SIOUX CITY LIVESTOCK

The. run Of cattle at Sioux City has
been fairly liberal, and with close to
5000 head for the six days there were
800 more. than last week. The bulk Of
the marketing was received on the
three opening days of the week, with
M6onday's receipts running close to
has been fairly satisfactory, and while
the opening prices were hardly as good
as the high point Of last week, values
later were well maintained. The good
heavy feeders were in demand, and the
best Of. the offerings sold at $3.65@4.
The: fair to good, 800 to 9OO-lb, were
the kind on which the market was not
quite up to the average of last week 3
a dime lower. The enormous corn CROP
in this section of the country, with
plenty of roughage, has made big de-
mand for heavy cattle for winter feed
ing, and the prospects are good for an
active trade in this line the coming
week. The condition Of the market rel
urally depend on the liberality Of the
receipts. g- .aI
The fat cattle supply comprised
butcher stock principally, and the pack
ers have taken care Of the receipts in
good shape. The market for the week
showed an advance of 15@25c. Range
cows figured IN the trade and were
eagerly bought up at $2.50@3. In
steers, very few corn-fed lots have
been received. but the packers want
this class of cattle badly, and the few
sales made were at the full advance of
the week, from $450@5.60. Range
the week and sold from $$9.a5 to $3.50.
Light marketing Of hogs has had the
effect Of maintaining values, but the
tendency is downward, especially on the
heavy packing hogs. Buyers are only
waiting their opportunity to break
prices on days Of liberal receipts.
Heavy hogs are selling too high for the
packers use, and before the season
opens severe breaks may be looked for.
At present good butchers are selling
at $5.1O@515, with good mixed hogs
at $5@5.05, and the heavy packing
sows around $4.9O@4.95. The packers
claim that they will expect to buy
their droves Of hogs around the $3.50
mark before the close Of the year. 4

that much of the eastern equipment is
engaged in transporting perishable
freight, such as fruits and other similar
commodities.

COLLEGE AFFAIRS ITO DISCUSS MILK
Discussed Before Board
of Agriculture Yes
terday.

The time of the Board of Agricul-
ture yesterday was devoted to the
hearing of reports from the presi-
dent and members of the faculty of
the Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege. President Geo. T. Winston first
read his report, and after it's preSen-
tation he made q lengthy talk in eX-
PLANTATION of the conditions existing at
the college, and the necessity for
financial relief.
There are not sufficient funds in
the college treasury to meet the actual
and inevitable current expenses of the
college, and this shortage runs into
the thousands of dollars-possibly
$4,000. Besides this shortage, nearly
every professor made recommended
lions that would impel an increased
expenditure, and it was represented
that not a single department in the
college was receiving enough money
to make the best out of it. Some of
the instructors desired increased sala-
ries, as we'll as augmented approprid-
tions for the advancement of their
departments.
The successor of Captain Phelps,
commandment, has not been elected,
and the names of the candidates for
this place have not been made known.
A special committee was appointed
by the board to meet last night for
the purpose of considering the finan-
cial situation of the college; to exam
inc the budget, and to make the best
adjustment possible with the amount
of money on hand.
