HOG MARKET NEAk
Fair Saturday Supply and All
Sold.
TOPS ARE AT $3.50
Cattle Have Two BunCheS
Mixed.

There was an easy feeling on the live
stock markets al lover the country yes
terday and the tone Of the general trad
ing was inclined TO the weak side. As for
the local market it was very light in
point of recsipts and the market prices
paid for the hogs which did arrive were
quotable as weak along with with the
sympathy of the rest Of the western
points. There was very little inducemenJ
10 higher prices which would naturally
govern this point as other markets indi-
Gated them. There was not very heavy
run of hogs received yesterday and il be-
ing Saturday this was not expected TO be
a day of large receipts. There was q
very light line Of offerings on the hog
market yesterday, but the day consider
ed. it was very fair and all the light run
was discounted by the several interests.
All the car hogs yarded received the best
of attention and everything was sold early
which arrived. The wagon trade was
light as always happens on the closing
day of the week There was a lethargy
very pronounced about the yards and
solely fro mthe want Of desirable hogs
in which to deal. Good fat butcher hogs
would have sold readily but there was
lack of this grade as well as of any other
grade. All the offered hogs sold and sold
well, and the demand from both the local
packing call and the shipping require
ments was sufficient to take in many
more hogs than arrived. One quite inter-
esting feature of the market yesterday
was the fact that the tops, the bulk OF
sales, and the average weight were the
same as for the same day before, max
ing two days together just the same ex-
act figures, save the receipts, which were
about half those of Friday. The quality
was about the same as that of Friday
and though not at all especially attrac-
tive, was not bad and well up 70 the stan
dard of the other days of the week and
for some time back.

METHODISTS TAKE ACTION

washington. Nov. .22.-The general mis-

for mission work in Utah was under dis

HOW TRAINS ARE ARMORED

LFrom the New York Tribune.1
Many dispatches from the Transvaal
refer to the armored trains which are
used to transport troops and passen-
gers through the district in which mil
itary operations are going on, and in
Quiry naturally arises as to what con-
SUtuteS a train of that kind.
1t is nothing more than a train of or
dinary freight cars which have been
strengthened on the inside with shets
of metal pierced with holes, through
which rifles and small field pieces may
be used on attacking party. A fiat car
or gondola, with a heavy piece or two
OF artillery, may be a part of such a
train, and in some instances enough
of the closed cars may be taken away
to allow Maxim gun to be placed in
position An army officer in speaking
OF these trains said: ''They are al
ways 1mprOViSed and fitted up with the
material nearest at hand. This may
be railroad iron. sheets of steel or
sandbags. and sometimes nothing more
than heaVy lumber. We used armOreG
trains in Porto Rico and in the Philip
pines, and the trains about which we
read as being used in the TransVaal are
probably IN most respects like those
lmprOVised portable StrOnghOldS. There
are some cars, like the new steel cars,
which have advantages as means of
transportation in a country made dan
gerOus by an enemy but almost any
class known as 'armOred' at short no
tice, and the armoring Will depend on
the mechanical skill of the officer in
command" ."

GIRL OF12 RUNS A HOTEL.


LF'rom the New York Journal
Miss Natalie Miller, who has curly
hair and plays with a large doll and a
little Jumping-jack, is the youngest ho-
tel manager in the United States. She
IS only twelve years old, and yet, ac-
cOrding to all accounts, she is the sole
proprietor and chatelaine of the Hotel
MinOt, at one hundred and twenty
sixth street and Eighth avenue.
Very few of the guests in this large
hosiery knew that little Miss Natalie,
TO whom they frequently gave sugar
plums and o1d-fashioned moIasses can
dy, or watched her as she slammed her
gag doll against the marble walls, was
their hostess, but nevertheless, she was
and is.
The whole truth came out yesterday
when her father, NJ. Hubbard Miller,
was brought up in supplementary pro-
ceedings. Hhe was sued by Mrs. Foley,
the wife of a former police captain, for
500 rent His defence was that he was
without funds and that the hotel which
folks thought belonged to him, was the
property of Natalie, who operated it,
paying a salary to him, discharging the
help when she chose and collecting the
bills.
The story told by Mr. Miller about the
mana cement of the hotel was not less
remarkable than that relating to the
claim against him. He leased a fiat.
The owner of the fiat, who IS a friend
of his, desiring to sell it, made a lot of
leases with the tenants, covering
lengthy periods. Accordingly to Mr..
Miller. the lease that he signed could
be broken at any moment that he
chose, although it is not apparent that
that fact was known to Mrs Foley. As
soon as she took possession Miller NOV
ed out, whereupon she sued for five
months rent.
In his testimony Mr. Miller declared
that his daughter Natalie inherited $50
600 from her mother, which was invest
ed in the hotel. Although she is only
twelve years old. she rules it with a
high hand. hiring him and a man nam
ed Humphreys at a small salary to do
the work
According to Miller's statement, Miss
Natalie bosses him around in splendid
style and calls Humphreys to account
whenever he is remiss in his duties.
I am not a salaried persons said
Miller, land although people think I
own the hotel I do not My daughter
Natalie is the sole proprietor, and L
daren't say a word when she is
around"
Miss Natalie, the youngest hotel own
er in the country, was in the corridors
of the Hotel AIinOt last evening. In her
hands was an Indian rubber sQuak doll,
with which she was having all sorts Of
fun. She did not possess the air of
the business woman that her father
says she is, but, of course, appearances
frequently are deceptive.

TO FIeHr m,eoVERN.
Harry Forbes, of Chicago, the Next
Victim - Santry Anxious.

Chicago, Nov. Announcements
have been completed for a match be-
Terry McGovern, of Brooklyn, for a
meeting at catch weights before the
Broadway Athletic club, the date not
being selected, but to be either Decem-
Der 8 or Is. The purse agreed upon IS
So, 600, with a. liberal losers end. Lou
HOuseman completed the arrangements
for both men and the articles are now
on the way TO New York
This match Will be regarded locally as
a fOOlhardy thing for Forbes to go into,
as the catch weight proposition Will
give him something like ten pounds
the worst of the weights In perfect
condition Forbes will hardly scale more
than 116 pounds and at the sadne time
AfcGOvern may be abe TO make that
figure. But he does not intend to train
very hard for this battle and will use
it merely as a preliminary bout to the
Dixon championship fight, which he has
set his heart on winning.
He viii be on the road much of the
time, but at that will be kept in per-
feet condition by his careful manager
At Tattersall's, in Chicago, Saturday
night McCfOVern did something that no
other featherweight in the country is
capable of accomplishing. It is probable
he can defeat Forbes almost as easily
as he did either Haley or Smith, even
allowing for the fact that Forbes is of
higher class than either of the men
who faced the Brooklyn terror SatUr-
day night.
In speaking Of the match yesterday
afternoon Forbes had this to say:
I fought him before and did not
find that he was so much of a terror as
he is reported. Admitting that he has
improved, and is today one of the best
men of the weight the world has ever
seen, I think still that I have a chance
with him. He isn't going to whip me
with one punch the way he put them
out at Tattersalls. The catch weight
proposition can be explained by my
saying that out of condition McGovern
viii be worse than he would be if train
ed down to weight I would as soon
fight him at 12O pounds. for then he
would not be able to stand a long fight
I have no fear of him.
Eddie Santry is the latest candidate
to seek the scalp of the little Brooklyn
fighter. His manager, Sam PoOler, Wis
tied him yesterday in his West side re-
sort, and after a conference decided to
throw out a def to McGOvern. Both
take exceptions to the statement that
Terry is the featherWeight wonder of the
country. Santry claims that he won
that distinction by a virtual victory
over George Dixon in New York, and
his real defeat of Ben Jordan recently.
Santry viii have no trouble in making
122 pounds, and at that weight can be
strong. He thinks AcGOvern can make
little less than that and is willing to
meet the unbeaten Brooklyn boy at that
figure.
