Cattle There was another liberal run
of 600 cars of cattle or 13,000 head here
today. Trading on beef steer was slow
and steady to 15c to 25c lower. On the
early round packers bought a few of the
good to choice corn feds paying up to
$17.00 for choice kinds. Western beeves
were slow and draggy with nothing
choice available. The general trend of
prices all along the line was lower and
especially on medium and common steers
which were selling at the full decline.
Caners and cutters sold steady at $5.25f
7.75, but outside of a few fat cows
butcher stock was weak to 25c lower.
Best feeders were strong and others dull
and lower.

Chicago Grain and Provision.
Chicago. III.. Dec. 10. Unfavorable
weather put the bear In corn at a gen
eral disadvantage today. Nevertheless,
prices closed unsettled, c off to lHc net
higher, with January $1.31 to $1.81,
and May $1.30. Oats finished Vto down
to a like advance. In provisions, theTe
were gains of 10c to 55c.
Dampness and mild temperature pre
vailing over much of the corn belt in
spired many recent sellers with a wish to
get away from risks that would have to
be met If the crop movement should be
seriously delayed or curtailed. Covering
that ensued on the part of shorts brought
about a material advance In values, for of
ferings were Bcarce until bidders had com
peted with a good deal of spirit. After the
bulge, however, realizing by holders set in
and attention centered on the fact that
arrivals here were on a more liberal scale
than had appeared likely. Relative weak
ness followed and at the last nearly all
gains had been wiped out.
Continued demand from the seaboard
together with good domestic Inquiry gave
steadiness to oats. Selling pressure was
mainly on distant futures.
Food administration measures to stabil
ize hog quotations tended to strengthen
provisions. Besides shipment of meat
and lard remained far In excess of the
totals a year ago.
Chicago closing price, furnished The
Bee by Logan & Bryan stock and grain
brokers, 315 South Sixteenth street, Oma-
New York, Dec. 10. Predicated largely
on the sanguine view of the chairman
or tne united States Steel corporation
respecting future Industrial conditions,
stocks today opened with a firm under
tone, gathering greater trength and
breadth as the session progressed.
United States Steel and Standard rails
were almost the only exception until the
final hour, when heavy buying of steel
and transcontinental Infused a defree of
ouoyancy to the general list.
Outstanding features, however, embraced
the better known equipment, including
tormer war Issues, motor and shippings,
together with numerous specialties, mainly
of the peace variety, at gross gain of 2
to 8 points.
The backwardness of United States Steel
was attributed in a measure to the pub
lication of November tonnage following
showing a decrease of about 230,000 tons
In unfilled orders.
Oils were unsettled at time because of
the reported rupture of relations between
American concessionaires and the Mexi
can government, but Mexican Petroleum
regained its loss, kindred share record
ing variable gains.

FORMER UMPIRE
MADE NATIONAL
LEAGUES HEAD
Secretary-Treasurer Heydler
Elected President for Three
Year Term; Three Of
fices Combined.
New York, Dec. 10. John A. Hey
dler was unanimously elected presi
dent, secretary and treasurer of the
National league at its annual meet
ing here tonight for a term of three
years. The three offices are com
bined for the first time since 1907.
Mr. Heydler had been acting presi.
dent since the resignation of John
K. Tener last summer. He had acted
as president once previously, after
the death of President Pulliam in
1909 until his successor, Thomas J.
Lynch, was elected. He is thor
oughly conversant with every detail
of the national game, having been
connected with the National league
office for the past 15 years.
Mr. Heydler's first professonal
experience in base ball was as a
National league umpire' in 1898
when double umpire system was
established. Prior to that he was a
writer on Sporting Life, and the
Washington Star, and subsequently
he was sporting editor of the Wash
ington Post. In 1902, at the request
of President Pulliam, he compiled
the National league averages for
that season and he became the
president's private secretary in 1903
In 1907, when the office of president-secretary-treasurer
of the Na
tional league was split, Mr. Hey
dler was appointed secretary, a post
tion he has filled ever since.
Prior to the election of President
Heydler, two other names were in
formally discussed but neither was
put in nomination. These were
John C. Toole, a lawyer of this city,
who for years has been the legal
adviser of some of the league mem
bers, and David Brown, a news
paper man of Louisville, Ky.
The rules were changed so that
in the future the board of directors
will consist of four members and
the president ex-officio, who will
have a vote in case of a tie. Messers
Herrmann, Cincinnati; Ebbets,
Brooklyn; Baker, Philadelphia, and
Hempstead, New York, were elected
directors for the ensuing year.

New York Coffee.
New York, Dec. 10. No fresh develop
ment was reported In connnectlon with the
possible reopening of the coffee futures
market today. The impression appeared
to be that the boad of manager of the
exchange was waiting for further com
munication from Washington before
making any further move in that con
nection. Meanwhile no change wa re
ported In the local spot situation, which
remained entirely nominal so far as firm
quotations were concerned, although it I
said prices are tending toward a closer
parity with Brazil. The official cable
showed an advance of 25 rel in the Rio
market. Santos spots were not quoted
and future were unchanged to 100 rels
lower. Receipts at the two Brasllian
porta were 48,000 bags and Jundlahy re
ceipts 24,000. Later cable reported a
further decline of 60 to 100 rels In Santo
futures. Offers of Santo. 4 reported In
the cost and freight market ranged from
