Sheep Market ImprOVcu.
There were no arrivals in the NUT
ton division of North Portland today
and this is having a good effect upon
the trade generally. AS there are few
lots of real fancy sheep remaining in
the local territory at this time, the
trade will be compelled to purchase
practically all of its requirements
elsewhere. This naturally will help
whatever stuff is marketed here from
the home section.
At Chicago there was a steady tone
in the sheep trade today, with run
of $4,000 head.
At South Omaha sheep were steady

A DEMONSTRATION
OF APPROVAL
FOLLOWED ORDER OF COURT
DISMISSING CASE AGAINST
MRS. GEORGE SPENCER.

There was a demonstration OF ap-
proyal OF the order OF the court in
dismissing the charge against Mrs.
George Spencer Saturday wnen she
was given an examining trial before
Justice Of the Peace w. T. Wiseman
at Joiner on the charge OF attempt
ing 70 poison the family of Will
Spencer The -four that was alleged
to have contained poison had not
been returned from the office OF the
state chemist, but the state did not
insist on continuance and the case
went to trial without the evidence
proposed by the introduction of the
statement of the analysis of the
flour.
All tine business houses in Reck
and nearly all the homes were closed
and the people went to Joiner to
attend the trial.
Mrs. George Spencer testified that
some trouble arose between her ana
her sister-in-law, but that it soon
passed away and following the trou-
BILE and before the alleged poisoning
OF the -four in the Spencer home the
two Spencer women met socially
together and prepared their children
to take part in the county spelling
match held at Ardmore She said
the patterns that she was alleged
to have taken to the viii Spencer
home on the day of the alleged pois
oning were not taken :1ere py u,l.
self, but that Mrs. viii Spencer had
come for the patterns and had taken
them to her own home. The state
failed to show that Mrs. George
Spencer entered the home of Mrs.
VIII Spencer as was alleged. Mrs
VIII Spencer testified that she saw
Mrs. George Spencer passing her
house and that she mus, have en-.
tered her home while she herself
was in the garden. Mrs. George
Spencer's own son was used as a
state witness to prove that two
bottles OF strychnine were missing
from the Spencer store, but there
was no evidence that Mrs. George
Spencer had appropriated or used
the poison.

RELIEF FROM HIGH PRICES is

There is some hope for decline
in the prices Of living necessities
now within 4 short time Whether
the cause can be attributed TO a
democratic congress and TO bright
prospccts for democratic success in
the next presidential election is not
known, but It is known that there
is decline in some Of the prices.
Flour and syrup are some cheaper
than they were thirty days ago and
in the dry goods line the heavy cot
ton goods, the American weaves. are
showing weakness on the market
and the price is tumbling.
Hogs are selling on the local mar
ke, now at prices ranging from &c
TO Sc and that decline which has
been a marked one will result in
lower prices Of bacon, hams and
lard
