:
Cattle-The amount of cattle on the
market this week exceeded that Of last
week by Sc eral hundred. The local
slaughterers and shippers were free buy
ers, but there was more beef on hand
than was actually needed, and in con-
sequence drovers who had 10 or more
head to offer. were obliged to take just
what butchers and shippers offered, and
as a result most of the cattle was held
over unsold- a'r
Calves-The supply of calves was more
than that of last week. but the demand
was good, and all arrivals were quickly
taken at about 6lsc.
Sheep and iambs-This supply was
smaller than that Of the previous week.
Good lambs sold for between and 61sc.

and escaped with only manned ankle.
He and his fireman were at once arrest
ed and placed under a squad of SOL

the soldiers for running so rapidly with
a special ahead of them.
All the horses of the officers, valua bic
animals, were killed. The forward
coaches of the military train were badly
shaken, but no injury was done any one
in them. The damage would have been
much greater had the train not been
made up in exactly the reverse of the
usual order. Ii it had gone out in reg

in the rear and the officers who occupied
them would have been killed instead of
the horses. The wounded, about IL in

Surgeon Wills, of the First battalion OF

MINNESOTA NEWS.
ElWin'S Volunteers.

People who witnessed company Of
100 men marching in military orders
through the mud and rain of the
streets of Minneapolis imagined that
an armed invasion of the city was
being made, but it developed that it
was only Capt. Elwin's company of
enthusiastic volunteers, marching
from their drill hall in the New York
Life Building to Gov. Coughs resi-
dence, to tender the governor their
services in body in case of another
call for volunteers. The governor was
taken by surprise, but evinced great
pleasure at the demonstration of SO
much patriotism. He invited the men
into his house, gave each one cordial
greeting, and assured them that they
would be the first company called up
on in case of another call for volun-
teers by the president. AS each men,
Der resides in the city the governor
said he would be notified within six
hours after an official call. He further
said that he was proud of the fact that

ment mustered into the service of the
United States, and the first to have a
regiment en- route.

A GREAT ! MAN GONE.
Close Of the Life of William Ewart
Gladstone. *
Death Comes Peacefully to the Fa-
NOUS Statesman in the Early Morn
ing Hours-A Sketch of His
Remarkable Career.

Hawarden, May 19.-William Ewart Glad
stone died this Thursday morning at five
o'clock.
Mr.: Gladstone had been unconscious prac
tlcally all day, though at times he seemed
10 recognize for moment some of the
watchers about him. Certainly he did rec
ognlze his wife, who was beside him all day
except when the physician prevailed upon
ner 10 rest. She tenderly clasped her hus-
oano's hand as she watched him. Appar-
entity ne slept good deal; occasionally he
uttered a few words in an incoherent,
Dreamy way, words which those who were
watching were unable to catch. Their only
consolation was that he was not suffering
pain. No narcotics were administered.
Enough national funeral will prob
ably be accepted by the family, there is
little doubt that the remains of Mr.. Glad
stone will be laid to rest in the peaceful
graveyard of Hawarden adjoining the
church where he was married more than
half century ago.
According to the description Of the ILL
ness given by DR.. Dobie, Mr.. Gladstone's
heart had been weaker and liable to fall
ure for the last IS months or two years.
MIR. Gladstone's Career.
The late Rt. Hon. William Ewart Glad

the late Sir John Gladstone, Bart, of

blowing down II barns, ten dwellings
and the Methodist and Christian
churches. The tornado travelled in a
northeasterly direction and passed just
north of Ivanhoe, where Capt. Joseph
E. Dupree was killed and his house
wrecked. At Clarksville a negro was
killed and II people injured. Many
horses and mules were killed. The
property damage in the Red river val
ley will reach 100000.
Kankakee, Ill.,, May 23.-The heaviest
rainfall for two years was experienced
in the Kankakee valley and adjacent
territory Saturday morning. 1t was in
the nature of waterspout. All the
territory between Kankakee and Bloom
ington is under water. The storm has
inflicted great damage to farmers, as
it will injure oats and retard corn plant
ing. Hardly one-third of the usual
acreage of corn has been planted so
far. The corn planted is rotting.
