TO BUY OFF GLOVER.
A Statement Issued m Behalf of Mrs.
 Mary Baker Eddy.

Concord, Y. H., March 3-General Frank S Streeter. legal adviser of Mrs. Eddy. issued a statement tonight replying to allegations contained in the bill of equity brought against the trustees of the Christian Science church by relatives of Mrs. Eddy. to obtain an accounting of funds. He states that she does not believe the action was taken by relatives but is a continuation of persecution.
 Streeter says her mind is unimpair- ed; that the amount of her property is grossly multiplied by rumor: that she receives no income from the church or the publication of the so- ciety; that her affairs have been man. aged by herself with the aid of Frye and the personal audit of another man. He announced that an emissary has started for South Dakota tO Of- fer George w. Glover. on behalf of Mrs Eddy. a deed of trust for an amount said to be between S100.00O and S20O.OOO. provided he makes no further demands on Mrs. Eddy.

KANSAS CITY MARKETS.
Review Of Prices and Conditions of
 the Week.

Kansas City. March 3.-The cattle market closed last week in fairly good shape. all classes making a small ad- vance for the week. The run was less than We have been having. and the supply today is again moderate al H. 900 head. Prices today are steady to strong, with cows and country grades showing the most strength. as usual. Fed steers make up a large proportion of the supply. but the aggregate Of that class is not excessive. and the supply appears to be slackening up little each week. Supply of cows and heifers are hardly equal to the de- mand. and call for country grades is strong at all times. so that the gen. eral outlook is good. from the sellers standpoint. Top fed cattle here in the last week sold at $G.OO to S6.40. bulk of corn fed steers at $460 to $5.50, cows $500 to S4.50. heifers $35O to s4S5. a few choice heifers at $4.75 to S5.25. bulls 3..OO to $4.15. calves $3-25 to S7.50. stockers $3.75 to S4.G0. feeders $4.oO to S5.15. A shipment of Idaho hay fed steers, 1000 pounds sold to go to the country late last week at S4.75. offerings from the range country have been scarce lately
 Sheep receipts have been liberal for the past week. and the run is good to- day. at 15.0O0 head. Prices declined 10 10 2O cents last week and the mar ket is 10 lower. but trade is active. and the demand equal to the supply. Re ceipts have been falling short of those Of this period last year. and killers have had difficulty in securing enough for economical shipment of their pro- duct in view of the heavy slaughter Of cattle and hogs this month. Good lambs are selling at $7.O5 to SIPS. one lot Of good to choice lambs at $7.3e. similar to the lambs shipped in by Mir. FuIkerson last week, from growers. weighing S1 to S4 pounds and selling at S735 to S7.5O on different days. Lambs weighing 65 pounds or less are selling at $6.65 to s7.OO. Yearlings sell at $6.25 to $6.40. wethers $5.25 to s5.50. ewes S4.GO 10 $5.1O. A few feeding lambs sold readily last week at $6.25 to S6.75.
