ENORMOUS DEALS

Erie and st. Paul Stocks the Lead
ers in Big Trading Of
the Day.

New York, Oct. 19.T There was a big
market for stocks again today, the
dealings during the morning being fully
I'D to the average of Monday and yes
terday. There was much confusion in
the price movement owing to the buoy
ant upshot of some of the leading spec
ulative favorites, while profit taking
was industriously carried on at other
pits.
Erie was the prominent feature, in
accordance with tips industriously circu-
lated before the opening of the stock
market. The opening transactions in
that stock showed purchases and sales
of numerous blocks of from 5000 to
1900 shares, and the8opening prices Of

during the whole Of the first hour.
Other buoyant features were st. Paul,
Reading, Southern Railway, Atchison
and Leather. In these stocks there were
long strinps Of sale recorded on the
upward in individual blocks.
Outside Of these features the promi-
nent stocks in the market moved mar
rowly and seemed to be affected by
pressure to take profits. But a number
Of minor stocks shared in the notable
strength of the leaders.
There was little actual news in cir
culation, but gossip pointed to import
ant betterments in prospect for the
Erie. and the election to the director
ate yesterday Of George F. Baker, was
much dwelt upon as Indicating the
entry into the property Of important
new interests.
The rumors Of a Northern Securities
settlement helped st. Paul, and Of an
early dividend on Reading accounted
for the movement in, that stock. United
States Steel preferred was under dis
tinct pressure and ruled below last
night. during the greater part Of the
morning.

leaders lost their effect on sentiment as
the day progressed. The weight and

greater influence and spread the DISPOSE

Portal, N. d., Oct. ia murder was
committed today about fifteen miles
southwest of this place.
James Gousby, negro, % years old,
was employed on a threshing rig, Wal
ter Gates having charge of the sepa-
rator. Some dispute arose as to the
work between Gates and Gousby, and
Gates procured shovel and struck the
negro over the head. Gousby then ran
to the boardingcar, short distance

ed back for the machine after Gates.

to run around the machine and across
the field. AS he left the shelter Of the
strawstack Gousby fred shot from

taking effect in the breast of Gates,
who fell mortally wounded.
Gousby started to run and was pur-
sued by N. 0. Henderson and his son
Nils, who had witnessed the shooting.
Gousby shot at his pursuers and Hen
head in the hope of stopping him. After
a chase of a mile he threw down his
gun, held up his hands and surrendered.
He was brought to this place and
lodged in Jail and the coroner at Minot

PREDICT RUSSIAN RETREAT
Japanese Think Movement on Russian

Toxic, Oct 19.-The Russian concen-
tration in front Of the armies of Gener-
ais Oku and Nodzu (the left and center
respectively on Monday, reported by
Field Marshal Oyama, is now thought
to indicate that General Kuropatkin is
merely seeking to protect his right and
rear in order to gain time to withdraw
his army across the Hun river, because
it is believed that it will be impossible
against the Japanese or to hold his po-
sition on the Shak-he river. The field
marshal reports that on Tuesday the
enemy seemed gradually decreasing his
force in the direction of the Japanese
army, only small detachments contin-

CATHOLIC VOTE
IN ITALY Al. URGED
Prelates Want Pope to Consider
Possible Advantage to the
Church in Balloting.

Rome, Get. 10. Several bishops Of
north Italy, including Cardinal Ferrari,
archbishop of Milan and a close friend
Of the pope, have petitioned him per-
sonally to consider whether the moment
has not arrived to allow Catholics to
participate in the general elections.
According to the petitioners, their
abstention from voting during the last
thirty-four years has brought no: ad-
vantage to the claims Of the Vatican,
while it has seriously endangered the
interests Of religion by intrustin5g
church, and they. believe that if the
Catholics are allowed to vote, if not
for real clerical candidates, at least
for conservatives, it would insure the
presence in the chamber of deputies of
q strong party capable Of preventing
the passage Of bills aimed against re-
igion.
The pope has not yet taken a deci-
sion, but he has asked for the opin-
ion Of the most authoritative cardinals.

Mormon families who, it is alleged, re-

1T It is sns said ID that several Mormons of
Star Valley have been living for years
in open violation Of the laws, but that
the fact was not generally known for
the reason that all Of the residents of
that section are Mormons and because
Gentiles seldom visit the region.
One man is said to have had five
wives, four of whom are living, and to
represent family Of sons and daugh-
ters, grandchildren and great-grand-
children numbering over eighty.
It is feared by republicans that the
arrests of Mormons at this time will re-
suit in the solid Mormon vote of Wy
oming being polled for the democrats,
and this may defeat some of the repub-
lican candidates.

BRIGHT PROSPECTS AHEAD
Shortage in ANY Staple Followed by
Higher Prices. and Shortage in
Texas Cattle m Sight.

Canyon CITY News
1t may truthfully be said that
several things combined brought
about the tumble in stock prices.
The last decline, the end of which
in the opinion Of the News we are
now reaching, began in South
Texas in the spring of 1900, and
travelled northward until prices
everywhere became affected.
Down, down went the prices of
stuff until fully one-half of cattle
values, gagged by the market
quotations prevailing at the open
ing of 1900, were wiped out. 1t
was not a loss to one stockman
and gain by another, as is some
times the case. but clean sweep
all through the cattle interests.
Both great and small suffered.
Not only was the seller at n great
" deprecated price the loser, but
the buyer was in the soup also.
And then along came drouth and
panic conditions prevailed. Many
cattle, not considered worth high
priced feed, have been allowed to
perish. MANY stockmen went out
of the breeding business altogeth-
err; Others did a lot of spaying
and nearly all glutted the markets
with she cattle of every descrip-
ton. mo money in cattle"
came to be the common talk, and
many men, large number of
them, got out of the business as
best they could. As already stot-
ed it became panic and the bot
tom fell out of the market. One
of the results of these condition is
already in sight-a shortage. A
shortage in any staple crop is al
ways followed by higher prices,
and such are already visible. In
the North beef on foot has recent
Fly advanced something like 81
per hundred pounds, aud this adj
vance, owing to the excellent con-
dition of the ranges almost every
where, is going to stay and
perhaps 60 much higher.
As predicted in this paper early
in the spring, the cattle interests
of Texas, for the season at least,
have crossed the slough of des-
pondency, and the future for sew
eral years TO come has in store for
the cattle raiser, living prices
bringing in its train, as it always
does, another era of prosperity.

INDEPENDENTS
FIGHT BEEF TRUST
National Livestock Association $500, =
900 Packery Plant VIII BE In
Operation by End of Year.

Denver, June 25.--Portland,
Ore, IS to have half million
dollar packing plant in connec-
ton with the campaign of the
Independent Packing company
against the beef trust.
This definite announcement
was made in Denver today by Of
ficers of the National Livestock
association, who will all journey
to Portland for the meeting July
o. when the preliminary arrange.
ments will be completed.
The business men of Portland
have subscribed a fund of $3.50
600 and the stockgrowers of Idaho,
Oregon and Washington have
guaranteed to furnish like
amount, insuring the immediate
building of the plant.
The favoritlsm shown members
of the beef trust by the railways
in the matter of rates is the cause
of a plant being projected at Port
land. The fattened cattle raised
in the states of Oregon, Idaho
and Washington are to he used
entirely for local and export con-
sumption with the building of the
new plant, Swift, Armour and
other firms having monopoly in
the east with their rate Of Sl.5C
hundred pounds from the Mis-
souri, river, an eflectual bar to q
western beef invasion of the east.
The Independent Packing com
pany also announces that the old
plant acquired at Kansas City
will be occupied and operating bN
the end of the year.
