Good Reason for His Enthusiasm

When a man has suffered for several days with collie, diarrhoea or other form of bowel complaint and is then cured sound and well by one or two doses of Chamber lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often the case, it is but natural that he should be enthusiastic in his praise of the remedy, and especially is this the case of a severe attack when life is threatened. Try it when in need of such a remedy. It never ails. Sold by all druggists. .-Ad- vertisement.

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

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug. 4, IoI3.-Bulk of the cattle in the native division were involved in a 20 to 35 cent decline last week, prime grades weak to Is lower, common cattle half dollar lower in some instances. Stock cattle and feeders declined 25 to 50 cents during the week. Ouaran- tine cattle acted independently smaller supplies from below the tick line selling at an advance of 25 to 40 cents over the previous week. Unexpected heavy receipts of cattle today are selling slowly at unevenly lower prices. Prime cattle are weak to IS lower, quar- antine cattle 10 to 20 lower, a great mass of grassers in the native division 20 to 35 lower, calves 25 to 50 lower, and stock cattle and feeders on the demand for which the great burden of the  present and prospective cattle situation rests, 25 to 50 lower. The morning estimate called for 3o,ooo cattle for today, but only 2S, 1000 arrived, the reduction being due to fewer quarantine cattle by one half than were estimated. Two thirds of the run is normal, and probably one third is here account of dry weather. Prime heavy steers brought 8.65 today, fancy heifers 8.85, bulk of fed steers 7.5o to 8.25. Kansas grass steers 6.5o to 8.oo, quarantine grass steers, including common light ones, 4.75 to 6.5o, native COWS 400 to 6.75, veal calves 6.oo 10 8.25, stock steers 500 to 700, feeders 6.oo to 7.25. A hurry call has gone out to pros- pective country buyers, who have quickly answered all such calls heretofore.
 Trade in hogs developed great unevenness last week, account of increased number of dry weather refugees, which sold poorly. Good light hogs declined 10 to IS cents for the week, common grades of hogs half dollar and pigs dol lar off. Total receipts aie running light, 6ooo here today. The market is off 5 to 10 cents today, top 8.oo, bulk of sales S.7o to 8.85. Conditions are bearish, ex- cept for the moderate run, which is more than offset by other un- favorable symptoms.
 Sheep broke 25 to 50 cents last week, lambs 50 to $ cents lower, and for no reason that could be discerned above the surface. Re- ceipts are 6ooo today, market 10 to I5 lower, fair to good lambs 6.5o to 6.So today, ewes around 4.25. Utah lambs opened the season last week at TAO, after half of the decline had become effective, Utah ewes at 4.35, UtaR weathers i.75, quality not very good on any of them. Arizona feeding lambs brought 5.85 to 6.Io last week.

 Market Letter for the Past Week.
Los Angeles Market Letter

Los Angeles, Aug. 4, IoI3.- Beef steers are bringing 6.5o to 7 cents COWS $50 to Goo veal 7 cents.
 Little activity is being shown in cattle circles, and notwithstanding the optimistic view taken by stock men, buyers are slow and the fall demand is still uncertain.
 There are no certain signs of activity which should have started before this, the beef market in California is still clogged and not strong.
 The fall prices made by early spring contracts have not been equalled, sellers still holding for higher prices than any buyers are willing to pay. There are still uncontracted in Northern Arizona at least ten thousand twos and threes steers and probably twenty thousand yearlings, several con- tracts supposedly closed having not been actually signed up.
 The 5000 big 3s up feeder steers from the island, did not sell at 6.5o delivered Santa Barbara or San Pedro, although they bar all fine 3s and AS averaging 1000 pounds. These steers are cheaper at 6.5o than the best Northern Arizonas at $50 for Arizona, shrink, acclimating and freight considered as we'll as age, but will probably not bring over 6.25 at the most, within one dollar per head of the feed yards.
 Douglas News states many cattle are coming oyer the line, and the better grades bringing 2o.oo tor ones 25.oo for twos and 5000 for threes. Other yearlings bred up which are about the same grade as North Central Arizonas are bringing 26.oo.
 Prescott district has made no important fall sales as yet and many thousands are to be had.
 The Blackberry country deliv- cred partly in the spring and all the cattlemen are looking tor good fall prices of 28.oo to 5000 tor long yearlings but no one is pay ing the price. Cows are held also at 28.oo.
 The Prescott district also fig ures 2S.oo for fall yearlings but buyers are not willing to go over 26.oo.
 The fall demand for COWS is light. There was and is some demand for immediate delivery cattle large enough to feed on beet tops for August delivery, which IS a time no Arizona people care to consider.
 The feeder sellers of 2s up steers are holding to expect 5.75 to 6 cents and buyers will not yet pay such prices. The beef outlook is not rosy and new icing plants are being erected at San Pedro to take care of large consignments of beef. There is large number of cattle on feed now so prospective beef shortage is looked for in the near future on the coast, and buyers figure if they do hase to pay 5.75 for feeders without beef, it IS the top price and they can buy later when things are surer just as well as by contracted ahead, as there seem to be plenty of cattle in sight for local needs.

Recalls Sensational Escape.

The arrest of Yates Standridge at Eufaula, Ok, Friday, recalls one of the most sensational escapes from Arkansas prison camps. Last Feb ruary Standridge and four com panions, all desperate men, escaped from a prison car at Alberg, this state. They sawed a hole in the door and turned the lock with a key they whittled from a broom stick.
 For the next several days north west Arkansas was the scene of an exciting man hunt. Standridge was captured by a sheriff in one of the northwestern counties, but dis armed his captor and again made his escape. It was reported that he had taken refuge at the home of his mother in the Newton county mountains, and that the officers feared to modest him. Another re- port was that he sent word to the prison authorities that he intended 10 surrender.
 Standridge is the last of the five to be captured. His companions were picked up at various places, one in Texas and another at Mem phis. within two months after they had made their escape. Standridge was serving a 52-years' sentence for murder. He had served one year. Three years ago he was sent to the penitentiary for shooting a deputy sheriff in Newton county. After being taken to the peniten- tiary he made his escape.
 Returning home he killed a man and two women. alleging they were harboring his wife. For this of fenSe he was sentenced to serve 5 years.

THIS HERO SAVED
 400 FROM A MINE
Charles Mathis. Coal Mine Engi- neer. Hair Singed and Hands Bis tered by Heat, Thought of Those
 Below Gromd-May Die.

Duquoin H.. July 2.-Charles Mathis. chief engineer at the Para disc coal mine, one and one-half miles east of this city, saved 400 men from burning to death in the mine yesterday.
 For half an hour, while flames ragged in the coal chutes few feet away, Mathis stood at his post, working the hoist which brought the men out of the l0O-foot shaft, where, at any moment, the fire was likely to break out. With hands blistered and hair singed by the furnace-like heat which beat on him. he paralleled the deed of Jim Bludsoe. who held a burning steam boats nozzle agin the bank till the last galloOt was ashore"
 When all the men had been hoisted out or climbed to safety through the air shaft, Mathis stag gered a few steps from the mouth of the mine and fell unconscious. He was carried to his home. Physi- cians say he is in a critical condi- ton.
 \ moment after Mathis had left his engine the cable with which he had saved the host of men gave way, melted by the intense heat.
 The tipple and two coal chutes were almost over the mouth of fhe mine When the fire was discov- cred in one of the chutes it was apparent that the chutes and the tipple would burn.

WANTS LOBBY
 PROBE OF ITS OWN
House Proposal for Investigation on It's Own Account Discussed for Several HOurS-TO Vote
 on "Wednesday.

Washington, July 5.-The House wrestled several hours today with a proposal for a lobby investigation on it's own account and finally de- ferred a vote until Wednesday. AL though debate had been limited to one hour, it ragged throughout the entire sitting and ignoring the warnings of Republican Leader Mann to get down to business, ad- journment was forced by lack of quorum.
 A resolution from the rules com mittee proposed not only an inyes- tieation by a committee of seven of Martin \. MulhalIs charges that congressman had been influenced by the lobbying of the National AssO- citation of Manufacturers, but a probe of the whole lobby situation.
 Before he House adjourned all amendmeut, accepted had been to broaden the scope of the inyestiga- tion. The House investigation probably will be distinct from the Senate.
 The mos noteworthy feature was the elimination of the provisions for the employment of counsel by the House committee.
 Representative Levy of New York opposed to the investigation, sug- gested that Samuel Untermeyer, counsel for the money trust com mittee, might be contemplated. Henry of Texas defended Unter- meyer and lauded his work. Fin ally the provision for counsel was dropped. Mr. Henry next Wednes- tlay will renew the fight for coun- sell
 An unsuccessful effort was made to limit the time for report of the committee to September the first, next, and an amendment was still pending to specifically require all hearings to be open. when the ses- sion adjourned.

TARIFF MAY BE
 PASSED IN AUGUST
Opponents Will Have Five Weeks to Crate on the Measure Sena- tor LaFOllette May Talk
 Week.

Washington, July 5.-With the tariff bill completed by the Senate caucus and the only work remain ing for that body today being the adoption of a resolution which will bind the majority members to the bill. the Senate leaders were cer- tain tonight that the measure would be in the hands of the president by the latter part of August. Five weeks is the time Senator Simmons, who will have the bill in charge, believes will be needed. Republi- can senators. however, insist that it will take much more time.
 Senator LaFollette has intimated that he will probably talk for near ly a week. and every member of the minority on the finance com mittee will offer amendments.
 Because there were only 3l sena- tor, at tOday's session of the eau GUS. action on the binding resolu- ton was deferred. There will be opposition to its passage on Mon day and Senator Simmons is en- deayorIng 10 have it so framed that the sting will be taken out and the members who openly assert that they don't want their hands tied will be modified.
 Ii is admitted that the two Loui- siaua senators cannot be bound by the caucus. as they are already on record as intending to vote against the bill on account of the sugar provisions. and some of the other senators say that all of the other majority members can be depended on to vote for the bill. on the ground of party policy, and that binding resolution would prove a mistake. However. it is certain the resolution will come up Monday and will be passed in some form.
 The completed bill as it stands today. is more of a downward re- vision than the original Underwood measure.
 The bill is certain of passage" " said Senator Simmons tonight. and I believe that the fears that busi- ness will be disturbed when if be- comes a law are not well founded"

IS CRUEL AND CROOKED
State Humane Officer Tells More of Man Convicted of Whipping
 Child So 1t Died.

Little Rock, July 5.-When the case of pr. l. B. billiard, superin- tenden' of the Arkansas Children's Home, i. Investigated, State Hu- mane Officer Rankin of Little Rock will probably be a strong witness against him. Dlllard is accused of whipping a two-year-old infant, a charge of the home, so seriously that it died recently in Conway. Rankin preferred the charges against billiard which led to his conviction in a Little Rock justice court.
 billiard is an imposter," declares Rankin. and traffics in the plac- ing of orphans in his care. He charges for taking infants, where there is a chance to collect any thing, and then charges the per sons who desire to adopt. In sev- eral cases he has collected more than twice for the person taking the children did not keep them. and then he had them to collect on again when they were placed.
 When I had billiard convicted for whipping the child, my busi- ness with him ceased. but I have considerable evidence I can give the investigators if it is informa- ton they want. The child may not have died from the effects of the whipping, or billiard. as he claims. may not have cruelty whipped it. but anyway the stripes were there to show for themselves seven days after he whipping, when the trial took place. billiard took a change of venue from three courts before we finally secured a trial"
