Cattle The wee opens out with a mod
erate run of cattle, about 8.400 head, as
agalnta 6,626 head a week ago. Demand
from all sources w:s rather broad, and
especially for desirable light handy weight
steers. These sold freely at steady to some
what stronger prices, while the call for the
good heavy rattle was somewhat restricted
and trade was slow wlih prices much the
same ss last week. Cows and heifers were In
very fslr supply, but demand for sll grades
was active and values quotahly fully ateady
all around. In stockers and feeders supplies
were limited, and with a keen Inquiry from
both yard traders and country buyers busi
ness wns lively and prices somewhat
stronger for anything at all useful, Colorado
pulpers brought $11.76.

Sheep Sheep and lamb receipts were
more liberal for a Monday than they have
been In some time. Trad was dull In both
lambs and sheep and the undertone was
wesk, with prospects of lower prices all
around. A few handy weight Mexican lambs
sold early at 316.60, and showed but little
decline under Friday. Other kinds of the
sams class, however, were slow In moving
and are due for a decline of from 1015c.
Good ewes at $11.25 looked fully 25c under
last week. Choice 74-pound yearlings bring
ing $14.30 were also lower. Fat bucks
brought 16.006 8.50. There was no life to
feeders and the undertone was wesk. Heavy
lambs were draggy and looked like they
would sell around $15.0015.75.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Corn Averages Higher Owing to Accumu
lation of Reserve Storks,
Chicago, III., Feb, 18. Corn averaged
higher today owing more or less to efforts
to accumulste reserve stocks here before
farmers become busy with field work. The
close, however, was unsettled. Much
$1.27 snd May $1.26. with the final
range c off to a like advance compared
with Saturday's latest figures. Oats
gained c to 0o net. The outcome
in provisions varied from 17c decline to a
rise of 7 cents.
Despite big Increase of arrivals, the corn
markut pointed upward throughout nearly
the entire session. It was realized that
but a short time remains until spring
work by producers might sharply restrict
tbs crop movement. Predictions of stormy
weather within the next 36 hours empha
sized bullish sentiment, and so too did the
fact that as high as $2 a bushel had been
paid for extra good white corn suitable
for milling. Near the end of the day.
though, prices tended somewhat to relax
owing to assertions that 100. 000 cars had
been concentrated in the middle wsst and
that a dally movement of 4.000,000 to ,
000,000 bushels wss on.
Oats ascended to new top records for
the season. Urgent bidding from the west
was chiefly responsible.
A bulge In hog prices gave strength to
provisions. Subsequently, realising sale
brought about a setback.

disclosed in the present instance which
warrant such an upheaval.
The Times remarks that the pre- ,
mier's recent speech in the House of

I been a storm of exaggeration and pv
jliiical intrigue over what seeing fa
have been a most natural and common

I Robertson WV.s Dismissed?
News of General Robertson's re'
, moval, the Morning l'ost says, will
I be received with consternation by the1
public and the army. It eulogizes,
j Generat Robertson, not' only as the
', greatest Uritish soldier of his day, but
as the highest miiitarv genius the
war thus tar has produced.
Declaring that it is evident that
General Robertson has been dismissed
aud that those who dismissed him find
it inconvenient to confess the truth
the Post says that Parliament will
I insist on know ing why the diotin-
miished soldier is treated sn Krurvilvi
It continues:
"If the summary dismissal of Gen-,
eral Robertson were not enough to
shatter our confidence in Premier
Lloyd George and the government
the circumstances of the dismissal
would do it.
"The need of the hour is a pre
mier who, while knowing where to
forebear interference with what he
does not understand,' will know also
Jiow to throw his whole weight into
the prosecution of the war," s '
James W. Lowther, the speaker of
the House of Commons, and General
Jan C. Smut are mentioned by the
Post as the type of men fitted to head
the government.
Stefansson Failed to, Navigate
The Northe?st Passage
Seattle. Feb. 18. Captain Alexander
Allan, an Arctic trader, has arrived
ere from the north with word that
Vilhjalmur Stefansson, an explorer
now in the Arctic, failed to realize
his hope of navigating the northeast
passage to the Atlantic because two
members of his party disobeyed or
ders and left their chief marooned on
Melville island in 1916 without a ship.
The two, Captain Gonzales and
Mate Seymour of the Schooner Mary
Sachs, one of Stefansson's fleet, were
instructed in 1V14 to take the Sachs
in 1916 to Stefansson's base on Mel
ville island.
Instead, Captain Allan asserted,
they cut a hole in the Sachs and,
beached it at Banks Land, about
SOO miles west of Melville island, m ,
When Stefansson found he was
marooned he abandoned his plans to
go east and made the trip to Banks
Land on foot over the ice. From
Melville island to the Atlantic navi
gation is comparatively easy, Captain
Allan said.,
Stefansson, Captain Allan declared
and the members of his Canadian
Arctic expedition are wintering at
Barter island, off the Alaskan Arctic
coast. The explorer expects to make
a 100-mile trip north over the ice
this coming summer and return to
civilization next fall by way of Nome,
Alaska.
