KANSAS CITY MARKETS.

Kansas City, March Hast week was the best week for cattle sellers in more than a month, steers advancing 25 to 40 cents, <cows 15 to 25 cents, stockers and feeders 10 to 15 cents. Light receipts was the cause of the advance, together with some improve ment in the outlet for the meat. The favorable conditions at the end of the week were expected to draw out big run today. but the supply is not excess sive at any point. 14000 head here, and the market steady to 10 cents lower on steers, steady on other kinds. Another shipment of the Lockhart steers was here today, the big end of the shipment at $6.20, against s5.90 two weeks ago. Other beef steers from, Colorado today brought $500 but they were lacking in quality. Colorado and western COWS range from $3.e5 to $500. and stockers and feeders brought s4.35 to $5.25. Texas and New Mexico were lightly represented, cows at s2.75 to s475. stockers at $3.5O to $500. calves up to $7.O0. Traders believe that good supplies will be moderate for a while. and that prices will remain good. if they do not improve, in the next few weeks.
 The sheep market is in good shape. as the run of 41,OO0 head here last week was nicely handled, sheep and yearlings closing strong for the week, and lambs around steady. Supply is 10000 head here today. sheep and yearlings 10 to 15 cents higher. lambs n cantS Iovvar COlOradO vearIirps recahed $7.OO today, wethers s5.s5, ewes $5.35. all top figures for this sea son. and the top price for lambs, $40. was also paid for q shipment from Colorado. Other lambs today sold to killers at s7O5 to $7.35. and sheep and yeralings within 10 to 50 cents of above quotations on tops. Packers ad- init there is a good outlet for the meat which, together with light sup plies of live animals at eastern mar kets. makes the prospects for March markets promising.

sacks, shows a slight increase ove the total for the corresponding 1907- | season, 1,O0S,916 sacks. The shipment
 of clean rice both for the month an, 1 the six months of the season. S,S0 | and 1,075,6lS pockets, show slight in l creases over the figures for the two preceding seasons.
 The total lumber receipts at Bostor during January aggregated 21,731.O1: feet, compared with 14,4S1,14S feet re. ported for January, 1908. Coastwist receipts of southern pine at New Yorl during the month, 33,067,27S feet, were
 about 30 per cent in excess of January
 1908, figures. January arrivals of red
 wood at California points, 20,541, ,965
 feet, likewise show a considerable in-
 crease over the corresponding 1908 fig
 ures of 14,526,23 feet, while the figures
 for pine and fir, 97,233,036 feet, also
 present a favorable showing when
 compared with like 1908 figures of S4,-
 70S, 107 feet. January shipments of
 yellow pine from eight southern and
 southwestern states aggregated 349,-
 330,276 feet, compared with POS, ,7Sg. .6S2 and BOG, 266, ,2SS feet shipped during Jan
 uary, 1908 and 1907.
 The shipments during the month of anthracite coal from eastern producing territory-5, ,1S3,345 gross tons-were considerably below the shipments re ported for the last three months of the preceding year, as well as the January, 1908. total of 5,61S,339 tons. Shipments of bituminous coal over eight leading eastern coal carrying roads,. .4O4 .745 tons-were decidedly lower than during the preceding month. though heavier than during January. 1908. The month ly shipments of coke over the same lines-1. S39,7S1 tons-were one-third larger than the January, 1908. figures, and show, moreover, a continuous inn provement over the figures for the pre- ceding months The estimated produc- tion of coke at Connellsville, including the lower district, during the five weeks ending January 30-1.312,S79 net tons-compares equally favorably with the production during the correspond ing 1908 period. The January output of pig iron, ,SO0.S67 gross tons-was larger than for any month since No vember, 1907.
 Building operations in ninety cities. as disclosed by the aggregate value of building permits granted during the month, $s4S,363.173. present a 96.7 per cent increase over the corresponding 1908 figures. though the total for Jan uary is below the total for the preced ing month.
 Reports from thirty-one car service associations and demurrage bureaus in various parts of the country show a total of 2.226,S39 freight cars handled, as against 1, 954,15O and 2,330,34 cars handled during January, 1908 and 1907. The most recent bulletin of the Ameri- can Railway association shows a total of 3O1,571 and of 301.441 idle cars. un- der date of February 3 and IT, re- spectively. as against 332.513 idle cars )n January of the current year and 322.513 idle cars on February 19. 1908. a condition almost as un- as that which existed dur ng the early months of the preceding year.

INDUSTRIAL OUTLOOK
 ONE OF UNCERTAINTY
Great Doubt About Steel, Copper and Anthracite.

New York, March 7.-The irregular and uncertain movements of the\ stock market the past week appear to be a reflection of uniformed speculative sen timent Dealings were small and largely in the hands of professional operators. The developments of the copper trade have been hard to read and obscurity concerning them serves to keep alive the effect of steel trade developments.
 Reports of some large sales of re- fined copper at prices above the recent average and the promise of larger transactions are circulated in a dem- onstrative manner The labor outlook is clouded by preparations making for a struggle in the anthracite region. There is a rumor of a shutdown in the mines on April 1.

Next Ten Days VIII Not Be Filled With Excitement
 ALL INTEREST CEhTERS
In a Few Bills In the Cover nor's Hands--ProbabiIity of Final Action by the Assem- ply Today On Woman's Local Option Bill.

The legislature at o'clock this afternoon will enter upon its last stage, and. in the nature of things. its least exciting, though there will be two or three points of interest this week. The action of the gov ernOr on the railroad commission bill will have to be taken, and though no word has come from the executive chamber on the subject, the general expectation is that it will be ap- proved.
 Though the ten days which he has for the consideration of the seg- regation and the educational qualifi- cations bills will not expire this week. some of the members believe that they will be disposed of within the next six days, and along with them the county examiner bill, \ which reached him on Saturday.
 It is not thought that anything more will be heard of the bill for the creation of Smith county out of the division of Maricopa. It was sur missed at the outset that that meas- ure was put in for a terrifying effect, as something to trade upon. If so. there was an utter failure of it's pur-
 
 interest. It provoked no anxiety on this side of the river and not the slightest enthusiasm on the other. Neither of these emotions would have been stirred even if there had been a probability of the passage of the bill.
 The Doan bill allowing women tax payers to vote at local option elec- tions. will come up in the assembly this afternoon for third reading. That is, it is ready for that stage. There is considerable doubt as to the action of the house on it, but there is a possibility of its passage, though it is generally believed that it would never emerge from the council; possibly, never from council committee.
 Mir Bourne's bill TOY the re-enact- ment of the public examiner law is thought to have gone as far as it will go. While there is a strong sentiment in the house in favor of it's passage, as there was against the re- peal Of the law creating that office, it is realized that the sentiment against it in the council is un- changed. All partisan legislation in payment of election grudges has either been enacted or has been put up to the governor, so that there is a little time left for constructive legislation, but when one comes to think of it, very little is needed. Some reconstructive legislation would, of course, be a good thing, but nobody is hoping for that.
 The segregation bill, which was
Arizona republican., 1909-03-08

held up in the enrolling and engross- ing committee of the assembly on Saturday, will almost certainly be re- leased this afternoon and allowed to go to the governor
 It, has been found advisable, if not necessary, to amend the bill dividing Graham county, which has been in the hands of the governor for a week It has been found that no inteIligible provision is made for the transfer of cases belonging to the eastern part of the county which may be pending in-the courts when the division be- comes effective, to the jurisdiction of the new county.
 In the hurry of fixing the name of Greenlee on the new county, that name was inserted so often And in places where Graham was evidently that the bill really provides for the removal of all pending cases to Greenlee.

 AGITATION Is to Be Resumed In theEytra-
 ordinary Session TERRITORIES
There is No Constitutional Reason Why This Matter May Not Be Considered and Moreover There Will Be Plenty of Time.

Washington, March 7.-When con- gress meets on March Ia to consider tariff revision, there will be no con stitutional restrictions upon the na- ture of the business that may be transacted. It is generally conceded that at least two months will be re- .quired to conclude the consideration 'Of all the schedules involved. Each branch will have to remain in session while the other is considering the bill and the advisability of entering upon other legislation is being considered. Advocates of statehood for Arizona and New Mexico are restless, and there may be an attempt made to take this subject up.
 Some way to provide for the thir- teenth census also may have to be made.

BALKAN PEACE
 FOR 4 MONTH When SePVia's Reply to Aus
 trid'S Note is Due 4 PEACEFUL DOC LENT
Two Reasons and Very Strong Ones, Why Russia Is Not In a Position to Un- dertake a War In Behalf of the Servians.

Berlin, 8, March 7.-As the Austro- Hungarian government has set March 31 as the limit within which it ex- poets Servia's reply, it is believed that no striking developments are likely before that time. Austria's note is described as conciliatory and not in the nature of an ultimatum.
 It appears to be the conviction that Russia is in no position to hazard a war in behalf of Servia, as it would likely involve Russian Poland rising against her. This would mean vast expenditures, as a result of which there would be national bankruptcy. France also would be unwilling to consent to Russia risking a war, as so many millions of French capital are invested in Russia. C
