Another Advance In the Hog

and $6.O5 Today
THE MARKET RULED STRONG

sIow-sheep and Lambs Lower.

Chicago. July 1S.-Six dollars were
paid here early this morning for hogs
and later there were sales at6.O5. Sales
today were largely at 5.75@5.95, prices
ruling tsrong for the better class and
about SOLO higher.
Shipping demand was good again
yesterday, eastern orders being I'M
perative. Last week purchases on this
account numbered 41,90S, against
20,594 during the same week of 1904.
The east is evidently out of hogs.
The average weight Of hogs received
at Chicago last week was 226 pounds.
against 225 pounds the previous week
and also year ago. There is feat
ure about this weight that is calcu-
lated to deceive, however, as neither
the excessively weighty nor the light
kinds are coming In profusfon.
Toward the close the market was
very sticky on packing stuff and quite
a sprfnkling of it was on hand. Ar
mour was reluctant to bid more than
$50 outside the choice grades and
Swift did not want straight sows at
$3.50.
Pigs were scarce and in demand. If
good they sold in with light hogs, and
there was no kick about them.
Cattle.
Monday the market was 10000
lower, with beef steers selling at 5000
425 for. poorest, to 5.40@5.80 for
choice, with bulk of sales at 4.40@5.40.
Today's market was slow one at the
Monday decline Cows and heifers
have had their full share in the de-
cline. Stockers and feeders are very
slow.
Exporters were very slow operators
througout the day yesterday and their
purchases in the early hours were of
slim volume. The whole trade, in fact,
did not get fairly under way before
IL O'clock, all business interests. hold
ing off with bids until cattle had
shrunk out some of the big fills made
soon after their arrival. Extremely
hot weather rendered many Of the Of
ferings in poor selling shape, and their
appearance was against them. The
run stood 1900 larger than arrivals
one week ago, and compared with only
1856 year ago, when the packing
strike greatly interfered with the
trade.
After last weeks slumping market
excessive supplies, such as came toady,
were entirely uncalled for and, on the
other hand the weak condition of trade
in closing days last week warranted
only a slim volume of stock being
marketed The big opehing run has
more than equaled buyers needs, and
unless the consumptive demand shows
material improvement in the next few
days traders say very small offerings
will likely prove the only means OF
holding prices at the present low
line.
Sheep.
There has been great decline in
prices, both sheep and lambs. There
was a good demand for breeding ewes
at $500 per hundred pouncs. Idaho

No DEATHS FROM LockJAw.
Precautions Of Authorities Prevent
Fatalities at Pittsburg.

Pittsburg, Pa, July 1s.-For the first
time in years there have been no
deaths from lockjaw due to the Fourth
of July celebration in this vicinity
Last year from fifteen to twenty deaths
occurred. The precautions taken by the
bureau Of health and the strict police
regulations against blank cartridge pis-
tolls and high explosive fireworks are
responsible for the absence of !ockjaw
and fatalities. Tetanus usually devel-
ops in nine days, and as thirteen days
have passed without a case the author
tiles believe there will be none.

The Horse Market.

There was not much to say for the
horse trade Monday. Run was light
and buying force just as light. In fact,
the market, in accord with weather,
was inanimate when compared with
spirited trade of last week, when all
the regular buyers were on hand, and
others who had not been here in years
before broke into the game and bought
literally. Receipts were estimated at
400. but it is probable that the off,
cial figures will show less. Last week
1881 head arrived and were disposed
of easily at good prices. From tone of
trade receipts for this week should bo
cut down to 1000 at most, and even
then cut in prices will be necessary
to work off stocks. While the market
is considered dull it is as good as can
be expected and will probably continue
dull for the rest of the summer.

For Representative Government.

Emperor Nicholas at st. Petersburg
Russia, Friday, March 3, signed re-
script containing his majesty's decree
to give elected representatives of the
people an opportunity to express their
views in the preparation Of the laws
of the empire with promise of some
thing more in the future. 1t was
announced that the refusal to yield
to the workmen's ultimatum demand
ing release of their fellows arrested
since January %, open meetings, and
free publication of the proceedings Of
the Schidlovski Cancellation commits
sion was due to the fact that the
government realized that the forces
behind the workmen were political
agitators, The car appealed to the
people to rally round the throne and
defend it against an internal enemy
The signing of the document is said
to have closed a dramatic scene in
which the emperor made an impas-
stoned speech to his ministers. Il am
willing" the emperor said, "to shed
my blood for the good of my people"
