The KANSAS CITY MARKET
Reported for the News by a Special
Correspondent.

Kansas City Stock Yards, March IL,
le0e. Outside VI the moderate increase
Of 7COO cattle last week over rtceet
weeks, cattle feeders have remained So
rene and confident, thanks to which
condition OF mind there has been no big
break in prices due to heavy runs drawn
out by two weeks OF continued sharply
higher prices. Ordinarily, such an up
turn in the market would bring out from
cover a much larger run than has been
the case this time, and the prices would
go down quickly, but at this time, the
opinion prevails that receipts will be
moderate for at least six weeks ahead,
and prices as good or better are the ex-
pectstion OF majority Of feeders. The
market on steers declined 20 to 30 cents
last week from the high level OF Tues.
day last, when large number of cattle
sold at 1915 to 81 10. Cows and heifers
held more nearly steady, and stockers
and feeders steady to shade lower for
the week The run today is 10000
head, market steady to 10 lower on
steers, COWS and heifers about steady,
country grades finn. Quality 10 steers
is lacking today, top steers at s6.40 to
$685., bulk OF steers 1915 to 1925, COWS
800 to 1926, heifers s4.00 to 1920.
bulls 81 90 to S4.S5, calves 81 90 to a. so,
stockers S4.00 to $5.2 5, feeders "a. rs to
1915, one lot OF llO3 lbs feeders today
at IS, 10. AS rule, packers are operat-
ing on close basis, but demand from
Eastern killers is good.
| The hog run was liberal last week at
| 1000 head, about of the same volume
as corresponding week year ago.
Buyers for Eastern killers lent ANNA
ton to the demand, and forced packers
into greater activity, the net result for
the week being an advance OF 20 to %
cents in prices. Run is $1,000 head to-
day, market s to 10 lower, heavy hogs
81 IS to 90 70 u medium weights s6 so
1910, lights 1925 1856, pigs s4.75 to
1915. Interviews with packers indicate
that the East is bare OF hogs. which
should insure good trade with killers
there at this market, and give strength
to the situation for some time ahead.
Sheep and lambs run along without
much change in price, supply fairly
good at 4l,000 head To-Day. Some heavy
lambs from Colorado sold at the top to-
day, 1850, and yearlings reached 81 90
today, wethers $500 and ewes $3.50.
There prices are as food as any time re
Gently on all classes except ewes, which
we're lacking in quality today. Fair to
good lambs range from s. 30 to 81 80,
and other grades downwards 10 to so
cents from tops. j. A. Rickart,

Prosperous Germany.

Herr Dernburg, the Colonial secretary,

democratic organ, Vorwarts' accepts the
figure without protest. Every indica.
ton points to a condition OF almost I'M
paraleled prosperity among all Glasses
Of the people today. The income tax
returns Of Prussia for 1908, published
a mouth ago, show an aggregate Of
Prussi,n incomes 9.5 percent larger
that that for 1907, which in turn was
more than Is per cent larger than that
for 1906.
The three important economic tests,
the volume Of emigration, the amount
Of unemployment among trade union.
ists, and the showing Of savings bank
deposits all point very forcibly in the
same direction. Emigration from
Great Britain is, proportionally, ten to
fifteen times as heavy as from Germany,
unemployment at least three to four
time more widespread, and the increase
OF savings banks deposits less than one.
twenty.tiith as rapid. The cost Of liv.
ing, especially the price OF bread and
meat, has risen in recent yeara, but it is
still lower than in Greet Britain, and
the rise OF wages during the same per-

workingman,
II Germany is not already the wealth.
lest nation in Europe, as some econ
omists contend, she seems at least on
the sure road to becoming 30; and she is
to-day indisputably the most prosperous.
During the past thirty years the EN-.
pire has accumulated . vast load OF debt
and has entered upon gigantic lines OF
enterprise whose cost was not carefully
counted 10 the beginning. The gap be.

to the conclusion that the difficulties oil

launching OF new and ambitious
world power in an era OF international
prodigality such Us the past three de.
cades have been. And there is no rea.

and girls spending their time in idleness,
in wasting precious weeks OF the few
years Of preparation for life? Most am-
bilious boys and girls would rather
spend vacation in learning something

A Hen for a Dollar.

One dollar in Uncle Sam's money is a
pretty good price to pay for one hen; in
fact Hammond Bros, the produce men,
say that that is the largest sum from
which they have unfastened themselves
in return for one lone biddy since they
have been in business in Jasper. Last
Monday was when the record was brok-

...nneapolis, June 12.-When Emil
Hanstrom entered the police head
quarters last night he was indignat.
He said, with some pride, that he was
a farmer from Bottineau, N. D., and
that he had came to the metropolis to
spend his had-earned dollars.
"But I wasn't allowed to spend
them he walled. they took them
away from me, and a check for $500.
Hanstrom did not discover his loss
until he was ready to go to bed.
1nen it suddenly dawned on him
that he had been q victim of hold
up men. He made for headquarters
in his stocking feet, carrying his
shoes in his hand. ell averred that
he had been robbed while buying
drinks for a crowd. The dreams of
highwaymen were rudely shatterd
by Captain Ruvir, who searched the
man and found the none and check
In his pocket.
"But III teach you lesson, young
man," said the captain. 'I'm going
to loo kyou up. No one will rob you
tonight If we can help It,"
Hanstrom wept aid begged, but he
was uneceremoniously bundled into

SET OFF LOT OF DYNAMITE.

Jamestown, June -l2.-About 100
pounds Of dynamite were used. at
the lake in teh attempt to locate the
bodies of teh two people drowned
last Thursday. The dynamite was
discharged in different amounts, one
chareg of 80 pounds being. the slarg-
est single charge. A copper wire was
attached to an. electric cap which
was touched of by: battery in the
boat; the wire was about 200 feet
long. At one time the wire broke
and that charge was lost and still
rem aims in the bottom Of the lake.
The first charge appears !, to have
been close TO- the bodies. One small
charge of nearly r. pounds nearly
swamped the boat as the wind drift
ed the boat and occupants closer to
the spot than was intended: and the
surging of the waves after the dis
charge raised the boat about three
feet. It is possible that the dyna-
mite assisted in forcing the bodies
towards the shore, and it said that
the ear drums Of both young peo-
pie were bursted. = f:|.x@E 3tt$<;&
