Green Onions for the msrket-It is
not anything and everything in this
line that sells. All people do not use
onions, and those that do are particular.
Very small green onions do not sell.
neither do very large, coarse, strong
onions. 1t is only medium size, young
and tender onions that are wanted. The
onion part should be clean and white,
ith the llrst outer coating carefully
removed. The tops should remain on
unless trimmed few inches from the
top, so as TO have them look nice, any
thing to give them good appearance.
They should be carefully tied In buneh h
es OF four or five onions in u bunch.
Boxes OF one bushel-same size as "a.
quart berry case-is about the best
package to use, for when In large pack
ages they may become heated. This
package is also easy to handle.

Cattle Scarce On The Range.

A report from South Dakota says:
Parties representing Omaha, Sioux City
and Chicago packers and live stock deal
ers are making inquiries as to the num-
Der Of fat cattle on ranges along the
Missouri river and on the Sioux reser-
walton. The drouth last season spoiled
much pasture and generally lessened the
supply of beef cattle. AS consequence
early spring shipments fell far below
what was anticipated. Ranchmen are
marketing the better grades, but the
supply is limited as compared with for
mer years, and unless pasturage is un-
usually good the demand will greatly
exceed the supply. This means an ad-
vance In the price OF beef cattle until
September at least: possibly until the

of cattle pass here from western ranches
daily, while at this time in former years

The Supply of Cattle.

1t will take five years al least to work
the cattle supply up to where there will
be overproductioR. In the meantime
values will be high and when the sup
ply exceeds the demand, with resultant
lower values, the csttleman who always
succeeds, will have sold cut to barely q
remnant This history Of production
Of all the commodities Is one and the
same. When either from overproduc-
tion or undeproduction, the amount
produced was more than the CONNER
cial or natural demand, values have
gone down and the increased accumu-
latlons have been sacrificed in order
that other brshches OF industry could
be pursued, but as rule where this
changing policy has been followed little

GIGANTIC FORGERY SCHEME.
Salt Lake Business Men Said to Be
Among the Victims.

Among the Victims.
Butte, Mont, July ESPECIAL to Trib-
une.-The preliminary trial of II. A.
Sloan and William Mcmahon TODAY
developed a gigantic forgery scheme
affecting bankers and merchants in
States. The two men We're arrested
several weeks ago when they presented
themselves at the First National Bank
and tried to collect $50 on contract
for an advertisement in a publication
called Laird's Industrial Gazetteer. The
bank at once declared the signature to
the contract a forgery, and after the
arrest hundreds of similar contracts
wore found on the men bearing the
signatures Of different merchants and
mining companies. Some of the sigma
lures were so well executed that their
owners could not dispute them.
At the trial to-day a copy of the al
legged Gazetteer was produced and
found to be an old book with new in
troductory leaves pasted in The ad-
vertisements on which collections were
attempted to be made were also pasted
in the same manner. The address of
the publishing house is given as 81 to
SO Gold street, New York How the
men obtained the signatures of the
merchants is unknown. They have
advertisements of firms in Chicago. ST.
Louis, Denver, Omaha, Salt Lake. Spo-
kane, San Francisco, Helena and many
other cities, and estimated to represent
over $4,000. When the men were first
arrested a telegram was received from
some party in New York, signing the
Laird Company, stating the men were
all right, and that the company was
responsible. Since then nothing has
been heard from the party.

wounds in the head, will recover.

Samuel Stone, shot in the right leg,
will recover.
McGloin was alone in his saloon,
when Cole entered and asked the sa-
loon keeper to get him some meat that
he claimed to have left in the ice box
of the saloon. McGloin walked to the
entrance of the ice box and Cole draw
ing a revolver ordered him to go in
side and stay there.
McGloin truned and struck the rob-
Der in the face, nearly knocking him
down. The two men then clinched and
fought desperately. Cole managed to
get one arm free, and with his revolver
he bounded the saloon keeper viciously,
inhicting three wounds on the head.
The robber then broke loose from Nc
Gloin and ran down the street, Nc
Gloin following. He boarded a State
street car McGloin was till close upon
him. and Cole seeing that he could not
shake off his pursuer ran through the
car.
Several citizens had by this time

one block to Jackson street, Cole fired
q shot into the crowd, which failed to
hit any one The flight and pursuit
then turned toward Wabash avenue
and south upon that street. Rosenthal
and II. Dayo joined in the chase, and
as Cole was badly winded by this time
they rapidly came up with him. Half
way between Van Buren, street ana

upon his man and ordered him to sur
render Cole replied with a shot, and

Just before reaching the corner Of
Congress street, the officer fired at the
fugitive, who returned the compliment
The bullet of the officer wnt wild, but
that of Cole brought down Stone, an
other pursuer, with ball through the
leg. Rosenthal fired second time, and
this time Cole staggered. He contin-
ued to run, however, turned the cor
ner and ran east on Congress street
until he was directly in front of the
entrance to the great Auditorium thea

minutes without saying word. The

was appointed by the president, Hon. j.
Taylor Ellyson, to formulate pro-
gramme for the celebration of the one
hundredth anniversary of the birth of
George Peabody by the school children
OF the city, on February IS, 1895.
This committee. consisting of Superin
tendent Fox. Principals Thomas, Pace

general way a plan for the celebration
of the anniversary in the public schools
of this city. \ subcommittee was APP
pointed TO prepare the programme In de-
tail.
In this city exercises suitable to the
occasion will be held in all the schools,
and later in the day a public celebration
will be held at some suitable place, when
brief addresses will be delivered by
speakers yet 10 be named and other APP
propriate exercises will follow.
1t was also suggested at this meet
ing that an organized effort be set on
foot to establish a permanent Peabody
Memorial Association, with the object
OF making penny collections from the
public school children OF Virginia and the
South for the purpose Of erecting at
Washington lasting memorial, a bronze
statue. Of the great benefactor of the
South-a tribute OF the school children
to the memory of George Peabody 1t is

inaugurated in Richmond, for. as Dr.
