IMHA.VAlf'LJS, October 12. Around 5,500 hogs arrived for the Friday market, a fair, but not largo, run and trading began with considerable difference between the buyers and sellers, the result being there was a reduction of at least 50c in the average for the rank and file of the hogs. Thert wa a fair local and outside demand, but not enough orders to exhaust the supply. Sales of hogs averaging lfto pounds up ranged from $1S.25(B19, and although there were several from $18.75 up the business was largely at fl8.25 18.50. 'CATTLE The run of 850 fresh cattle was fully as large as usual for Friday, but the supply seemed none too large to accommodate the demand, which apparently was more active than it has been for a day or two. Salesmen had little or no trouble in realizing strong prices for ali the offerings suitable for killers. Calves were mostly 25 lower and stockers and feeding cattle were quotubly steady.

NEWS STORIES AND GOSSIP FROM THE HOOSIER CAPITAL (Ay IS lrwHel A'eics ffcrvfoe.) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., October J2. Columbua day the anniversary of the i discovery of America ia being ob- j served throughout Indiana today. The day is a legal holiday, and Lieutenant Governor Bush, acting for Governor j Goodrich, hus officially proclaimed it and asked the people to observe it. j "Is this year of 1917," said Lieut Governor Push, "when A.merica " is ; playing a bigger part than ever before in maintaining and forwarding ! the rights of humanity, it is fittinir j and proper that we pause for a moment to contemplate the great significance of the discovery of a new world more than 400 years ago." The Knights of Columbus onler is making an especial observance of the day. A serious shortage of physicians in some parts of Indiana is threatened because of the demands on physicians for war services. Dr. Charles P. Emerson, chairman of the medical committee of the Council of Iiefense, reports that there is not a physician within fifteen miles of the town of Wheattands 4n J Jasper county. Indiana doctors have responded to the call, as Indiana boys have responded. Indiana's quota of physicians for the army is 572, and O0 have volunteered. Nearly 400 are now in service. The nation's quota is twentytwo thousand "Not until a patriotic spirit envelopes the production and distrihu. tion of coal in Indiana, will the present critical situation be solved." This is the way one man in semiofficial capacity today summed up the coal situation for the International N'ew-s Service. "The coal operator was called a 'Baron' a few weeks ago. the retail dealer was called a highwayman, and the puhlir assumed the role of the man robbed," he continued. "The coa! miner accepted the general belief that his employer was a thief, and accordingly went to work to get at the mmey he could out of him. We have no positive government control. Eveiy element is antagonistic. Father the government must completely take ever the production or this spirit n;c t he overcome. "The question of production and distribution has come to be just as important as the question of price. The best brains, the best effort of every agency is needed to solve the question. And we ai-e not getting them.' This official declared he held no brief for the coal operator, asserted i' was up to them and the miners t" increase production, lie neld no brief for the retailers, who, he says, mut share some blame. Put. he says, the point is not who is to blame, but what is the remedy. The "psychological situation" must be ehqnu'ed, he believes. Reports reach state ooitiuls L!;l much new capital is being put into coa mines in the bituminous fields by men who see money in the business at the government prices. Reports also have reacheil state officials that many operators are giving their output to big corporations that have had contracts nt higher than government rates. So. he says, the coal operator cannot evade blame. Reports hnve reached state agencies that many retailers are assuming a most arrogant attitude. Many demand money lefore coal is delivered, even before the order is taken. They favor the big consumers as against the small consumers. They surreptitiously sell coal for higher than government prices, some of the repot--" indicate. They do not put forth their best efforts to make an equitable distribution, so the retailers do not escape blame. The miners waited until the government prices were fixed before trying to force higher wages, and this after a twenty per cent Increase of a f-v months before. The miners say the cost of living has advanced so fast that an increase ia necessary. But they are, the " semi-official" said. hrtmprieg efforts to lower the cost of living by their own actions. They are disturbing the situation, creating dissatisfaction among workers, after the government had acted. So the miners do not avoid blame. intolerant in ita attitude, he says. The public may be right in what it thinks of the situation, but its attitude doea not encourage things. . See onr plush coat special for Satur day only, at $20.00. at Craig's.
