ly received support from philantnrcpic
sources. has not a penny Of endow-
ment

amount $4,000 has already been SUBJ
scribed here and there remains only $110,-
900 to be raised. This 1t is proposed to
secure by November 30 and the cam

a vigor and determination indicative of
achievement.
Among those who have alyready given
literally to the instit ltion are s. M. In
man whose subscription IS 100000 and
Robert ]. Lowry who gives s25.OO0 Those
subscriptions. however, are included in
the amount already raised and the S110,-

one of them committees have gone out
on a hunting expedition. huge clock

bidding for the offerings was without
spirit. The offerings included several
lots of desirable draft animals, and
many sales were made at $1S5@207 80,
with fancy 1900 pound expressers top
ping the days market at $215. Medium
weight horses were bought in by local
and outside operators at $500 100.
Small southern chunks cleared at $7J
@150.
Mondays official receipts of cattle
were $3.50. This is the second larg-
est supply ever received in one day,
the record being 4012S on November
16 last year. 1t looks as If live stock
were getting Jared loose in the coun-
try. The market is so badly swamped
with common and medium cattle that II
no more were received this week there
would be more than enough to fill the
demand. The prospects are discourag-
ing, however, for it is evident that a
big run is in sight. There is good
chance for the weeks receipts of cat
tie reaching a new record. Shippers
coming in from Iowa say that muddy
feed lots. the high price of corn and
the difficulty in getting it out of the
field are the causes which are pushing
many immature cattle to market.
