CATTLE AND LAMB
PRICES DEPRESSED
Heat -Wilted Dressed Markets Have
Important Influence on Lower
Trend During Week.
0y the Associated Press.

8y the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, August Alive stock
prices got another slap during the week
under review, q set of heat wilted
dressed markets contributing important
1y to the downturn in cattle and lambs
Generally sluggish markets on dressed
beef and lamb naturally did not help
the pork market even though that trade
gave better account Of itself than the
other.
Cattle receipts were above trade re-
quirementS, seven market runs being
about as large as a week earlier and
considerably larger, than a year ago.
More hogs arrived at seven big markets
than last week, runs also exceeding the
corresponding period in 1882. Lambs
and sheep ran more freely, this feature
explaining in part the fact that last
weeks downturn continued during the
week under review.
Only strictly choice steers and long
yearlings held up and only few suoh
cattle arrived at the big markets. Mid
die grades ruled very uneven and COM
paratively weak, while lower grades
lost 25 cents-in instances as much as
so cents. The general cattle supply was
featured by palmer killing quality.
Fat lambs are now 100a1.25 under
two weeks ago when the top reached
8.75 at Chicago. As the week closed
buyers haggled over IT'S for comparable
kinds. most offerings during the week
having sold at 800 downward.
Hog values backed up 10al5 at most
markets.

MARTINSBURG. w. Va, August A.
Running somewhat contrary to general
opinion, which calls for an Eastern

lated results Of written estimates Of
their own crops from so orchardists,
operating a total Of about 1000 acres of
orchard bearing 375, 900 barrels of apples
points clearly to a crop at least one
fourth larger than last years In West
Virginia. The reports also say scab
and insect injury have taken the biggest
toll in history, which Is included in the
gross totals.
The 1882 commercial apple crop was
set by revised Federal-State estimates
at $4,000 barrels The rs per cent in
crease clearly shown by the growers
compiled estimates point to crop
ahead slightly In excess Of 1000, 900
barrels-somewhere between 1000 900

SUIT FIGHTS CURB
ON OIL PRODUCTION
Roosevelt Authority to Re.
strict Flow of Fuel QueS-
toned in Action.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Efforts of the Federal Government
to restrict the flow OF Oil in commerce
met their first direct challenge In .
suit filed in District Supreme Court
yesterday by F. w. Fischer, Tyler. Tex.
Fischer sought an injunction to pre-
vent Secretary Ickes from carrying out
President Roosevelt's order prohibiting
interstate shipment of oil moved IN
violation of State conservation orders.
He is suing In behalf Of the Southport
Petroleum Co., Longuew, Tex. and 4S
other reflneries.
Justice Joseph W. Cox set the case
for hearing August IS, and issued an
order to Ickes to show cause why the
injunction should not be granted.
Aimed at Roosevelt Authority.
Explaining that the suit did not op-
pose the general provisions Of the ma
tional recovery law permitting trade
ciflcally at the section giving President
Roosevelt authority to regulate inter-
state movement Of oil.
The suit challenged the constitu-
tionality Of that section and contended
the order of the Texas Railroad Com
mission limiting production to three
flfths Of / per cent Of well capacity
was invalid and exceeded its legal au-
thority
To support the plea that the oil reg
ulations and the order were unconsti-
tutional. Fischer's bill of particulars
contended Congress could not vest legis-
iative powers in the Executive; that it
prohibited instead of regulated inter-
state commerce, and that the penalty
of fine of 81 900 or six months i'm
prisonment was unconstitutional be-
cause the President could not define an
offense.
Depriving Property Rights.
The order, the suit averred, was de-
priving the owners Of the reflneries Of
their property rights, adding that as q
result of the prohibition against moving
oil In excess Of allowed production,
the plaintiffs have been compelled to
shut down their reflneries as they can
not obtain sufficient petroleum from
their wells"
The suit contended there was no law
in Texas limiting the amount Of oil
that might be produced by q well. and
that the oil and gas conservation laws
of the State, under which the Railroad
Commission regulates production, did
not give the authority to limit the flow.

ACE FINDS JOY

Compensation for Passage of

Ever since the days of Cicero's "De
Senectute," which we labored over in
junior high, as they call it now, men
have been fretting about old age,
writer in the Indianapolis News COM
ments. 1t is generally considered a
time Of life to be dreaded because of
the sadness connected with declining
activity. But sometimes the window
opens upon new vista, and we fol-
low Vida T. Scudder's pages in the
Atlantic with joy because they seem
so sane.
Having suddenly found herself ar

Scudder is inspired to take up her
pen for the benefit of those in like
predicament. She regards it as n
matter of triumph, rather than dis
couragement, to have reached time
when one may be glad to be left off
of committees and like responsible
ties, and spend the remainder of her
days in the enjoyment of the scenes
of life from the shelf to which she
has been relegated, when one may

course, but just what has long been
coveted as desirable or particularly
restful.

Continuing, Lady Mary writes: "As

GRANDMOTHERS
Whene'er 1 think of grandmothers,
think Of cherished things;
OF creamy, delicate old lace,
And dear remembered dreams.
I think of modest mignonette
Dew -drenched at new days dawn;
OF perfumed sweetpea's pastel tints;
OF shade upon lawn.
think of Artemisia gray,
Like filagree of silver hair,
OF lips that speak of troubled hearts
Loves words of wisdom rare;
OF fragile Dresden china in
A corner cupboard old.
OF Eden hours of new-wed love,
Too sacred to be told;
OF shaded lights on autumn night.
And sound of summer rain;
OF newborn baby's lips against
My breast that stings with pain;
OF work-worn hands, that yet are soft
That minister with loving care;
OF love that makes cen drudgery
A shining halo wear.
Oh precious, priceless grandmothers!
Without you, how great dearth!
Oh grandmothers! Life shows in you
True beauty on the earth.

So far all that we have been say
ing pertains to daytime fashions as
they sound the satin note. but IL you
wish to follow evening trends you will
discover that it is satin which Is lead
ing the way. Satin with lustrous fin
ish and silk back is the wanted kind
for formal dress. Stunning dinner
gowns combine black satin for the
skirt with white satin for the bodice
and girdle as sketched in the center
Of the group.
Novelty satins for evening wear es-
pecially intrigue the fancy. All sorts
of effects are shown. from printed de-
sign to interviewer bar and rib novel
ties. also jacquard effects and stripes
which alternate satin and dull crepe.
Perhaps the most interesting of them
all is the new reversible satin which
may be one color on one side and an
other on the opposite, or it may be had
with one shiny and one dull surface.
The color play of these fascinating
two-tone satins is inexhaustible.
Evening gowns of cleaning white
or off-white satin have their severely
classic necklines softened with hand
some white ostrich boas or with leis
formed of petals cut from sheerest
silk mousseline. Another feature Of
the evening mode is the dazzling mir
ror jewelry which is worn with these
ynvvns Of white satin
One Of the smartest type gowns
shown for immediate daytime wear Is
the shirtwaist frock which is tailored
of crepe satin.
