PAINTING BERTHA ESCAPES.
Gets Away From the Insane hospital
at Council Bluffs.

Council Bluffs Sept. T.-"Fainting
bertha Liebecke on Thursday night
succeeded in making her escape from
ST. Bernards hospital, where she was
committed two weeks ago by the local
commissioners on insanity after being
adiudged insane. Friday afternoon
she was again taken Into custody by
the police but released on her tear
full request to be allowed to return TO
her mother and on the condition thae
she should at once cross the river TO
Omaha. She was ordered to be COM
mitted to the state insane asylum at
Clarinda, but was sent to st. Demands
pending the determination OF her ap-
peal from the action Of the commits
sioners. This appeal was to have been
heard by Judge Macy in district court
next week, but Bertha evidently pre-
ferred to run no chances and decided
to get away if possible.
A few days ago she made an attempt
to escape, but was prevented by the
sisters of the hospital
In her appeal Bertha's attorney con-
tends that the young woman is not OF
unsound mind, and not a fit subject for
an asylum He holds that Bertha's
lapses from the straight and upright
path are moral rather than mental, and
that she should be dealt with as a
criminal and not as a lunatjc. Her
case. he insists. Is one of moral degen-
eracy, rather than insanity.

Were Texans, But the Offer

PLAIN GRASS GRADES HIGHER
Small Marketing of Western Range
Stock Disappointment to the Buy
ers - A Big Run Expected Next
Week - Hogs Ruled 5 Cents Higher
and Packers Bought Freely.

Chicago, Sept. 17-The bulk of to-
offerings on sale went steady and clos
ing prices for strictly good to choice
steers grades and particularly heavy
steers were 10@15 lower, while common
and plain corn fed and grass cattle rul-
ed 10 higher, these having met with
strong demand from local buyers, who
had been disappointed in small market
ing of western range stock. A big run
is expected next week.
Receipts in live days this week total
57,9S7, against 1859 a week ago, S4,-
11i3 a year ago and 63,7S2 two years ago.
The increased receipts this week, COM
pared with arrivals last week, have
found quite satisfactory sale, tho the
market has ruled very uneven turnout
the week, and while prices for strictly
choice steers, and also those offerings
which have lately gone below $5.25,
rule steady with a week ago, the heavy
export and shipping grades which have
gone at 1925 a. SIS show largely 10
cents decline from a week ago, with
some lots 15 cents lower. On the other
hand the small arrivals Of western
range cattle this week, have helped
common and plain native steers, anu
prices for such grades rule largely 10
cents higher than n week ago, While
some common steers at S4.15m4.4O We're

Hogs.
Local packers and eastern shippers
were active buyers and prices ruled
higher than yesterday, the top OF GAO

Sheep.
The trade had a good tone and ''''"-
es were steady at about yesterday S
values.
After displaying a weak spot, re-
newed demand for breeding sheep has
re-appeared Any old thing in the eve
line, possessing grinders, is salable at
prices far above what breeders would
be willing to pay, if this outlet did not
exist.
Somebody, evidently. is alive to the
fact that there is money in sheep, and,
as large number OF these are going
into eastern states, a larger lamb crop
may be expected from that quarter. 81

HANCOCK COUNTY FAIR
Big Crowd and Many Good Attractions
Make 1t Success.

Special to IlmeS-RepubllcaH
Britt, Sept. 1.-THE Hancock county
fair which opened on Tuesday and
ended on Friday night has been one
of the most successful ever held. The
livestock exhibits were exceptionally
fine and the attractions far beyond
previous years. Since the soclety's
organization, years ago, Hancock coun-
ty has never one failed to hold its an
nual fair.
The crowd Thursday was enormous
because of Governor Cummins' speech,
which took place at 1920 m. He
held his large audience at the fair
grounds from start to finish. and was
continually applauded.
The ball game between Klemme and
Wooden, resulted in a score of to
in favor of Klemme. The game be-
tween Garner and Britt resulted in q
score of 10 to 4, in favor of Britt

Dun's Review.


New York, Sept. 17-R. G. Dun &
Company's weekly review Of trade to-
day says:
Industrial and commercial progress
is slow, but none the less definite. Low
temperature and some injury to crops
provided the only adverse influence of
the week and this has little effect upon
manufacturers and traders, who have
started to prepare for increased bust
ness. Buyers of dry goods. clothing
and millinery are notably active in
placing orders, and other staple lines
also feel the effect of gradually ex-
panding confidence. Many mills and
furnaces have resumed because of new
orders or adjustment of wage scales,
and prices are steadier in most cases.
with general advance in footwear.
1t is not yet possible to report any
material expansion in the demand for
steel products, yet the business is un-
doubtedly coming forward, several de-
partments preparing for activity in a
manner that denotes great confidence
in the future.
Evidence that buyers are becoming
apprehensive regarding the scarcity of
cotton goods tends to encourage the
feeling that the mills will soon be
called upon for liberal shipments. In
the wooden division there was decided
Improvement in dress goods, and fair
duplicate orders were received in 9TH
err lines, Footwear manufacturers are
still receiving orders for late fall ship
ments. and plants are in full operation,
as 3. rule. while producers are securing
slightly higher prices.

in the United States, against 2lS last
year and 81 in Canada, compared with
10 year ago.

OIL NEAR IOWA LINE

Large Quantity.
Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Clarinda, Sept. 17.---Word from Bur-
lington Junction, Mo-, says oil has been
struck at that place. A special to a
local paper says:
There is no longer any doubt about
the Mary Frances having struck Oil,
and so far as can be determined at
this time it is of the finest quality.
Men who are supposed to know what
oil is say it is very fine quality of
parafine oil that will bring a much
higher price on the market than the
oil being produced IN the Kansas field.
It is dark brown, almost black, color,
burns flercely and of a heavy quality
that suggests a good lubricant. and at
that this field will be developed as
it's prospects deserve. This Oil was
discovered on the water being dipped
out of the we'll last Saturday, and has
been increasing in quantity ever since.
The force has been busy this week IN
roaming out the hole and lowering
the casing to get 1T on solld Ioun-
dation, when the water will be bailed
out and then the quantity the well
produces can be quickly determined.
Oil has been reported to have been
discovered so many times that our
people have got over the wild excite
ment that the first reports produced,
but that the conviction that the Mary
Frances is in oil has settled down on
the public mind is apparent on all
sides. Several persons have bottles
of the stuff to exhibit that they dipped
UP themselves out of the water as 1T
was bailed out, and persons who are
interested enough to do SO can go
there and help themselves and see
enough to convince them that we have
at last an oil we'll within a mile of the
postoffice of the most promising char
,acter"

The Horse Market.

Receipts for the week will approxi-
mate a gain of 400 over the arrivals re-
ported last week. The heavy gain in
consignments has not congested trade,
as the general attendance of buyers
has been proportionately increased and
commission dealers found it easier to
consummate a clearance at more salts

The stimulus of fall demand appreci-
ably affected the trade and all business

right of-way has been purchased. The
road will run from Chicago thru Will
Kendall, La Sale, Stark, Knox and
Warren counties. The western division
has not been decided upon, altho the

five minutes. Mr.. Pascoe has been

HOPING FOR RECORDERS
Conservatism Prevails In Gem
eral Trade But Good Corn
Will Help
A HOPEFUL FEELING EVIDENT
Orders For All Lines OF Merchandise
Are Placed With Caution But
Wholesalers Believe That Good Corn
Crop Will Stimulate Additional Ord
ers and are Preparing Accordingly.

New York, Sept IL. Bradstreet's
today says:
While there is diverse movements In
domestic and foreign trade, the ten-
dency as a whole Is for Improvement
along conservative lines. Buoyancy in
the stock market possibly largely
manipulated, and the strength of cer-
cal prices are factors stimulating to
trade, but the advance of the fall sea-
lions and the prospects of good re-
turns to the agricultural interests, de-
spite the heavy shortage in the wheat
yield, are all elements tending to en-
courage buying.
The feeling in many lines is that as
the season advances and the corn crop
situation becomes clearer the need or
additional recorders will result In a
fair volume of trading, comparing bet
ter with fall business a year ago than
did last springs trade with the COR
responding period of 1908. Railway
earnings reflect a heavy traffic, roads
already reporting indicating gain OF
3.4 per cent over last August, and this
best ever recorded for that month.
kilograms to Bradstreet's indicate y
fair expansion in western trade. tho
buying from the corn growing section
is still cautious.
At the east jobbing trade in dry
goods has improved at Boston, ana
some rush orders for shoes are noted,
but shipments as whole, for the year
are s per cent behind a year ago. De-
mand for dry goods at New York Is
hardly up to seasonable expectations
as yet, tho a good business Is doing.
Higher prices for spring weight wooi-
ems are announced, based upon the
strength of the raw material.
Wheat, including flour exports, for
the week ending September Is, aggre-
gate 935,S34 bushels, against 10000
this week last year. From Jury 1 to
date the exports aggregate 15,396,117
bushels. against 33,164.251 last year.
