For the six days the sup ply ot cattle has been approximately 32,260 head, or practically the same as for the week previous, and some 2,600 more than the corresponding week a year ago Bad weather and congested railroad conditions have been responsible for a very unsatisfactory trade during the greater part of th week. There was some demand early for choice heavy cattle and a too of 113.10 was registered. At no time, however, was there any particular demand for the common to fair light and medium weight steer and trend of values on these was lower from start to finish. Strictly choice beeves are quntably a little stronger than at the close of laat week, while the general run of cattle show declines ranging from 16c to 60c, and th sam I true as to cows and heifers. ' Blockers and feeders have not shown much change, as supplies have been limited and the demand slightly broader than last wsek. Light stockera, both steers and cows, ar still selling at very mean prices.

Continued liberal arrivals were In evl : dence this monlng, a total of 284 cars be I irig reported, of which 18 were of wheat, 215 ; of corn, 43 of oats, and 4 cars each of rye and barley. ' I All the coarse grains with the exception ! of corn were unusually strong. Cash corn was unchanged to around 3c lower, the bulk of it selling off. There was a continued brisk demand for thfs cereal, however, but buyers refused to meet the prices asked. The Nebraska State Railway commission announced that its recent preferential ; include corn containing 19 per cent or more moisture. This order becomes effective i January 28 and extends to March 2, and specifies that 80 per cent of the cars ap portioned regular shippers at points other than Omaha and Lincoln be loaded with corn containing 19 per cent or more mois ture.

Considerable of the oats sold of lat have gone to the government, from whom there Is a constant inquiry, especially of late and who are strong bidders for this cereal. Spot quotations today wer lie to 1c over those of yesterday, with fairly good local demand. Another new high record was set, the No. 1 whit selling at 84c No. I white sold at 8314c and 84c and the sam ple grade at 83a and 8314c Rye was strong, making an unusual ad vance of about 6c. Much of this cereal has been bought recently by millers who have paid big prices, the supply not meeting their demands. The No. 2 grade sold today at $2.05. Barley followed ry and brought a 2o premium over yesterday's 'sales, local buy ers absorbing these offerings readily. No. 1 barley sold at $1.60 and No. 2 barley at $1.47, while the feed and sample grades sold at $1.46 and $1.40, respectively.

With next Monday's enforced holiday In mind and the possibil ity of many happenings over that period, today's stock market session was little more than perfunctory. Foremost Industrials, Including the steels, coppers and shippings, were variable with equipments at the outset, but the list soon hardened on a resumption of yesterday's Inquiry for rails. Transcontinental, notably Union Pacific and Canadian Pacific, also Norfolk ft West ern and Rock Island Issues, registered ex treme advances of 1 to 2 points, low grade coalers also improving. Professional activity was again observed in speeialttesc such as Industrial Alcohol, General Motors, Studebaker and some of the miscellaneous Issues. Trading broadened be fore the close, minor war shares then coming forward. United States Steel sold over and under Its final quotation of the previous day, fin ishing at a small fractional gain. Others of the same class were slightly higher, but Mexicans reacted, Mexican Petroleum and American Smelting denoting pressure. Sales amounted to 240,000 shares. Noteworthy changes were shown by the bank statement, actual loans increasing about $"9,000,000, reserves of the members in the federal reserve bank expanding al most $31,000,000. with a gain of $29,000, 000 in excess reserves. The bond market was devoid of interest except for the low records made by Lib erty Issues. Th IHs fell to 97.94 and first 4s to 16.60, both new mlnlmums, while tne second 4s ranged between 96.30 snd 96.22. Total sales (par value) aggregated $2,285,000.

From Sur geon General Gorgas the senate mili tary committee today sought light upon health and sanitary conditions in the army, resuming its investiga tion suspended a few days ago to present the reorganization legislation about which' centers the committee row with the administration. General Gorgas reiterated state ments made in his official reports to the department after a tour of inspec tion that the crowding of men in the cantonments and camps not ready to receive them was largely responsible for the epidemics of disease which have raged at some of the posts. He agreed with other officers who have preceded him on the stand, however, as to the necessity for hurried train ing. "Wouldn't it have been better to have waited until the cantonments were ready?" asked Senator Freling huysen. ... "From a physical standpoint,' yes, the general replied, "but I think the k training of these men should not have been delayed." Hold Up Hospitals. Hospital construction was stopped last summer that barracks might be erected faster, he explained, and no camp hospital is complete now, though sanitation conditions are im proving as shown by recent mortal ity reports. General Gorgas empha sized the need for observation camps, " the establishment of which is being considered. He did not consider clothing shortages as an important factor in the pneumonia epidemic, ex plaining that control or avoidance of the germ was the principal point to be considered. f General Gorgas said that with the exception of Camp Funston, Kansas, all camps were admirably located from a sanitation standpoint. Fail to Get Ships. Senator Wadsworth suggested that lack of central power could be held largely responsible for overcrowding and inadequate clothing supplies. He said he had been informed that the War department expected to send the national guard to France beiore win ter, but had not co-operated with the shipping board to the extent of requisitioning tonnage to send it across. Questioned about hospital ships. General Gorgas said the question had been taken up by him seven or eight months ago and that he was expect ing a decision every day. He had been told it was decided that the navy should control these ships. It will take from two to three months, he said, to refit a transport so that it could be used for a hospital ship.
