Coates?" asked Girard, in his usual
brusque tones.
"Just what thee pleases to give,

was surprised to see that gentle Ian

Live Stock Market.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 6, 1907.- Cattle receipts are heavy this week, 78,000 head, including 5000 calves. The market has held up good, es- pecially on she stuff, which re- mains steady, and killing steers are also nearly steady, while stock CTS and killers have declined around 25c for the week, and calves are 25 to soc lower. There Is no accumu- lation in the yards of any kind, and the week will close with the market in healthy state. A heavy demand from eastern butchers all the week has sustained the market on killing stuff, and also indicates a promising outlook for the balance of the month. Supplies from Colo rado have been small, a few cows at $3.10 to $375, and stock steers from eastern Colorado at $3.75 to $4.25. New Mexico stockers sold at $3.60, and supplies of Texas cows and heifers were liberal, COWS mainly at $2.90 to 1925, heifers s3.15 to $365, heavy calves $4.00I to $500, yeals $5.25 to $6.25; good

weight western killing steers are worth h.25 to sl75. Shipments to the country this week will az. gregate more than 1,00C carloads.
 Sheep receipts are below 30.000 head this week, and not enough for the needs of the trade. The mark. ct is 15 to 25c higher for the week, and closing at the best point, with Utah lambs selling last two days at S7.50. Colorado ewes brought S5.65 today, having been fed a lit- tie, range ewes $5.34, feeding lambs $6.90 to $700, yearlings $47O to $500. Feeding yearlings have sold this week at $5.7O to $5 SO, practically the same figures at which the killing ends were sold. The situation appears to be excel lent, as large orders are held for stuff for the country, which keeps killer buyers we'll in line.

Improvement of Range Conditions,

Further evidence of the govern. ment's concern over the improve ment of range conditions in the national forests is shown in the announcement just made that stock owners will be furnished free of charge supplies of vaccine for the treatment of stock afflicted with black leg, tuberculosis and other animal diseases. This ar rangement has been made by the forest service with Dr. A. D. Mel yin, chief of the bureau of animal industry.
 Stockmen holding permits for grazing in the national forests will now be furnished with an effective means of combating without cost all of the most dangerous diseases to which stock is subject. The vaccine can be obtained simply by applying to the supervisor of the forest upon which the stock is grazed, who will at once forward the approved request to the bureau of animal industry, where it will be fl He'd. Full directions will be furnished for its use.
 The national forest service and the bureau of animal industry are working hard in an endeavor to eradicate or diminish the common forms of stock disease found on the. western ranges, and their efforts are meeting with much success. It is anticipated that large number of stockmen will avail themselves of this latest offer of assistance, and as result, the loss of stock will be greatly reduced, and range conditions improved.

Board Of Trade.

The regular weekly meeting of
 the Board of Trade was held at the
 board rooms on Tuesday evening,
 a large number of directors being then present. Directors Curtis and O'Keefe, who have been ab- sent for some weeks past, are again in their regular places, and attend ing to business.
 The town improvements com mittee reported that arrangements had been made by the town coun- cil to pave with cement the side walks on both sides of Crawford street, extending from the arroya to residence of E. Titcomb, and that the contract had been let to Adolphus Noon for construction, under agreement that they should be completed by January 18th. The committee also reported that further Improvements in the same line on other streets would proba- ply be taken up later.
 The Arizona representative of the Los Angeles Times having ac- ceded to the request of the board for cooperation for securing more extended notice for this section in the columns of the Times, the board instructed the secretary to take the matter up, and it is prob able that such action will result in much beneficial mention of Nogal- es and Santa Cruz county in the columns of the Times, which of late has had little of interest on this part of Arizona in its columns devoted to nearby news.
 The board authorized the treasur- CT to draw on the treasury for $500 in favor of the fire company, to cancel the debt assumed by the board in connection with the re- cent purchase of an up-to-date chemical engine.
 MT. C. .. chapman, one O1 the department heads in the forestry service in Washington, and Mir. D. D. Bronson, chief inspector of the forestry service in this district, with headquarters at Albuquerque, were present in company with Su- pervisor Wilson of the local for restry office, and on invitation of the board, the three gentlemen gave considerable valuable inform ation concerning forest projects. MT. Wilson announced that the grazing fee would be lowered the coming year to thirty cents. 4 vote of thanks was given the visit ors for their attendance and in- formation.

The new scows will be ready for

CHANGES PLEA
Sawdust Case POstponed-.-
Gas Co. Pleads Guilty
and Is Fined

The case of the State of Idaho vs..
0. c. Lipps, Indian agent at Lapwai.
charged with allowing sawdust from
the government sawmill on Craig
mountain to be washed into Big Can
yon creek, was continued until Sep
tember II in Justice OF the Peace Man
ning's court this morning.
The defense this morning took the
position that the mill was in charge of
a government employe who was labor
ing under the civil service act and was
therefore responsible for the sawdust
reaching the creek and that Mr.. Lipps
could not be held.
When the case was first brought in
to court Agent Lipps contended that
the state had no authority in the case
because the mill was located on ar
Indian reserve, but decision of the
attorney general Of Idaho stated tho
state officials had full authority on al
lands within the state.
The Lewiston Gas company thi.
morning entered plea of guilty to q
charge OF allowing deleterious matte,
to escape into the Clearwater rive
and paid a fine of $25 and costs
amounting in all to $30.25.
The specific charge against the gai
company was that of allowing it's Goa
tar well at the gas works to overflow
into a drain which had an outlet int
the river and which at times became
offensive to residents along the rivei
below the gas plant.
Fishermen also entered complaint.
against the company on the grounds
! that the tar was injurious to fish and
it was under this feature of the statute
the prosecution was made.
