WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.

CATTLE-The range of prices on fat
cattle has not been great enough to
change our quotations. There have been
two loads here this week that were good
enough to bring five cents, some others
selling as high as $780, But most of the
sales have been from $4.20 to $3.50 for
pretty fair killing steers.
The market on stockers has been a
shade higher all week, and for the past
two days prices have been paid for this
class of stuff that shippers should not
depend on, as there were not many cat
tie coming. The run has been very light
with a good many buyers on the market
so that we have been able to get what
we would call long prices for all classes
of stock cattle, even the poor ones find
ing a ready sale. While we would not
advise our customers to depend on a mar
ket of this kind, we will say that we
think we will have good, strong mar
ket the coming week for anything desira-
BILE, and especially on light steer calves
yearl1ngs and heifers.
HOGS-Receipts so far this week, 1855.
as as oo compared withs s 49l last week and i
1882 for corresponding two weeks last
year. The quality as rule has been
good, and statesmen have had no trouble
in maintaining prices. this market being
cases ca us 81 IS this true in
gard to light and light mixed hogs.
Packers are not getting nearly as many
hogs as they want: and we look for Tor.
good steady market for the next thirty
days.
Hogs are selling here today at $500
$50, with the rough packers and pigs
out; packers selling at $330Q3. 40; pigs at
| $S.20Q3.35
| Shippers should be careful about buy
/ ing rough sows, stays and 100 to 13O-lb
| pigs, especially rough sows, as the. pack
! ers do not care for them.
| SHEEP-The sheep market has not
changed materially in the last week. re-
ceipts being very light and the prices
| strong demand exceeding the supply.
We do not look for any great change in
| tho near future.

LACKED COURAGE.
Crushing Humiliation for Seventy
First New York Officers.

First New York Officers.
ALBANY, N. Y, April 2O.-A hearing
OH the report of the court which inves-
tigated the conduct of the Seventy first
regiment, of New York, at Santiago was
given by Gov. Roosevelt today.
The hearing developed the fact that
the court of inquiry found that Maj.
Smith, who was lieutenant colonel of the
volunteer regiment; Capt. Whittle who
was major in that command, and Maj.
Austin. of the staff of Brig. Gen. Smith,
and who commanded a company in that
regiment, were guilty of lack of bravery
and courage, and of incompetency.
The hearing, which was in the form of
q general discussion, continued for nearly
three hours, and at it's conclusion the
governor announced that, while he had
made up his mind definitely what he
should do, still it was most likely that
he would submit the case of Capt Whittle
to a military court to determine his COM
potency and fitness to remain as an Of
ficer of the national guard of the state:
that he was undecided what should tie
done in the case of Maj. Smith, because
his duties as lieutenant colonel are a,
matter of future decision, and that he
would severely reprimand Maj Austin in
q general national guard order.

Plans agreed upon for the reorganiza-
ton of the Wisconsin Central road have
baen officially promulgated. The road is
S27 Geo is to be in fifty-year per cent
gold bonds, $12, 2,500.O00 in per cent non
cumulative preferred stock and $li,5ooVoO
in common stock. OF the old securities
the first mortgage bonds are to receive
60 per cent in new per cent bonds, 81
ner cent in preferred stock and 80 per
cent in common stock: Income bonds are
to pay $500 bond and to receive 4o per
cent in preferred stock and 40 per cent
IN common stock Preferred stock is to
pay 500 share, and is to receive Az per
cent in new preferred and 70 per cent In
new common. Common stock Is TO pay
$40 a share and to receive 10 per cent in
new preferred and 40 per cent in new
common The plan provides for the
raising of $21, $50, ,503 in cash, though only
s.. 200 GOO is received from the assessments
on the junior securities. Additional money
will be raised through the sales of Sc
curities, which have all been unoer-
written.
The syndicate managers agree to buy
S1S521 GOO t per cent bonds, $S,02l ,991 pre-
ferred stock and $12 653, ,929 common stock,
the proceeds to be used for the purchase
of outstanding bonds, stocks, notes, re-
ceivers' certificates, etc, and for the bet
terments A fve-year voting trust Is to
be created for both classes of stock. The
new system will comprise thirteen Sc
parate companies. The name of the new
company has not yet been definitely Sc
lected. -,
In the organization system there VIII
be !, 900 miles of road, of which lS3 miles
are main track, 163 miles spurs and fifty
four miles leased. Among the assets OF
the company will be 81, ,4S3 acres OF land
1t is estimated that the net earnings OF
the system for last year, after hxed
charges are paid, will be s4OS,636, but 1t Is
expected that the immediate improve
nents which are to be introduced and the
new equipment for which cash has al
ready been provided will result In large
economies, through which net earnings
on the present volume of business will be
increased $3.50, 900, making the total $685.
63e. This would be sufficient to pay
per cent on the preferred stock and would
leave a surplus of sl5O.000 for common
stock The proposed dividend on the
preferred calls for $500,0O0.
