SUGAR IS DECLINING.
Large Crop and Low Price for Cane
Cited as Cause.

Cited as cause.
In the face of the canning and fruit
preserving seasons approach the price
of sugar is steadily declining, and
during the last six weeks has dropped
90 cents a hundred weight.
This is Numerically opposed to the
traditional custom Of sugar during the
canning season, aud is attributed by
the dealers to the large crop of sugar
cane, making the price of raw sugar
unusually low at this season. Whcle-
salers are quoting sugar f. o. b. at 3
$40 cents a pound for rough goods,
and cents for graduated. rulverized
ana cube sugar.
Receipts have been rather heavy
during the week, and the prospects
are for further decline before an adj.
vance is recorded Sales are reported
heavy as the fruit season is beginning,
and the large canning factories are
buying in quantities, preparing for
the rush in the canning industry
later.
The domestic demand is strong, and
is an evidence that housewives are
taking advantage of the unusual con-
ditions

The local ice plant resumed work
Friday after being idle for several
days. and the local dealers are being

was closed so that some much needed
repairs could be made. and during the
past week the city has been supplied
with ice from Winchester. The con-

the plant is again in operation. as
many claim that the Winchester ice

manufactured here. The ice shipped
here from Winchester was not packed
right and when it arrived here the
entire car was one solid cake and had
to be broken in any manner before it

Kansas City. Mo-, Sept. 4.-More
than $4,000 cattle came in last week,
the largest run of the season, but this
week has made a good start today,
with $4,000 head. Corn fed steers and
the best grass steers made some ad-
vance last week, but the other grades
of cattle lost 10 to 20 cents. Trade
was active all week, both from pack
,ers and country buyers. Seven hund-
red cars of stockers and feeders were
taken to the country, and the packers
bought nearly 10000 cattle. During
August, this year, country buyers TOOK
5000 cattle to the country, against
5000 same week last year, while the
hackers here slaughtered 155 600 cat
tie. as compared with $4,000 in Aug
-ust. 1904. Demand from the country
is increasing every week, n with the
packers killing as many as they are,

Der should be absorbed without n
congestion, or much injury to prices.

He was rdiding on the top Of a

Andrews across the face as the train
was running at considerable speed,
He was knocked down flat on the car.
and his face was seriously cut by the
wire.
Andrews was stunned by the fall,
and was not able to communicate with
the other trainmen until the train
pulled into the Los Angeles yards.
when his condition was discovered.
and he was removed 10 a hospital. He
will be laid up for several days.
