KANSAS CITY MARKETS
A Review of Prices and Conditions of
 the Past Week.

Kansas City Oct. 16.-The washouts and floods in the southwest kept cat tie receipts down the last two weeks and prices advanced 10 to 20 cents on all kinds of cattle. Not as many range cattle were here as usual, but those shippers lucky enough to be on the market with stock went home pleased. About fifty loads of mountain cattle were here, the steers, I07O to 1250 lbs, selling at s3.25@3.75; 825 to 1000 fb feed CTS at $3.25@3.5O; horned feeders around S3.0003.25. cows S25003.O5, spayed heif- CTS $3.25 and some old Mexicos, 1000 lbs, at S3.25. These prices represented an advance of from strong to 20 cents higher. Panhandle cattle, on account of the floods, were scarce, but a good many plains cattle were here and sold at satisfactory prices. The run yester- day was liberal at 21,OOO head, market on cows and country kinds of cattle strong, beef steers 10 cents lower. Some SS2 ID feeders, horned, from southeast ern Colorado, sold at $3.25 and 300 to $50 ID cows from the same locality sold at S2.60, fairly good. Trade is active. al- though there is a heavy run at all the markets. and it begins to look as if we had seen the lowest prices of the pres ent season.
 Sheep receipts are unchanged from last week, and are about the same as they have been for several weeks past. Lambs lost 10 to 15 cents last week, and were little lower yesterday. The quality of the western stuff now com ing is good, and sales are made without any haggling. Whatsthe killers do not take is easily placed with country buy CTS, as the demand for the feeders is holding up as we'll as ever The SUD- ply last week was more than 4a .OOO head. Wethers and yearlings sell to the killers at $S.4G to s3.S5. fat ewes at S3.O0q3.30, Glib lambs sold at $4. .71 and 6S to 75 fb lambs bring up to $500 which was the best price. Country buy CTS take the wethers and yearlings a; $S-85@3.65, and stock ewes bring $2. .75@ S.5O Feeders in this territory have had two very successful seasons, which ac- counts for the very good demand this fall' and for the good prices for coun- try stuff, about 25 to 50 cents higher than last fall.

 the transports had been withdrawn

 reinforcements took up positions on the
 hills to the north of the river. An other thunderstorm broke shortly af- ter noon. flooding streams and roads into seas. and by evening the main Russian force had withdrawn across the Shal1he river. The Japanese shells were dropping within a short 1 distance of the river on the left

The Russians held tcnaciously to their positions.
 Early in the day the Japanese com menced to work around the Russian left and succeeded in dropping few shells on the road and in the villages where the transports and reserves were gathered. The Japanese had the range of the road and village perfect ly. They compelled the men and wagons to take to the fields This smelling did little damage beyond dis concerting the men and horses. Addi- tiOnal guns were sent forward to pro tcct the left, while the batteries with drew across the plains to she hills on
 the north side This gave the Jap l anese possession of a high hill on the south side, from which they shellef the valley through which the Russians had advanced during the evening.

A heavy storm on Oc- tober 14 added to the misery of the troops. There was great depression, but stolid tenacity among the men.
 The plain occupied by the retiring Russians was covered with bursting shrapnel. The gunners shoveled shells into the brooches of the guns as they shovel coal into a furnace.
 Two divisional commanders have lost their lchief staff officers, one Of them being killed, and many command ing officers met death heroically lead ing their regiments. Shrapnel fell near General Kuropatkin. He showed desperate energy, and even in the darkest hour remained hopeful
 Neither side can stand many such contests, the ferOcity of which w1s frightful. The Russians are now fighting as a matter of pride: Man churia is forgotten. They feel that they cannot stop; that they must win one battle.

Tokio. Oct. 16.-There is a longing for peace in the most appalling traS- edy which is now under enactment in MaIuchuria. Both armies have fought ferociously for week, and desperate fighting still continues. It is probable that the death roll will be largely in creased before the final shot is fired.
