Liuht Sentence.

Dan Hughes who shot and killed
the Cherryvale Marshal, Jones,
some time back was found guilty OF
manslaughter in the third degree.
He may get off with six months in
Jail or can be sent to the pen for 3
years.
1t seems a marshal's life is not
considered very valuable in Mont
gomery county.

Committee Organizes,

AT a meeting of the Republican
state committee in Topeka, last
Friday evening, after some little
sparring IN which it was developed
that secretary of state R. Burrow
had ten of the fourteen candidates
with him for chairman, 1t was fin
ally agreed that the only way out
of the dilemma was for Stubbs to
accept the place.
This Mr.. Stubs did not wish 10
do but after a consultation with his
friends and with Mr.. Burrow, Mr..
Burrow withdrew and Stubbs was
unanimously selected. Though Mr..
Burrow held the winning hand he
threw it down in the interests oi
harmony, and the committee soon
got down to business.
Clyde Miller was selected as
secretary and p. |. Bonebrake as
treasurer.
In this, the first step of the com
ing campaign, we fell that no mis-
take was made.
Mr.. Stubs was the logical can
didate for the place and all parties
agree that he is a worker, and with
all thoroughly honest man. Ii
is great sacrifice for him tc
accept this place but he was willing
to sacrifice his personal intere SITS
when it seemed necessary for the
party's good.
Mr.. Hoch cast his own vote and
the votes of the two proxies he held
for T. A McNeal, yet there can be
no doubt but his fast choice was
Stubbs.

him down.

figures today were of no important signi-
ficance. The stock at Liverpool showed
a trifiing decrease while the figures We're
still behind last years at corresponding
rate The visible supply increased a
trif1e for the total, but decreased for
the American supply over $4,000 bales.
while the supply of American is today 2S,-
600 less than one year ago.
All accounts agree that supplies at
mills are running low and that prices
are gradually being advanced for manu-
featured goods, ins fact this must be the
case if mills are to run at all and the
world is to be clothed.
In the Liverpool market today there
was a break of some ten points. Here
there was an opening of about ten points
decline, but the market failed to develop
any such weakness as bears had calcu-
lated on, in fact, the rise has been so
sharp In both markets that 1t was con-
sidered only reasonable that the move
ment above Is cents should be stopped for
the present time. Everything points to
a small movement next week. Port re-
eeipts today were 24oOO against $4,000 last
year.
1t soon appeared that no great guam
tity of cotton was coming in the market
and prices recovered some but there was
not much business. The interior towns
were shipping considerably more than
they were receiving and the general stu
alton was looked upon as quite strong
with a short interest quite large and
very nervous

Caldwell & Wards Grain Letter.

BY Bartlett Frazin & Darlington.
Chicago, January 2S.-Wheat has been
very strong today. No especial news,
but the manipulation in it continues pow
erful We are still of the opinion that
the cash article being in such big demand
is purchase on any recession. May is
too congested to make trading pleasant.
1t would certainly be a dangerous short
sale. The corn that will grade continues
surprisingly small in quantity. Much
higher prices should result.
Provisions have been quiet, although
very firm and May lard has sold higher
than in some time. We shall send you
by mail tonight something special on May
lard. 1t looks to us like the greatest
purchase we know of in the country to-
day of any line. Cotton oil is short and
has been reduced from 125,000 tierces in
December to 1900 tierces today and the
packing season is half over.
