Live Stock Market.

KANSAS CRY, July "A, 1905
Cattle receipts exceeded $4,000
head this week, including 5000
calves. This is the heaviest week
this year, but still falls 10000 be-
low the corresponding week last
year. The market has held up on
corn led cattle, but grass steers
are 80 to 40 cents lower than a
week ago, grass cows 10 to Is low
er. Light runs Monday and Tues
day gave week a good start, but
killers claim their needs are linn
tied account of the hot weather.
and they refuse to buv freely ex-
cept at reduction. Some l900lb.
Kansas grazed westerns reached
500 yesterday, and medium class
westerns brought S4.55 the same
kind OF cattle that a week ago sold
at 1925, and at $3.50 two weeks
ago, indicating the downward trend
OF prices on grass steers. The best
fed steers here this week brought
s. 30, and four loads sold at 800
here today. Cows were higher the
first OF the week, but have lost all
the advance secured then. grass
cows now selling at 81. 30 to $3.50,
Gamers down to $1.75. A few
grass heifers brought $3.50 yester-
day. Calves have been higher this
week, tops selling at 1925 yester-
day, but they are little lower to-
day. The stocker and feeder trade
Is improving each week, and prices
are about steady with a week ago,
after being 10 to % higher Monday
and Tuesday. Stockers range from
$500 to $500, feeders $4.15 to
$3.50.
The mutton market went down
fast the first of this week, but the
situation is much better last two
days, account of smaller receipts.
The volume OF receipts cuts more
figure now in the market than us
ual, for while the conditions are
healthy, 1t requires careful nurs-
ing to keep them so. Spring lambs
sold at $6.25 today, wethers $3.50.
and ewes $4.25. This stock was
grazed in Kansas, but is western
bred. No western stuff direct from
the range country is here today,
and bulk of the supply for

the tide in the British Isles as it now
is flowing, the speaker sees an element
of danger that is not necessarily seri-

Little Cora Graham Who Is
Dying EIoquentIy Ap-
peaIs to Parents.
A VICTIM OF GASOLINE.
AS SHE ATTEMPTED TO LIGHT A
STOVE, FLAMES REACHED HER
CLOTHING AND SOON ENvEL-
oPED HER BODY.

Running about the yard Of her home
road, little Cora Graham, aged 10
years, fought desperately TO extin-
guish her burning clothing, which had
ignited while she had attempted to
light a gasoline stove. Her five year
old brother, Omer, coolly ran after her
throwing water on the flames from a
bucket he had presence of mind
enough to pick up.
This method of extinguishing the
blazing clothing was not successful
pain, jumped into a watering trough,
while her sister Marie pumped water
on her. The fire was at length ex-
tinguished but not until the child had
been fatally burned
Little Omer states that this after
noon the mother, Mrs. David Graham,
left the house with neighbor woman.
SAt lSll wi Ill CHdI sc VI Iue younger
children, Marie, Omer, Teddy and a
year old baby. Cora had been given
strict orders not to start the fire in
the gasoline stove However, she at
tempted to do so and the flames spurt-
ing from the stove burner instantly
ignited her clothing. Cora immediate
ly ran out onto the lawn. Had she
not done so it is probable that the
house would have burned down.
Mrs. Tom Porter. a neighbor, who
lives nearby. saw the child running
about the lawn with her clothing
aflame, and she was the first one to
I reach the house. Mrs Porter took
little Cora from the watering trough
and at once summoned assistance. DR..
Colburn was called upon to care for the
injured child: He states that her re-
covery is almost impossible. From
her breast clear to her ankles the flesh
iS almost charred.
| The injured girl shows the greatest
nerve. She is conscious and suffers
eXcruciating pains, but she does not
cry out under her agony. When her
mother and father arrived little Cora
said to them Il hope you will both be

RECOMMENDS THAT MAYOR JS-
SUE PROCLAMATION AND ASKS

men feels inclined TO favor the propo-
sition of the women that a day be set
apart for cleaning up purposes and ev-
cry householder in the city take part.
Yard cleaning day" as it has been
called, is expected to be very much of
ar event Mrs. F. W. Stephens and
Mrs. NJ. F. Johnston appeared before
the Commercial club and asked for the
support of that body The object Of the
innovations was explained and met
with such hearty approval that the
following resolution was adopted:
Whereas. The ladies of the After
math society. inaugurated a movement
to clean up the yards of the city. and
that the first day of May be set apart
for this purpose. and that during the
hours from three TO six o'clock in the
afternoon all business houses close.
factories suspend. and schools be dis
missed for this purpose. Believing
that this movement is very commend
able one, as it will not only add to the
beauty of the city. but will be highly
beneficial from a sanitary standpoint,
to every citizen of Richmond, there
fore be it
Resolved, That the Commercial club

Says Sunday Conditions in
Richmond Are Now Better
Than in Any Other Indiana
City That He Knows Of.
HE BELIEVES IN SUNDAY
BASEBALL AS RECREATION
Says Hundreds of Men Are
Benefited by Their Outing,
And Furthermore, Sport
Keeps Many at Home.

Prosecutor Wilfred JeSSup is not in
sympathy with the movement of the
members of the local Minister'S associ-
alton, to force various business con-
Germs which make practice of keep
ing open on Sundays to close on the
Sabbath. and to prohibit Sunday base
Lall and other sports. He has so in
formed representatives of the Minis
ters' association. SO it is probable that
nothing will come of the movement.
Prosecutor Jessup stated to the mem-
bers of the association that he had
talked with several local butchers and
had learned from them that they kept
their places Of business open on Sun
day mornings because there were many
poor families in the city who could not
afford to keep ice at their homes and
that it was necessary for them to pur-
chase the meat they used on Sunday
mornings.
He also stated that he saw no harm
in cigar stores keeping open, or in the
operation of confectionery stores on
Sundays. These places were conduct
ed he stated, in an orderly manner and
afforded some place for people to con-
gregate and pass away the idle hours.
The prosecutor stated that he be-
lieved Sunday baseball, as conducted
in Richmond. was a benefit. rather
than an evil to the community. The
I ball parks here, he stated. were so To-
Gated that the noise made by the fans
Gid not disturb the peace of the city,
and besides. he argued. by permitting
large number of people who would 9th
erwise go to adjoining cities and spend
their money, were kept at home.
by attending baseball here on Sun
Gays, local young men see a clean,
healthy game, and they return to their
homes benefited by their outing. Many
, of these young men, if Sunday baseball
was not permitted here, would go to
Cincinnati. Dayton, indianapolis or
other nearby cities, would dissipate
/ TO excess and return to their work
Monday morning in an unfit cOndi-
ton" was the statement made by Pros
ccutor Jessup this morning and he
said he made a similar one to the min
listers.
Prosecutor Jessup says that the Sab
bath is observed better in Richmond
than in any other Indiana city. The
conditions that exist here on Sundays
are he said. satisfactory, and that it
would be unwise to alter them.

MOB OF THOUSANDS
CHARGED THROUGH STREET
Rioting Continues at Chester,

Chester, Pa, April 1.-THE ap-

today so maddened striking street car
employees that rioting broke out with
more violence than yesterday. A mob
of three thousand men and women
charged through the streets and the
destruction of property is estimated
heavy. A few cars are being run but
the people are afraid to ride.

The insurance of $35Oo,OOO is divided
among eighty companies.
Little Suffering Reported.
There was comparatively little suf-
Practically no one was without shelter
during the night. The relief work was
taken up by those who handled the
Massachusetts fund for the San Fran
cisco sufferers. Early in the day
Mayor Beck issued an appeal to the
country, but after a conference with
Acting governor Eben S. Draper the
appeal was amended SO as TO include
only the state. Announcement was
made that $1,000 had been raised by
subscriptions in Boston before noon.
In addition the city of Chelsea appro-
priated $1,000 and resolution for
100000 from the state was introduced
in the house Of representatives
Many nearby cities announced the
starting Of subscription papers and
the city governments of others will
hold special meetings TO take action. A
message from President Roosevelt ex-
pressed sympathy and volunteered the
services Of the army and navy.
In the mean time the local organiza-
tions. such as the Associated Charities
and Salvation Army were perfecting
their work and they professed ability
to find temporary quarters for all the
homeless.
State Militia on Guard.
The burned district was patrolled by
the state militia. The work of the
guard. however, consisted mostly in
keeping people from venturing TOO near
the standing walls.
There was little property to be
guarded. so thoroughly had the area
been swept by the flames. In fact.
the underwriters who visited the ruins
saw no prospect of salvage of any de-
