Leaken Palace, in which a room
with pink hangings had been pre-
pared for her, was a regular
"faily palace" to quote an eye
witness. And at night, when
Marie Louise appeared in an
open carriage, bands struck up as
a salute.
At Saint-Gudule, she admired
the stained-glass windows and
tapestries of the Cathedral. In
lace factory, Mademoiselle
Noens presented her with a de-
sign in which the genius OF trade
was shown leaning upon the I'M
perial Eagle to strike down the
monster of discord." The nights
at Brussels were all enchant-
ment; ball given by the city,
a ball in honor of Pauline Bona
parte, Princess Borghese, per-
Torrance at the opera of "Maison
a vendre."
From Boulogne, passing through
Calais, Napoleon reached Ostend.
He would not hear of any recep-
ton. He was the artillery officer
on a round of inspection; the
preceding years, he had found
disturbing conditions: AT Dun
kerque, the engineers are in a
lamentable state" Elsewhere
"the gun-boats of the navy are
not exercised"
He proceeded to inquire per-
sonally into the state of the for
tificationS and that of the fleet.
At Ostend, with an eye to the
evil consequences Of the naval
blockade, he promised to do all
he could to promote the eXporta-
ton of French wines and Lyons
silks. Yet there is no sign of such
concerns in the love letters writ
ten to the Empress. His sole con-
Germ is tout q toi-"all my love to

HOGS MOVE IS
CENTS FORWARD
Most Classes at StandStiII
After Early Trade;
VeaIS Strong.

Following Tuesdays sharp de-
cline, porker prices have advanced
moderately at the indianapolis Union
Stockyards during the last two ses-
sions. Prices today we're generally
Is cents higher than yesterdays 10
cent advance.
The trading interest in hogs dur
ing the last few days has dropped
considerably, compared with the
extremely active sessions of last
week. The principal reason for the
sudden drop in demand was given by
livestock dealers is that prices are
high enough for this time of the
season.
Trading at the opening today
started at a rather active pace, but
slowed down and was practically
at a StandStill near the close of the
session. The bulk, $50 to $50
pounds, was salable at $795 to 1925.
Light lights, scaling 100 to 100
pounds, brought $5.15 to $615,
while others weighing 1870 to 160
pounds, sold at $6.40 to $40.
Early supplies were estimated at
5000, an increase of 1000 over yes
terday's figures. The moderate rum
of receipts recently has partly been
attributed to the muddy weather
conditions in the country. Good
packing sows were selling at $3.50 10
SIPS. Top price was reported at
1925 for good and choice grades.
Holdovers numbered 1893.
Initial trading continued active in
the cattle market with the price
trend slightly higher than yesterday.
The general bulk of steers ranged
from $3.50 to $1,000 A strong I'M
dertone prevailed in veals and prac-
tically all grades were salable at
$3.50 down. Early demand was
strong.
With only a slight change regis
tered in local lamb conditions, the
majority of prices remained I'M
changed at $3.50 down. Few eX-
tremely heavy kinds cashed in at SO
down, while throwouts ranged from
$3.50 to So. Slaughter sheep sold
at $3.50. No extreme interest was
evident throughout the session. Re-
ceipts were $500.

BY S. READING BERTRON

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-Tempta-
ton to attack the utility rates,
which affects great masses Of our
people. seems to politicians an OPP
portunity for headlines too great to
be overlooked and they, being con-
WINGED that the issue is a popular
one, are making the most Of the
opportunity. The arbitrary methods
employed in the management of
some utilities in the conduct of their
business frequently adds TO the
popularity of the attack.
The rates in some instances prob
ably are too high. Greatly increased
consumption at low rates would
prove more satisfactory to both the
utilities and consumers than re-
stricted consumption at high rates.
A utility company must have I'M
questioned credit to produce cheap
electric current and cheap gas. 1t
never can arrive at this status under
constant public attacks and dis
paragement of the investment which
must be rendered safe by wise deci-
sions of the utility commissions.
In New York State we have an
exceedingly industrious commission,
respected by those who come in con-
tact with it. Its honesty of purpose
is unquestiOned. The slowness of its
decisions is often criticised, but the
public OVerlOOkS the fact that it's
actions must be governed by law and
not by desire.
The attacks upon DR.. Maltbie are
i'll considered. Those who have fol-
lowed his course since he became
chairman of the commission can
