Pima Cattle Deal

The cattle of John Nelson will be shipped Tuesday from Red Rock to Clayton, N. M. They brought SII8,ooo. l.. E. Booker and w. D. Cornell of Fl Paso are the purchasers. Both are in the city, says the Tucson Citizen.
 With the failure of the grass on the California ranges, the price of steers for fattening had dropped $ per head, being now on the average S25. Miller & Lux of California, who had purchased from 8,ooo to 10, 1000 head in Ari- zona, have thrown them back upon the market because they cannot be grazed in California. This resulted in the fall in prices.
 Two weeks ago, cattle could scarcely be had at any price. Now there are more offered than can be sold, brokers assert.

CATTLE SITUATION
 BAD IN MEXICO

Sonora cattlemen are in quan- dary as to what course to pursue in regard to the cattle they now have on the ranges. They do not believe that they can round them up, and if they don't they are still in as bad a fix.
 To round up the cattle for de- livery to the market only leaves the cattle open to conhscation by the state forces, while on the other hand, if the stock is left on the range, they will be forced to subscribe to the new million peso bond issue and perhaps eventually lose their cattle in the bargain.
 Several have stated that the only way they see out of the situa- ton at the present time is to wait until a disagreement arises be- tween the state forces, al which time, should 1t occur. they can rush their cattle to the border and pass them into the states before one or the other faction secures control.

Kansas City Market Letter
(By J. A. Rickart, Correspondeup

Kansas City Stock Yards, April 2S, IoIS.-Beef cattle declined 10 to 25 cents last week, and stock cattle and feeders outside of few choice ones lost as much or more. Dealers here predicted a light run today and the supply here is mod crate at oooo head. But Chicago had enormous supplies of both cattle and hogs today, which put the situation everywhere into the hands of buyers. Light cattle moved pretty freely this morning at about 10 lower prices. but heavy steers were untouched up to eleven o'clock. Statesmen re- fused to concede the reduction of Is to 20 cents on them demanded by buyers, but late sales were on a compromise basis not far from that decline. Two cars of Okla homa heifers sold at $40, and some panhandle fed yearlings at s s, the leading early sales today. A larger percentage of the receipts today are fed steers than on any previous day in several months, indicating that the country is tired of waiting for the market to ad- vance. The break today, how ever, will probably cause astute feeders to hold on awhile, where it is possible. Best fed steers will stop around 8.5o today, which is very close to the figures they were bringing a year ago this week, the first time this year for them to get so close to last years S prices. Stock grades and feeders are quarter lower than week ago, but are still one dollar higher than year ago, condition, in conjunction with the relative prices of fat cattle this year and last, conducive to increased eau ton on the part of country buyers. Quarantine receipts are light today, largely middle class fed steers from Oklahoma and north Texas, at 6. 90 to 7.3o. Colorado and western steers today ranged from TAO to 8.25.
 Hogs regained part of their loss of early last week before the close of the week, but the market broke worse than ever today, ac- count of the big run at Chicago. Receipts here today LOGO head, which IS 2ooo more than the early estimate. It will take some days of light runs to subdue the gloat- ing of the packers indulged today and though. .things look blue, most of the dealers still believe prices will soon advance. Top today is 8.6o, bulk ot sales S.3o to $50. Sheep and lambs sold good last week, with minor changes. Re ceipts are 1000 here today, fed stuff 10 lower, clipped mutton steady today. Top lambs brought 8.6o today, clipped wethers 6.3o, clipped native ewes 5.75. Texas will not ship more than 60 percent of a normal number this year, because of dry weather there, and dealers therefore, look for good market ahead,

Horrible Death
Young Farmer of Eastern
Highland Thrown from
Horse.

Last Monday morning, not lorg
after Glen Armstrong had left his
home to 60 onto Bullpasture noun
tain to look after some sheep his
riderless horse came running home,
the saddle turned completely over,
but the girth unbroken, and with
grave approximations his wife start
ell to investigate its mean
ing. A quarter of a mile up the
mountain the managled and bleed
| ing body of the unfortunate man
was found, almost entirely stripped
of clothing. The nature of the ac-
cident was at once apparent, he
having been dragged for nearly a
bali mile down the mountain be-
meath the hoofs of a runaway horse,
his foot fast in the stirrup.
Mr.. Armstron left the house at
about $50, going to the sheep
range on the eastern slope of Bull
pasture mountain near the Evick
house, which can be seen from the
turnpike as the traveller nears the
top, and. whether the horse, a
spirited one, threw him or fell will
possible never be known, but, with
his foot fast in the stirrup he was
dragged for nearly half mile down
the steep, rough mountain to his
death.
The appearance of the body only
added grim horror to the awful pic
ture which the imagination would
naturally depict, and while there is
no one to give any explanation of
the terrible accident, every circum-
stance points to it as one of the
NEST horrible deaths, and unspeak-
ably sad.
Mr.. Armstrong was son OF Abel
Fl. Armstrong, one of the county's|
oldest and best-known families,
with many relatives throughout
Virginia and the Western states.
He was only about % years of age,
and little more than a year ago
was married to Miss Lille, daugh-
ter of William Armstrong, and the
young wife and a little baby boy
survive him. At the time of the
sad accident he was living with his
family at the old Armstrong home,
near Armstrong; Mill, on the
Cowpasture.
While comparative stranger in
this part of the county, it is under
stood that Mr.. Armstrong was a
most worthy and deserving young
man, and his sad, untimely death
has awakened universal sympathy
and regret in the hearts of all the
pe0ple.
