SHEEP-There has been a good. liberal
run OF fat sheep and ambs all the week,
receipts showing a good gain both over
last week and over the same week Of last
year, For the year TO date there Is an
increase over last year amounting TO over
1900 mead.
The market at this point has been in
very satisfactory condition all the week.
The quality showed considerable improve
ment over last week, so that the market
on paper looks higher, but considering the
quality the market is on Just about the
same basis IL was a week ago 50 far as
the better grades are concerned The feel
ing or the habitat stun. however, is
weak and prices are perhaps a little lower.
That Is owing 10 the fact that the habitat
stun is not killing out al all satisfactorily
and II packers can get enough Of the bet
ter grades 20 nj their orders they never
lose an opportunity TO pound the common
stun. For that reason commission men
have been advising their customers to hold
back their unfinished grades
The feeder situation has not shown much
change ali the week Supplies have been
very light and as there Is quite a demand
for good feeders prices have held fully
steady.

CATTLE-There were only Just a few
punches Of cattle IN the yards today, so
that a test of the market was not made,
For the week receipts have been a little
in excess of last week, and also OF the
same week Of last year. The receipts for
the year to date show a decrease as COM
pared with the same period Of last year.
But while supplies have not been excessive
at this point the Chicago market has been
flooded this week, about 1900 head being
reported on sale at that market. The de-
mand was hardly equal to the occasion and
prices suffered a decline amounting to 200
SOC. which, OF course, had some effect upon
the river markets.
Taking the week as a whole the beef steer
market at this point has been in very salts
brisk practically all the week, and each
days offerings were well cared for. On
owing to the break in Chicago, but the
week closed with prices on the more de-
slEaole grades no more than a dim lower;
l5c lower. The bulk of the fair to good
cattle are selling from s4lO to -A.75. and
while a finished load ought to sell consid-
erabIy above those figures.
The COW market has also held up In very
satisfactory manner all the week. The big
bulk OF the receipts consisted of COW stun,
but still the demand was sufficient to handle
the supply without much break in prices.
About the middle of the week there was a
strong and active market, and prices very
near back to the close of last week. The

The medium grades sell largely from 81. Is

$2.O0 to $2.75.
The market on bulls suffered quite a
break and is safely 2d40c lower than early
last week. Veal calves. though, have been
strong all the week.
The market on strictly choice feeders is
not much lower, but the general run OF
stockers and feeders are l5q25c lower for
the week and are very slow sale at the
decline, as country buyers all want cattle
showing quality. Representative sales:

WERE TOUGH YOUNG CROOKS.
The Three Prisoners Captured Yesterday Com
fessed to Nine Murders.

Chicago, Nov. 20. Chained wrist to
wrist, their hair matted with dried
blood, their clothing covered with dust
and dirt, two boys, Peter Niedermeier
and Harvey Vandine, sat last night in
the presence of Mayor Harrison, and
Chief OF Police O'Neil, calmly confess
ing to their share OF three months
career OF crime, which has included
nine murders, the wounding Of FIVE
's85tiler men, and a leng series 4ofs rob
berries. The two young bandits, Meth
er OF whom is over FL years of age, to-
gether with their companion, Emil
Roeski, who is no older, were captur-
ed near Liverpool, Ind, yesterday, aft
er a fight, in which they batt1ed against
policemen, railroad detectives, railroad
1aborers and farmers. One man was
killed, another fatally wounded and all
three OF the young bandits wounded,
but not seriously. The fourth man,
Gustave Marx, has been under arrest
some days on the charge of numbering
a policeman
When the grand jury assembled this
morning the case OF Harvey Vandine,
Peter Neidermeier and Emil Roeski,
bandits, who fought the police yester-
day, was given precedence over all
other business. 1t is expected the boys
will plead guilty and speedy verdict
will be reached when placed on trial.

venient tool for grasping spectators
and cattlemen.'
The article further says that the bill
will turn over the lands of the people
Ito corporations and land grabbers,'
and that .'fnonstrous wrongs would fol-
low its enactment"
Mr.. Maxwell himself says that the
failure of the bill to repeal entirely ex-
listing laws lis innocent enough in ap-
pearance until considered in connection
with the irrigation law
And he adds: " Ii congress passes a
straight repeal bill, it can do SO with
out any such monstrous blurders as
would result from the enactment Of the
Hansbrough amendment. =
There is now no question that there
lis to be fierce contest over changing
sor repeating the land laws and that the
Hansbrough bill will be the chief point
2of attack. Hansbrough claims his bill
is all right, and proposes seriously to
meet the public demand for the better
protection Of the public domain from
land grabbers and spectators His op-
ponetits claim that his bill IS drawn in
the interest Of cattlcmet and similar

word has been spoken MI. Maxwell
will also come III for some criticism,
