Kingman County Treats
Stock Markets to a Surprise
TRAIN LOAD CT CATTLE
From John Arlington 0verIaps
Seasons Reports.

One of the most important live stock
transactions in this part of the west oc-
! CURED yesterday afternoon at the Union
Stock Yards OF this city and the deal was
of sufficient importance to attract the at
tention of ali the foreign buyers assign
and the outside shippers present. This
transfer took place in the cattle division
Of the yards, and served the double pur-
pose of demonstrating that the Wichita
market is one OF the very best for all
kinds Of stock, and also that southwest
Kansas always upholds her own in this
branch Of the great agricultural industry.
This was a shipment from the large and
well known feeding ranch Of John Ar
rington of Kingman county and was COM
posed Of five heavily loaded cars of dress
ed beef, or export cattle, consigned 10 this
market and Immediately purchased by Mr..
W. II. Woods of the live stock commits
sion firm Of Godair, Harding & Co., of the
National Stock Yards of East st, Louis.
Mr.. Arlington IS one of the pioneer and
popular ranchmen of Kingman county
and noted for his careful feeding and
handling of cattle. This bunch was what
is known as long fed cattle, they hav-
ing been bought on light weight early last
fall, and winter fed in feed lots and
spring fed on soaked corn and pasture
grass. Ten months in all were used in
preparing this superb bunch for market,
and when ready they certainly presented
a fine lot of among the very best export
cattle ever received at these yards. They
were in every sense prime fancy, stock
and brought the fancy price Of cents
per pound, the top price at these yards
for this grade of cattle. There were in
all 112 head. aggregatng in weight 1884,
$40 pounds, and averaging the fine showing
of 1,2i9 pounds per head, with enough left
over to crowd 1,25O pounds. They were
yarded, fed and watered at the yards,
and late last evening shipped by Mr..
Woods, the buyer, TO st. Louis. This deal
following so close on the heels of the
immense cured meats shipment last week
Of the Dold Packing company to Europe
shows that both the live stock market of
Wichita and the big packing house at this
point sustain a position among the Wes-
tern receiving and slaughter points of
very high order. All live stock, Of any
grade received at this point finds a ready
and profitable market and southern and
western stockmen and shippers are now
more than ever realizing this very cogent
condition of affairs, as evidenced by this
very suggestive and important deal of
yesterday, and the immense cured meats
consignment abroad of the Jacob bold
Packing company of one week ago. Mr..
Arlington besides this big transfer, last
week sold 1000 feeders for delivery later.
All this proves conclusively that Wichita
is the logical and natural market for the
output of Kansas growing ranch and
stock interests and it proves that Kansas
leads the world.

CAN ANNUL CONTRACT
And a New One Made to Pay

The board Of county commissioners are
now considering the matter OF letting
Cunningham go ahead with his ferreting
out tax evaders and list enough property
to amount in taxes to the $500 agreed upon
by the commissioners as an optional limit.
While there is no particular dispute as
to the correctness Of County Attorney
Amidon's opinion that the contract Is He
gal, the commissioners say they do not
think It would be justice to Mr.. Cunning
ham TO have him do the work he has and
then, on a technicality. deprive him OF
any return They claim the right TO ap-
propriate money for the expense Of proper
administration in the county government,
and though the law says that certain
taxes shall be applied in certain specified
ways, they can pay Cunningham a salary
or fee to equal the amount agreed upon.
All that will be necessary is to cancel the
old contract, OF Stipulated division Of
tax returns, and signify fee Of the same
figure which the law Allows the commits
sioners TO do. The matter has not been
definitely decided upon yet. but this plan
IS contemplated. It has been decided.
