as reflected by carloadings in the
northwestern district during the four
weeks ending September Is, az COM
pared with the corresponding period
of last year, increased S per cent, ac-
cording to preliminary summary OF
agricultural and financial conditions
prepared by the Federal Reserve
bank Of Minneapolis. II the loadinRs
of iron ore, which are dependent on
eastern industrial conditions, and the
loadings Of L. G. L. freight, which
represent a variable tonnage. are
omitted, there was a decrease Of s
per cent. Livestock continues to
move to terminals in this district
in greater volume and at better prices
than last year. Increases over last
month were also shown both in the
volume Of receipts and prices rcceiv-
ed. The increase for the year in the
receipts Of hogs and cattle was largely
unfinished animals which went out
again as feeders to the country. To

ed in the total volume Of check pay
mcnts made through banks at repre-
sentative cities, was IL per cent less

Berlin, Oct. l8-IP)-The Cerman

office building.

Scene Of Noble Functions
The Kaiscrhof during the fifty
years Of its existence has been the
scene of some Of the most brilliant
functions under the imperial regime.
Here the weddings Of the smart set
were held. Whenever a large festi.
val took place at court. to which DO.
tentates came from foreign countries.
some of the guests were lodged in
the kaiserhof, as the accommodations
at the royal palaces were limited. For
many years Prince Won Bulow, for.
mer chancellor, was it's star guest.
The greatest aggregation Of blue
bloods which the Kaiserhof housed
stopped there during the marriage Of
Princess Victoria Louise, only daugh-
ter of William II, to Ernst August,
Duke of Brunswick, in 1913. The EN-
pcror's brother, Prince Henry, the
grandduke Of Hesscn, and many Other
royal personages then lived at the
kaiscrhof, and among those who paid
them formal visits were Car
Nicholas of Russia and King George
and Queen Mary of England.
Host to Titled Guests
Other historic occasions were the
arrival of the Bocr generals De Wet.
Botha and Delare after the defeat of
the Boer armies in South Africa in
1901: the dinner arranged in honor
Of Count Waldcrsce and the other
officers who served against the Box
crs in Chince, in 1900, and the benefit
bazaar held under the protectoratc
Of Empress Augustc Victoria in 1900.
The occasions were not devoid Of
humor. Thus. as the Empress ar
rived with her two boys, the cx.
crown prince and Prince Oscar, to
open the bazaar, young Oscar espied
the brilliant red uniforms with gold
