Morning in Bad Shape.
John Kazuke. an Italian employed
as a trackman on the Swallow Falls
extension of the Kendall railroad YVES
found in the miners shanty at the
Nethken mine, few miles north of
Oakland last Saturday morning with
his feet very badly frozen.
The man with another of his coun-
trYmen and two Americans, all of
whom are employees of the Kendall
company, had been to Oakland on
Friday where the Italians had i'm
bibed of the cup that cheers, starting
home about eight o'clock on foot. At
the Nethken mine Kazuke went into
the shanty and laid down, going to
sleep and while sleeping the frost
king nipped him. He is now at the
home of Joseph Friend, near Sang
Run, where he is being treated by
DR.. Newman, who states that he will
recover without any serious conse-
quences.

The Kendall & Deeter Lumber Co.,
have purchased half interest
in the johnson tract of timber, mid
way between Salisbury and Frost
burg, the deal having been closed on
Monday. This is the last tract of
hemlock that is left in this immedi-
ate vicinity, and it will be sawed and
placed on the market at once. The
Newman Bros, of Salisbury, own the
other half, and a mill is already in
operation on the property.-Cumber-

and that this fact is proved by his
past record. His intense interest in
the success of the constitutional
amendment is explained by these OBJ
servers as due largely to the personal
interest he feels, and the fact that it
will undoubtedly have an effect upon
his reelection to the Senate.
Many of the Democratic leaders in
both city and State profess to believe
that there has recently been a con
siderable change of sentiment in ia
vor of the DISTINGUISHING amendment,
and they contend that the moral eff
feet of the decision of the Court of
Appeals sustaining the Vandiyer
mandamus will still further change
this sentiment. The decision is ex-
pected almost any day.

sales at the close showing 10@15c adj

Continued heavy receipts caused
drop in hog prices the average being
nearly l0c lower than the previous
week, or $4.85. The week started in
with 56,055 on the opening day, which
is the largest run here since last Janu-
ary. During the two weeks Chicago
alone received 100000 and the arrivals
at both eastern and western markets
were on a large scale. The general sit
uation looks healthier than a while
back and after the holidays are over
prices ought to get better as the con-
sumptive demand for the product keeps
up wonderfully both on home and for
eign account.
Though this weeks receipts Of sheep
showed the big total Of $4,000, prices
display a gain of Csc with the price
range in force here at the close OF last
week, and buyers needs were in no way

were eagerly sought for at 15c better
values than such would have brought

A good active market may confidently
be expected the coming week if weather
900 and l,000-lb. steers sold this week
from $3.40@3.60 with the most of the
fair to good kinds at $3.00@3.35. In
yearlings $3.25@3.35 was paid for the
best with the inferior to fair light
weight steers at $2.50@3.00. Stocker
heifers found a good outlet at $4,000
2:7O. A good clearance has been made
this week. in the spectators division.
Fat cattle, RECEIPTS ran largely to
very little change but as the week ad-
vanced on limited marketing, some
strength was noticeable on the good
cows, while others showed no change.
In steers the offerings have been en-
tirely Of the warmed-up kinds that sold
to better advantage than last week. The
best of the steers sold from $4.25@4.75,
but the bulk Of the offerings ranged
from $3.40@3.85. Good butcher stock
sold from $3.O0@3.50 with the choice
up to $500. The bulk of the fair to

The marketing of hogs was liberal
and with close to $4,000 on sale the
run was about the same as last week
The market has shown a downward
tendency, but the decline has been grad.
ual and with hogs selling at $4.70@4.8C
prices are about a nickel lower than
last week 8 close.
The demand for sheep at this point
is brisk and the offerings arriving this
week have sold at good strong prices
compared with other points. Packers
want sheen for S1auphter and have beer
paying prices that would attract ship
pers to this market. While receipts
have not been heavy the increased mar
keting shows that shippers were salts

700, yearlings $5.50@6.O0, wethers $500
@5.5O, and ewes $4.00@5!0O.

Journal to be still held intact for the
account Of the syndicate, none of it
having been distributed to date. This
is contrary to the impression which
has existed in brokerage offices, where
it was supposed that the gradual liqui-
dation Of the syndicate stock had been
responsible for the failure of these Sc
curities to participate in the general up

the harvest. Presumably the knowl-
edge that these blocks of securities,
amounting to $10,679,57 par value Of
the preferred B and $15,041, 647 Of the
common, were overhanging the market
has had much the same effect.
The two syndicates were extended for

the company's stocks have not reached
the prices at which they sold short

gained their earlier high level, while

people, and they never went to church. Once,
however, during a revival the family was pre-

services had begun, and they had scarce

the first hymn, reading it somewhat thus:
