Chicago Livestock
Market Receipts

AT this time one year ago mar
keting Of the western range cattle
was being conducted at a fast clip.
Arrivals for August, 1908, totaled
1000, the heaviest for that month
since 1895. Last month-August
the run was only 10000. For
the season to date last year the to.
tai had reached 122, 700, against
76, 900 for this year thus far. Thus
it can be discerned that marketing
of western rangers, in volume, is
fully one month late. than this
time one year ago, when over one
half Of the seasons receipts had
been sent in from South Dakota
and full one-half from both Wyom-
ing and Montana, although bulk
were still back in North Dakota.
From Clay, Robinson q Go. s best
and latest advices, they CLEAN that
thus far this season both Wyoming
and South Dakota have marketed
not more than one-third of their
seasons supply; Montana not to ex-
ceed 400 loads and North Dakota
just a few train loads. The 1905
receipts were. 292, 200, the smallest
yearly total since 1903. From all
indications there will be a 25 pei

son, and we would not be surprised
if the years receipts proved as
small, or smaller, than in 1903
when the supply at 400, 900 was the
smallest since 1901.
Assuming that the seasons ru1
is going to show rs per cent de

supplies for 1909 will fall 1900

Among the important omissions
from our news columns last week,
due to lack Of space, was the mar
riage Of MIR. A. f. Jetfers and

years on ranch in the vicinity of
Cedar creek. The writer has
known Miss Costello but q short
time, yet our immpresslon be-
speaks for the lady as one Of high
morals and friendship winning
ways, both pleasing features OF
which are evidenced through her
popularity in social circles here,
and her friends are numbered by
the score.
"Je9,' the title by which the
groom is more fanilliarly known,
has been resident of Wibaux fol
the past two years, during which
time he has filed the position o.
agent for the Minnesota & Wes
tern Grain Co., and later become
the senior partner in the Jeffers (
Lynch Co., dealing in gasoline
breaking outfits, and at the pres
ent time he is imployed as agen
for the Farmers Elevator Co
Mr.. Jetfers, during his residence
in Wibaux has won an enyiable
reputation as an honorable an(
energetic young man, and on'
that is always sure to make good.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jeffers were a
home to their friends in this cit,
the first of the week, and hav'
taken up their residence, tempo
rarily, at the Pickering hotel

A Chicago clubwoman is seeking to reform criminals by providing them with new suits of clothes. It is a scheme that merits the attention of sociologists. It is well known that tattered old clothes destroy self respect. and make man feel like an outcast. New clothes might have a very important influence in restoring his courage and enabling him to look the world in the face again.

 FRICTION.
 c. H. Chapman, superintendent of teh Bridgeport Division of the Con- ,necticut Company, in speaking this morning of the differences between the company's inspectors and the of fcers of the traffic squad of the police department, said that it was not the idea of the company to do anything, or to permit anything to be done that will create friction between the po- lice and the inspectors. He thought that such differences as have occurred were more matter of the personal equation as between an officer and particular inspector than anything else.
 The question of the supremacy of the police in moving traffic at Main street and Fairfield avenue came up last night at the meeting of the board of police commissioners, with the re- suit that President George B. Hill and Supt Eugene Birmingham will form ulate rules to guide and assist the traffic officers. Commissioner Thom- as Coughlin said that under a recent decision or the supreme court IT clear ly appears that the police are su- preme in their control of the move ment of traffic in the streets. Commis- sioner William H. Kershaw thought there are too many inspectors sta- toned at Main street and Fairfield av- enue and that the business done there would be expedited if some of them were taken away. Commissioner James J. Hurley expressed the belief that the board lacked jurisdiction in the mat ter of driving away the inspectors. He was quite certain, however, that the inspectors ought not to interfere with the police.
 It appears that from time to time, the traffic officer has ordered a trol- ley car to stop, and an inspector has ordered it to move and that the mo- torman in charge of the car has obeyed the inspector. The motorman who does this hereafter will proba- ply be arrested.
