Hog Traders Resist
Higher Asked Prices

CHICAGO, March IA GN.SO.
Hog receipts were $4,000 today,
including 5000 billed to packers.
Higher prices were asked and the
advantage was strongly in favor
Of statesmen, but there was a
strong resistance against higher
prices on account of the process
ing tax. Statesmen were asking
$4.65 to $4.75 for good quality
hogs.
Light and medium weight steers
were strong and the other grades
steady. Cows and heifers sold
slowly and steady. Stockers and
feeders we're unchanged.
The sheep market was steady
to strong with receipts 10000.
Statesmen were holding the best
lambs at $40.

King with the business Of making
the guests comfortable.
President F. Regis Noel started
the affair off with a bang-only
told one joke and turned the
chair over to ToastmaSter Garnett
for the evening. 1t was just the
kind of meeting to suit Mr..
Noel-who hates and despises such
things as parliamentary matters.
George O'Connor, Alvin L. New
myer, Ed Walsh, George Hoover
and Roger J. Whiteford, wound up
the program with more recent
tales of court lore. Because many
of the others appeared to have
something in mind, the same type
of meeting may be held some time
to allow them a future oppor-
tunity to add to the volume which
H. S. Middlemiss started last
night.
Walter English might have told
some of the amusing incidents
in the judicial career Of Justice
Wendell P. Stafford, especially
the one about the young attorney
whose first case-involving the
change of a clients name-had
made him very nervous.
On the morning the final
papers were to be presented in
court the young attorney, ac-
companied by the client, went
to the chambers of the kindly,
benevolent jurist to make sure
that his papers were in order
After Justice Stafford had reaS-
sured them that the petition
would undoubtedly be granted,
English heard the client-a Ger
man-say as they passed from
the anteroom.

Facile Jokes of Bell
And TObriner Make
Hit at Law FrOliC

The lawyers jokefest at the
Mayflower Hotel last night was
better than most of the lawyers
especially the younger ones-ex-
pected it to be.
The reason was that most Of
the Jokes were new to them be-
cause they were told by two old
timers and the related occurrences
happened before the younger
lawyers were born.
Leon Tobriner, who began the
practice back in 1874 and Alexan-
der Bell, who started in Mr.. To
briner'S office a few years later
were the principal performers and
their appearances were in the ma
ture Of "Memory-Jaunts" or rem
iniscences of their careers.
Names of judges and justices
Of the peace that the young law
yers had never heard of rolled
from the tongues Of the oldSterS
as they related the idiosyncracieS
Of the juristS whose quaint char
acteriSticS amused the barristerS
Of that time just as some Of the
present ones amuSe the present
generation of practitioners.
It was instructive as well as en-
tertaining, because it described
the evolution of practice in the
local courts and the manner in
which changes were brought
about.
District Attorney Leslie C.
Garnett's sallieS as toastmaster
really stamped that gentleman as
raconteur Of the first degree
but his wit would have made a
hit anyway because he had a
gallery. All the young lawyers
who want to be Assistant Dis
trict Attorneys were in the front
rows.
The attendance was a surprise
to everyone and the Chinese room
at the Mayflower Hotel was so
packed that additional chairs had
to be brought in to seat the late
corners.
Milton w. King, chairman Of
the membership committee, was

MARKET GROPES
BUT CLIMBS
UPWARD
By WALL STREET SPECTATOR

By WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK, March IA UN.S0.
The market seems to be cropping
its way upward, yet ready to duck
at the least danger signal. At
times stocks acted as if they were
getting ready to break out Of their
trading range. The reason tney
didn't is that traders are still
watching their step after the dis
appointments of the last few
weeks, and aren't going to clamper
aboard the bandwagon until the
parade is really on.
This was indicated yesterday IN
the first rotation Of leadership IN
some time. First 1t was the utll-
tiles, then the oils, later the rails
and at the end the air stocks.
Most Of the big operators are on
the sidelines here, waiting for .
cue to get in. They are reported
friendly to the buying side, based
on their belief that another 1n1la-
ton market will develop within
the next month or so after the
Governments April Is financing
is out of the way.
The Supreme Court milk deci-
sion has been helping the dairy
stocks.
The ruling upholding price
fixing, it is pointed out, means q
break for the distributor as well

garding the strength in the util'
tiles may be contained in the
statement in one Of the Washing
ton services that the recently
formed Utility Securities Holders
League has wide backing among

London has been buying a few Of

Reports that the Shoreham
Hotel during it's three years in
hands of receivers, earned gross
receipts aggregating $3,70O,000, as
revealed in the statement Of the
receivers, has made many think
Of going into the hotel business.
Experienced hotel men and
financiers, however, we're not
overawed by the huge figure.
While the gross caring was good,
they point out that the property
really made no profit during that
time. First trust interest, main
tenance and depreciation alone
considered, the books actually
show an operating loss. they say,
although the receivers were ex-
tremely conservative in their ex-
penditures.
While the hotel actually passes
into the hands of the Shoreham
Hotel Company on March 16, the
receivers final report may not be
filed until April 16, and suits Of
intervening lienors may be filed
up to May 16-that is, for liens,
contracts and torts incurred by
the receivers themselves.
The first step in the reorganiza-
ton of the hotel company began
shortly after the termination of
the court hearings yesterday.
Having withdrawn their original
suit for receivership after the
court found it to have been i'm
providently filed, the noteholders
committee yesterday began pro-
ceedings to quit title to the prop
erty, asking for substitution of
Trustees Luther A. SWartzell, de-
ceased and Edmund D. Rheem.
