as many as the previous week. Sup
ply of natives is also running consid'
cradle below the normal for this time
Of the year. and statesmen we're able
to secure an advance last week on all
kinds, of 10 to 25 cents. Quality OF

50. 90, calves $500 to 4.50, a few light
veals up to S6,25, The general mar
ket onthe native side is steady today,
stockers and feeders stronger Pros
poets favor a heavy supply this week,
but demand is ample to take care Of
them, packers buying freely, and a
large attendance of country buyers,
partly on account OF the American
Royal show, which opens today.
There is a shortage in the supply from
Kansas and Oklahoma this fail, pre-
sumably on account of many cattle
going directly into feed lots in that
territory.

with prospects that heayies will soon
lead. Nearly 1000 head of pure bred
hogs are on exhibition at the Royal

men are paying more attention TO
hogs than heretofore, in view Of the
continued high prices.
Sheep receipts are heavy $4,000 last
week, 1900 here today. The mar
ket was firm all last week, but is
about ten lower today, although both
packers and feeders are buying freely.

kept here for over week, and after
the lawyers were all prepared to begin
the work of selecting jury, the Har-
Ian case was this morning postponed
until the next session of court by
agreement between the attorneys for
the prosecution and defense and
Judge Gill.
The well-known case was called this
morning, Judge Gill having returned
from Muskogee and resumed his place
on the bench. The prisoner, clad in
new suit, took his place in the
prisoners box, with his counsel, w.
II. Kornegay, beside him. Mr.. Korne'
gay made several motions for dis
missal objecting, as in the Neal case,
to the selection OF the jury, and on
the same grounds, but these were all
overruled.

their assignment of extra positions. Harry

the man Des Moines cracked up as the star
of this league. Jack Taylor held the
Smoky City boys safe at all times.
Mordicai Brown was compelled to take
beating Thursday because his teammates
back of him could not hit Weimer. He
pitched what would ordinarily been a
winning game.
Double headers are scheduled thick ana

between the Des Moines and Omaha teams
on the Fourth.
New York and Pittsburg were tied for
second place in the National league FRI

Chance probably knows his business, but
it looks strange to see him send in sub.

sent in to bat in the ninth made a hit.
A pretty race is on in the American
league with Philadelphia, Cleveland and
New York tied FOR first place Friday morn

scheduled to play the other Friday so some
hard games may be expected.
Considerable interest has been worked

divided as to whether Jensen, who has
