GREAT FORTUNE
FOR MRS. SKEWES
Salt Lake Woman Heir to Portion
OF East St. Louis.
FAMOUS M'CLINTOCK ESTATE
Cloud OF Long Litigation Raised by
The Discovery OF Important Docu-
ments In a Pittsburg Vault

The rather pleasing word has reached
Mrs j. b. Sleeves, Of this city, that the
slS.00O,OOO estate left by James MeClin-
took. " East st. Louis, for which she
and twelve other heirs have been con-
tending for SO many years, is soon TO
be Strengthened up and a meeting OF
the heirs has been called for St. Louis
next Friday. This sudden clearing UP
of the clouds of litigation that have
been hanging over the estate for so
many years is the result OF the dis
coyery of some very valuable doou-
ments in Plttsburg vault few days
since. The papers clear the title OF
James McClintOck 10 the property
which Mrs. Sleeves says Is now worth
many millions more than Is given out.
The documents were supposed to have
been lost for fourteen years and with
them gone the heirs were powerless to
prove their right 10 the McCllntock es-
tate. The founder OF the fortune set
tied many years ago IN East ST. Louis
and died without a family and without
a will. The property legally fell TO the
brothers and sister. They were llvins
at distance, however, and neglected
their interests. In the meantime the
land was taken up by wealthy people
and is now occupied by magnificent
homes and great business blocks so that
It's value can not be computed, but II
Is safe to say that sl3,O0O,0O is but a
fraction OF its worth. Ann McClintook,
a sister OF the founder of the fortune,
was Mrs. Sleeves grandmother, so
that the latter vii, come In for goodly
portion Of the estate.
Mrs. Shelves is the wife Of j. u.
Sleeves, who Ia deeply interested in the
Big Indian copper mine in Grand coun-
~. She has lived in Salt Lake for
twenty-one years and intends to re-
.naiu here

SLUMP IN PRICES or STOCK
Thanksgiving Feasts 10 Come Cause a Falling
Oh 10 Butchers Product,
Heavy sheep Receipts at Kansas City
Have Also the Effect of Lower
lug the Prices.
Special Correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
Kansas City Stock Yards, Nov. a.
The beginning Of the season when every
well regulated bill OF fare contains sug-
gestlons OF game and poultry dishes and
the average appetite goes into training
for Thanksgiving feasts in which baked
turkey, cranberry sauce and mince pie
cut a very large figure, has, to some ex-
tent, inaugurated the annual Novem-
Der slump In values Of livestock In
tended for the butchers block and the
past weeks cattle business has, as
general proposition, shown declining
tendency. Beef steers OF the dressed
beef and shipping grades that were sell
ing on a $50 to $50 basis during the
first few days Of November are now
being exchanged on rs to 40 cent low
er basis. and grass beeyes show nearly
an equal degree of shrinkage In values.
There has been a disposition to rally
the market during the past two days
and business Is In an entirely healthy
condition but the high mark, excepting
for the Christmas beeves has probably
been passed for the year. The cessa-
ton OF the heavy receipts Of range
COWS that was a noticeable feature or
the market few weeks ago has kept
the female cattle market from UNDER
going any radical decline and prices
show some Improvement over the low
time In October. Stock COWS and heif-
ers are subject to some fluctuations,
but upon the whole, are In active de-
mand.
The western feeder shipments have
about ceased, and as the northern and
southern offerings have not begun to
arrive. there Is little doing In the
stoeker and feeder market at the pres
ent time. But the open geason' which
Is about to begin and which viii exs
tend to January 81, 1902, viii start sup
plies from below the quarantine line
and as reports from Iowa, Minnesota
ana Wisconsin are TO the effect that
their offerings were received at the TO-
cal market from those three states
alone, there viii be no cause for coun-
try buyers To complain. either Of lack
of supplies or Of variety OF qualities.
The northern feeder season Is expected
10 hegin about December |. or three to
four weeks earlier than last year.
Heavy sheep receipts at other points
had the effect Of lowering prices on the
local market. and the full range OF the
decline amounts to about 70 cents per
hundred weight, Western muttOns
were In good supply. but there were few
western lambs offered. The packing
demand was active and trades were
quickly accomplished Choice native
lambs are worth i25 to 4.6O; western
lambs, 400 to $50; western wethars,
2,9O 10 $40, and western yearllngs, so
TO LEO. Fat ewes range from 275 to S2j,
and feeding lambs up 70 325.
Receipts of livestock for the week
were il,O0O cattle, $4,000 hogs and % 300
sheen. as compared with $4,000 cattle,
81 700 hogs and 2S,sOo sheep for the cor.
responding week. and 10000 cattle, 3d.
200 hoRs and 247OO sheen for the col
responding week last year

ton. especially among railroad men
A notloeable feature OF the affair was
the faot that the helper engine when
ran into the freight Immediately there
after ran % miles east on the main
line before stopping. The helper was
reversed just as II struck the freight
engine. and lis tender telescoped into
the cab. But with all that, the engine
ran nearly to Mountain Home with It's
wreckage trailing behind, and then on
" came to stand still because Its
steam dropped down below propelling
force. Had there been any train In
It's path. there would have been another
fearful accident TO chronicle.
Veteran railroad men declare II was
the worst accident they ever saw, with
one engine IN the ditch, telegraph poles
with which some of the nat cars were
loaded and all manner Of debris scat
tered over the right Of way and fourteen
cars mashed into all shapes The eX-
perience Of the injured train hands was

Frank Oman OF the helper engine were
flung through their cab windows and

the track upon sand bank, which
saved them from injury They were
unable to regain their engine before II
ran away
While the Short Line officials deeply
sympathize with the injured and the
friends OF the dead. they feel relieved
In knowing that the railroad company

eral Superintendent Calvin remarked
this morning, the accident was the
fault OF four men on the freight, who

were. and that the engineer must have
forgotten them In continuing beyond
the point where he was ordered to meet
the helper engine.

COMPARES SERVICE

watcrmastcr Hines has been making
a few invldious comparisons OF the
water service in eastern cities using
water meters with that Of Salt Lake

tories than any city west Of Chicago,
and water population " 10000, has

Ions OF water. II has $50 miles Of water

ii0 miles IL mains and 10000 services,
has O daily consumption u 10000 900
gallons or a per capita Of go gallons.
This saving Is largely accounted Tor by
The meter system. Providence has IS pu
cent OF rs water services meiered, While
salt Lake City has only 10 per cent.
Buffalo with no meters has a per capt.
ga consumption u 800 gallons; Pitts
burg. go. Portland Ore, i65. Phila-

only 81 gallons per capita. Bayonne.

population Of $4,000. uses only q gallons
per cau'fa daily.
Mr.. Hines says that II the water sys-
TEN were generally metered and the
waste stopped there would be water
enough TO supply population Of $780,

LOSS BY WATER.
Not Much Fire, but Smoke and Water
Cause Heavy Loss.

II Is estimated that loss OF about
$4,000 was sustained by the Davis Shoe
company and the Elite photograph GAL
lery at 2il south East Temple street.
In a fire which broke out shortly after
midnight last night The damage was
mostly due % the rayages Of smoke
and water upon the stock and the orr
gin of the fire r. attributed 10 defective
wiring The stock was covered with
Insurance.
Mr.. Davis ana his assistants have
been taking an inventory Of the losses
Of ihe company today. and while the
result IS not absolutely accurate. H.
says The water spread over about 900
OF $4,000 worth Of stock. nearly all OF
which Is more ar less DAMAGED But
this loss is more then covered by IN
fuuucc. the adjustment OF which Is
rendered much easier than n the dam
