Tlnl,imore Cattle Egar!sct.
THURSDAY, August Il, 1913.

BEEF CATTLE.-The market this
week opened with some little activity,
showing about &c advance, but before
the close became slow. and receded to
last weeks rates; in the opinion OF
some of the dealers even below that.
There were net as many cattle on the
market as last week by between four
and five hundred, and the proportion
of cool ones WAS also less; stockers
and medium butchers cattle predomI-
mating.
Prices to-day for beef cattle ranged
as follows: Best beeves at S. 5000 10;
that generally rated first quallt!S %
as SO; medium or good fair quality
ST OOG4 SO; ordinary thin steers,
oxen and COWS IS 25@4 90; inferior
ard lowest grades OF cattle 0 OO0O %
general average of the market to-day
s. 90; extreme range Of prices IS 20
GG IS. Most Of the sales were from
81 80 to 5 so per 100 lbs. OF the
receipts j52 head came from Ohio, u
from Maryland, ZIG from Virginia, 3OI
from West Virginia and so from Dis
tr;ct OF Coiumbis-total receipts for
week ll26 head, against 1909 last week,
and - head same time last year. OF
the offerings, S95 head were taken by
Baltimore butchers, 81 head sold to
Washington city dealers, 80 to
York county, Pa, dealers, and
$50 head to eastern spectators total
sales for the week 1925 head, against
1850 last week, and - head same
time last year.
SHEEP AND LAMBS-The cor
siderable falling off in the receipts OF
sheep this week has had tendency to
liven up the market and 80 advance OF
&c per pound may be noted on good, fat
sheep; stockers also appear to have an
upward tendency. The supply OF lambs
is fully equal to the demand. We now
quote sheep at 4!96 cents per 10. gross.
stock Sheep are in demand at - 300
5 - per head. Lambs dull at 5o9
5 - per head. Receipts this week
1898 head, against 600 last week
and - head same time last year.
Notwithstanding the consld-
cradle increase in the receipts this week
nrices have been maintained, with q
ta;r prospect OF q continuance Of press
ont rates unless heavier arrivals should
come, which at present is not antlclpat'
ed. Light smooth hogs continue in
hest demand at our highest quotations
viz: 81 25@7 so per 100 lbs net: Receipt;
this week 1922 head, against 1908 las

We would feel bad if we should hap
pen to find ourselves in Cadiz, some
time, tired, hungry and footsore, and
the hotel keepers would refuse to en-
tertain US, therefore we beg the pardon
of the Republican, and decline further
controversy on so small a subject as the
name of hotel, especially when 1t is
none of our business whether 1t
is named Delmohico, Grand Central,
Girard or Central. We are certain that
friend Haverfeld the new proprietor
of the Cadiz House will entertain the
travelling public in satisfactory man
ner. He is suave, affable and agree
able gentleman, being a gasnonomist
himself, he understands how to cater
to the tastes of others. We wish him
success.

FrrE AND Loss OF LIFE.-A de-
lstruc;ive fire broke out in Barnesville,
on Monday morning, about one O'Clock,
destroying the BisnIark FIGURING Mill,
corner Chestnut and South Streets, and
the residence adjoining belonging to
Messrs. Letkie and Shultz. When the
fire was first discovered it was in the
second story of the building; but owing
to the combustible nature OF the struct-
ure the flames communicated rapidly
to the entire building. The Engine
and Hook and Ladder Companies
were soon at the scene of the fire, and
rendered valuable assistance in saving
the entire row of houses Immediately
adjoining the mill, which, but for
their timely and well. directed battle
with the flames could not have escaped.
The charred remains of the body OF a
man supposed to be James Mid eton,
the engineer, was found in an upright
position in the cistern belonging to the
mill. There was an outside room at
tached, but not communicating di-
rectly with the mill, which was reach
ed by a stairway from the outside, in
which the engineer was in the habit of
sleeping; directly under this room is
the cistern where the body was found.
1t was ascertained that the engineer
was i'm this room at eleven o'clock at
night in somewhat intoxicated con-
dition; it is supposed that the body
fell to the cistern after the floor had
gave way. The body was horribly
mutilated; the head and the fore-arms
were burned entirely..of and no marks
remained by which the body could be-
wholly identified. Loss on the build
ings is estimated at ten Thousand dol
lars which is partially covered by in
surance. There was also a consider
adle quantity of grain in the mill. The
fire was evidently the work of an in
cendiary, as there had been no fire in
or about the building on the previous
day.
