Fancy Price for Live Stock.

OMAHA, Dec. 1.-THE prize cattle
that were on exhibition at the South
Omaha stock yards were sold at the
highest price paid in recent years on
that market. The 3-year-olds which
carried off first prize were owned and
fed by John Shannon of Hoskins, and
the Omaha Packing company brought
them at $3.50 per 100. 1t will be re-,
membered that the same company also
bought the highest priced cattle last
year and paid $7.25 for them.
Mr.. A. W. Clark's load of yearlingss
which were awarded first premium in
that class, were also sold at good
figure. There were heifers in the bunch
and the fifteen head sold at $6 to the
Omaha Packing company, which is the
highest price ever paid for mixed
bunch of yearlings on the South Omaha
market.

Kearhey wants Extension Completed.

KEARNEY, Neb.. Dec. 15.-F. j.
Keens, as representative of the Com
mercial club of this city, visited St.
Louis for the purpose of comforting
with the officials of the Missouri Pa
cific road regarding the extension of
the line from PrOsser to this place.
When the line was originally cOnst1uct-
ed it was the intention to build to
kearney, but work was stopped when
it was completed to Prosser, twenty
four miles Distant. General Manager
Harding gave him encouragement that
the line would ultimately be built, and
probably in the near future, but was
not prepared at present to make a

there was any truth in the rumor that

A GERMAN ship SINKS
Big Iron Training Vessel Goes Down in
the Mediterranean SEA.
THE NEWS is FROM MADAGASCAR
Forty Persons Are Said to Have Perished
in Their Efforts to Escape Frigate
Carried q Complement of 461-Be-
Ionged to German Navy.

MADRID, Dec. 1.-THE German
training frigate Gneisenau has foun-
dered off Malaga, sixty-five miles
northeast of Gibraltar. Private dis
patches that forty persons were
drowned.
The Gneisenau foundered at the en-
trance to the port of Malaga, where it
was about to take refuge from the ter
rible storm prevailing. at the pres
ent time only the masts of the vessel
are visible.
The training ship had been at Ma
laga since November 1, practicing with
guns of large caliber. She had been
previously at Megador, Morocco.
At 10 o'clock this morning review
Of the cadets was in order. The wind
was extremely violent and Instructions
were given to stoke up as rapidly as
possible. But already the mountain
Gus waves had struck the ship, snap
ping the anchor chains. She was driven
helpless toward the port and sank. The
men threw themselves into the sea and
clung to the wreckage, but the major
ity quickly disappeared.
Captain Krestmann died at his post
The Malaga lifeboat made heroic eff
forts and rescued fifteen, but the
weight capsized the boat and twelve
were drowned. The other three were
saved by means of ropes thrown to
them. The port authorities saved
many Of the sailors. The survivors
have been received at the hospital, the
Hotel Deville and private houses.
All the theaters in Malaga abandoned
their performances this evening.
A large number of the cadets can be
seen rom the shore clinging to the rig
ging. They are shouting and signaling
for help. The captain and many of the
cadets have been drowned 1t is be-
lieved that a party who left in one of
the ships boats and have not been
seen since are also lost.
The total loss is now thought to be
not less than 100. Some dispatches
say 40. Forty of those saved are bad
1y hurt

Judge Taft Declares New Measure VIII
Be for Revenue Only.
MANILA, Dec. 17.-Advices from
Iloilo, island of Panay, report that tile
American troops have been moving
northward and westward for several
days and that detachments of the
regiments have been acfive near their
stations
The insurgent losses during the last
ten days have been five killed, seven
wounded AMI forty taken prisoner. The
Americans Lave lost two killed and
three wounded
Large numbers of the natives, how
ever, are swearing allegiance to the
United States. In several recent at
tacks and expeditions in southern Luz
zon the insurgents have lost eight
killed, seven wounded and about twen-
ty captured. The Americans have
lost one killed and two wounded.
General Wheaton reports that 430 ma
tives have entered Calanao for regis
tration.
Most of the time of the Philippines
commission is now devoted to the
tariff bill. Judge Taft said today
that, generally speaking, the new
rates would be about 40 per cent of the
existing ra tes.
"It will he essentially a tariff for
revenue" he remarked, "but some of
the industries that are already estab-
lished will be given protection. The
commission is not considering the
question Of the constitntionality of
taxing United States products. The
precedents have been established in
the case of Forto Rico and by the mil
itary government of the Philippines
The bill requires the washing of cot
ton goods so as to eliminate the clay
used by European manufacturers,
which increases the weight This will
incidentally favor American goods.
The rate on kerosene will be reduced
from II cents a gallon 70 f. Some
American goods will be admitted free
and almost all will come in at re-
duced figures"

LINCOLN, Dec. 15.-The supreme

Standard Oil company to permit the
attorney general to inspect the books
OF the company, giving the list of
stockholders at present and from the
time the company was organized, the
minute books OF the company and
other books and papers. The order
was the decision Of the court a week

petent to try the case of the attorney
general against the Standard Oil COM
pany, in which it is sought to de5ar
it from the state on the ground that
it is a trust.

Indians Burned to Death.

CANNON BALL, N. D., Dec. IL
An Indian family consisting of father,
mother and four children were
burned to death last night by the ex-
plosion of can of gasoline. Another
family Of father, mother and one
child are frightfully burned and will
probably die. The Benton Transpor-
tation company had five tanks of
gasoline on the river bank at Bis
marck awaiting a boat. The bank
caved in and all the oil went into
the river. One tank was saved by an
Indian. Last night this Indian,
named War Bonnet, supposfng the
tank contained kerosene, lit a match
to fill a measure, when the explosion
took place.

FURTHER CHANGE DEMANDED.
Ernest satow Instructed to Demand
Modification of Joint Note.

Modification Of Joint Note.
PEKIN, Dec. 17-Deinite instruc-
tons, supplementing yesterdays COM
munication from London, have been
received by Sir Ernest Mason Satow,
the British minister, and he now de-
mands a modification of a point in the
joint note which the foreign ENJOYS
generally regard as important. This
means further delay, as all the minis,
ters must communicate anew with
their respective governments. Just
what is the nature of the objection
raised by Great Britain the ministers
decline to say, but they admit that
the new demand will involve a good
deal more diplomatic procedure.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 17-Oficials
here are at a loss to understand the
reasons for the important modifica-
ton in the joint Chinese note, which
it is reported the British minister to
Pekin is to demand before signing that
document preparatory to its presenta-
ton to the Chinese plenipotentiaries
They have no information on the SUBJ
ject, as nothing has been heard from
Mr.. Conger on the matter for some
days. The understanding here has
been that the joint note, as agreed
upon by the ENJOYS, was in the main
satisfactory to the British govern
ment It simply desired slight
amendment to the scope Of the agree
ment. This did not conflict with any
of the principles held out for by our
government. Such being the case it
was confidently expected the signature
of the British minister would be
promptly affixed to the agreement and
the note presented to the Chinese at
an early day.

No selection of Coadiutor Yet.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l7.-Before
leaving for his home in Minnesota last
night, Archbishop Ireland stated that
no selection Of coadjutor Or assistant
bishop for the archdiocese of st. Pau
has yet been made. During his recent
visit to Rome the archbishop suggested
to the holy see the need of appointing
an assistant prelate for that jurisdlc-
tion, owing to its rapid progress. It is
yet matter of conjecture whether
Bishop O'Gorman OF South Dakota Or
one of the secular clergy of ST Paul
will be prcmotcd to the office.

Atkinson, well known as a railroad
promoter, is in town in the interest Of;
his new enterprise-a railroad running.

ago Mr.. Perry conceived the idea of
running a railroad from his home in
Atkinson to the new Town site of Perry
on the northern bank of the Niobrara
river, in Boyd county. He promoted
the enterprise to the point where it
was ready for the ties and rails and
then his Chicago contractor fell down
on him and brought everything to a
Standstill.

BRAND LAW DOES NOT SUIT.
stoekmen Want 1t Amended SO as to Be
More E6aca clans

StOekmen Want It Amended SO as to Be
More Ehicacious.
LINCOLN, Dec. 15.-One of the in
Vulnerable bills that will be intro
duced in the next legislature for the
benefit of cattlemen of western Ne
braska will provide for reconstructing
the state marks and brands commits
sion and changing in many places the
law which governs and regulates the
exercise Of its authority. 1t Is pro-
posed to reduce the membership of the
commission to one man, who shall
maintain a permanent Office at the
state house, and to raise the fee
charged for registering a brand from
$3.50 to $3.50. The existing commits
sion is composed of four members, in
Guiding the secretary of state, each of
whom shares equally the proceeds
from the registration of brands.
S. P. Delatour of Llewellyn, presi-
dent of the Northwestern Cattlemen's
association and member Of the Nebras-
ka commission, is one Of the men who
are urging the proposed changes. He
has devoted more time to the work Of
the commission than any other man
and is interested in seeing its au!hori-
ty and jurisdiction extended so far as
possible. During the few months of
its existence the board has registered
over 5000 brands, and applications for
nearly 5000 have been passed upon,
many Of which were returned because
Of duplication. Cattlemen in all parts
or Nebraska are manifesting consid-
rable interest in the work, believing
that the time is not far distant when
the official registration Of brands will
greatly benefit their class
One of the arguments used in sup
port of the plea for the amendments
is that the work of the commission
could be much more successfully pros
ecuted by one man giving his entire
time than by four men who meet on-y
periodically. 1t is also argued that an
increase in the fee would enable the
commissioner to enforce the law and
bring it into more general operation.
However, the matter of fees is con-
sidered Of secondary Importance and
the increase would probably not be
urged should it meet with any strong
opposition.
