Prices of Cattle Are Receding
as Result Of Heavy Ship
ments to Market
TRADE TODAY WAS SLOW
Cows and Heifers Wore Fairly Active
at Lower Average Prices-stockers
and Feeders Administrators Was
an Active Demand for Good Hogs,
but Others Were Slow.

Chicago. Aug. Disqualification many
cattle are coming to market prices
are receding, except for the better
class. Trade today was slow, and
prices, except for best, averaged 100
Is lower. Cows and heifers We're fairly
active at lower average prices. Stock
ers and feeders were rather animated.
The arrival Of big offerings Of rang
ers for the Tuesday market and only
moderate supplies on Mondays is help
ing the situation out nicely, providing
good outlet for native cattle here IN
the past few weeks, while the west
ems have experienced no worse de-
clines than would likely have been
noted had the bulk of them been here
on Monday.
Tone OF the native trade is very sat
isfactory and there is liberal outlet for
all good fat steers. Most of the arrl-
walls of fat natives in the past week
have sold to good advantage, letting
shippers out of what a few weeks ago
appeared to be a tight place for those
who had cattle contracted to be taken
late this month.
There Is nothing particularly bull
ish in the situation. however. despite
the generally good markets Of late.
and demand calls for only moderate
supply here in the next few weeks.
While the eastern and export outlet
is fairly broad and packers also buy
well, the runs Of late have been about
up to all requirements and conserVa-
tive marketing would seem neces-
sity If the present good level OF values
is to be maintained.
Hogs.
There was an active demand for good
hogs at stronger prices, but others
were slow and inclined to go lower.
Traders say owing to hot weather
interfering with shipping Of 80 to 10
pound pigs east, such should be Kept
back in the country.
Sheep.
A large percentage of today's sup
niles was range stuff, and just about
equal to demand. Sheep We're about
steady, while lambs sold steady to 10
higher.
Buyers of feeding lambs paid up to
$3.50 for something choice in that line
Yesterday. One year ago this week the
TOP price for the best fat lambs land
ed here stood 1925, and a class OF feed
ing lambs similar to those taken at
$3.50 yesterday was obtainable ~ be-
low that price. These figures are Ger
tainly indicative Of high prices for tat
lambs the coming winter. In fact, they
must be high; there will be no AVOIDING
II with the taste that the American
fnublic has developed for choice lamb
chops and the prospective neager sup

The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1905-11-01
ISAAC MASON
!. GREATLY ALTERED
MANY CHANGES MADE IN BIG
sTEAMRoAT-PluoT HOUSE
DEMOLISHED.

The failure of the government to
compel the Baltimore and Ohio Rail.
road to raise the bridge over the Mon.
ongahela river at Fairmont has forced
the steamer Isaac Mason to make y
number of changes until the sturdy olti
steamer is scarcely recognizable as
her old self. says the Morgantowr
Chronicle.
The high water few days age
made It out OF the question for the boat
III her former shape to pass under the
structure. and here is where the Yam
kee ingenuity OF the captain was
brought into play. He was bound on
getting to Fairmont, and was not go
ing to allow such little thing as that
low bridge to hinder him.
Carpenters went TO work and demol.
ished the pilot house until now all thai
is left of the very attractive wheel
house is four upright posts and tar.
paulin at the front protects the pilot
from the wind. The steersman stands
exposed to wind and rain. The tall
black smokestack OF the boat next re.
ce.ved attention. and was cut down To
suit the pilot house. The whistle
was also changed, and now instead Of
sending It's steam toward the sky, II
toots rearward. The whistle lies paral.
lei with the deck and projects over the
wheel at the rear. The alterations
have changed the appearance OF the
craft so that 1t does not look like the
Isaac Mason at all.
It is very well known fact that the
bridge at Fairmont has been bone
OF contention between the railroad
and steamboat men for some years, II
IL too low to allow the free passage of
boats and as n result Of complaint
made by the steamboat men the gov
e-nment has ordered the railroad to
raise it, but there does not seem to be

Seth Low at the Head Of an Organ,
fzation Formed to Check
Corruption.

NEW YORK. Nov. Former
Mayor Low announced that an asso.
citation with himeslf at the head, had
been formed whose object would be
to prevent corrupt practices at cleo.
tons. The failure OF the Corrupt
Practice Bill at the last session of the
legislature was great disappoint.
ment to its promoters, and recently
number of those interested have
had informal conferences with a
view of doing work all over the State
in behalf of such law. A permanent
organization has been formed which
is to be known as the Association
to Prevent Corrupt Practices at Elec-
ions."
Mr. Low is chairman of the exec.
utive committee. Both political par.
ties are to be represented on the com.
mittee.
Mr.. Low said that one of the first
things the committee intended to do
was to send out several questions to
all candidates for the legislature at
the present election with a view OF
ascertaining their attitude towards
a Corrupt Practice Act. This is all
that the association intends to do in
the present election, but Mr. Low said
to-day that it hoped to have bill
ready to present to the legislature in
January, which would be drawn at,
ter study of all existing acts in other
States.
