CATTLE Cattle receipts were fair as
compared with recent weeks, although
smaller than Monday of last week and
slightly smaller than a year ago. At the
same time advices from . other selling
points lacked a great deal of being en
couraging, and the altuatlon was for that
reason against the selling Interests. Buy
ers were slow about getting down to
business, holding back apparently with
the idea of getting later Information from
other selling points before doing very
much. The result was a slow and very
draggy market on all kinds of cattle
without exception whatever. There were
no strictly prime heavy beef steers, but
there were some right good light cattle
and as high as 89.16 was paid. The best
grades of weighty cattle might be quoted
steady, but the general run of common
to right good steers were 10&15o lower
than last week. . ,
The general market on cows and heifers
showed about the same decline as beef
steers, although, as a matter of course, a
right good bunch of dry lot cows or
heifers might possibly have commanded
steady or close to steady prices,
Stockers and feeders were very hard to
move for the reason that there wer mor
of that kind of cattl on sale, while buy
ers were backward about holding at pre
vailing prices, which to their eyes look
high. As a result the market on all
kinds of stock cattle and feeders was
low and lower. , .

HOGS Buyers had not been out very
many minutes this morning before it was
plainly evident that a change had come
over 'he market since the close of last
we?k. Buyers were no longer looking
after weight but on the contrary Quality
appeared to be uppermost la their minds
regardless of weight In fact U anything,
light hogs were in better demand than
t lie heavies, at least that seemed to be
the case early. Thus it happened that
the market opened with good light hogs
Kvlling at fully steady prices, with tho
lens .desirable light weights weak to oc
.ower than last week's general market
Heavy hogs were slow all the morning.
and there was no time when they were
better than 6c lower than Saturday, and
tne general market on heavies would have
to be quoted as J10c lower. Even the
govd heavies showed the full amount of
the decline as well as the rougher loads.
The market was slow, and it was late
before., a clearance had been effected.
It would be well for the country to
bear in mind that the season of the year
is at hand when light and heavy hogs
frequently change places, the best lights
commanding a premium over the heavies.
That may not take place just now, but
It would surprise no one if it did, but it
is very safe to say that quality rawer
than weight will cut more Ilgure man
during the last few months.

BHEKP Receipts of sheep and Iambs
this morning were fairly large when com
pared with the shipments arriving hers
during the laxt week or so, as twenty
loads, or about 5,000 head, were received
at the yards. This is about 700 head more
than last Monday and 3,000 head more
than two weeks ago. On the whole the
quality of today's supply showed a great
deal of improvement over last week, sev
eral loads of fairly good western spring
lambs and wethers showing up in the re
ceipts. Bulk of the consignments were
from the west, consisting of seven loads
ot Oregon wethers, a load and a half of
Oregon spring lambs, load and a half of
Oregon ewes, two loads Idaho spring
lambs, three loads ot Idaho wethers auu
a load or two of fed stuff from the corn
belt area. -
Buyers were out fairly early, but It was
some little time before any sales were
made. With large receipts at Chicago
and other eastern markets there was a
very bearish - influence exerted on the
local market here. , This feeling was made
worse on account of the fact that prices
at the close of last week at Chicago took
bis slump, the decline on goou spring
lambs being 76c to $1 lower.
OuottUinu on Hheen and lambs: Good
spring lambs, $7.008.60; fed shorn lambs,
to.uuWi.H); iat range yearungs,
fat range wethers, $4.6004.80; fat range
eweB, $3.754.25.
When buyers and sellers nnauy got to
gether It was on the basis of prices that
were generally lfa&c lower than last
week's close. The market , when once
under way was active at the decline and
everything was sold in good season in
the morning.

NEW YORK, July L-Wall street did
little more than mark time today while
the democratic convention at Baltimore
wentthrough a series of futile ballots.
The stock market maintained a firm
undertone, however, with some further
sensational gains in the specialties em
braced within the tobacco group. The bet
ter known issues Just about held their
own, with more demand for local trac
tions, especially Brooklyn Transit, which
rose smartly on announcement that one
of the higher courts had passed favorably
on the validity of Its financing in con
nection with the construction of the new
subway.
General news of the day included the
engagement of another $2,000 gold for ex
port to Paris, making a total of $6,000,000
thus far on the movement Nothing in
the day's events abroad gave an Intima
tion that foreign markets were likely to
experience any serious trouble from the
mid-year settlement Trading here for
Dondon may reach 10,000,000 shares. ' Re
specting home trade conditions, western
railway officials were unanimous in re
porting better prospects with increased
soundness in the fundamental situation
and a steady moving of freight of a
miscellaneous character, which helped to
offset depreciation in other traffic.
The Pennsylvania railroad Bhowed a
loss ot $34,000,000 in clearings on its lines
east and west, the decrease coming from
operations west ot Pittsburgh. New
York Central fell off $282,000 in net,
largely because of an increase of $T37,000
in operating expenses. Missouri Pacific
continues to issue favorable reports, its
total net revenue for May increasing
$876,000.
The bond market was irregular with
strength in rBooklyn Transit converti
bles. Total sales, par value, $2,805,000.

A noted lawyer of Tennessee, who
labored under the defects of having a
high temper and being deaf, walked into
a court room presided over by a younger
man. of whom tne older practitioner had
a small opinion.
Presently, in the hearing of a motion,
there was a clash between the lawyer and
the judge. The Judge ordered the lawyer
to sit down, and as the lawyer, being deaf,
didn't hear him and went on talking, the
Judge fined him $10 for contempt.
The lawyer leaned toward the cierk
and cupped his hand behind his ear.
"What did hs say?" he inquired.
"He fined you $10," explained th clerk.
"For what?"
"For contempt of this court,' said the
clerk.- .
The lawyer shot a poisonous look to
ward the bench and reached a hand into
his pocket.
"I'll pay it," he said. "It's a Just debt"

Hope.
For the first time in nearly a year

who broke his neck diving from the rocks
at Hudson park on the night of July 3,
1911, is able to stand on 'his feet. Until
this morning he was believed to be he.p

that he would recover and tbi has aided
his improvement.
This morning he was sitting tn an In

He was telling them that he could lift his
legs off the -chair and sit up and did tt
for them. One of his friends asked- if he
could stand. Though he had not at
tempted it, be answered:
"Sure I can. Just watch me."

"Say. fellows," explained Waldorf when
his mother was out of hearing. "1 told
you that 1 would wolk within a year, ynd
I'll bet I'll come pretty near keeping my
promise. Gee, this is great. If you
hadn't asked me if I could stand, and
made me chuck a bluff, I don't think I
would have known what I could do. -I'll
bet I'll be out on crutches in a joale of
months."
"The recovery of Miller has been alow.
At first the physicians had no hope of his
recovery, but Miller never gave up. Sav
edal months after the accident he was
able to move his head. He gradually re
gained the use of his fingars and arms,
and then he found he could wriggle h's

pencils with his hands.-New York Sun.
