A WICKED FIRE
Eleven Head of Horses Perish
at Mrs. Ellen Kiner's
Farm

The most destructive fire in this
vicinity foi some time occurred at the
farm of Mrs. Ellen Kiner, FIVE miles
south of the city, early yesterday
morning, comprising the destruction
of barn and clever head of horses,
besides other property contained in
the building. The cause of the fire
is a mystery. Sons of Mrs. Kiner
completed their work at the barn
about 9 o'clock Tuesday evening, using
no lanterns or lights of any kind.
During the evening, until bedtime,
they were about the premises, and
when they retired everything was APP
parently in the usual safe condition.
About 2 O'Clock yesterday morning
they were awakened by the intense
light produced by the burning build
ing, the FIRE having progressed before
discovery to the extent that nothing in
the barn could be saved. Eleven hors-
es persisted where they were confined.
Two cows in the barn escaped on their
own account but were quite badly
burned. Harnesses, a quantity of
grain and other property were also
burned.
The loss is estimated at something
over 80, 900 with insurance of $500
in W. M. Beardsley's agency, on the
building There was no insurance on
the live stock which persisted. The
barn was comparatively new, having
been built about two years ago.

Weekly Market Letter.

Weekly Market Letter.
Kansas City Stock Yards, January IS, 1912,
Expectation of liberal supply |
OF cattle the first of this week,
together with shortage of re-
frigerator cars IN which to move
the beef, put a damper on the
cattle market last week after the |
middle of the week, Some cat
tie sold Saturday Is to 20 cents
under their mates that were here |
Wednesday. Suckers and feed
ers we're an exception, the mild
weather since the first of last
week stimulating that trade
somewhat. Veal calves also shot
upward 0cents worth last week.
J., Butcher stuff has been selling
rather better than beef steers,
because there is a wider demand
for the cheaper class Of meat.
That tendency has been boon
to quarantine cattle, and the 200
car loads of Oil mill steers here
+ last week sold at S5.l5 to 5000,
: prices high enough to make their
, feeders money. The run today
: did not turn out to be excessive,
i 10000 head here, but Chicago
had too many cattle, %, 900 head,
: and prices on killing cattle are
steady to 10 lower. Butcher
stuff again sells shade better
than steers, and stockers and
feeders are steady today. The
best drove of steers here last
week sold at 500, on Friday,
and some good steers brought
e $40 early this morning. A re-
[ spectacle mum Der of steers sell
above $40, bulk of beef steers
d at So Is to $725. These prices
:. are $1.00$l. 80 higher than year
ago at this time. Stockers and
feeders sell from $500 to $500,
G prices which are close to those
ruling at this time last year.
High cost of feed explains the
: difference in the relative values
!. this year. Dealers advise eau

h last week till nine tenths of the
