live Stock Market.


 KANSAS CITY, Sept. 29, 1911.- Cattle received here this week 73,200, last week 61,600, same week last year 91,0OO. The big run of 30,000 head here Monday, which included $500 calves, depres. sed prices 5 to 15 cents, and made the outlook for the week discourag- ing for sellers. The number of cattle pressing on the market does not appear to be burdensome, since owners were able to cut down the run sharply after Tuesday, and thus bring an upturn to prices which has restored them to the best in effect late last week. There Is no broad outlet for the beef now, and the twenty per cent shortage from last year that has occurred this month in cattle receipts has produced no effect better than to hold prices about steady, on a level not unlike that of year ago. The best native steers here this week sold at $6.S5, short fed steers S5.75 to $7 %, best native grass steers at $Z00 to $720, weighing close to 1400tb, lighter native grass steers at $5.25 to $675, Old Mex icos from Kansas at $3.90 to $4.35, natives cows up to $500, prime fed heifers $700. Panhandle COWS are running freely, and bring good prices, $3 so 10 $4 40. Quarantine run Is fairly liberal, but quality is lacking, and presents the wind up of the season appearance in most cases. Top quarantine steers this week $500 to $5 20, bulk of steers $415 to $4.75, quarantine cows around $400. The calf market got jolt this week, light veals off quarter, heavy calves 50 to 100 lower, full range $400 to $775. Country buyers have been plenti- ful this week. but they are careful about what they pay for cattle, the market about steady on country kinds. Fair to good feeders sell at $500 to $5 50, choice ones up to $500, stock steers at $3.50 to $500, but not many below $4.00. Stock cows and heifers $3.00 to S450. Colorado and Western cat. tle very scarce this week, beef steers worth $475 to $500, cows S3.75 to $485.
 Hogs received here this week 54, 200, last week 52,600, same week last year 31,000. The market has had tendency to decline, though sellers were able to hold 1t in check about half the time. Run to-day is light, 4000, market strong to higher, top $6.45, bulk S6.25 to $6 40. Not as many sick pigs have arrived this week as heretofore. Packers are more will- ing to clean up the pens every day this week than they were when prices were little higher, indicat- ing that they have now got the market down somewhere near basis satisfactory to them.
 Sheep and lambs here this week 52,800, last week $500, same week last year 7,500. Dealers

NEGRO SOLDIERS
NOT RUFFIANLY
General Carter Contradicts Re-
cent Washington Dispatch.
CONGRESSMAN GARNER WRONG
His Contention that Black Boys Have
Caused Disturbance and Been
UnruIy Is Denied by Officers
and Citizens.
CONGRESSMAN GARNER WRONG

San Antonio, Tex, April 5.-Gen-
eral William H. Carter, in command
Of the troops modified here, said that
he had received no order %detaching
the Ninth cavalry, the negro regiment,
from his division. and he did not eX-
pect to receive such an order.
A Washington dispatch had it that
Congressman Garner of Texas, fearing
soldiers in San Antonio and acts Of
lawlessness alleged to have been at
tributed to them would eventually
precipitate a repetition Of the Browns
vile troubles in which the Twenty
Fourth infantry was involved a few
years ago.
The refusal of the negro troopers to
be bound by the law permitting only
certain seats in the street cars to be
occupied by negroes had already
Congressman Garner.
When General Carter was asked if
there was any basis for the congress
mans fears of general disorder being
brought about by the presence of the
Ninth cavalry, he said: "The conduct
of the soldiers Of the division, both
white and black, has been exemplary,
I have heard of very little disorder
and that was by no means confined to
negro soldiers. I have no misgivings
iN +h@ ront+nr nf nOn1I0f IF nnu nf hn
soldiers Of the division"
From officers of General Carriers
staff it was learned that when the
Ninth cavalry arrived here from Fort
D. A. Russell in Wyoming all of the
first s~erge2nts, mel old in the service
and imbued with the spirit Of the
army, volunteered to their superior Of
ficers to be responsible for the con-
duct and discipline of the men of the
regiment. They have achieved all
that they promised, 80 John F. Gull
foyle, the commander of the regiment,
said. He added that every complaint
against the men Of his command had
been investigated and found to be
baseless.
The general manager of the San An
tonic Traction company did not sup
port the statements Of Congressman
Garner. He said that there had been
very few complaints made by conduc-
tors against negro soldiers for refus-
ing to heed the Jim Crow law, and
thought the most fragrant disturbance
on the street cars had been committed
by a white soldier of the Fourth field
artillery, who was not allowed by the
conductor to sit in the seats reserved
for negroes, and %thereupon began to
fight. Chief of Police Newman of San
Antonio has heard only one complaint
against the colored soldiers.

HEAVY STORM IN SOUTH
Particulars Are Meager on Ac-
count of Crippled Wires.
Property Damaged and at Least One
Life Lost-AIahan0a and Missis-
sippi Suffer.

New Orleans, April 5.-Badly Grip
of what is believed to have been one
of the most extensive storms that has
swept the south in years. Alabama,
Mississippi, Florida, Louisiana and
East Texas are the most. severe suf-
ferers. Along the gulf the damage is
known to have been serious and while
few authentic reports of loss Of life
have been received the number of
casualties probably will be consider
ably larger.
Selma. Ala, was cut off, but broken
messages received in Montgomery re
ported that a cyclone passed near
there.
Admission, Ala, reports very serious
winds and property damage, but no
life lost.
At G%ulfport, Miss, a trainman was
killed trying to flag a passenger train
which was in the act of crashing into
a box car blown across it's track. At
Gulfport the steeple of the Methodist
church vas wrecked and the great
buildings Of the Gulfport oil mills and
the naval stores company were I'm
rooted, allowing the tropical rain to
flood their contents.
News of the shipping along the coast
is awaited with anxiety. Owing to
the early stage Of the crops, they are
not seriously injured, but fruit trees
and truck gardens are badly damaged.

PREPARING LAND SHOW
TO BE HELD IN MARCH

Announcement that the Panama ca
nal will be open in 1913 has caused
capitalists, in all parts of the country,
to fix their eyes on the sparsely set
tied lands between the Rocky Noun
tains and the Pacific as offering Op-
portunity for vast profits. Each year
more than 100000 immigrants to the
United States list themselves as farm
ers, and it is expected that this num-
.ber, at least, will be diverted to the
Pacific seaboard by the canal.
The reason back of this may be
seen in the agreement of economic eX-
perts that the Sierra Nevada range
of mountains in California alone far
exceeds in natural wealth the noun
tain ridge comprising two-thirds of
italy. from which more than 10000
0Os people draw their livelihood, and
support a debt burdened government.
