SPECIAL LIVESTOCK LETTER.
Situation as Viewed by Prominent
Cnnr,issinn Firm,

Chicago, Feb. 12.-Receipts of cattle
Tuesday were $500 head and the mar
ket ruled practically steady There
was a slow, quiet, trade with not much
life TO the market. a few lots of
fairly good cattle sold at $3.50 TO 500,
but the great bulk of the supply on
sale was rather common, s is gener-
ally the case on Tuesday. Good to
choice butcher stock ruled fully
steady, but Gamers have been hard to
sell at anything like satisfactory prices
and prices for such are fully 20 cents
lower than last week.
The run of hogs was $4,000 and the
trade was an uneven ons: good to
choice hogs sold practically steady.
while the commoner sorts averaged 5
cents lower The bulk of the good
hogs on sale sale sold at s6.15 to $685.
with the best lots up to $40 and
$3.50 Some 5000 to 5000 head We're
left unsold, but the market was In
pretty good condition at the decline.
Receipts of sheep were 5000 and the
market again ruled strong and higher.
Choice lambs sold at $3.50 to $685.,
with the fair to god grades at 5000 to
$500 Some Colorado lambs on sale
brought s625. Good yearlings sold at
1913 to 5000, while some good expor,
wethers sold at $500, the latter being

Stock Yards Gossip.

Little or no Improvement can be de-
tected in the stocker and feeder trade.
Outside demand is unusually poor.
Receipts of horses at the union stock
wards in 1901 totaled 109,353, against
5000 head in 1900. Arrivals of horses
to date for 1902 aggregate 1871,
against 1920 reported for the same
period last year.
There are $4,000 lambs on feed this
winter in the San Luis and Arkansas
valleys, as against 273000 in the Arkan-
sas valley alone last year. That's diff
ference of 10000 in favor of better
prices this year.-Fort Collins Courier.
The average weight of hogs at Kan
sas City in the first seven days of Feb
ruary was ITO lbs. This is the lowlev-
in Kansas City's history says the Dro-
vers' Telegram, in which the average
was so low. That was the first week of
this year. The last weeks average was
43 lbs lighter than in the first week OF
February last year. In the last nine
years the average in the first week In
February was 217 lbs, just AZ lbs heavi-
er than the past week.
Much distress is becoming apparent
among sheepmen of Wyoming, especial
ly the central section of the state. The
trouble is that they have too many
sheep on hand and too little money to
spend in caring for them. When the
prices of lambs slumped SO last fall,
every sheep owner who could possibly
see his way thru refused to send his

FAILURE AT BOSTON.
Publishing Firm of Maynard 6 Co. Goes
to the Wall.


Boston, Mass. Feb. 12.-Smali, May
nard & Co., publishers, of this city,
have assigned for the benefit of their
creditors to Norman p. White, treasur-
er of the Boston Bookbinding Company
of Cambridge.
The cause of the failure is said to
have been bad business judgment in
handling the finances of the corporation
during the last year. Mr.. White, who
has taken charge of the affairs of the
concern. says the books are somewhat
confused, and careful examination
will have to be made before the exact
state of affairs can be determined.
The creditors of the corporation are
favorably disposed. it is said, and there
is every reason to believe, according to
Laurens Maynard, that the company
will continue in business as formerly.
There Is no expectation of bankruptcy
proceedings, and Mr.. White believes the
company will resume business. An Of
fer will be made to the creditors, and
it is believed it will be SO favorable 1t
will be accepted at once.
Laurens Maynard secretary of the
corporation, stated yesterday afternoon
that he was as much surprised as any
body that an assignment was found to
be necessary. From the publishing
viewpoint the last year has been a sue
cessful one with the corporation, he
said.
The firm of Small, Maynard & Co.,
was started by Herbert Small and Lau-
rens Maynard. two well known young
Boston literary men.

FEMININE Stiffness.

Silly women will do almost anything
in their enthusiasm for male perform
err, and the fifty who rushed at Kubelik
in Brooklyn, after performance, and
endeavored to kiss him, are untortuna-
tely not the only examples of such hys-
terical adulation among their sex. Poor
Captain Hobson was made ridiculous
before the whole country by just such
nonsense. OF course the man in such
a case is taken at a tremendous disad-
vantage. He can neither accede nor re-
fuse with dignity. 1t is said that some
of the Brooklyn women tainted Kube-
Xix with being a coward. But there are
many otherwise brave men who would
shrink from such an onslaught; and
there are women whom it would re-
quire no small bravery to kiss.-Provi-
