CONTESTS IN RICHMOND.

The contest in the Democratic primaries IN
Richmond Borough tomorrow for Leadership
between Nicholas Muller the present leader.
and Charles ]. Mccormack. the present sheriff
Of Richmond County. promises TO be the hottest
contest on Staten Island for many years.
Both factions are working hard and each side
is confident OF victory. The McCormack fac
tiOns have been holding public meetings nightly
during the last week. which have been largely
attended. while the Muller men have been busy
making a silent house TO house canvass among
the voters. The fact that the primaries ara be-
ing held on the Assembly District plan instead
OF election district plan is believed TO DO IN
favor Of the Muller faction.
The Muller organization has indorsed the ad-
ministratiCn Of Mayor Mcclellan.
McCormack's platform is:
Election district primaries.
DELEGATES elected az said primarie shall N

THE MARKETS.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Dee. ].
There has been a pretty good
supply OF guarantees here lately,
including ~ loads today. The
market has been a shade lower in
the last week, especially on COWS,
which are IS to 20 cents below a
week ago, including a decline OF 5
to 10 cents today. Several trains
OF COWS from San Angelo and Big
Springs, Texas, have been here
Saturday and today, the COWS SELL
ing at sass to S2.6S, top COWS
here in the last few days at 81. 90,
and top steers today $500. Some
fed steers sold at 81. so to $500
last week, but nothing very good
has been included. Grass steers
sell at $40 to S4.2s, veals around
$3.50. heavy calves $500 to 81 90.
The COW market in the native di-
vision has been lower during the
last week, but the decline is at
tributed mainly to the failing quail
ity OF the offerings, rather than to
weakness in the market. Demand
for stockers and feeders holds up
very we'll, market stronger on them
today, at about the seasons best
prices and demand generally great
rr than the supply. Beef steers
from the range are selling firm, but
run from Colorado and Southwest
will soon be ended.
The hog market is changing con-
'tantly, but without any decided
tendency, either up or down. To-
days market is S to 10 higher,
greatest advance on the medium to |

VAST SPREAD OF TELEPHONES
Increased in United States In Two Years
Over 100000.

Over 100000.
Over a million more telephones were
in use in the United States 1T the be-
ginning of 1905 than two years before,
according to report just issued by the
Census Office. In round numbers there
were 2,315, 900 in the country 1T the end
of 1902 and 100000 at the beginning
Of 1905. That this county is far
ahead Of Europe is told by figures
showing Europe's entire equipment
January 1, 1905, to have been less than
100000, less than half the number in
the United States.
There were over 5,000,O00O00 phone
calls in 1902, of which nearly 121, ,0O0,-
900 were "long distance" Ohio led in
the number of messages, although there
were more 'long-distance'' messages
over Pennsylvania telephones than in
any other State. San Francisco, with
telephone for each nine persons, was
the best equipped city.
The report speaks Of the effect Of
the telephone in reducing or checking
the amount Of telegraph business. 1t
says the rates Of the two systems for
medium distances do not differ great
ly, and for very long distances they are
overwhelmingly in favor Of the te,e-
graph, if the message be taken as 4
unit. But, if the number of words eX-
changed be taken into account. as wa
as the time required for getting into
communication, the telegraph is at
disadvantage.
