have wanted to make comparison, but
felt little ashamed to do so. On re-
ceiving THE AMERICAN Thursday fore
noon, after having no mail for forty-eight
hours, that little item from West Sullivan
was interesting reading. My daily of

full than the West Sullivan correspondent
thought.
As a rule Franklin people do not say
much about their fast horses, but a little
incident OF short time ago is worthy of
mention. One OF the local horsemen has
a three year-old with considerable speed.
One day this man harnessed up his colt to
give his wife an afternoon drive. They
had not gone far when his wife, look ing
back, saw a team coming at breakneck
speed and said: sSomeone is racing u.s."
The usband remarked: 81 will show
them how useless it is for them to at
tempt to drive by me-" and he whipped
up, leaving his pursuer far in the rear.
Then he eased up on his colt, and pulled
out to one side to let the de-
feated team pass. His feelings can be
imagined better than described when he
found he had been racing a runaway
horse.

Weekly Market Latter.

CATTLE-Our cattle market has been
a very quiet one thus far this week, and
there will probably not be much If any
Improvement before the first of next
week. The quiet market is not due to
the lack of demand for cattle, but to the
fact that the Fourth of July came this
year on Tuesday, usually our heaviest
day, and, as it was impossible to trans
act business on that day, there were
practically no receipts and but few buy
erS. =
The receipts have been light each day,
with prices about steady with last week
We can see no change in the demand or
prices for any fair to good butcher cattle,
but the common, grassy cows have de-
clined 106D15c a hundred. The very best
quality are selling al $4,000, and the fair
to medium ones at S2.7503.10.
Veal calves are a little lower, selling
at $4.5OG5; fat dry-fed steer stuff is SELL
ing at $4.75Q5.20 good, fat bulls, 81. 75q3.25;
common bulls, $2.25@2.6O
There were but few buyers on the mar
ket looking for light steer and heifer
stuff. Among the cattle that were Of
fered for sale the yearling steers
brought from $3.50 to 81; heifers, $3.50
so; steers, weighing 600 to 700 lbs, $3.50
@3.SO for the best quality, with the COM
mon and off-colored kinds selling at s. IS
@3. There has been a fair demand for
heavy feeders of good quality, but buy
ers are not inclined to pay more than "a
for them, and shippers must bear this
in mind when buying. The heavy feeders
sold have ranged in price from $3.50 to
$425. Mixers and springers have been
selling at about steady prices for the
best, while the poor ones are out of de-
mand and sell at low prices when buyers
can be found at all.
During the next few days we look for
the market to go shade lower on all
kinds of cattle, except for the good to
best quality butcher stuff. 90
HOGS-There has been an unusually
light run of hogs this week and prices
have ruled high. Today "wednesday
the bulk of the hogs in sold at $3.50 for
the best and So. and So 771a for some fairly
good quality loads. The market today
was fully steady, with the prices paid
packers have advanced and are selling
ing at $1.50@2 We look for the market
to hold steady during the rest of the
week.
SHEEP-There has been a good de-
mand for sheep and lambs this week,
while the receipts have been light. Prices
paid have been fully steady and in some
instances from 10c to 25c higher than last
week Good fat sheep will sell for $3.50
as; good fat lambs, s.. 25606; stock lambs,
$41450 stock sheep, So. 25d375, and bucks

GREENE IN DEMAND.
Wanted I'm Various Localities for
Alleged RuncO Work.


HARRISBURG, Pa, July 5.-The case
of James H. Greene, who is wanted in
half a dozen Western states for buncoing
farmers, was bofere Gov. Stone today.
Greene was arrested here ten days ago,
and has since been in Jail awaiting the
arrival of detectives from the West The
sheriff and deputy sheriff of Walla Walia,
Wash, came here with a requisition for
the prisoner for buncoing Il farmer out
of $1,000 in that city. A Chicago detec-
tive also arrived with a requisiton fer
the prisoner, who is alleged to nave bum
coed farmers in Illinois, and officers are
on the way here from Iowa with re-
QUESTIONS for the prisoner.
Today detective from Westmorelaud
county reached Harrisburg with a war
rant for Greene, who is wanted at Green's
burg for fleeing farmer out of 81 800 in
1881. All of the parties were represented
by counsel at the hearing before Gov.
Stone today, on the acquisitions.
The governor ordered Greene turned
over to the Westmoreland county authori-
ties, and decided to allow the reuuisition
of the Washington authorities after the
Westmoreland people are through with
him..
The governors action was checked by
the issuing of a warrant this afternoon
from the executive department to Sheriff
Sellers on the requisition papers sent
here from the state of Washington Judge
Weiss said the only thing he could do
under these circumstances Is to hand the
prisoner over to the Washington authori-
ties provided the accused mans identity
is established by the Washington authori-
ties. After an hours consultation between
the judge and attorneys the prisoner
was sent back to jail to await final orders
from Gov. Stone. The governor left Cor
Washington this afternoon, and will not
return before Friday.
