 Mexico Record: There. is a noticeable and steady rise in the price of good fat cattle from any and all parts of the republic. The demand for fat beeves Is largely in excess of the supply, and the de. mand continues to grow. Lean stock are not in demand and the prices for poorly fattened cattle remain low. Ranchmen and cattle buyers are directing their attention this season to rearing better cattle both by giving better care to the stock with more ac- cnrate regulation of the fattening # process and quality of food, and by the importation of sturdier and larger breeds.

One is that the present system has been ln vogue quarter of century and could not De satisfactorily changed; another that the division of the public domain would De impracticable. This action was taken in view of the approaching meeting in Denver. where the federal commission recently ap- pointed by President Roosevelt in pursuance of a resolution passed at the Kansas City convention of the National Live Stock Association will begin it's lahors.

MOBILE TURNS And
WHIPS BIRMINGHAM
THE VISITORS PLAYED A HARD
GAME, WITH PRETTY TEAM
WORK-UMPlRE SEEMED HARD
ON BIRMINGHAM TEAM.

Mobile turned the tables on Birming-
ham last night and won the basketball
game by score OF 10 to Q. The first half
destroyed Birmingham chances to win
the game, as Mobile was in fine Trim and
played hard and consistently. Birming
ham was hardly In as good form as on
Friday night, and Ware did not play as
brilliantly. 1t seemed that the ball would
not drop in the basket for the Birming
ham trials. while IT would do just any old
way that the Mobile crowd wanted 1t to.
There was much objection to the UNI
pire. Hartwel. of Mobile. who the local
enthusiasts think gave birmingham the
worst end of the decisions. At times he
seemed TO be hardly fair, and some of
the visiting boys were so rough that 1t
seemed as II they would have been bet
ter players had they been sitting on the
sidelines with a substitute in their place.
Birmingham was not altogether blameless
In rough playing. but 1t was more the
result of evaporation at the decisions Of
the umpire than anything else.
The score was as follows:
Mobile-F Duffy. forward, goals; Nc
Kinstry, forward. goals Penny. center,
field and fould goals; Wilson. guard;
Roach. guard, / goal
Birmingham-F Jones, foul goals;
Ware. forward. 3 goals; Hucy and Berry,
CENTER e. Jones, guard; Gordon and
Ansley. guards.

Harry Vaughan will be here Monday
and will relieve Wheeler at first base
Wheeler plays hard and uses his head
admirably, but does not know the posi-
ton. He landed hard on the ball twice
but fielders pulled his long drives down
and on the hitting list his name does not
appear.
Bobby Triton, who twirled for Birming-
ham last year, showed up yesterday and
was Immediately given a red cap and
berth on the Coal Baron bench. He Is
looking fine and expects to make some
pitcher fight hard for his job. Later in
the day Harry Matthews the great and
only catcher and coach, appeared in Stag
town and there was great rejoicing His
melodious voice on the coaching lines will
be welcomed by every rooter in the dis
trict. He will be substitute catcher and
will give Milleriek considerable relief.
The New Workers will play Birming
ham again Monday and with the advan-
tage of practice the Southern leaguers
ought to be able to give the visitors

Turkey against carrying out the Sultan's
plans for the suppression and probable

information shows that some reports of
the atrocities have gone too far, but even
the conservative view indicates the neces-

suppression is to commence about a
month hence. The reports received, give
