Northwestern Statistics.
Dally telegraphic reports to the Bureau
of Markets from railroads in the United
States show 137,953 cars of cattle and calves,
hogs, sheep, horses and mules and mixed
stock -loaded In the various states during
August, 1918. A comparison of the total
loadings of July and August show an In
crease of 2221 cars during August, or L6
per cent. Including mixed stock and horses
and mules, total shipments In August were
2182 cars from Oregon, 804 cars from Wash
ington and 3369 cars from Idaho.
The loadings of cars of cattle, hogs and
sheep in the, three states were:

For the country as a whole, cattle ship
ments increased 9.6 per cent, hogs decreased
-1.2 per cent, sheep Increased 44-6 per cent,
horses and mules Increased 40.2 per cent
and mixed stock decreased 18.9 per cent.
Missouri took first place from Texas In
loadings of cattle and calves with an in
crease of 1320 cars over the number loaded
in July, Texas loadings showing; a decrease
of 163 cara Nebraska and Kansas, with
third and fourth places, had Increases of
S229 ears, or 76.4 per cent, and 2225 cara.
or 40.4 per cent, respectively. Iowa con
tinued to hold first place in loadings of
hogs, but had 8535 less decks than in July
Nebraska supplanted Illinois In second place
the latter state dropping off 1805 decks and
the former only 472. Nebraska's sheep load
ings Increased 158.9 per cent. Idaho's 50.?
per cent and California's 56.2 per cent.
Illinois and Texas were first and second in
loadings of horses -and mules, both state,
having Increased. y
In the Portland market yesterday hogs
were firmer than on the preceding day and
the top quotation was put back to $19.50.
Cattle and sheep were fairly steady.
Receipts for the day we re, J 17 cattle, 9
calves, 442 hogs and 100 sheep. Shippers
were:
With hogsJohn Ogburn, Cottonwood,
CsX, 1 load; D. J. Balsley, Independence, 1
load; 8. D. Dalle, Albany, 1 load.

hogs and sheep; C. S. Lucke, Canby, 1 load
cattle, hogs and sheep.
The days sales were as follows:
authorized close control over call 'and time
loans of its members.
Prior to that deseiopment the market bore
surface signs of a continuance of the pre
vious week's advance. Gains of two to six
points soon crumbled away, however, reduc
ing many leaders to their levels of the pre
vious fortnight.
Conservative Wall street realizes that
drastic action Is necessary If the financial,
commercial and Industrial Interests of the
country are to retain their present unassail
able position. Advices from every section
stress the increasing curtailment of loans,
save for absolute essentials.
News from abroad was the most Influen
tial factor next to the monetary situation,
the disorderly retreat of the German forces
finding unmistakable response, not only in
the strength of domestic Issues, but in for
eign war flotations and rates of exchange to
this country's allies.
There waa a further weakening of ex
change on the northern European capitals,
v here latest political developments, as
.viewed by international bankers, inclined
more favorably to the cause of the entente
powers. j

Larger Use of Barley as Feed la Con
sidered Probable, Owing to Regn
lations Prohibiting Brewing.
Advance in Oats Recorded.
CHICAGO, Sept T. Prohibition of ' the
manufacture of beer beginning December
had a decreasing influence today on the
corn market. Largely aa a result prices
closed unsettled c to lc net lower, with
October 31.57 1.57 and November
1. 56 1.50. Oats finished e to o off
and provision varying from 10c decline to
25o advance.
An opinion became widespread that barley,
when no longer taken by brewers, would be
chiefly consumed as feed. Accordingly, mod
erate price upturns in com. which hsd re
sulted from week-end evening up of trades
ana from lightness of receipts, were more
than counterbalanced.
Oats were governed almost entirely by
corn.
Covering by shorts rallied pork from
severe decline caused by a lack of support.
Higher quotations on hogs helped
strengthen lard and ribs.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
