DECISION
OF LOWER COURTS
soo.leseers Must Beat Officers to
Trains or Have Their Goods
coutscated.

Guthrie. Okla. Oct. 5--If residents
OF Oklahoma wish to receive shipments
Of intoxicants and dispose OF same in
violation of the state prohibition laws,
they must get to the incoming train
ahead cf the officers of the law If they
expect to obtain possession Of the con.
signment before the Law lays violent
hands on IT,
This was the effect of the decision
OF the state supreme court yesterday
in which all Justices concurred and
which reversed the findings OF the
lower civil courts. These courts and
the Oklahoma criminal court of ap.
peals have held that the interstate
commerce laws protected the ship
ment OF liquor while it was on the
premises of the railroad and until &C
tually delivered 10 the eonsignee.
The decision yesterday was in the
ease Of b. ". Tucker. who took advan.
tage OF the usual court finding and
shipped car load Of beer to Oklaho-
ma City, where he was disposing Of It
from the car in the Santa Fe yards.
F.. Yesterdays decision brings two ap.
pellate courts Of the state into direct
conflict and II Is understood the Grim.
inal court OF appeals wiz stand By its
own Interpretation Of the Law.
In It's syllabus the court says:
A citizen Of Oklahoma having pur-
chased intoxicating liquors in another
state and caused the same to be trans.
ported 10 him as consignee In this
state BY an interstate shipment, the
lavs Of the state BY virtue Of the po.
lice power attach themselves imme-
diately after the contamination Of the
delivery By the carrier to the con.
gignee.
Such consignee having received the
actual and exclusive possession Of
such liquors from the carrier at its
depot and retaining such possession
on is said premises With the purpose
and the intention Of barterlng the
same contrary TO the laws Of this
state. such liquors may be seized and

Live Stock Market.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 8, 1909-I Cattle receipts this week were slightly less than last week, the de crease the last days of the week, and due to good rains that have fallen in Kansas and Missouri this week. The market was a little lower Monday and Tuesday, but revived immediately with the ar. rival of the rains, and all decent killing stuff is 10 to 20 higher than a week ago. Bulk of the cattle supply this week came from Kan sas pastures in native territory, very little from the range country and only moderate supply from below the quarantine line. One train of fair to good Colorado beef steers sold at $4.50 and $4.60, weighing 1175 to 1260tb and the cows included went at $3.60 and $3.05. Some Utah stockers sold at $4.20. Good weight steers from Kansas pastures sell at S4.75 to $500, with few extra good grass steers up to $6.75, top on fed steers $7.65 this week. Grass cows range from $500 to $4.50, bulls $2.75 to $3.75, veal calves $5.50 to $500. Attendance of buyers from the the country was heaviest of the season first of this week, and indi- cations point to a still larger ar ray next week, account of favorable weather this week, and improved prospects for crops. Experts have figured the losses by reason of the recent hot dry spell at six percent to corn in Illinois and Iowa, and between fifteen and twenty percent in Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma. These figures still show

a corn crop in excess of that of last year. Feeders are selling at $4.00 to $5.95, a few feshy steers up to $6.00, stock steers $500 to $4.5O.
 Sheep and lambs are coming more freely, market about steady this week. A feature this week is the sale today of Colorado year. lings, weighing 90fb, from the Western Slope, at $5.50 and $5.60. Top lambs from Utah sold at $750, for several strings, and Ari- zonas also brought that figure for tops, medium lambs around $700. feeding lambs $500 to S635. Other yearlings than the tops today have sold at $500 to $5.25 this week, wethers $4.50 to $4,S5, ewes up to $4.75. Damage to crop prospects

Law is Defective.

2 According to prominent attor- neys, a mistake made by the last legislature is responsible for the repeal of the law limiting the work of smeltermen and hoisting eu, gineers to eight hours.
 The legislature put through an act which prominent attorneys de- clare invalidates the entire statute limiting the hours of smeltermen and hoisting engineers.
 Several attorneys were inter- viewed and they were unanimous in declaring that the new law not only repeals the previous eight hour law regarding the working hours of men employed in the smelters and as hoisting engineers but fails to provide any penalty in the event that the amended law is violated and is consequently re- garded as null and void.
 Thos. F. Weedin councilman from Pinal county, who introduced the substitute measure, is inter- esTed in mining in that section. The measure now being attacked by the legal lights but which miners generally hope will with stand the assult is as follows.
 CHAPTER 1S.-AN ACT.
 Regulating Hours of Labor of Hoisting Engineers and Furnace Men.
 Be it enacted by the legislative assembly of the Territory of Ari- zona.
 Section 1.-The period of em ployment of hoisting engineers at the mines in this territory and fur mace men at the sme.ters in said territory shall be eight hours per day, except in case of emergency where life or property is in immin- ent danger.
 Section 2.-All acts and parts of acts in conflict with the provisions of this act are hereby repealed.
 Section 3.-This act shall take effect and be in force from and after its passage.-Prospector.

has hurt the demand for stock and feeding grades a little but it has always been in excess of the sup. ply and has improved since the rain this week. Receipts of na- tives are dropping off, and packer buyers express great relief at the prospect of being able to fill orders with the uniform bands of grass westerns for some time ahead, in- stead of by means of combining in numerable small lots of natives, of varying weight and quality.
