further declined during the session under
offerings at parity for American account

CATTLE-There were only a few cars OF
cattle reported in today and not enough
to make market. As usual on a Satur-
day the demand was very light and there
was little doing. The total receipts for
the week were the heaviest that they have
over the heavy rum of week ago and all
Strictly good corn5fed and range beef
cattle have been in good demand all the
week. The supply of that kind of cattle
has not been very large, Notwithstanding
heavy. The result was that the market was
In very good condition and at the close of
the week is fully as high as any time of
late. The best corh-teds sold up to s6 IS
during the week, with the best range steers
at $50. The common TO medium grades
OF beef steers, owing TO the plentiful sup
ply, have shown more or less weakness
and have in spots sold somewhat lower.
Cows and heiferS were very free sellers
at the beginning of the week, with the
market, II anything, strong. In fact, all
kinds sold strong up until Wednesday,
took turn downward. At the close OF the
week good cows are probably around 1Oc
lower, with the heaviest declines on such
as have been selling around 81 .50Q3OO and
they are in many cases lbQ2oc lower than
the first of the week. Considering the very
largo runs the market has been upon the
whole in fair condition.
The best feeders have been sought after
all the week and have commanded good
prices as ever. The light and inferior
grades, on the other hand. have sold some
lower under the influence OF the very heavy
considering the large receipts the market
as whole has been fully as good as could

Mr.. Pruit Don't Want to Be Mayor.
A. Pruit, of the Joyce-Pruit Com
pany who has been prominently men
toned as a candidate for nomination
on the democratic ticket for Mayor
was seen today by a representative
of the Record and asked the follow
ing: "Mr. Pruit, your many friends
here seem to think that you are the
most logical candidate for Mayor, and
it seems that the preference accord
ing to current rumor is largely in IA
vor of your being nominated, unless
Mayor Hinkle will come out for re-
election" He replied, 81 could not
entertain for one moment the thought
that I would make a good mayor,
my time all day and part of my nights
is taken up in my business and l
would not have any time to devote to
the Office. 1 am in favor of the re-
election of Mayor Hinkle and the pre-
sent Board, or the majority of the

SITUATION GRAVE
France VIII Terminate the Private
Negotiations and Appeal to the
Judgment of the World Before an
Open Conference.

Paris, Feb. 20.-Germany's rejec-
ton of Frances proposal at Algeciras
that the proposed Moroccan police
system shall be French and Spanish
has given renewed gravity to the
Franco-German situation. 1t is offici-
ally announced that Germany's action
leaves France no course but to termi-
nate private negotiations and appeal
to the judgment of the world before
an open conference. This decision
suspends a meeting between M. Re
voil, head of the French Mission and
Her Won Radowitz Chief of the Ger
man delegation at which they have
been seeking to find accord. But fail
ure to agree promises to result in a
prolonged crisis in which each side
maintains the position it took before
the open conference. 1t is expected
that the strained situation will have
the effect of renewing alarmist war
reports and of arousing public appre-
hension.

DEPosIToRs CASH
GOING BY DEFAULT.

Denver Savings Bank Receiver Try
ing to Save Money.
From Denver Post, Feb. 15
Unless capital is found to complete
the plant of the Citizens Gas, Light
Heat and Power Company at Roswell
N. M, the depositors of the Denver
Savings Bank will lose $4,000. The
chances of depositors preventing this
loss were lessened last evening when
the town council of Roswell passed
an ordinance granting franchise for
system of gas works to H. S. Farms
worth. This proposition will be sub
mitted to the voters of the town and
will probably carry. If by that time
the Citizens system shall not have
been placed upon a financial founda-
ton the bank depositors will lose
this asset.
The company is an Oklahoma one
and was given a franchise some time
ago. 1t borrowed $4,000 from the
Denver Savings Bank, giving as secur
ity $4,000 of its bonds, About $780,
600 in bonds are still in the comp.
any's treasury The gas plant is part
ly completed. 1t will require from
SIS, 900 to $4,000 to place in active
operation, and it is this sum that Re-
ceiver Stevick has been endeavoring
to raise
eff some one gets the franchise
from us and gives us a reasonable
return for our loan,' said Mr.. Ste
wick today, "then matters would look
brighter. Farnsworth has an oil gas
plant in view, while ours is a coal
plant. He has told me he would not
build a plant if we decided to go
ahead. But if we did not, then he
will proceed.
'T do not like the idea of the bank
going into the gas business, as 1t
would mean speculating with the de-
positors moneys. Of course, if we can
not complete the plant already there,
the depositors will lose the $4,000
the bank loaned"
Roswell is one of the most thriving
communities in the territory and cap
.ital is going there daily. G. w. Tenn
pie, DIR. j. N. Chipley, c. L. Allen and
Lee A. Reynolds, all of Denver, have
applied to the Roswell council for a
franchise for system of water-works
and this will probably be granted,
las the town as yet has no protection
against fire, excepting by using wat
er from the bitches.
