle was rather slow
starting but later became fairly ac-
tive with no quotable change in pri-
ces compared with late last week.
The general condition remained about
the same as for some time past and
there is no indication of rising prices
for the immediate future. AT the
rate fed cattle are. being marketed,
it looks Ike the June run will be
small. The best yearling offerings
here today brought $3.50. Medium
weight steers sold up to $935 and
heavy steers 1925. The bulk of the
fat steers brought $3.50 to 1925.
Cows 3nd heifers were quoted strong
er. Most Of the cows sold at $5.25 to
$3.50 and heifers SITS to $3.50. Veal
calves were steady, best light weights

Slipher, mountain lion; James Johns

Paul Caron, flying eagle. Others
elected: Leighton Cress, scribe;
james Shirley, game master and
chaplain; Allan Cree. troop reporter.
A definite responsibility was assigned
each scout. Robert Corbett passed
tenderfoot tests.
The large scout room, about 35 bv
70 feet will soon be one of the most
attractive spots for boys in the city.
Half the floor space is dirt covered
and this will be converted into an In
dian village. Each of the four pa
trolls is building in its corner a tepee
large enough to accommodate its
members seated in a circle around
the council fire. Skins will cover the
floors and appropriate trophies will
decorate the. interior. The central
space will contain small trees in for
est formation. In conjunction with
a comprehensive course of nature
study planned for the summer field
work a natural history museum Will
be former.
The other half Of the room will be
fitted UP as a recreation center for
games, archery practice and all kinds
of competition.
Troop Three held an interesting
meeting in Elks basement Monday
night. Scout Executive Waldraven
attended and told about the summer
camp, which, he said, probably will
be at some mountain site. He also
instructed in scout maneuvers and
showed several new games. The
scouts have almost finished wiring

GEORGE BERNARD SHAW
REFUSES NOBEL AWARD
MONEY HAS NOVEL PLAN

LONDON, Nov. 1S.--(P)-George Ber-
nard Shaw the veteran British play
wright, who was awarded the Nobel
prize in literature for 1925, today no.
titled the Swedish academy that he
was happy to accept the honor of the
award, but that he declined the prize
money.
He suggested, however, that the
money, which usually amounts to
about S35,O00, be used 20 encourage
intercourse and understanding in lit
erature and art between Sweden and
the British isles"
Referring with characteristic humor
to the fact that most of the paper
which came to Great Britain from
Sweden had nothing printed on it, and
apparently was used chiefly to wrap
Australian apples, Shaw proposed that
fund be established 20 bring in i'm
portant Swedish books and to support
organs working for intellectual inter-
course between the two nations.

GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Nov. 16--[Pl-Wheat prices
tilted upward today owing largely to
North American business that was es-
tmated as high as 2,5OO,000 bushels
Active speculative selling developed on
the advance, however, and partly wiped
out the gains. Closing quotations for
wheat were unsettled, 5s to1 u cents
net higher, corn 1b to y cent up, oats
unchanged to a better, and provisions
varying from 10 cents decline to rise
of q cents
Z Heavy rains in Argentina with Liv-
erpool wheat prices higher than ex-
pected had much to do with strength
ening the wheat market here.
A lowering of ocean freight rates
meanwhile tended to improve export
demand for wheat from North America
and so likewise did an advance in ex-
change rates to Europe
The fact that general downpours OF
moisture We're reported in Santa Fe
and Cordoba prov inc $, Argentina
aroused particular attention, harvest
operations being in progress there.

veloped in the wheat market toward

the Canadian grain trade was becom-

scarcity of storage space as well. Un-

closed rs points net lower at 145B
after having sold two points above
that figure. General Motors, which
had sold as high as 1905 in early
trading, sold down to 14T1a and then
moved up to 147B, off B net despite
the fact that regular and common divi-
dends of $5.75 come off the stock to-
morrow and must be charged against

Der of the industrial triumvirate,

closing fractionally higher at 1861.
Revival of activity and strength in
the textile shares, based on reports of
improved trade conditions as a result
of the low price of cotton and the bet
ter feeling in the wool trade, was one
of the few features of the session.
American ,Woolen was bid up as high
as 32M, as against low of 10 earlier
in the year, and Consolidated Textile
was bid up a point to new high rec
ord for the year at 1s on an unusu-
