INCREASED DEMAND
Wool Market Has NotieeabIy Ad.

Boston Mass. Jan. 12-There Is
noticeable an increased demand this

the manufacturers hesitated at any

recently taken in large supplies OF

to such proportions that if some
thing is not done very soon, the in
dustry in several of the western
states and territories will be com
pletely destroyed Our efforts in this
direction have SO far been without
effect, but it is believed that if our

Should the Lodge bill removing
tariff on hides become a law. the
loss would nc fall upon the impor-
ter or the manufacturer. but upon
the man who produces the animal.
The average tariff being s1.25 for
every hide. it will cause the cattle
raisers of the nation to lose $12,-
100000 annually. If the Lodge bill
should meet with favor. there is no
question but an attempt would imme-
diately be made to remove the tariff
on wool. entailing loss of at least
$33, ,000,0 600 per annum and a reduc-
ton in the price of sheep to the fig
ures prevailing under the free trade
law-98c to $125 per head
1t was an undisDuted fact that the
decline in the value of beef animals
during the past eighteen months
amounts to more than $3 PEI hund-
red, hogs an average of S. per ami
NAL, and sheep from 75c to one dol
lar per animal. Consumers, however,
are paying the same price for their
meats as during the time maximum
prices were realized by the growers.
AS the home and export demand for
meat products is as great as ever
and there has been no material in
crease in the number of head of live
stock. these conditions are unca:led
for and the only aDparen reason for
them is the unjust manipulation of
prices at market centers, assisted byI
the lack of knowledge on the part
of producers as to the visible supply.
The financial condition of the as
sociatiOn was not very fiatering.
The dues and fees are sufficient to
pay all necessary expenses if they
were promptly paid. A number of
the members are delinquent Secre-
tary Martin said it was unjust to
expect a few progressive organiza-
tions to advance the funds necessary
to prosecute the work while others
remained inactive and received the
benefits.

Portland, Ore. Jan. 13.-The busi-

Stock Association opened this morn
L ing in Baker theatre. There was a
large attendance of stockmen and
the business Of the convention was
taken NJ with zest that promises
the accom- 0lishment of much work.
good portion of the morning was
devoted to livestock conditions in
the various states. short addresses
being made by members of the exec
utive committee. The feature of the
port of Secretary Charles F. Martin
The burden of the report of each
speaker who told of the conditions
in his state was that while the con-
ditions of the market and range are
not as they would like to have them,
vet the livestock industry is in good
condition Indications point to im-
provement in the future. The great
est grievance of the stockmen ap-
peared to be against the railroads,
and the general opinion was that
the interests of Of the livestock in
dustry demands the passage of
law requiring railroads to handle
livestock in train loads and make
not less than fifteen miles per hour
including stops from the point of
loading to the point of delivery.
Secretary's Report.
Secretary Charles F. Martin. in
his annual report, gave a detailed
statement as 70 what had been done
during the past year, what the stock
men desire in the future. and the
condition of the organization Sever
al new memberships had been secu-
red, but because of unfavorable con-
ditions the number was not as large
as in previous years.
The bill providing for Federal in
spection of all interstate shipments
of livestock had passed the senate
and become law. but all the other
measures pending before the last
congress had failed of passage be-
cause of the deadlock in the senate
over the Panama canal and state
hood bills. The bill providing for
classified census of livestock had
been re-introduced. as had the Anti
Shoddy bill, and the one providing
for the extension of the time limit
for unloading of stock in transit west
of the one hundredth meridian. and
that recurring transportation COM

mum of twenty miles per hour.

said. while not opposed to the pro-
lection of the forests. have decid-
ed and pronounced objection to the

Missed IL Train That Was "a Day Late.
When the Switz City division of the
Illinois Central was built it was known
as the Indiana and Illinois Southern.
1t was a narrow gauge road the road
bed was bad the engines and cars
were built on a miniature scale, and,
while there was a schedule, had train
been on time the fact would have been
regarded as a miracle. The road was
known as the "Try- Weakly"
On one occasion Josiah Mcconnell
desired to go to Swift City from Sulli-
van, but missed the train by a minute
or two. The clock 1t the station show
ed that the train had left Sullivan five
minutes ahead OF time, and Mcconnell
sued the railroad company for $1,000
damages. On trial of the case 1t
was proved beyond a doubt that the
train Mcconnell missed should have
gone the day before and was really
twenty three hours and fifty-five min
utes late.--Indianapol News.

The Silver Penny.

According to high authority the sill
yer penny Of King Alfred is the earli-
est authentic Saxon coin that can be
traced with certainty to the London
mint. Athelstan, about 928, was the
first British king to enact regulations
for the government of the mint, but
the coinage was debased by the mint
ers during the several reigns following.
To such an extent was this FRAUD car

tuted mint at Winchester in 112o, but
the English do not seem to have been
proficient ip the art of coming, for
Stow relates that in the reign OF Ed

his reign took place the first gold coin
age in that country. In the following
reigns money was again debased, and
it became so bad that Queen Elizabeth

She Kept Her Word.

A funny story is told concerning
Catherine of Berain, Welsh woman,
who was known as the mother Of
Wales, because she founded so many
families. "She was first married to
John Salisbury of Lleweni and be-
came the mother of Sir John Salus-
bury, who was born with two thumbs
to each hand and was noted for his
prodigious strength. At the funeral OF
her husband, Sir Richard Clough
gave her his arm. Outside the church
yard stood Maurice Wynn Of Gwydir
awaiting a decent opportunity of pro-
posing to her. AS she issued from the
gate he did this. Very sorry replied
Catherine, but I have just accepted
Sir Richard Clough. Should I survive
him, 1 will marry YOU She was as
good as her word and married yet q
fourth before she died in 1891"

Property Found ON Criminals.


~The question as to what final dis
position is made of money and iewelry
found in the possession OF criminals
was frequently asked me when l was
On the force two years ago" said an
eX-captain of the New York police
force. CAS- a rule, everything found
upon an arrested criminal which obvi-
ously is not his lawful property is held
in trust, as it were, by the police for
possible claimants. If no claimants
turn up the property is returned to the
criminal on being released from his
term of imprisonment, provided the
commissioner of police is perfectly sat
isfied that the property actually does
belong to him.
eff the commissioner has reasons to
think otherwise, however the articles,
often valuable, are held indefinitely or
until it is certain that they will never
be claimed by their rightful owners,
when the stuff is finally disposed of
and the proceeds handed over to bene-
fit one or another Of the various police
funds.
"There are certain things, however,
which the police never return to those
on whom they have been found, such
as burglariZing tools, firearms, gam
bling devices, begging letters-any-
thing in fact, that might be used by
criminals again in their nefarious oc-
equations"
