CATTLE Receipts of cattle this morn
ing numbered fifty-nine cars, being a fait
average run for a Friday. For tne rive
days this week there have arrived at thib
point 19,619 head of cattle, being a gain
of 2.200 head as compared with the same
period last week and of 2,100 head as com
pared with a year ago.
there were hardly enough beef came
In sight this morning to make a market,
but such as there were generally sold in
about the same notches as yesterday. The
trade aa a whole might be summed tip
as a fairly active and steady market.
As compared with a week ago there is
very little change in prices. During Mon
day and Tuesday there wac a sharp ad-
van., but that waa wiped out yesteiuay
and day before, so that the market Is
back lust about where it was on Friday
of last week.
There waa a little sprinkling or cows
and heifers, mostly odds and ends, whicn
sold In about the same notches aa yes
terday. As noted above In regard to
beef steers the market on cows and heif
ers is closing steady with a week ago,
the advance tht, first part or tins ween
having been wiped out.
There were not enough atockers and
feeders In first hands this morning to
talk about. The feeling, however, was
jut about steady with yesterday. Tho
best heavy feeders having a lair amount
of flesh and good quality have been scarce
and In good demand all the week, and
cattle of that description are steady. On
the other band there lias been very little
demand fur light cattle and stockers of
all kinds nnd they are around 25c lower.
Some of the common thin cattle are pos
sibly even worse than that, salesmen in
some cases quoting them 2544.400 lower
than a week ago,

Moderate receipts, amounting to 7.4)
In ad. were cleaned up In snort order,
.radically everything available before
1:30 o'clock moving scaieward on the
first or second bid.
Hulk of run consisted of fed lambs.
ranglnu from plain half-fat stuff to extra
;ood fed westerns. 1 here were no Colo-
rndos on sale to correspond to the t.5a
offering- yesterday, and, as yesterday's
top was outside the general market for
fed westerns, quotations for the latter
classes can hardly claim a itmlt that
high. The best fed westerns showing up
today sold for $6.30, Indicating a top of
V.35. or possibly $6.40. Several strings of
near prime lamba landed at $6.25, but
medium short feils usually had to move
considerably below $6.00. the price range
on cull to choice quality amounting to
fully $1.00.
Matured muttons were scarce and sold
well, toppy ewes bringing $3.S5, with
choice wet hern nuotahlo up to $4.35. Year
lings, choice and light, would probably
land at J.-..40 without, much trouble, but
tho heavier Intnhs are in lcs3 active re
quest nt fairly larn" discounts.
.Comparpd with n, week ago, all kinds of
nt sheep arid lambs are closing about
lofiluc higher, but trade during the last
few days has been very uneven, owing
to natural readjustment of values after
the "crazy" session on New Year's day.
Week's purchase of feeders has been
light, not exceedlnK 2.500 head.

Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will

The year opens with a pronounced In
crease of business confidence based on .
the Improvement during the last threo
months, especially in Iron and steel, cop
per and dry goods, and there is a growing
belier that the new year will prove better
as to the voltimo or business transucle 1
than 1911, though this optimism Is tem
pered by much conservatism. The in
creased operations and largpr working
lorcea feature the cpenlng year in Iron

entirely or were on only part tune are
resuming actively again and the leading;
interest is now running at about 82 per

ABBOTT DISCUSSES COLONEL
Roosevelt Asserted Not, Candidate
for the Presidency.
RELATIONS WITH TAFT RAISED
Colleaane of Former Eaecntlve Says
Third Term Could Come Only
Because Country Wanted
Certain Job Done.
CORNWALL-ON-IIUDSON, N. T.. Jan.
5. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt Is not a
candidate for the presidency, according to
Lawrence F. AbDoti, president of the Out
look company of New York, with which
Mr. Roosevelt Is actively associated.
This statement la made today In the,
Local Press, a weekly newspaper pub
lished here, the home of Mr. Abbott.
The statement revlowa Mr. Roosevelt's
connection with national politics during
the last three years. It was brought out,
the editor of the Local Press says, when
he asked Mr. Abbott whether Mr. RooBe
velt is a candidate for the presidency.
"You must understand, to begin with,"
Mr. Abbott asserted. In what Is termed
a dictated statement, "that whatever I
say In answer to your queston, I say
solely on my own responsibility and with
out any consultation with Mr. Roosevelt.
"You ask me whether Mr. Roosevelt Is
a candidate for the presidency. I answer,
no, he is not a candidate, he does not
desire to be a candidate; he has dis
couraged and is discouraging in every
possible way, all talk of his candidacy
and he will take no active share of any
kind in the contests of various candidates
contests which are always In evidence
for two or three months preceding any
national convention."
He views Political Affairs.
Mr. Abbot tells how Mr. Roosevelt do
cllned the republican nomination In 1908,'
"which he very easily could have had,"
and how Mr. Taft's nomination and elec
tion were brought about.
"'His (Roosevelt's) political experience
contributed so largely to the successful
election that his critics have said that ho
alone nominated and elected Taft," Mr.
Abbott says, and continues:
"Unfortunately some of Mr. Taft'a
advisers took thla mistaken view of the '
case and urged him to separate himself
so thoroughly from any Roosevelt associ
ations that his administration could
create its own policies and that thus lie
might be renominated and re-elected In
1912 on his own Individual merits' with
out any taint of Rooseveltlsm.' "
Mr. Roosevelt has never failed. Mr.
Abbott declares, to respond quickly and
cordially to the slightest wish expressed
by Mr. Taft for his company or his views
and ha Instances the private Interview at
New Haven during the autumn of 1910
between Mr. Taft and Mr. Roosevelt.
That meeting, ha says, had bean un
fortunately announced as having been
sought by Mr. Roosevelt for the purposs
of getting soma help In his contest witli
the "old guard" of the state. He adds:
"Tho facts are and I havs learned
them, not from -Mr. Roosevelt, but from
a friend of Mr. Taft who knew all the
circumstances that Mr. Taft sent word
to Mr. Roosevelt asking lilm to corns in
order that he (Mr. Taft) might get tho
benefit ot Mr. Roosevelt's advlcs regard
ing the serious split In the national af
fairs of the republican party which re
sulted from the fight of the progressives
against so-called 'Cannonism.' "
trust Article Explained.
Mr. Abbott declares that whatever Mr.
Roosevelt does or cays will be Interpreted
by some critics to his disadvantage, and
he Instances an article of Mr. Roosevslt'a
on the trust question published severul
weeks ago. Its publicat.on was held by
come, Mr. Abbott says, to be an Indica
tion that Roosevelt was seeking the presi
dency and that i nonappearance, of the
atticlo was timed by him at Just tho
psychological moment to produce the
greatest effect.
If there was any political astuteness
in Its appearance, according to Mr. Ab
bott. It should go to the editors of his
publication, who suggested the article and
fixed the date for its publication.
If Mr. Roosevelt la ever elected presi
dent again, according to Mr. Abbott, it
will not be because he seeks or wants the
office, but because the country wants him
to perforin a certain job.
