Sheep Actual offerings were leas than
thirty oars, packers getting s load or io
direct and a couple of oars of shaarlna- and
feeding lambs going through, but the mar-
vet was one ot the draggieet seen here In
some Ume, and that Is earing e good deal
(or alow trade have been the rule. Pecfcere
l were out for lie declines this mornlna. and
while they paid prices that some traders'
fanea ncariy steady xor a load or two, they
tarried tbelr point on moat ef their our.
chases. Feeder buyers helped out by taking
eovnrat can, but even then there were still
around five loads of good fat lambs unsold
at midday. The day's top. Ill 00. was Mid
' let mixed Mexicans and westerns that wre
extremely light, but none too well finished.
About tbe only other wooled lambs pack en
had beach t up to midday ware three loada
tit good Colorado that looked quite a little
lower at 114.16, Shorn lambs looked weak
to a little lower. Fair light ones were
bought at II 1.16. and weighty hind took

ot 111.36. Sellers were slmnlr ud aa-alnat a

New Tork. April 3. Operntiona on the
Stock exchange today denoted the mixed
feeling and bewilderment of profeeelonal
trader arlulng from over-night develop
monte. The prenldent'e mewaf to con
greaa caused an Irregular demonstration of
etrength at the opening, Important aalea,
however, falling to- reapond In more than
minor degree.
Helling for proflta materially reduced
moat of the gains before the end of the
first hour, but at noon prlcea recovered
midway on a moderate resumption of de
mand. Tho entire Hut. with a few unim
portant exception, fell back In the laat half
of the aesalon, the re vernal being elmullane
oua with the failure of the senate to take
action on the war resolution.
The only marked reflection of the new
policy to which the government la com
mitted waa Been in the strong tone of Inter
national bonds, Anglo-Frenrh le gaining
3j, with l'i fir City of Paris 6a and a
concurrent hardening of remittances to
Tart.. Lires also .stiffened, but rublea
yielded.
The Irregular course of the atock market
waa Inaugurated by the movements of euch
leaders as United States Steel' and other
active stocks. Steel made an advance of
over 1 points to 11814 in the first half hour
on buying on a seemingly aubetantial char
actor, but fell back to lltVi, closing at
116',, a net Ions of half a point
Both ehem Steel and otlier munition, as
well as such equipments aa usually follow
In the train of v.ar shares, were 1 to 4
points higher at their best, but these Issues
slno surrendered for the most part to pres
sure. .
Ralls suffered additional restraint by
reason of unfavorable crop reports and earn
ings, the setback ranging from t to 4 points
In coalera, trunk lines and grangers to 0
points In Canadian Pacific. Shippings were
less reactionary, with metals, oils and, mo
tors. Ohio (Ibb and Wilson Packing, recent
atrong features, forfeited from S to almoat 4
points,
Total sales, 150,000 shares. Domestic
bonds, ratlwaya and Induntrlala were Irregu

of 16,700,000, par value, resulted mainly

To Tell the Called Party
"Wait a Minute, Please,"
is Telephone Discourtesy
A telephone conversation cannot begin until
the calling party and the called party are on the
line at the same time.
Business men are frequently annoyed when
they answer the telephone by being told by
someone in the office calling, ."Please wait a
minute", and then being foroed to neglect their,
work while they wait until the calling party is
ready to talk.
, Most busy business men in using the tele
phone practise courtesy, as they themselves ex
pect it of others. They ask for the telephone
number themselves and hold the receiver to
their ear until the called party answers.
Courtesy Improves the Service
Courtesy is a factor in good telephone ser
vice. The calling party should be ready to talk
as soon as the called party answers.
It is not a kind act to request your private
switchboard operator or office girl to interrupt
a busy man and ask him to "wait a minute"
until you are ready to talk to him.
' Telephone courtesy is no more than doing to
others as you would that they should do unto
you.

KAMARAD ESCAPES ,
FROM JAIL AT ORD
Self-Confessed Murderer of 13-Year-Old
Girl Tunnels His
Way Out of Prison.
HIS TRIAL SET FOR TODAY
Ord, Neb., April 3. (Special Tele
gram.) Louis Kamarad, aelf-con-iessed
murderer of Alice Parko.
escaped from the Valley county jail
during the night and is at large. Sher
iff Bell returned with the prisoner last
evening from Lincoln, where Kamarad
had been held at the state penitentiary
for safekeeping, preparatory to being
arraigned in the district court this
morning.
Two guards were left on duty by
Sheriff Bell when he went home late
last night. Guard Rockhold says that
he knows Kamarad was in the cell at
5 o'clock this morning.
There are indications that Kamarad
went to Miskos' slaughter house on
the dge of town, broke in and took a
32-caliber rifle with fifty shells. There
are reasons to believe that he secured
an automobile, although no one has j
reported such a loss.
Five hundred men responded when
the fire bells were rung as alarm this
morning and every part of the coun
try is being searched by armed posses.
The new barn of David Haught, be
tween Ord and North Loup, burned
during the night, and it is alleged that
the automobile that wa. kept therein
is missing. District court is suspended
today while attorneys and court offi
cers are joining the search. A brick
partition between the county jail
rooms and the coal room in the base
ment was tunneled through.
Kamarad was left at 10:30 last
night locked in. an iron cell in the
custody of two guards, Tom Rock-
hold and Will Wigent. When his
escape was discovered at an early
hour this morning the lock to the
cell had been opened without break
ing, indicating that he had been as
sisted gaining access to the corridor.
He had broken through a brick wall
where the water pipes enter the jail
room. The chips of brick indicated
that the work was done from the in
side, but no tools were left to show
how it was done.
Joe Parks, father of the murdered
girl, is active in the pursuit and that
particular neighborhood is aroused.
