LIFELESS WEEK ON BOURSE
tVoIome of Transactions Diminishes
and Coal Shares Weaken with
Releases of Labor.
GERUN, March 28 During the 1at
reek the stagnation on the bourse grew
more pronounced, no department showed
any life, and transactions continued to
shrink In volume. The professionals at
tempted to realize, but outsiders were con-
tpicuouBly holding aloof. Domestic loans
iave held their own fairly well and some
arge Investors have been buying In all
the departments.
Industrials were weak. The conviction
ruins force that the quotations on Indus
trials have Iwen driven too high, hence,
riotwlthatanding the further price advances
n Iron, Iron shares dropped several points.
Ooa.1 shares also weakened upon the an
nouncement that many operatives had been
discharged In Westphalia, thirty-five mines
having dismissed l.WO men. Wage reduc
tions have also been announced for April.
fThe coal syndicate has Just decided to rale
Ihe restriction on the output to 24 per cent.
This restriction has hitherto been 2d per
cent. The American purchases of Iron at
tract Increased attention. Two cargoes of
1.809 tons of spelgeielxen will leave soon for
Klaltlmore.
Two banks failed to respond to the an
nouncement of Russian and other loans.
Itrhe Dlsconto Oeesellchaft has announced
n Inereaee of capital of 20.000,000 marks,
which Is offered to stockholders at ISO. The
market regards this price as too high and
the quotation has consequently dropped.
The Increase of 20.000,000 marks in the capi
tal of the Hamburg-American Steam
Packet company will be offered to stock
holders at 104.
Quotations on the shares of ocean trans-
fiortatlon companies fell further on the
ncrease In the capital of the Hamburg
American Bteam Packet company and the
report that the dividend of the North
Oerman LJoyd company would not realize
expectations. -
CLOTHS CONTINUE STRONG
Bring; Good Prices and Probably Will
Maintain Them While Yarns
' Harden.
MANCHESTER. March 23. The refusal
Of the outlets abroad to respond to the
firmness abroad caused an unsatisfactory
return on the cloth market last week.
Nevertheless, the market continues strong
and the buyers had to pay stiffly for any
thing required.
There is a general feeling that the prices
of cloth "are too low In comparison with
the prices of cotton. If the latter prices
are maintained, as seems probable, and
;wlth the further curtailment In the pro
duction of yarns and the strengthening of
values, there Is no prospect of lower cloth
prices. .
Some business In light goods and special
ties was transacted with India, and the
eventual outlook is fairly hopeful, the
satisfactory tenor of the recently published
Indian budget Justifying that view. The
low level of the present offerings Is at
tributed largely to distrust of the stability
of cotton va-lues. During the last week a
moderate trade In the standard makes was
transacted with China at comparatively
reasonable figures. There was some Inquiry
from South America, with occasional re
cults, and there was some extensive buying
from Chile and Peru.
Yarns have a tendency to harden and
fcuyers hesitate to operate largely. Spinners
complain of- the unremuneratlve margin
and that the cost of production Is rarely
realised.
CALM ON STOCK EXCHANGE
tioory Is Scarce, with No Prospect of
Increase, and Mines Ars
, , ttscsant,
I3NDON, Marrh 23. The movement of
t'.ie last week on the Stock exchange la
hardly worth recording. Money was scarce
and there Is a prospect of its becoming
scarcer with the approaching quarter day,
while the selling of continental securities
on the Iondon market, probably In view of
the new Kusslan loan, further restricted
the rash supply and generally affected In
ternationals adversely.
- The uncertainty of the form to be taken
by the new British loan was also a dis
turbing factor of the week. The .public
seems to have shaken off its speculative
fervor entirely. Home rails declined con
siderably In. spite of favorable trnffla re
turns. American securities rallied somewhat
toward the end of the week In response to
the improvement in New lorn. Mines were
absolutely stagnant.

CHICAGO. March 22.-Graln markets
were uemoiallzed today. Bears had a Unlit
clutch on the situation and squeezed hold
rs unmercifully. Weather conditions in
wheat Blurted the drive, but when corn
bcKHii to tumble speculators became almost
punlc-strli ken. There seemed to be no end
to the selling and at the end of the session
May wheat had lost 1VJ1V May corn 2'c
anu May oats 14c Provlnions were natur
ally strong and fought off the grain ln
lluence, closing 2c lower to 2lc higher.
There wns nothing but bear talk from
start to finish In the wheat pit. Tho open
ing was very weak on confirmation ot tne
rains In the southwest and additional
showers fell west and northwest. Cables
also were weak and turned weaker ns the
day advanced. Receipts, both local and
northwestern, were still small, but this In
fluence, together with that of some fair
early export trade, was lost sight of In the
mad rush to throw stuff overboard. Bulls
were nearly In a panic. There was a gen
eral desire to sell both by the shorts and
the longs. Trade was heavy and at times
very exciting. Farmers were reported sell
ing freely in the southwest. May opened
S'Utto to Vtf'eo lower at 73(32Hc and be
fore the early selling rush quieted down
May touched 72c. Shorts here began tak
ing some of their shorts and the market
steadied, though there was still a marked
oearisn leeiing prevalent. Then corn, which
was very weak to start, turned still weaker.
There was almost a panic In that pit and
tne aemoraiixea conauion oi mat market
was reflected in wheat. May wheat dropped
to llc. Bears were selling short In great
quantities and every holder of long wheat
lost heavily. Stoo-loss orders also added a
downward Impetus.
it wan expected that a good export busi
ness would spring up at the low prices and
late in the day New York did report 113
loads taken. 1 here was also a sale of 110.-
000 bushels of No. 2 hard winter sold here
for shipment, but shorts were not fright
ened. For a time there was some buying
by prominent houses, but this only brought
a Biigni reaction. Traders tnougnt that
had not this buying come out the slump
might have been worse. May continued
very weak and closed 1H1VC depressed at
72c. This price is the lowest for Mav since
early in October. Receipts, 22 cars, none
contract; Minneapolis and Duluth reported
267 cars, a total for the three points of 2R9,
against ana last week ana ts a vear ago.
Primary receipts were 447.000 bushels, com
pared to 676,000 bushels last year. Austra
lian shipments were 321,000 bushels, against
498,000 bushels last year. Seaboard clear
ances in wheat and flour equaled 330,000
bushels.
Corn took a headlong- tumble at the nnen.
lng. Lower cables, warmer weather and
general country selling, following hard
upon tne wheat weakness, resulted In an
opening for May Uc to ic lower at 69
E9Hc. Nearly every house on the floor had
selling orders, mop-loss orders were soon
reached and May sagged to 594o befote
some fairly heavy purchases. stitiDosed to
be for a heavy short line, steadied prices.
but It was soon argued that farmers were
more inclined to dispose of their holdings
and the bears started hammering again.
At times good covering was done at the
declining prices. But In corn, as In other
? rains, tnere was always mors long stuff
or sale than could be absorbed. May corn
plunged down to 68e and hung very
heavy, clostng weak. 2c lower at that
figure. Receipts. 134 cars. Trade was verv
large more so than in several weeks.
From the start oats ruled weak. Advan
tage was taken of the weakneas in corn
and wheat to hammer May options, and
they suffered much. July and September
were weaa witn otner grains. Dut met with
a fair support. Receipts were large and 40
per cent or tnem were contract grade. The
warmer weather is doing much to encour
age bears. There wns still much nervous
ness in May, which started 3l4a lower at
42V4C to 42c and declined early to 414c.
There was fair support at this low figure
and May reacted to 42Sc, but on the second
corn break oats flattened out and May
closed weak, lHo lower at 41c Receipts
were 149 cars.
Provisions early developed a very strong
tone in the face of such depression an was
experienced in grains. Hogs were higher
and receipts lighter. There was a mod
demand In all products and offerings were
very light at the advances that were made.
Towara tne close, however, when the big
brenk came In corn, provisions lost some

the evidence on the whole case Is conflict

will not be set aside on the ground that It
Is not sustained by the evidence.
2. In an action by a wife against her
father-in-law for alienating the affections
of her husband and causing him to aban
don her. parental advice, honestly given
without malice and with the Intention of
benefiting the son, is a defense: but where
such advice is not pleaded or proven at the

give Instructions based on that theory.
3. It Is a fundamental rule that the In

made by the pleadings. Instructions asked

CATTLE There were not enough cattle
here today to make a market, and for
the week receipts have also been rather
moderate. A decrease of about 2,000 head
Is noted as compared with the previous
week, and as compared with the same week
of last year there is a still greater de
crease. The demand on the part of local
Dackers has been active all the week, ana
as a result the market has been active and
strong.
A fair proportion or me onenngs mis
week consisted of beef steers, and some of
the cattle showed considerable quality. The
bulk of the offerings, however, was made
up of the medium grades, and the demand
for that class of cattle was exceptionally
good. In fuct, handyweight cattle of
medium price are selling better than the
choice heavyweights, though all kinds are
higher than they were a week ago. As a
general thing the market may be quoted
Wn'2oc higher. The greatest advance has
been on the medium kinds, flood to choice
cattle are quotable from $6.00 to $6.75, me
dium grades from $5.40 to $5.90, and the
commoner gtao.es are selling irom a.jo
down.
The cow market is aiso very active so
far as good stuff is concerned, and prices
are now at the highest point reached so
far this year. Packers are all very anxious
for the better grades and are paying pro
portionately higher prices for them than
for steers. In view of the high prices
ruling the market is, of course, rather
uneven, but there Is no doubt but what
the kinds that are selling from $4.75 to $"i 60
are higher than they were a week ago.
Cattle that sell below $4.00 are neglected
and no more than steady with last week,
fanners. In particular, are hard to dispose
of, as none or me pacaers seem to want,
them and sellers have to take whatever
they can get.
Bulls, veal calves and stags are all fully
as high aa they were a week ago. Good
stuff sells readily, but common stuff Is
There have been a good many stock cattle
on sale, and prices on both steers and she
stuff is 154j25c lower for the week except
where the quality Is very choice. The
best grades are fully steady. Strictly prime
m-elirhlnir from 1.000 tO l.lllO DOUIldS
would doubtless sell at $5.00 or better. The
bulk of tne came ut-iua unr-iu, imwevri,
are selling from $3.75 to $4.25, with most
of the good to choice grades going from
llK n Li
HOGS There was not a very large rin
of hogs here today and the tendency of
prices continued upward, which carries the
orU to the highest point of the month.
The demand was active on the part of
local packers and It only took a short time
for the DU1S. Ul mo unt-i iiiro iu i iiniiKfl
v,or.. The extreme close of the market
was a Utile slow and weak, as packers
seemed to have their more urgent orders
filled. The general market, however, was
a big nickel higher. In some cases sales
were made that were a good deal more
than a nickel higher, but hi, occurred
more often with the lighter Hogs. From
this it is seen that the market was rather
uneven, but the awrage price shows an
advance of more than 5c. The bulk of the
hogs sold from $0.35 to $6.45. Choice heavy
hogs sold largely from $6 35 to $6.45, m
rii.im welKhts went from to 25 to $6.35 and
the lighter loads from $6.25 down. The
niinllm of the hoks as a whole was good.
Receipts cf hogs for the week have been
. tritl leva than for the last several weeks.
but as compared with the same week of
lat year mere ib an increase, i ne gen
eral tendency of prices has been upward
oil th week, the only setback having oc
curred on Thursday. The total advance for
the week amounts tu a nine over due.

8IIKKP There were no fresh
arrivals
of sheep and lambs here today with which
to make a test of the market. For the
week receipts have only been fair, as a
slight decrease In noted as compared with
last week and as compared with the same
week of last year there Is a still greater
decrease. The table at the head of the
column shows the exact figures.
The IochI demnnd has been of liberal
proportions all the week and ns a result the
market Is conslderabl v higher than It was
a week ago. it Is noticeable, however, that
packers all want the good stuff, while the
commoner kinds are more or less neglected.
The quality of the offerings this week has
not been very good, which has had rather
a bad effect upon the market. It is safe to
say, however, that nnythlng good in the
way of sheep la 15g2oc higher than at the
close of last week. I.xmlis have also Im
proved, but there has been nothing choice
offered the last few days to make a fnlr
test 01 tne market. The general opinion Is,
however, that strlctlv choice lambs would
sell 15c or 25c higher than the same kinds
Diougnt last week.
Feeders have been In light supply all the
week, while the demand has been quite
UDerai for desirable grades of both sheep
ana tamos, as a result prices are strong
and, If anything, a little higher than last
weea.
