There is an old saying that plenty Of
corn means plenty Of hogs, aud it has
been verified this year Tor while the
cor. crop was reduced somewhat from
the yield of 1895 aud 1896. there is an
abundAnee OF old corn in the hands Of
farmers in many portions Of the west
which is being fed to hogs.
At Kansas City alone since January
the receipts Of hogs have been 3 2s7,
459, an increase of 733, SOS over the
same time last year, or 2s.7 per cent
The Increased supplies OF hogs, strange
70 say, have not caused u lover range
Of prices than last year, but, on the
contrary, as was the case last week,
the prices paid this year are a tribe
higher The demand fro N the pack srs
has been active, tue Increased killings
by western packers since Novembe 1
having been 73O 600 There is a rea-
son for the active demand from the
packers and also for the maintenance
OF prices, and IL IS a reason which
western farmers should consider. That
reason Is the increased demaod tor hog
products for export, which, as has been
the case with wheat has helped
the farmers. II IS not SO much the
home demand ss the foreign demand
which has sustained the markets for
hogs 10 the face OF such heavy sup

cause OF the recent trouble with the
Seminole Indians:

created by the assault and murder Of
Mrs. Julia Leard near Maud postoflice
by Indians and the subsequent lynch

correspondent secured from an eye

hiding in the woods. Tho crowd OF
indignant neigh bors who had insti.

time restoring him to life, but he still
protested his Innocence. The children
OF the murdered woman could not rec

toward one Taylor, negro Indian,
and upon investigation it was discov-
cred that Taylo had fed the country.
The crowd followed his trail and found
him in the Creek nation with his wife,
locked up In an outhouse Of an old
Indian house. He was brought back
TO the house where Leard lived and
was recognized by the boy 81 the man
who came into the house He at once
confessed his guilt and implicated Lin
coin McGeeskey. The neighbo took
the prisoners to an old arbor near the
home OF the Leards and held prayer
for the prisoners. The Indians who
had gathered about we're then called
up and they then hell prayer

made written confession in
which they admitted that after dark
on the evening OF the murder Taylor
went into the house where Mrs. Leard
and her small children were alone and

gun hanging on the wall ann the woman
fled from the house carrying the baby
in her arms and that McGeeskey WIS

his hands and struck the woman on

in his confession, says thereupon he ana
McGeeskey raped her twice while she
was in that condition and that he took

Geeskey denied that he attempted

that he killed her.
After the outrage they retired to n

There has been no uprising of the

exports OF hog products amounted

when farm products are in excessive

slaughtered by packers was invariably
