HHJ The vift-k opens out with a fair
supply of hogs. Receipts were estimate J
at UJ cars, or . head. whlv ta a gain
of Ut) over a week ago. Just about the
same as two weeks ago, but almost
double the else of the run on tha corre
sponding Monday laat year.
OutaiUe liUjua were a Utile slow In
starting this morning, and on early
rounds their pun liases were not very
large, but when they started in to fill
their orders it was at prices that were
mainly steady wan trie early trade w
urday. He tore the day waa out they bad
bought a very fair share of tha supply,
their purchases of the better butcher
weight end heavy ' hogs being matte
mainly at IS.i.yO .16. with some of the
litrhtrr stuff on down.
On the start packera talked lower
prices, hardly anv bills bring put out
during the first hour or so. They were
unable, however, o buy much of any
thing at a lower mst and when actual
trading finally started sellers who had
been aaklng fully ateady prices carried
their point, bulk of the packing hogs
selling -at figurea that were fully steady
with the average at last weeks close.
Values were hardly aa good aa at the
best time Saturday, I in were conald
ersbly better thsn at Saturday's weak
finish, and averaged up fully ateady with
the geDeral market at the cloae of the
week.
Buik of the sales waa made at the

KHEKP Hheep end lamb receipts were
q iite a bit lisliter than usual for a Mon
day, oniy about twenty-three care, or
6) head being reported In. Thla Is S.tuO
short of a week ago, 3 (no smaller than
two weeka ago, aud only a little more
tr,u & third as large as for the same day
laxt year.
Under the influence, of comparatively
IlKhl supplies, and a broad demand for
hglt aud hsndyweight Isnriia. these
a ruitM scored an advance of mostly 16a.
The market opened in vti fair season,
and practically everyt hlng Jp' the desired
moderate welshts had Ijeeu cleaned up
by aiturtlv attr rold forenoon. F.ikM loada
of Hood Mxli all laniLs sold to 111 SO. the
blcti prl of the eraaon to dale, and
f-...- that matter aa lush aa has ever been
paid fur fed taint's. CHher Mexican lamba
o.d to 8)1 40 and a good kind of handy
Vright westerns readied 111.25.
tM.rdl f enous ! ews were here to give
lu. trie market, but the prices paid
for the few bunches that were offered
ahowed nt leaat aa much advance aa lamb
valuea, that Is around 16c. Fed weaterns
that brought 87. W were from the same
f"ed lot aa those at 17.78 last Wlday.
They were of fairly decent quality, but
their fleecea carried quite a bit of mud.
A email packace of frood kind of ewes
sold to SX 26, but at the preeant something;
toppy would sell a little better than that.
As waa the rasa at the latter end of
last week buyers protested aralnst tak
ns; the heavy lambs and took their time
about huytna; them. Quality waa, how
ever, very ood aa a aeneral thins;, and
ss tha percentage of heavy stuff offered
waa amall everything was cleaned up
before noon. Prices paid were uneven,
owlna; to the fact that buyers proved to
be poor ftueesers on weights In some
raaes, but In moat Instances showed at
leaat as much advance as light lamb
valuea. Aa was noted above buyers were
Inclined to be a little more lenient on
weighty grades today owing to the fact
that at beat offerlnsa were slim, but the
fact remains that weight Is not wanted,
and on heavier receipts would prove a
serious handicap.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISION!
Features ot tha Tracing? aa Closing;
r rices s Beard of Trace.
CHICAGO, March 20. Freeh rumors of
Peace led to a sudden bearish, reaction
In tha wheat market today Just before
the . close. NorA'ithatanduig, however,
that latest price were heavy, the finish
with May at II.Ol'H and July at II. OS1
showed a net gain of 2WC to tc, largely
the result of bad crop conditions In Illi
nois and other winter wheat states. Corn
gained Nfto to ltllHa. and oats, o to
Vuc. In provisions the outcome was
unchanged to llVfco higher.
Kxcept In the last fifteen minutes of
the session, when peace reports gave the
market a Jolt, wheat waa decidedly on
the advance the greater part of the time.
The chief bullish Influence at tha outset
came from the Illinois official crop report,-,
which gave tha percentage condi
tion for tha state aa only 06, aa against
74 on Msrch 1. and whloh said 31 per
cent of the planted acreage had been
winter-killed. Damage - advlcea from
Ohio, Indiana and Missouri tended sub
sequently to Increase bullish sentiment
and so, too, did drouth complaints from
Texaa. Oklahoma and western Kanaas,
Hlgheat prices of the day were reached
after the United Btatea vlalhte supply
total was announced as exhibiting an
unexpected falling off of 1731.000 bushels.
Itasplte the fact that peace reports,
which became current lata In the session,
were unconfirmed, the effect was to dis
count at once statements thst foreigners
hsd been buying mtures here and that
the reported aelaures of German vessels
In Brasll were untrue. It waa estimated
that 1.6O0.000 bushels of wheat had been
purchased today and Baturday for export
to P.urope, mainly, though, Manitoba
Wheat and May-June shipment.
Corn awsyed with wheat. Blowness of
eastern shipping acted to some extent as
a check on the bulla Oats derived aome
of their strength from tha dry weather
news sent by ths southwest. It was said,
also, that Baltimore waa actively In tha
market for caah oata.
Continued demand for lard tended to
lift the prevlaion Hat aa a whole. ICxport
shipments of lard for the week were
3.0U),vu pounds more than for the corre
sponding lime laat year.

TURKEY IS TO LOSE
WHOEYERWINS OUT
If Germany Wint Turkey Will Be
Protectorate Alliet Will Di
vide Up the Country.
SAYS MAN WHO WA& THERE
That it Is an absolute fallacy that
there is a holy war being waged In
Turkey Is the oontentjpn of Prof.
L'dgar J. Banks, who spent twelve
eara in the Ottoman empire and
has probably traveled more exten
sively In that country than any other
American.
Prof. Banks Is a guest at the Hotel
I'onteoelle. He will lecture every
night this week In the Young
Women's christian association audi
torlum under the auspices of the
Young Men's Christian association
and the Young Women's Christian
association.
A American cnsul to Bagdad, pri
vate secretary to 'American minister to
Turkey and field director to tha Baby
Ionian expedition of the University ot
Chicago to Blamya, Prof. Banks had ex
ceptional opportunities for studying con
ditions In all parts of the Turkish em
pire.. '
To Refer After War.
While being widely known for his work
In the United Ststes diplomatic service
In Turkey, Prof. Banks admits that he
pursued his consular duties as a "sideline."-
He Is primarily an archaeologist
and will return to his field of operations
at the termination of the war provid
ing the allies win.
All archaeologists concede the fact, he
declared, that If the Teutonic countries
are victorious In the war Germany and
Oerman archaeologists will excavate the
old cities and ruins, but will bsr all
others. He believes that archaeologists
from America and other countries will
find themselves totally cut off from their
fields of endeavor in Turkey If Germany
wins.
On the other hand, Prof. Banks as
serted. If the allies win. archaeologists
of standing from any country will be per
mitted to make any excavations they
wish. ,
Reverting to the subject of the present
situation In Turkey, Prof. Banks added
that It "was all nonsense about a holy
war. The percentage of praying Moham
medans is no greater than that, for In
stance, of praying Unitarians. Contrary
to all beliefs prevailing among people
In the United States and other countries,
religion doesn't rest mora heavily on the
mind of tha Mohammedan than It does
on anyone else.
Turkey Loses Klther Way.
"One thmr Is certain Turkey after the
war loses her Independence. If Germany
wins she will make Turkey a protectorate.
Tha allies would divide tha county up into
small states.
"Tha officials ara the only Turks who
favor Germany in this war. The com
mon people ara for tha English, for they
know that tha country owes its existence
to tha British empire.
"When thla war Is over the country will
undergo tha greatest change since 14GS,
when Turks captured Constantinople,
"Germany's ambitions in Turkey were"
evident to me when I was a student In
Germany, twenty years ago. They were
talking them: Berlin to Bagdad.' "

(Continued from Saturday.)
CHAPTER X.
Pollock's Threat.
The green shaded lamp flung a wide
pool of mellow light over the scattered
papers on the table and brought out boy
ish gljnts In Langdon's dark head aa it
lay on his folded arms, sunk in Ineffable
weariness..
All through the long hours of the night
he had kept his lonely vlglK now poring
over the legal documents on the table,
now pacing the floor in a frensy of
anxiety, or making his way down the
echoing corridors to look In with mute
suffering at the room where Dr. Foster
and Nurse Walton watched so silently be
side a moaning, twitching figure on a
narrow prinon bed. But when the scanty
furniture of the office was gradually
emerging from the enveloping cloak of
night Into visible ugliness he had at last
sunk Into a doze of complete exhaustion.
Miss Walton, coming to the door, an
eager message on her Hps, turned silently
and pityingly away. Some betraying
sound reached him, however, and he
lirted his head with a start, blinking to
find the lamplight paling before the gray
of morning.
Tawning, he got to his feet and crossed
to the window. He flung It wide and
drew In great breaths of the chill air.
A heavy fog was wrapping the city in
dense gray waves, and from the river
came the minor monotony of warning
whistles. Dreary as it was, his heart
lightened; for after all, It was morning,
and he was still young enough to feel
that nothing can be quite so bad In the
day as It Is in tha shadows of the night.
For the, first time since Mary's attack
of madness in the court room he realized
fully how tremendous an asset the
tragedy was to the defense, and In spite
of his grief, as a lover, over her suffering,
the lawyer in him exulted in tha episode
which cemented Into place the corner
stone of his- case.
The thought of thla lent a hint of
buoyancy to his tired body as ho made
another trip to 7 the cell where, at Dr.
Foster's orders, they had carried Mary,
still screaming with frensy. But it was
the lover rather than the lawyer Who
had surged uppermost by tho time he
reached the door, and all thoughts ef
the trial were submerged In an overween
ing anxiety and pity for the slender girl
who was paying so heavy a price for her
father's sin of drunkenness.
Mary herself was sleeping soundly when
ha glanced into tha cell, and Dr. Poster
was on his feet, frankly stretching, while
RUSSIANS START j
HEAYOFFENSIYE
Germans Count Over Nine Thousand
Dead Before lines After
it is Over.
AIRMEN ARB VERY BUSY
With the slackening of the fight
ins; around Verdun, the Russians
have started a big offensive move
ment against the Germans on the
eastern front. A raid by Oerman
aeaplanea on the east coast of Eng
land and by French airmen on Mets
and other German towns, the sink
ing of a French torpedo destroyer
by a submarine In the Adriatic, and
the reported torpedoing of an Aus
trian hospital ship by an - entente
underwater boat are recorded in of
ficial and unofficial communications.
Berlin chronicles an attack of
great violence by the Russians
around Driswlaty lake and Lake
Narocs, but says the Russlana were
repulsed with great, losses, 9,270
Russian dead having been counted in
the Lake Koroci region.
Attack Is RepaUed.
Saturday the Germans In the Vaux
Damloup sector, northeast of Verdun,
began another spirited attack aga'nat the
French, but were driven back. Tha at
tack was not pushed again during Sun
day, and only intermittent bombardments
took place. ,
. Berlin reports tha recapture of some :
ground from the British northeast of
Vermellcs, In the region of La Basse and
the driving of tha French from a position
northeast of Bsdonvllle in the Vosges.
London admits tha capture by the Ger
mans of three mine craters at the Hohen
zollern redoubt.
Preset Uans Baay.
The French guns have been busy bom
barding German trenches In Champagn
and German depots northeast ot 8t
Mlhtel. Five French aeroplanes dropped
bombs on Mets, ammunition depots near
Chateau Saline and the aerodrome at
Dteuxe, while twenty-three other ma
chines attacked the aviation camp at
Habahetm aud the freight station at
Mulhajisen. In battles In the air which
followed, the Germans and the French
each lost three -or four machines. A Ger
man airship attacked the entente alliel
fleet south of Solonikt. but with waat
result Berlin does not say.
Three officers and forty-four men of
the crew of the French torpedo boat
destroyer Renaudtn were lost when a
Teutonic submarine sent the vessel to
the bottom in the Adriatic.
Air Raid's Toll.
Ia an air raid by four German sea
planes over Dover, Ramsgata and West
gate, at least nine persons were killed and
thirty-one Injured. One of the seaplanes
was brought down thirty miles at sea
by a pursuing British aviator. The Ger
man observer waa killed.
The German admiralty officially denies
that a German submarine waa responsible

Essanay
Miss Walton was bathing her tired eyes
at the basin in the corner.
Both greeted him with a smile, and,
answering the question in his eyes rather
than the one he huskily whispered with
his Hps. Dr. Foster said:
"She will be all right now. She woke,
conscious, Just after your last vfslt and
Is now sleeping soundly. There's noth
ing to worry about at least, not Just at
present." '
"Thank God!" Langdon's voice broke
on the words, and Dr. Foster put out his
hand antf patted the shoulder of the
younger man reassuringly, saying:
"We all say that, hut you'd better go
get some rest now; you look done up."
"Oh. I'm right." said Langdon. "But,
doctor. Is she Is it going to be pnsslbls
to go on with this trial? Can Mary brat
It?"
"I think so." The answer came slowly.
"Of course yesterday's scene was bad,
very bad. But you must realise that the
attack, while It was plainly due to the
whiskey thrust upon her was only to
some extent brought about by the fact
that the liquor was handed her at a time
when she was hysterical and had been
re-ennoting ev ents- that kept her earlier
experiences constantly In her mind. Given
healthy surroundings and happiness. I
wouldn't worry about attacks In the fu
ture. But it's a fine reflection upon an
American city," ho continued harshly,
drawing Langdon out Into the hall so
as not to wake Mary. "A fine thing
when it impossible to keep one woman
from the sight of drunken men and the
smell of liquor."
Langdon nodded absently, for his heart
was echoing the earlier words of the great
alienist: "Giving healthy surroundings
and happiness I wouldn't worry about
attacks in the future," and he was vow
ing to himself that, cost what It might,
he would yet win freoc'om and happiness
for her.
He had not dared to hope that she
would be well enough for the trial to
continue for some days at least, but
when she woke a few hours later she
vowed she was perfectly able to go Into
court even then. And so. no more than
ftjs hour late, the proceedings were con
tinued. That hour had seemed a very short
time to Mary and to Langdon, but It
was a very long one to the excited spec
tators who crowded the rooms to the
doors, whispering excited remlnlscenscs
of the day before.
Whatever douhts had lingered In the
minds of the public as to the veracity
and the strength of the dd'ense built up
by Langdon had been shattered at one
blow. For Mary, as everyone said,
might Indeed have teen actress enough
to feign madness at the eight of tha
drunken policeman, but she could not
have feigned that great bruise on" her
shoulder. The shadow cf the gripping
hand with those HvLl scars beneath it
told mutely of how the cruel fingers
had torn Into the tender flesh. ,
The newspaper bearing Dr. Foster's ar
ticle on "Repressed Psychosis" which the
district attorney had so sarcastically In
troduced as evidence, had been pored
over by every juryman, and from coast
to coast the dramatic story of the scene
In court waa the one subject at the
breakfast tables of rich and poor alike.

FLYNN SAYS HE HAS BEEN
"AND OTHERS" FOR 10 YEARS
Hera's a throbbing chapter from the
life-story of a statesman. United States
Marshal Flynn slipped It to us.
"I was one of the 'and others' for ten
years," said the marshal.
Now what In creation Is an . "and
others," we wonder?
"Yes," laughed Mr. Flynn. "I used to
go out making speeches with the mayor
and I'd climb out of bed at 5 o'clock
the next morning to get the papers and
see If my name and my remarks were
properly recorded.
"And It always came out this way.
The mayor and others spoke.' I waa
one of the 'and others' for ten years. It
Isn't pleasant to be an 'and others.' "
The marshal was recently quoted in a
speech. Herffe, his gratification at be

If hard pressed Villa might, officials

task of trailing Villa to earth. Elahvrate
scouting plans are understood to have
been completed. -
