Berlin has also contributed noma 15,000

CATTLL -As Is generally the cose on
Haturday there was nothing of any con
sequence In beef cattle on sale and prices
wei-e nominally unchanged. For the week
receipts nave been a lltu over l,o head,
or aoout 1.000 more than last week and
fully 8,00 more than for the third week
head, ueing the heaviest on the board,
inge has been very good all week, the
percentage of Immature stock being com
paratively small.
Trade in Blockers and feeders has been
very quiet. Supplies have been ania.ll and
on account of the rush of farm work the
demand from the country has been very
limited. Trend of values has been stead
ily downward and compared with two
weeks ago the bulk of the stock cattle
and feeding steers show pretty close to
60c decline. Some fancy yearlings or
choice fleshy steers would sell about as
well at any time, but the outlet for the
general tun of stockera and feeders is
very narrow.

HOOH Supplies were even larrer than
yesterday, the run of 178 cara. or 12 100
in May a year ago. Quality of the offer-
j nis is tne Heaviest Saturday run since
three weeks sgo, and with that excep
tion since In March. Total for the week
ia 70,719 head, being 24.000 heavier than
a week ago, and a gain of 16,000 over
a year ago.
Trade opened out In fair season, and
In view of the heavy reoelpta. In pretty
decent shape. Shippers bought rather
sparingly on a nickel lower basis, making
most of their purchases around $7.45. and
acme as high as $7.40. Packers tried to
buy hogs nearly a dime lower, but In the
"tin me most ot toe ortenngs moved at
figures that were no more than a nickel
off. Heavy hogs, which have been in
such disfavor the Isst two weeks, con
tinue to sell at the bottom of the string.
Today packers discriminated more than
ever attains t the rough, weighty kinds
with the result that they were alow
sellers at prices that were about 10c
lower. As has been the case nearly
every day of late, there were a few
heavies left after the bulk of the offer
ings had been cashed, and this made the
wlndup slow, but a pretty fair clearance
naa Deen maae Dy io:ai.
Hulk of all the sales was made at 17.V
7:30, with some rough heavies as low as
47.10, and tops at $7.40. Lor the week
prices are mostly 20c lower, which Is
not so ' bad considering the size of the
offerings on most days. Bulk a week
ago was selling at $.4f07.6u, with quite
a springing as mgn as r'.ao, the top.

Here was nothing on sale. The week's
total amounta to aomethlng like 12.708
head, being a few head amaTler than for
the oorieapondlng daya last week and
only about half as large as the supply
for the same period a year ago. This
week's total is the smallest since the
third week of June, 1U1J.
Aged sheep have been In very light
supply, nothing but a few clipped ewes
showing up, and have ahown a generally
lower tendency. Prices at Chicago are
quoted at 6Vi&c below last week and
It is conceded that any swes offered
locally would sell at least 3660o under
laat week's quotations. There have been
no yearlings or wethers of any descrip
tion here and as the season changes
from the wnoled to the clipped atock it
is next to Impossible to say where they
would sell.

German Emperor
Protects Property
Of French Of ficers
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.
BERLIN. Mar If The Tagellche
Rundschau publishes an article telling
how the emperor generously responded
to an appeal from a French family whose
home was in the French city where the
Imperial headquarters now are. This
family, that of a French lieutenant, fled
from the city when it was occupied by
the Germane. Before leaving they
packed carefully the things they could
not take along, mostly clothing, and left
part of it in their own house and part In
the house of a neighbor, where the em
peror now lives. The lieutenant was later
wounded and desired to go to the south
of France for convalescence, but he and
Lis family needed many of the articles
left behind.
Friends of the officer's parents, who live
In Luxembourg, advised a direct appeal
to the emperor. They ocorfed at the idea,
declaring that the ruler had other things
to do than concern himself with the
clothing of French officers. The friends
Insisted, however, and a careful list of
the things desired was made out and
sent, with an appeal to the emperor,
through his headquarters chief. General
von Plessen Three days later a high
officer appeared at the home of the offi
cer's parents in a headquarters automo
bile and delivered, at the emperor'
command, every article on the list sub
mitted. - t
Dutch Would Keep
Their Cash at Home
(Correspondence ofhe Associated Press.)
THE HAGUE, Netherlands, May 11
Attention is beins; given In business eli
des In Holland to the question ot the
possibility of creating new Industries In
thla country and by this means rendering
the Netherlands more Independent of
other countries in the event In the fu
ture of a similar crisis -arising to that
brotiKt-.t about by the present European
war. Numberg of Industrial men have
taken the subject under consideration, but
nothing definite baa yet been proposed.
The Dutch people In most Instances are
unaware of the poealbutties' In e way
of Investment tn their own country and
goner ally place their capital abroad In
stead of uniting In an effort to keep their
money at home, where with proper or
ganization trio, returns would be juat
as high as those they receive from for
eign investments, while the starting of
home Industries would be useful In pro
viding work for their fellow countrymen,
who are sorely hit by a crisis as that
now prevailing. -
Owing to Holland's dependence in ma
terials from outside, several of the na
tional Industries have for the time being
been ruined and those employed In them
have been thrown out of work. For in
stance, the susrar factories and refineries,
of which there are thirty in Holland, had
been badly affected. In the first place
by the prohibition of the export of sugar
beet from Germany, Austria-Hungary
and Belgium and tn the second place y
the refusal ot England to permit imports
of sugar from Holland owing to fears
that German sugar might come Into the
British Isles in that way.
MOVEMENT NOW ON FOOT TO
RAISE PRICE OF PETROLEUM
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
BERLIN, May 18. A great scarcity of
petroleum prevails In Berlin. According
to some reports it cannot be bought in
shops at all. Notwithstanding the
scarcity however, the price has been held
uniformly at 22 pfennigs per litre since
the war began, but there ta now a move
ment on foot to raise tt to 30 pfenntga.
It ia explained that the German branch
of the 8tandard Oil company purposely
kept down the price so that petroleum
might not ne displaced during the war by
gaa or electricity.

Rtrikino- r,in. of Brief Session Made
by War Specialties.
EJTTTRE LIST IN THE BISE
HEW TORK, May 22. Judging from
the course of today's stock market, wall
Street, or at least the speculative fra
ternity, la proceeding on the tlseory that
Italy's participation in the war Is cal
culated to ahorten the conflict This
theory ia hardly to be reconciled, how
ever, with the fact that the most strik
ing gains of the brief sesalon were again
made bv the war specialties, crucible
steel and Bethlehem steel leading.
Should the war come to a speedy end.
It Is obvious that demand for munition
and other supplies of like character would
be materially reduced. Crucible steel,
which made a maximum gain of
points, contributed 26 per cent to tho
first hour's bualness.
The entire ilat took part In the rise,
which was most active in the first thirty
minutes, after which trading dwindled
with some effect on values. In numer
ous Instances hlkher prices were made in
the second hour, but general recessions
from the beat ruled at the cloae, Beth
lehem Hteel yielding all its advance. Re
ports of an anti-American demonstration
at Berlin caused Some late selling.
Total snJes of stocks amounted to 367,
000 shares.
London was observing a holiday,
the local market was without guidance
from that quarter. Private cables from
London and other - International centers
threw no new light upon the International
situation, hut in local circles the belief
prevailed that Germany's reply to this
government regarding the Lueit nla in
cident would pave the way to a better
understanding between Washington and
Berlin.
The statement of the president of the
Cnlted Htatea Bteel corporation that the
output of the company's plants has In
creased to 75 per cent as against the 40
per cent of January was doubtless re
eponaible for the strength of steel share.
Mercantile agencies alao reported more
favorable conditions in geneal lines
Kantm crop reports, estimating a wheat
yield of 80 per oent, shows a deprecia
tion of almost 14 per cent from last
month's esttmatea
A moderate loan contraction and a
small increase of reserves were the only
features of the bank statement, which
failed to disclose an expected sain of
cash.
