thority Of the officers of such schemes.
Any person attempting to dispose OF

THEY FEED WHEAT

Whitaker Packing Houses Even, II
They Run at Full Capacity--Commis-
sion Men Posted--Light Supply of Pack
ing Hogs In This Territory.

There is evidently light supply OF
fat hogs and good beef cattle in the
country surrounding Wichita at the
present time.
The comission men at the Union stock
yards keep pretty well posted in re-
gard to what is in the country. They
see men from every section and when
stock men get together they usually
talk stock and the commission man
learns about what is in the territory
tributary to his market
Marsh Paugh said last night that
he was fully satisfied that there was a
light supply of packing hogs and beef
cattle in the territory from which
Wichita derives its supply. This he
ascribed to the light corn crop the past
two years.
Should Dold and Whitaker both run
at full capacity Mr.. Paugh thinks they
could get all the hogs they would want
because there has always been a great
many hogs that ought to come here
that have gone to other markets. The
farmers have fed a good deal Of wheat
but they do not feed so long on wheat
and the result is that a good many
light hogs are being marketed.
Experiments have demonstrated TO
the farmers that bushel of wheat will
make about eleven pounds of pork
which makes in round numbers 43
cents bushel for wheat when hogs
bring $3.50 a hundred pounds, or A
cents when hogs bring $500
The farmer who is able to hold wheat
will not sell at these prices nor will he
feed very much to hogs at present
prices. Then the conclusion is reached
that fat hogs will not be in large sup
ply in this market unless the market
sould advance sufficiently to induce
farmers to feed more wheat

in an almost disheveled mass down
her back. She wore no gloves, had no
orange blossoms and carried no brides

mony. The girl, who had remained sit

bridegroom. It was touching scene.

Paris Greatly Excited Over the Disclosures
Following the Arrest of Captain Dreyfus.

hands of agents of the triple ALI

be procured en- route. 1t is asserted that

the document would be found in the
precise place from which it had beer

said to have been aware that the Ger

plan of mobilization. For long time
the French military authorities were
puzzled, but eventually succeeded in
unraveling the mystery. 1t will be
quite another thing to prove who has
been guilty of these acts of high treason.
