LIVE STOCK MARKETS.

CHICAGO, May i5.-There was a very
small supply OF cattle here today. The
offerings were not sufficient to fill the few
orders on hand and there was enough COM
petition to impart firmness to the market.
Receipts at western points yesterday and
today were comparatively light, indicating
moderate supplies for tomorrow and
Thursday That probably gave prices
slight upward tendency. There WAS no
extra steers on sale aud trading was gen
orally at So 90GS4 ID for steers and at 81 30
"a s.. 30 for cows and heifers.
The demand for hogs was anything but
brisk, but the meager proportions of the
supply made it easy for sellers to close out
st yesterdays prices; indeed the average
was trifie higher than for that date.
The best of the heavy hogs brought So 20,
and there was sales of light high as
S. IL. Between shippers and packers the
supply was soon absorbed and the market
maintained firm tone to the end. Heavy
hogs continue to sell 10 better advantage
than the light weight, sales showing diff
ference of ) to 10 cents per 100 pounds.
There was a strong market for sheep and
lambs. Ii Was so because of the light sup
ply, fresh receipts scarcely reaching 5000
head and the total for the last two days
being only about $4,000 head. or 800 less
than for the same time last week. There
was fair demand at 81 75G4 30 for poor to
choice clipped. The market for yearlings
was also stronger and from the same
cause. The range of quotations was $3.50
"a Spring lambs We're salabe at $500
4.60 per hundred pounds. The demand Is
low confined to shorn sheep. the warm
weather making wooded sheep almost I'M
salable.

WALL STREET TRANSACTIONS.
Sugar and Missouri Pacific Start De
cline throughout Entire List.

NEW YORK, May l5.-After an extremely
dull opening enlivened only by decline
by point or so in American Sugar refin-
ing stock, the share list developed weak
ness and prices declined in the entire list.
The knowledge that Mr.. Gould is about to
leave for Europe was utilized by the bears
to make sharp raid on Missouri Pacific
and the stock broke from 1925 to 26jS on
sales of only II, 602 shares. The break in
this stock, however, was sufficient to start
selling in other parts of the list and a
decline of from 1S to II per cent
eusued. Sugar fell off Is, to

on the report that stockholders would be-
assessed $50 per share under the re-organi-
cation instead of $40. as at first proposed.
The engagement of $500 900 In gold by Won
Hoffman & Co., for shipment to Europe,
and the talk of heavy exports by Satur-
days steamers led to free selling by the
room traders The troubles at the west
also had a depressing effect, although,
according to statements of officials of lead
ing lines the troubles will be speedily
adjusted. The market closed quiet at a
fractional recovery.

NEBRASKA CITY, Jan, 1S,-fSpecial Tele-
gram to The BEE. In the case of Hartwell
Baker, the boy who was shot on the Bur
lIngton bridge last night, it developed today
that there was a third party present when
the shooting occurred. Last night, Night
Watchman Dugan, in whose shanty the boy
was killed, said Baker placed the revolver
to his temple and pulled the trigger three
times before the weapon exploded Today
he says Mrs. A. Wier was present
at the time of the shooting, having
come to invite him to dinner and Baker was
fiourishing the revolver to frighten her, when
it exploded and killed him. The revolver
belongs to A. Wier. The shanty where the
shooting occurred is at the east end OF the
bridge, in Iowa The coroner of Fremont
county, Iowa, arrived in the city this after
noon, but declined to hold an inquest. 1t is
believed the shooting was accidental, but in
view of Dugans contradictory statements,
the inquest might have helped to clear the
