DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards-The
trade here during the week just past
was more active than ii has been for
some time. Receipts We're liberal, be-
ing aboVt 1000 more than the preced-
ing week, but there was good de-
mand for everything and prices on good
cattle are 10 to 20 cents higher than
they were at the opening of the weeks
business. This was due, however, en-
tirely to local conditions as eastern
markets were all reported lower for
the week. Beef steers were scarce all
week. A few very good ones arrived
during the first few days and sold read
lily, as packers were in need of them,
but few have been here during the last
few days. Best North Park steers sold
at $4.lO, the best price paid in several
weeks, but they were choice and but
few landed above 1915 and the bulk
sold from this down to $500. Cows
were in fair supply and some very
good ones offered, but good many
were very much on the common order.
Best COWS sold at $500 and bulk of the
sales ranged from $235 to $3.50 with
medium from $3.50 down. Bulls and
veal calves were about steady for the
week. Feeder and stocker trade was
The best in weeks. Receipts were lib
eral and demand was very good. East
ern buyers were here in force and
would have taken a good many more
had they been offered. Some choice
blacks sold at $3.75. freight paid,
which was the best sale reported, and
bulk of the pretty good steers went at
1925 to $3.65 with the medium to fair
at $2.S5 to $3.25. A good trade is ex-
pected this week.
Hog receipts We're liberal, but they
were all sold readily under very good
demand. Prices note very little change
from a week ago and best hogs are
still selling around $5.25.
Receipts of sheep were again heavy
during the week, but good many were
contracted. Offerings. however, were
quite liberal and all sold as the demand
is good. Dealers have large number
of orders for feeding wethers and
would use a good many more If they
could get them here. Prices are Is to

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY.
The President Expresses His Respect
for Veterans on Both Sides.

Richmond, Va.-The President made
several addressed, one at the Capitol
square, before one Of the largest
crowds ever assembled in Virginia's
capital, another at banquet In Ma
sonic temple, where 400 of the repre-
sentatives OF the Old Dominion were
gathered about the boards; again at
the Lee monument. where he spoke to
a large number of Confederate veter-
ans, and once more at gathering of
negroes.
In his address the President said:
There was an uncle of mine. now

ever met, the man who it seemed to
me came nearest to typifying In the

Great Slaughter of Ducks.

Every duck hunter who went out to
the lakes Sunday came home with as
many ducks as he could safely carry
under the law. The slaughter was one
of the greatest known in the history of
the state, as the weather was ideal for
hunting and the game was plentiful
in all parts. One inquisitive hunter,
who had his own bag well filled,
counted over 800 ducks at the station
at Barr, when the crowd was waiting
for the train. This did not include the
kill made by the members of the Hot
Air CLUB, who came in by later train,
or of those secured by the men who
shot Upper Barr lake. The latter
usually go to their blinds in automo
biles, returning the same way. A safe
estimate of the number killed about
the Barr lakes is therefore about LOO.
AS this Is only one Of the many places
to which the Denver hunters went,
some idea may be secured of the num-
ber of duck dinners enjoyed in this
city Observation-Disclosures Republican.

Will Remove erazino Fee.

Denver.-The Republican prints the
following from Washington.-E. H..
Grubb OF Carbondale, Colorado. was
here yesterday and held long con-
ference with Secretary Wilson and
Chief Forester Pinchot regarding the
forest reserves recently established in
Colorado. Mr.. Grubb made a vigorous
protest against charging a grazing fee
on the Holy Cross reserve at this time.
He insisted that the government had
no way of knowing what the expense
of supervision of the reserve would
be, and until the reserve had been
handled for few years under the new
plan the stockmen would not know
that they were any better off than at
the present time, when they have free
access to all of this section.
Mr.. Grubb finally secured promise
from thE secretary and Chief Pinchot
that early next month an order would
be issued resembling the regulation to
charge a grazing fee on this reserve.

sTOcKMEN COMBINE.
Executive Committees Of Rival Asso-
Citations Agree to Unite.

Donver-Press ssing desire for reform
measures was responsible Saturday for
bringing the two executive committees
Of the stockmen's associations to a
basis of harmony. The success of flu
ture efforts for bringing the desired
changes about seemed to depend SO
entirely upon the consolidation, that
personal differences and conflicting
theories were laid aside for the com
mon good.
The agreement at this time is due to
the persistent efforts of President
Hagenbarth of the national association
to restore harmony. To accomplish
this he conceded everything. making
it victory for the American Stock
Growers Association. II was the only
way to bring peace, as the cattlemen
of the West refused to countenance the
packing interests on their executive
committee, so the packers had to go.
The railroad interests had been shut
out previously, and these interests will
now be dealt with from without the or
ganization, rather than within it.
Following is the full text of the
agreement, signed by the executive Of
1icers of each organization:
'First-The membership to consist
of live stock producing and maturing
Interests of the country.
"Second-The constitution and by
laws of the American Stock Growers
Association, modified so as to admit
to membership associations of live
stock producers, as well as individuals,
to be made the basis
'Third-One strong central commit
tee, appointed by the association thus
formed, to carry on the business of the
association.
"Fourth-The association to coop
crate with all allied interests through
such subcommittee as may be ap-
pointed by the executive committee,
whenever and wherever the interests
of said association and such allied in
terests are mutual.
'Fifth-The objects of the organiZa-
tion thus formed will be, to represent
the live stock interests in all matters
of general and public importance, and
to conserve the interests. protect the
rights and to redress the wrongs of
each and all of its members

Greatest Dam or Earth.

Fifteen years ago the highest dam
in existence was the Furens dam Tin
France), the total height of which was
40 feet. Since then three very much
larger dams have been built in the
United States. These are the Croton
dam in New York, the Clinton water
works dam at Boston and the water
works dam near Denver, on the South
Fork of the Platte river, says Critten-
den Marriott in November Technical
World Magazine. Each of these at
present holds the record in one re-
spect or another; the Denver dam is
the highest in the world; the Clinton
impounds the largest amount of water,
and the CrOton dam contains the larg-
est mass of masonry. But the Salt
River dam, when finished, will exceed
each of these in its own specially; it
will be higher than Denver, will ex-
coed the CrOtOn dam in masonry, and
will impCund twice as much water as
all three put together. 1t will be 27O
feet high from foundation to parapet,
will contain 100000 cubic yards of
masonry, and will impound more than
million acre-feet of water; that is,
more than enough to cover a million
acres 1900 square miles, to depth
of one foot. 1t will form a lake five
miles long and one to two miles wide,
covering an area of $4,000 acres. Its
cost, with maintenance for ten years,
will be $3,000,000 or $4,000,000.

Hudson River Tunnel.

The first tunnel to be driven under
the Hudson river between New Jersey
and New York City is nearly finished,
there still remaining about 200 feet to
be accomplished. The excavation is
driven through solid, hard rock, soft
rock, sand and silt. A second tunnel
parallel with the first is well under
way, having been begun in November,
1903. 1t Is estimated that progress will
be at the averate rate of thirty feet
per lay. This tunnel has been ad-
vanced over 1900 feet within four

recty across the street from his home

walked over to where they were and
asked permission TO play.
In scrimmage which followed he
was butted in the pit of the stomach
by one of the opposing team and fell
TO the ground, a dozen boys piling on

session of the ball, which he held. 1t

sentatives of the Cripple Creek, Victor,

September 18th, the pastoral relation between Rev.
DR.. Arthur and Spring Garden church was dis
solved: also that between Rev. w. McMiller and
the Village tnd brakes Branch churches. Licen-
ciate H. II. Cassaday was received from Concord
Presbytery and ordained an evangelist for the
Patrick county mission field. 1t was reported that
the purchase of a for that field had been
effected, and steps were taken to raise the amount
of it's cost by an apportionment thereof among the
churches of the PresbyteTy. This is most i'm
rorant matter for our success in that interesting
but difficult mission.
The Committee on ColoTed Evangelization made
a report, which approved, and the chairman,
Hon. H. G. Rice, was directed to send copy of its
recommendations to every church of the Presby-
terry.
