Nearly a thousand Excursionistsl

The excursion train from Bay
City came in yesterday morning
about half past FIVE, as advertised,
bringing in just six hundred ex-
cursionists from Bay City, Corpus
Christi and other points all along
the line. Added TO these there
were about three hundred other
excursionists who arrived BY other
trains. Over a hundred came
down on the Fordyce train Satur-
day afternoon, and large number
came by the regular through train
Saturday evening, while hundred
railroad laborers were brought i'll
on a freight train arriving about
three O'Clock Sunday morning.
In all there were between 600
and 1000 excursionists in Browns
vile between Saturday and this
morning, all coming toparticipate
in the Mexican celebration and
to witness the bullfght in Mata-
moros.
The excursion train left last
night about ten o'clock, its eleven
coaches being crowded to their
utmost capacity. The regular pas
senger this morning also carried
out several hundred excursiouists,
there being three chair cars and
two regular day coaches filled with
passengers. The Fordyce con-
tingent left this afternoon.

Yesterday at the bull fight in
Matamoros, a small blaze was
started in some way under the seats
of the arena, and had it not been
discovered in time, terrible catas-

trembles to think of the terrible
panic that would have been created,
with nearly FIVE thousand persons
on those seats, fighting to escape
from FIRE. Fortunately, however,
the blaze was discovered just as
the seats were catching, and it was
put out before the alarm could be
oiven.

SIOUX CITY LIVESTOCK

Receipts Of cattle have been heavy
and show an increase of 5000 head
over last week. Monday opened up
with d good active trade, stockers self
ing fully as high as last weeks best
time. Bad weather set in and ham
pered the trade and there was de-
cided slump in values. which later re-
suited ina demoralized condition in the
speculator's division. Yard traders
OF cattle on hand with practically no
outlet. Prices dropped l0c and 15c on
strictly good cattle, while other grades
ruled even lower. The concessions
made by dealers attracted buyers to
the market late in the week with tie
result that there Is a very much better
clearance in the yards than was looked
for on Wednesday, last. The improve
ment in the weather will have bene-
fetal effect the coming week and pros
poets are that there will be good,
active trade on Monday next, with a
price reaction for the better.
| The fat cattle market has been sat1s-
factory and thruout the week there was
little change in values. Trade has been
active and orders from independent
packers added stimulus to the buying.
In beeves the best of the offerings sold
at $5.000$5.50, and the light steers OF
fair to good quality at $4.50@4.85.
There has been wider fuctuation in
hog prices this week, and: the. trend, as
the week advanced, was higher. Hogs
I sold at the close of the week at a range
of $50. l5@$6.25 and the bulk 8of the
sales at $6.15@6.20, which wasf fully
steady with week ago. AS compared
with last year at this time, hog prices
are $1.20 higher and it looks as If
values would be well maintained for
the near future.

AS it was of a nature affecting cotton,
rather then cereals, the grain men could
naturally take only an outside interest,
and altho they read everything bearing
upon the disclosures they were in no

Holmes is mentioned and smile and say
that he was the scapegoat; that in their
opinion some one had to stand the fire
and Holmes was the man; that if all
had been disclosed others higher up,
and possibly somewhat removed, would
have been found mixed up in the tangle.
The fact that no very severe punish

makes this seem not wholly improbable

SEEDING DURUM WHEAT

"There will undoubtedly be very
large increase in the acreage of durum
wheat this coming season, says g. B.
Gunderson, and we ought to call the
attention Of every farmer who is antici-
pating the planting of durum wheat to
the fact that he should sow at the very
least one peck to the acre more than
of any other wheat. The reason. for
this is that durum is much heavier than
fife or blue-stem, and if farmer will
take the trouble to weigh out very
small quantity of each kind, durum and
fife, say an ounce Of each, and then
count the kernels, he will find that
there are fully three kernels of fife to
two of durum; therefore, the difference
in the number of, kernels sown to the
acre should be made up by an increase
in the quantity sown. The United
States department of agriculture adj
vised, when the durum wheat was first
introduced, that it should be sown thin
~, but has discovered and corrected
this mistake SINCE

: Tn the face of more restricted ship
ping demand, the average price Of hogs
is sas high as a week ago. Quality has
been good, with the proportion Of light
weights meager, while choice 221 to
240-pound averages have been plenti-
full. Recent sales have been up as high
,as, $8.527, with the bulge at $6.4o@
6 e e. !. is the general En- opinion OF
marketed in small numbers, owing to
the fact that producers realize that
they are worth more to them in the
feed lot than on the market at this
time.
Fluctuations in steer trade have been
frequent this week, but the late trend
in values ranged slightly upwards and
current quotations for most steers show
I a 10c gain over a week ago. The I'M
Sdertone Is not very healthy, however,
and slaughterers seem to be awaiting
the effect Of the coal strike on beef

scale. Best beeves offered during the

above 1915.

RAILROADS HAVE COAL

Generally speaking, the railroads in
the west have stocked about all the coal
they are likely to require before the
first of June. Practically all the large
railroads have been stocking coal as
pm emergency supply since the early
part of February, when it was known
that strike was likely to occur. Stocks
have been accumulated on the suppose
ton that if the strike occurred traffic
would continue on the present basis.
but there is likely to be falling off
in the movement of coal after April 1,
which will result in coal stocks lasting
for a much longer period than was origf-
nally expected. In this respect the
west is in excellent shape.
The Black Diamond says stocks on
the docks on the great lakes were de-
pleted to some extent during March by
the continued wintry weather and are
not as large as expected. There has
been some accumulation of coal in yes
sci bottoms at lake loading ports which
will be moved as soon as navigation
opens, about the fifth to tenth Of April,
and this will help out the supply to
some extent.
