on the occasion. SO putting his
thought into action the marshal en-
tered the place just as the man who
had entered previous to him put down
a glass.
The bartender endeavored to break
the booze I'm the ice box but was
prevented from doing so by the mar.
shal who took charge of everything.
A search ensued and eight bottles OF
Blue Ribbon beer were found. which
was broken on the curbing in front
of the pace. The booze and one bot
tie OF beer was saved to be used as
evidence in a case OF introduction
filed against the bartender. After de
stroying the blue ribbon the marsha
re-entered the place and took charge
of affairs. brought out the cash reg
lister. which held a small amount o.
cash and an automatic pistol. The
cash register and pistol were confis
Gated under the law.

Local Cotton Market.

The cotton market has picked up
considerably within the past few
days. but receipts are as yet light
for thi sseason of the year. The
quality ranges around middling and
low middling, while the price hangs
In the neighborhood OF IL cents
and better, with few bales selling
at l3 cents.
1t is not anticipated that any large
amount of cotton will be marketed
before the latter part OF this month
or the first of the following month.
From what can be learned cotton
is opening rapidly in certain parts

Missouri Valley times. [volume] (Missouri Valley, Iowa) 1874-1931, 1907-03-21

An exchange has this to say
with regard to Abe Reuf, Of
San Francisco: For the first
time in his career as boss, Abe
Reuf finds himself unable to
control the judgement Of judges
of courts. One Of his creatures
on the bench, said by Heney to
have been drunk at the time,
signed an order prohibiting the
trial Judge from proceeding on
some phase of the case against
Reuf, but the other courts set
aside promptly the order and
refused all the appeals made
by Reuf. His sole hope now is
in the jury that will render a
verdict and his course seems to
indicate his distrust Of ability
to control that branch Of the
judiciary. The earthquake
was not the only shake up in
San Francisco and perhaps both
have been for the good Of the
city, in q way.
