SHEEP-Ihere was fairly liberal run
of sheep this morning, about hfty-nve cars
mately 1900 head; this is an average run
for the day, but Is about 1000 larger than
that of the same day one year ago. Part
of the stun was late In getting In and on
account OF the fact that the stock which
was already in being Of a poor sort buyers
were unwilling to do much of anything
until the late sheep got In, thinking some
OF II might be good, choice stun. Hence
the market opened slow and lower IN most
cases, and generally speaking the trade was
dull and embarrassing.
The supply of fat sheep was small again
this morning and was generally not or a
very good quality with the supply OF lambs
was quite limited, there being hardly
enough in sight to make test OF the
market. Buyers were In a rather bearish
mood today and were out with the evident
intention of buying fat stun lower owing
TO the inferior quality of most OF the sheep
on the common stun, but the more choice
stun sold at just about steady prices.
The trade on feeders was decidedly slow
and draggy, and there was but small
number of country buyers in attendance.
The quality of most of the stun was OF
common class and was mostly rather in
| terior stuff Feeder lambs are selling In
the neighDorhood of 20d30c lower than last
week. Good, choice feeders sold for the
most part at what were just about steady
prices.

do contrario los artfculos 48 y so del
mismo C6digo, en- otra ley aprobada
cuatro dfas despues, 8 ser el 10 de
Mario de 1904.
Tai como Sc venfan prestando las
hanzas en- caso de apelacion, antes de
promulgarze la ley referida, los fla
dores solo eran responsables de la
presentation del acusado al ser reque-
rido por Ia Corte, y de que este regre-

Despues de la reforma aprobada,
los Tfibunales entienden que, 81 en- la
apelaci6n Sc declnra culpable al acu-
sado, los fadores responder de las
multas impuestas y costas causadas;
no admitiendose que ell sentenci ado,
81 es insolvente, pague unas y otras
en- carcel como Sc venfan practicando.
Esto equivale & dictar fallos sin
apelaci6n; pues todo aquel que no ten
ga recursos propios para responder
de multas y costas, no encontra quien
le ffe y tendra que cumplir la pena
impuesta en- primera instancia, haya
sido no dictada legal equitativa-
mente.
Esta es una arma terrible que Sc
pone en- manos de los Jueces, los cua-
les pueden agravar & su antojo las pe-

fallo que 90 dicte,
seguramente que las C&maras al
aprobar esas reformas, tuvieron en-
