KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS,
MAY 10, 1899. I
Owing to light receipts the first
days of the week the cattle market
ruled higher with Il good active de-
mand for>all light and medium weight
cattle that were well matured. Heavy
than they did last but the COMPETE
tion on that kind is not so good as it
is on other grades. 1t>takes prime
drove of heavy cattle to sell at So 10
while good fat steers weighing 1l5O To
1900 lbs. will sell at $3.50 10 80. Fat
dehorned Westerns weighing 1000 TO
100 lbs sell at S4.6O to 10.
The receipts Oi StOckerS and feeders
have not been aS heavy this week as
last and there is some reaction III
prices on that kind. Yard traders
were heavy losers on their holdings
last week. but after they had soid cut
by Saturday night they were GOOD
buyers Monday; and whites the attend
ance of country BUYERS has not been
especially heavy, the trade has ruled
active on ali well bred cattle of this
class.
There is an increased demand for
good fat cows and Ieifers, but re-
ceipts are very light.
We look for everything except the
best heavy cattle TO sell at present
prices and hope for some Improve
ment as the month advances.
We had moderate receipts of hogs
the fore part of this week and Il shaCe
better market. Some of the heaviest
packers are not very free buyers, es-
pecially on any little advance in
prices. We had less hogs last week
than the week before, and think this
weeks receipts will put up only "a
moderate supply. t still takes well
fatted good weight, good quality hoy s
to bring $3.50, and light hogs TO sell

ming well to barrows. 100 Id. pigs ana

A TRAGEDY.
A. E. Sigler Fires Three Shots
Into Mr.. Dingman a
Renter on His Farm.

Mr->Dinpman, a renter on the farm
of A. r.. SigIer, six miles southwest
of Wa-Keeney was shot and killed by
the latter Thursday afternoon
Mr. Dingman was man past mid
die age and recently from Illinois,
near Decatur, coming about two
months ago, he purchased of Mr.. Fat
man, who had contract of some kind
with Sigler, the interest of Tatman
in the Sigler ranch and moved in
about six weeks ago.
Thursday morning SIgler hlred
Henry Hiedlemann and j. V. Gass-
whit to go to the farm ostenSlbly to
break some colts and do other work
Before going to the farm he borrowed
"a revolver of Grant Marshall and Il
shotgun of Walter Gibson. Arriving
at the place about IL a. m. According
to the testimony of the two hired
men they worked about the place UNI
til near D. M, when seeing Dingman
coming they all went in ahead of him,
SIgler remaining outside to help put
up the team.
Words followed and there seemed
to be some dispute, but all entering
the house and finally being seated.
1t seems that Sigler ordered Ding
man off the place and drew his revol-
yer to enforce the order.
One witness says Dingman slapped
Sigler and tried to catch him by the
throat, catching the hand that held
the revolver at the same time, when
Sigler fired three shots. One taking
effect in the hand, one through til,
left breast, and having fallen, LhirC
through the the head ana neck.
The three went out and SigleI
mounted his horse and rode to town
to give himself up to the officers, tell
ing the men to stay there till som,
one came but not TO go into the house.
After two or three hours Corone.
Escher, Kinds Swiggett, Charlie Glib
son, Charlie McGrath and possibly
several others arrived. They met the
men some distance from the farm.
who returned after much persuasion
Going in they found Dingman sti.
breathing, but he crawled to another
part of the room in an evident AT
tempt TO reach the Water-pall.
We greatly oeplore that this TRACE
dy has occurred in our midst, bui
have tried to give the >iacts as they
were given to us.
MIR. Dingman was almost stranger
in the county, while Mr.. Sigler has
lived an honored citizen of the county
for twelve or fifteen years, and w,
sincerely hope that when the fulles,
light may be thrown upon the cas-,
that he Will be held to be in no blame.
Still let us in all justice sift the mat
ter thoroughly before rendering a de
ciSion.

A man named Isaac Nelson, an
employe of the Pine Tree company,
was arrested Friday morning on a
barge of assault, preferred by a
boy named Roy Green, who is also
at work at the mill. Nelson admit
ted striking the boy, but stated that
he done SO only after taking a great
am cunt of abuse from him in vile
names, slurs, etc. He warned Green,
he says, ON numerous occasions, to
desist, and tried in every way to
avoid him, but could not. Green
admitted using abusive language,
but thought his chastisement was
too severe. He said that he would
not have minded a good cutting or
slapping, but Nelson pounded, he
says, with his fists. Nelson was
fined ST. and costs, which he paid.
He intended to make a complaint
against the boy for using abusive
language, but he changed his mind,
no doubt thinking that the boys
punishment was sufficient to pre-
vent him interfering with him again.

J. C. lighthouse Friday shipped q
carload of cabbage to the Chicago
market, where they are quoted at
$14.50 per ton. He has been paying
an average of $50 per ton for them,
but the freight rate is 81 per ton,
leaving him a very small margin for
his labor and the risk Of running
into falling market. AS will be
seen the railroads get the bulk OF
the value of farm products for ship
ping them any distance. Mr.. High
house has also been in the potato
business, but says that the outlook
for shipping potatoes this fall is very
poor. At Chicago and st. Louis, the
two principle points Of the potato
market, quotations are but a few
cents above freight rates from here
to those points.
