CATTLE MARKET CONTINUES
 FIRM

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Dec. 15- There was a very good run of range cattle here Monday, but not a great many since. The market has not changed much on this kind of cattle in the last week, except that stockers and feeders are selling a little higher. Country grades of cattle have advanc- ed to 15 cents each week for the last three weeks. Total cattle receipts have been heavy for the last ten days 60.000 last week, and 43,00o so far this week, but the situation is eE- couraging, and the receipts have been taken care of without any decline, ex- eept on certain grades of fed steers, and only temporary loss it is believ- ed on these. Feeders are generally confident regarding the future market, and the price of corn has declined a few cents per bushel in the last week or two at country feeding points gen orally, which accounts for the strong inquiry for stockers and feeders. Pan handle and Colorado stockers have sold mainly at $40 to $3.65 this week, a few New Mexico feeders at $3.20 tc $40, some heavy Texas steers 1140ib that had been fed some corn sold at s4, and Colorado grass killing steers at $3.75 to $3.S5. Southwestern cows sold up to $2.65, canners $2 to $2.35. Colorado cows, $2.6O to $3.1O. Fancy Christmas cattle, high bred Herefords, shorthorns and blank cattle have sold this week at $6.25 to $7.O5, and veal calves are 50 to 75 cents higher, sell ing up to $7.25 today.
 Sheep and lambs have sold strong and active each day this week, d. though the run has been liberal. 19,oe0 for the three days. Of course, fed western stuff has made up bulk cf receipts, including a good share of year'irgs and lambs from the San Luis vall"y. Top lambs sold today al $7.5O, San Luis lambs, 66fb at $7.3O, yearlings, ssfb at s6.6O; western weth- CTS $6.1O, ewes $5.25. Bulk of sales will run 9 to 50 cents under these fig ures, but there is a quick place for de sirable stock at strong prices. A few feeding lambs have sold at $5.50 to $6 lately; goats $3.25 to $3.50.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15-The big delegation of joint statehood boomers from Oklahoma were informed today by German of Maryland, chairman of the Democratic senatorial caucus, that if the bill was divided so that it would provide only for the admission of In dian Territory and Oklahoma as ons state, there would be no antagonism to it in the senate by the Democrats, but that the senate Democrats would not support the proposal to merge New Mexico and Arizona. and unless the question was divided the bill would be imperilled. ''I do not think" said Senator German, "that an omnibus bill making two states of the four territories can pass. but a measure ad- hitting Indian Territory and Okla homa jointly would have easy sailing"

Notwithstanding this increas- ed business, the company has swelle1 its profits still more by steadily ad- vancing the price of petroleum to the consumers in the United States.
 Though the total dividends for ths years 1900 and 1901 were larger than this year, it is known that the earn ings this year were the heaviest in the history of the organization, and but for the state of the public mind as to the greed of great corporations and the lax state of morality in high fin ance, the greatest dividend in the his tory of the company would have been disbursed today.
