The Weeks Markets.

Kansas City, Mo-, July 1l-Of
course the flood was about the on
ly thing that attracted any atten-
ton at the stock yards here after
Wednesday of last week. No
stock was received after Thursday
until yesterday when a few hogs
came in. The stock yards in the
native division were in a condi-
tion to receive both cattle and
hogs all week, but the railroads
were unable to deliver it, account
of high water. The sheep pens
were under from one to two feet
of back water Friday and part of
Saturday, but the water soon ran
out of the yards when the river
started to go down. Since the
highest stage of the water, the
river has gone down 8 feet up to
noon today, which puts it back
entirely within its banks, and sew
eral feet below the danger line.
The damage to the stock yards
did not amount to anything, and
to the railroads little harm WAS
done. Two of the packing houses
were not incommoded at all and
the others are in the market today
as usual, with the exception of of
Swift e. Company, which plant
will be in operation by the middle
of the week.
1900 cattle and 1000 hogs came
in today. All the railroad lines to
the east haye been operating reg
ularly all the time and were not
affected by the high water at all.
Prices for live stock generally
were, therefore, forced into line
with other markets. The cattle
were disposed of on the basis of
last Tuesdays prices. Top price
WAS $500, but the principal ship.

Washington, December 16.-Secretary
Hay today transmitted to the American
ambassadors and ministers accredited to
the powers signatory to The Hague con-
vention for presentation to the several
foreign offices, a circular note giving
a summary OF the replies to his note or
last October. suggesting a second Hague
conference The note later will be made
public by the department.
The effect OF the note Is permanently
to record the hearty acceptance in prin-
ciple by all the powers addressed of this
governments suggestion. The fixing for
the date of this assembly Is subject
for further discussion. as Russia in her
aeceptance inserted the condition that
the conference do not convene until her
war with Japan has ended. In the reply
o. japan the state department finds a
very plausible reason that this confer
ence. In the event 1t should be called
in the life time of the present war,
shall not in its findings affect this con-
flict. So reasonable does this suggestion
appear to several neutral powers that
II Is possible that 1t may yet commend It
self to all powers, including Russia. The
conference specifically exempts from the
scope of its rules the present war and
II Is the opinion of this government, as
we'll as a number of diplomats, that
neither of the belligerents can reasonably
object to the immediate converting Of the
conference.

Washington, December 16.-Secretary
Taft and Manager Agius, apostolic dele
gate to the Philippines were in conference
today for some time. touching Philippine
affairs in which the Catholic church au-
thorites are interested. One of the matters
referred to is claims for damages for the
occupation of the church lands, and
church buildings by the forces of the
Philippine government while engaged in
suppressing the discretionary move
ments. 1t is expected that Secretary Taft
will soon submit to the house a recon-
mendation that the claims be paid.
A more important matter to the church
authorities is the controversy between
the Roman Catholic churches and the
Aglipayan church, a schism of the par
ent church in the Philippines, as to the
ownership of churches and rectories
which still remains unsettled.
An effort will be made to have this
adjusted by an order of the Philippine
commission which will give the supreme
