Chicago, Oct. 25- Representatives of live stock exchanges- of the United States at a conference here ' today appointed a committee to in vestigate and recommend means to prevent sudden fluctuations in the p-ice of meat animals. Everett C IJrown, president of the National Live Stock txchance, presided, and representatives were present from ' Paltimore, Cleveland, Cincinnati, . Denver, Detroit, Buffalo, Indianapo lis, Jacksonville. Milwaukee, Mont , pomery, Nashville, New York, New Orleans, Oklahoma City; Omaha, l'eoria, Pittsburgh, Portland, Sioux City, Sioux Falls, ' St. Joseph, St. Louis, St. 1 au! ana Wichita. "At a nieetinR here the principal live stock exchanges of the United States have authorized the appoint ment of a committee to work out some plan for more nearly stabiliz ing the markets," Mr. Brown an- nounced. "The problem is fundamentally one of better adjusting the supply" of live stock to the demand. Under the present system the number of meat animals received at the different markets varies by thousands from day to day and week to week. This tends to cause severe fluctuations up and down of the prices received for live stock. The committee appointed includes Mr. Brown. Thomas E. Wilson, C. H. Swift, F. E. White, James T. Agar, M. Grecnwald, F. Waddell, Emil Ingwersen, T. W. Jerrems and S. Bruce Stafford. Partial Eclipse of Moon Announced by Creighton Professor An eclipse of the moon Wednes day morning has been announced by Prof. William F. Rigge. of the Creighton University observatory. , "The moon enters ' penumbra at 5:24 a. m.," Professor 'Rigge said, "but is is only at 6:26, when it en ters shadow, that the real darkening will become perceptible. "Unfortunately for us in Omaha, the moon will set 22 minutes after that, at 6:48, so that only a little more than one third of its disc will be eclipsed. ' "For places much further west the eclipse will be total. To make mat , ters worse for us, the sun will rise at 6:49. one minute after the moon sets, so that eveu the little eclipse we can see at til will take place In the morning twilight and will oh that account be robbed of all its impres sivenesa , ' "Two weeks later on November 10, we shall have a similar small eclipse of the sun."
