HOGS TAKE BIG DROP
Lose rs Gents Per Hundred in Two
Weeks.
LOCAL RECEIPTS ARE INCREASED
Quality Continues Good, But the Low
Prices Do Not Seem to Be in Sight
News of the Week From the East
End.

fFrom Saturdays Daily.]
One week ago the top price for
hogs in this city was $3.50. The week
before that the top was $6.S5. Today
John Morrell and Company \quote the
top price at $6.10. This makes a drop
of rs cents per hundred in two weeks
and the end is not yet in sight. In
face of all this the local receipts have
steadily increased until today they are
about normal Morrell and Company
packed $500 this week against 5000
the week previous.
Total western packing 100000 COM
pared with 100000 the preceding week
and 100000 two weeks ago. For cor
responding time last year the num-
Der was 100000, and two years ago
100000. From March / the total is
13,4S0,000, against 12,850,00O year
ago-an incresae of 100000. The
quality in most instances is only fair,
and does not show much evidence of
an improving tendency. Prices have
sharply declined, the average for
prominent markets at the close being
about $6.15 per 100 pounds, compared
with $3.50 week ago, $6.S5 two weeks
ago, s5.O5 a year ago, and $4.45 two
years ago.
Special reports to the Cincinnati
Price Current show the number of
hogs packed since March 1 at under
mentioned places compared with last

Two Men Enter Grant Mohett's
Store Last Evening.
THEIR ACTIONS WERE WITNESSED
A Woman Living Across the Street
From the Store Saw the Burglars
But Thought They Were Connected
With the Firm.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
Grant Moffett's grocery store, locat-
ed at the corner of Main and Ash
was entered by burglars be-
tween 9 and 10 o'clock last evening,
and, after getting an ample supply
of cigars and tobacco the law breakers
made their escape. They opened the
safe, which was unlocked, and remov-
ed some papers from it, but did not
take any money, for the very good
reason that no money was deposited
there.
Seen From the Outside.
The work was evidently that of anna
teurs. Entrance to the store was
gained through the front, or Main
street door, a skeleton key being used,
according to appearances. The light
from the arc lamp hanging at the cor
ner shines on the door, and the men
ran risk of entering so early in the
evening.
Mrs. E. A. Rabens, living across
Main street from the store, saw the
men enter the store, procure the arti-
cles and leave, but not until they had
gone did she suspect they were bur
glars. She then telephoned for the po-
lice, who made careful search for
the men during the night, but they
could not be found, and had they been,
Mrs. Rabens could not have identified
them, as she did not see them well
enough to distinguish their features or
see the kind of clothes they wore.
Opened the Safe.
The safe seems to have been the OBJ
jective of the burglars. 1t was easily
opened, being unlocked, and they de-
parted from the usual system, open
ing the door without blowing the safe
first and later finding that it was I'm,
locked. This is an indication that the
burglars were acquainted with the Gus
the safe was unlocked at night. They
failed to note, however, that nothing
but papers were kept there. They
hauled out the little iron box in which
these papers were kept, and, probab.
ly chagrined at their lack of success,
took the papers, which were valuable
only to Mr.. Moffett.
Cheap Smokes.
No money was taken in" by the
burglars, but goodly supply of CT
gars and tobacco was appropriated
This is all that is missed by Mr. Moi.
felt, with the eXpection of the papers.
And They Got Away.
The men had no trouble in getting
away, and they will doubtless never be
caught, unless they are local men and
give themselves awayin subsequent &C
lions. Neither the policemen MrMoffett
have any idea who did the work,

Cummins and Dolliver Speak Here
Next Friday Evening.
TWO ABLE ADDRESSES PROMISED
The Largest Demonstration of This
Years Campaign Will Be the Result
and 1t VIII Insure Republican Sue
cess-Everybody is Invited.

Republicanism will receive such an
impetus next Friday evening that
there will never be any further doubt
of the result in Wapello county this
fall, Two of the most able speakers
who profess that faith win address
the people of this city. On account
of a former date at the Grand opera
house it has been necessary to hold
the meeting at the Turner opera
house. A band will be secured and
one of the biggest meetings OF the
campaign will be carried out. Hon.
A. B. Cummins and Senator J. P. Dol
liver will be the speakers. These
men need no introduction. 1t is the
earnest desire that all who can hear
them. To hear is to be convinced.
The speaking will begin at $50 o'clock
This is the only meeting arranged for
Ottumwa thus far. 1t is probable,
however, that another may be held
later on in the campaign, but it is be-
lieved that with these two brilliant
men already secured there will be no
further necessity of getting up anoth-
er demonstration.
