Market Notes.

While demand for cattle was very
Indifferent Tuesday, prices held fairly
steady. Thousands were carried over
from Monday and the fresh receipts
were over $500. Sellers however did
not show for sale and this held the
prices. The best beeves offered were
forty head of 1888 to 1885 pounds
average, which we're marketed by the
Iowa experiment station and sold at
$500. A light run of cows and hcif.
ers sold steady.
The trade In stockers and feeders
was quiet affair Prices were mere
ly steady. The offerings we're light
In numbers and the demand very linn
tied. Light weight we'll bred stockers
were given the preference.
The reduction of the fresh supply OF
hogs Tuesday and the small number
held over from the previous day en-
abled sellers to do some debating. AS
result, the market was fairly act
I've and prices were strong to DC high
err The proportion OF lightweights
and higher priced hogs was enough
larger to make the general average
price at 1907 around 5 cents higher
than the previous day.
The arrival Of sheep and lambs on
Tuesday tailed $4,000 head. Barring
choice handy weight lambs, prices
were l0Q15 cents lower all around.

LOCAL PLANT CLOSED
Strike at Muscatine Has Affected
Oskaloosa Button Factory.

| The strike of button workers a
Muscatine has affected this city, anc
orders have been issued for the clos
ing down of the Oskaloosa plant o.
the Hawkeye Pearl Button Company
This means considerable loss to the
local Industrial circles as forty mer
have been on the pay roll, earning as
high as $375.O0 per week. In addi
ton to instructions sent to those in
charge of the business, the following
letter of explanation was received by
Mr.. r. M. Boyer, who was chairman
of the Commercial Club Committee
which was instrumental in securing
the establishment of the factory in
Oskaloosa:
Muscatine, April %.
Dear Strive regret to inform
you that it is necessary for us to
close down our cutting plant in your
city, for an indefinite length of time.
On account of the labor troubles we
are having, we have accumulated an
enormous stock of blanks. We had
hoped the existing difficulties would
have been settled before this and that
IL would not be necessary to shut
down the Oskaloosa plant, but we
have concluded we cannot operate
our finishing plant in Muscatine and
will be compelled to move same out
of town. We have a number of prop
ositions from cities, who are willing
to move our plant without any ex-
pense or loss to us, guaranteeing us
industrial peace, and we probably will
accept one of these offers.
The first of the week, Labor Com
missioner Van Duyn recommended
that the employees go to work Thurs
day morning, meet with their employ
ers Saturday afternoon and adjust all
which they might have. We
have been operating our plant in &C.
cordance with this agreement but the
employees did not come back to work
and the rioting was so fierce yester-
day that the local militia was called
out to preserve the peace. The troops
in other cities are under arms and it
is possible the town will be put un.
der martial law.
The striking employees at a mass
agreed to accept the recon-
of Commissioner Van
Duyn, but failed to live up to same.
We are sorry to close your cutting
plant, and can assure you that as
soon as conditions warrant, will be
glad to open same.
We would like to have you keep in
mind the fact that we have run this
plant eight weeks with practically no
use for the blanks and have done our
best to keep same in operation.
Yours truly,
Hawkeye Pearl Button Co.
Per w. F. Bishop.
