(Special Cablegram to The Bee.) The principal organ of the Ger man Jews, Die Aiigemeine zeitung aes Judentums, complains bitterly, In a re markAble article, of the Increased tendency In Germany to press Jews out of all posi tions where learning or expert skill are necessary nualiflcatlona. Thla tendency haa been growing stronger during the last ten years. Without stopping to comment on the total exclusion of Jews from the corps of officers of the German army, the Jewish organ shows that In the universities, whose chairs were formerly open to Jews, there is now a strong body of antl'-Sem;te, who will bear nothing of Jewish professore, and oppoae their filling even the minor teaching office of "dosent." In medical circles s'mllar currents are manifest, and public bodies, when advertising for a medical man, Invariably exclude the Jewish doctors who present themselves as candidates. In large chemical factories Jews seldom have a chance of obtaining a position of respon sibility, and among the ranks of German apothecaries, once largely recruited from Jewlrh circles, It Is now next to Impossible for a Jew to gain an entrance. The tech nical professions, like electricians, engi neers, etc., are alao being gradually closed to young Jews, who are. In consequence, driven to engage in commercial pursuits.

The market has Been rather Irregulur, so that prices have fluctuated up and down to quite an extent. In the case of beef steers closing prices are around 109l5c lower and In extreme cases 20c lower than the close of last weeK. The loss was sustained mostly on Friday and amounted to more than the gain up to Wcdnemiay. Tho break In prices on Friday was general ut all points, us packers teemed to be very liidillei ent and appar ently did not care whether they got iresh supplies or not. The quality ol tne offer ing litre has been coimnuu all the week and In fact there has not been a well fin ished load of cattle in the yards. Good to choice cattle may be quoted from 15.00 to 15.60, fair to good S4.4U to So and common to lair lrom $( '-'o down. The cow market has followed much the same course as the trade on steers. Pack era were very bearish on Friday and that decline left the market lOjiOc lower than the close of last week, the greatest decline being on the common to medium grades. Packers seemed to be very anxious tor the more desirable kinds of cows and heifers and such kinds gained in strength the first half of the week, but the latter part of the week packers were bearish on the good stuff, us well as on the common kinds. Oood to choice grades may be quoted from 33.00 to 34.00, fair to good 32.40 to S3. 00 and common to fair from SI. 50 to S2.25. Hulls are around lull 15c lower for the week. Oood to choice grades sell from i 32.90 to 33.60 and common kinds from S2.75 down. Veal calves have shown little change. The demand for good heavy feeders has been about equel to the supply all the week and such kinds may be quoted Just about steady. The common to light cattle, however, have been rather slow sale, par ticularly toward the close, and are around 10Etl6c lower. Good to choice heavy cattle sell from 33.75 to 34-15. fair to good 33.25 to 13.76 and common kinds from 33.25 down. HOOS There was quite a liberal run of hogs here today for a Saturday, but fifty eight cars were billed direct to packers, so (hat the actual number on sale was not so excessive. Unfavorable reports, however, were received from all other markets and as a result prices here also broke, the de cline being 6?il0e. The quality of the offer ings as a whole was hardly as good as yesterday, so that the market On paper looks worse than It really was. Trading was fairly active at the decline, so that mnat rt the Mrlv Arrlvftla were HtsnnneH tt in good season. Light weights went largelyj from S4.50 down, medium and mixed hogs went from S4 50 to 14.56 and heavies largely from M 55 to 14 65, with prime heavies from 34.65 to 34.75 The latter price was paid for a very prime load, weighing over i' pounds. For the week receipts have been quite liberal for the time of year, there being a slight Increase over lust week, and as com pared with the corresponding week of last vear there Is an Increase of about ll.no1) head. The general tendency of prices was upward until Friday and the loss on Fri day and Saturday haa more than made up for the advance, cloalng prices being about a nickel lower than those In force at the close of last week. Thursday waa the high day. when the average price waa S4.72H, which Is the highest point reached since last November. Representative sales: No. a. gb. Fr. N. At. ha. rr. It 104 ...

Hut while rMelpts hive been light, pr.cee have taken quite a drop, jn it i y owing to the severe storms in the e;iet which Inter fered with transportation to acme rxunt, but more particularly to the bail condition of the mutton market. The demand frrm packers has been very limited all the wetk, so that prices had to take a tumble at nil pr ints. As a general thing the de line amounted to 2iii4c. In the case of choice yearlings and wethers the decline In all rMi has not been that much, while on the other hand fome of the light lambs and old ewfs have suffered more than 4ic. With the exception of extreme casts the maiket Is mostly 25u40e lower than It was at .he close of last week. The feeling at the close i f the week seemed to be a little better than It was on Wednesday and Thursday, as was evidenced from the fact that while packers were not willing to advance prices, they were more anxious for supplies. There Is nothing new In the leed'-r line, aj4 verv few have been offered, and the de mand has been sufMcli nt to take everything offered at Just about steady prices.
