HOGS AT YARDS EXCEED SUPPLY OF STOCK GARS Glen Miller Market Holds Three Loads Over From Saturday Joe Meyers Receives $1,200 For Pigs.

The top prices on hogs were $6 for heavies and $6.50 for light Joe Meyers delivered 88 head of June pigs that averaged 210 pounds, just the kind the market is demanding. They brought $1,200. Harry J.

WHEAT HITS $1.56 ON GENERAL JUMP Bull Sentiment Prevails and Bears Unable to Stem High Tide. CHICAGO, Feb. 1. May wheat closed at $1.66. a gain of 4c over Saturday and within c of the top price today. July, closing at $1.37, was c under the high and3c over final figures last week. Bull sentiment ran rampant in the final hour of trading and nobody would listen to bear reports. Every other wheat market in the country advanced from 3 to 7 cents, the most of them showing net gains of 5 cents. Fairly heavy sales of cash grain at $1.58 was the prime factor in the advance. Com started up with wheat, but an enormous amount of profit taking kept the close for both months within c of Saturday's final figures. The close was: May 82 and July 84. There was a very large trade in cats; May at 61, closed c lower, and July at 58, was c above Saturday.

BEOK RECEIVES EMITUS TITLE AFTERQUITTING Congregation of Trinity Lutheran Church Refuses to Allow Pastor Completely to Sever Connections.

f THnftv Lutheran f-. - church, relinquished active charge of the congregation, and was at once called as pastor emeritus. The congregation would not accept a resignation of the Rev. Mr- Beck and asked him to retain a passive leadership. Until a pastor is called to -take active charge of the congregation, a temporary supply, probably a divinity student from Capital university, will occupy the pulpit. Steps In. this dtrec.vi were taken today by George Deuker. secretary of the parish. Beck Organizes. Church. Trinity church was organized by the Rev. Mr. Beck, who came here from Columbus, O., where he served a large Lutheran congregation. Un der his administration the congrcgajtion grew to its present proportions. jThe Rev. Mr. Beck has been highly honored by the church body with ; which he is connected. For many i years he was a member of the home I mission board and also served on the publication board and other bodies. For the last year, the Rev. Mr. Beck has been in failing health. Frequent attempt to make the congregation accept his resignation were frustrated by the members who insisted that the pastor retain his post. Members have an abiding love and regard for the aged leader of the congregation, and his efforts yesterday to resign were defeated when the congregation, out of respect for his ability and faithfulness, named him pastor emeritus. thus assuring his guidance in congregational affairs. Whenever the Rev. Mr. Beck feels strong enough to assist in congregational work, he will have the privilege of so doing. the afternoon will be Peru and will be given by Mrs. Cora Rush and Mrs. Phariba W. Stephens. The discussion will be: "Housing Problem of Our City." Miss Loretta Conklin has returned to Winchester after a pleasant visit with Miss Gladys Bailey of South Seventeenth street. Mr. and Mrs. John Sligar will be host and hostess for a meeting of a Monday card club next week at their home on South Twenty-first street.
