WEEKLY MARKET LETTER
CBy J. A. RIckart, correspondenp


 the cattle market last week, though Tuesday did not bring much inn provement. Very light receipts after Tuesday began to effect slight advances immediately on light and handy weight killing stuff, and by the end of the week all the loss of Monday had been restored Today the run is only 7ooo head here, according to first estimates. The smallness of the run put some vim in the early action, at prices 10 to Is higher than close of last week, and around a quarter above a week ago, and although the final count ran two thousand head above the estimate, the market did no weaken, March receipts of cattle will show a decrease of nearly 10 per cent from last March at Kan- sas City and Chicago, and even a greater decrease at some of the other markets, and yet the market has Jagged along reluctantly all month so far. Even the rise of  the past week has been granted only because of the extra slim supply. The cattle supply during the next three months is expected to show some gains over same months last year, but the last half of the year, according to par ties who have surveyed the whole field recently, will show a de- crease of 10 per cent in cattle re- ceipts from last year. Quaran- tine receipts amounted to 100 cars last week, and 40 cars arrived today, mostly steers at s5.25 to S5.oo Best steers in native di- vision today sold at S6.s5, bulk S5. so to $6.I5, cows S4 to S5.35, heifers from Nebraska today at S6.Io, veal calves $6. 50 to S7.5 stock steers SAYS to $500, feed CTS s5.25 to $500.
 Total marketing of sheep and lambs at all points last week fell off IS per cent from previous week, though there was a good run here. Colorado is furnishing the big bulk of the receipts, and will continue to do so two weeks or more. Spring lambs will soon begin to come, and dealers say prices will not be as high as in former years, because Easter comes so late, and there will be plenty of lambs. They say pack CTS will pick and choose, and doubt if SIo per cwt. is exceeded, probably S to So taking most of the early lambs. Run is light here today, 7,ooo, market 10 higher, top lambs S6.35, ycarlings S5.65, wethers S5.25, ewes S5.Io, clipped stock 50 to 75 cents under these figures for best.
 Hog receipts last week were 6S,ooo head here, about 10000 less than previous week. The market declined materially during the week, but it was not without a struggle on the part of sales men. A year ago now was the high time, and shippers grow sentimentally reminiscent in re- calling the ten dollars per cwt. they received then, and compare it with the three and one-half dol lars less that they receive now, but they still are able to say at the finish, that there is still a profit in. feeding hogs. Run here today 10000 head, market weak to 5 lower, closing steady, heavy hogs S6.45 to S6.55, medium ,,a;ohte x6 so to x6 -= ;o h f

MAINE WAS BLOWN | UP FROM THE INSIDE
General Bixby Says no Such Effect Could Be Produced
 From Without

Washington, July 5.-The loss of the battleship Maine was caused by the ex- plosion of her three magazines. No such effect as that produced upon the vessel could have been caused by an explosion from without Such Is the opinion of Gen. William H. Bixby, chief of engineers of the United States army, who has re- turned after personal inspection of the work of raising the Maine.
 General Bixby says that a portion of the deck over the magazines was blown upward and backward and that there are numerous conditions which prove this No explosion from the outside, says the general, could have caused the same result What the primary cause of the explosion was" said General Bixpy to- night, never will be learned
 General Bixby does not believe that the navy department will find the bodies or sailors and officers on the Maine. He says that they are. probably buried 200 feet or more from the wreck in the mud.
 While inspecting the work, General Bixby prodded around the bow Of the vessel. He found by his sounding that at least two thirds of the bow was ab- solutelv wrecked. The sides had been practically blown away and were bur fed in the mud. This, he said, showed conclusively that the wreck of the Maine was caused by an explosion With in the vessel.

Kansas City, July 5.-In Kansas many of the larger rivers, among them the verdigris, are drying up, and cities which depend upon them for their water supply are facing an almost unprecedented water famine.
 In Coffeyville the water supply is vir- tually exhausted and the city officials have forbidden the sprinkling of lawns. The two ice plants that depend on the Verdigris river for water may be com pelled to close down, as possibly will the manufacturing plants in the city.
 In Emporia and several other towns the situation is similar.
