South st. Paul, Oct. rs.
CATTLE-Receipts of all kinds of cat
tie have been comparatively light this
week and the quality has averaged COM
mon. But for the fact that there has
been better demand in the stock cattle
division we would undoubtedly have had
a big lot of tail-ends on our hands to-
night. The market was very draggy the
first two days Of the week, but since
that time buyers have been in taking
whole strings, both good and bad. Prices
are no better, for the buyers here gave
it out fiat that they would not stand for
an advance, but statesmen were willing
to sell steady and clean up, so that the
market has had a better tone during
the past few days than for some time
past. These conditions, however, we re-
gard as only temporary. It is almost a
certainty that prices will not improve,
and we think that it will be hard
matter to move any kind of cattle except
best quality stuff until after election;
as buyers generally are holding off until
that time. Butcher cattle Of all kinds
are selling fully steady and are in good

IMPROVEMENT IN PORTO RICO.
Commissioner of Education BruI-
baugh Talks of Conditions.


CANTON, O., Oct. 26-M G. Brul-
baugh, commissioner of education to
Porto Rico, visited the president today
He delivered to the president a. message
from Gov. Allen, the nature of which
has not yet been made public. He also
made verbal report on affairs of the
island in general, and on educational
matters in particular. To the Associated
Press he said conditions in Porto Rico
are steadily improving. and the improve
ment will be more rapid as soon as cleo
ton is over. Commissioner Brulbaugh
said rapid recovery is being made from
the hurricane distress. He said the
picking of coffee, a 80 per cent crop this
year. and the grinding of sugar, an enor-
nous crop has just commenced, giving
employment to many and relieving much
distress. BY reason of the better food
now obtainable the death rate has been
greatly reduced. Eight hundred schools
are now in operation, with $4,000 pnpilS,
and an organization has been effected
are now in operation, with $500 pupils.
Only money Is necessary to execute these
plans. and it Is hoped to secure what
remains of 100000 appropriated for
Porto Rico before the tariff bill was
enacted for this purpose. The govern
ment Of Porto Rico is as solvent he de-
clared, as any bank, and no debt is con-
tracted until the money is available to
meet it. The duties of Is per cent of the
Dingley rates, he said, are God-send
to the people and provide the improve
ments they now have. The only opposi-
ton to it, he declared, comes FROM the
rich planters and wealthy class. The
people, as a whole, are eager for educa-
ton and accepting all the opportunity
offered them. The duties on imports
from the United States for the first week
of October exceeded. he said, the total
trade of the United States with the ISL
ands for whole year under Spanish
domination.
