Young Man Meets
Horrible Death

Word reached Arvada Wednes-
day morning of the terrible death
of Frank S. Weems, 20 years old
by being cut to pieces by U.
P. passenger train about 6o'clock
Tuesdayssevening. Young Weems
was braking on a freight train
and it is supposed he missed his
footing in attempting to board
his train in the snow. When last
seen he was inspecting his train
at water tank at Watkins, a
station thirty miles from Denver
and he told the conductor he
would ride the 0gine on from
there. He was not missed from
his train crew until an hour later
when a passenger train follow
ing the freight, ran over his body
which the engineer saw too late
to stop. A trainman's badge
on his person gave clew to his
identity and message ahead es-
tablished the fact that he must
have either fallen under his own
train or had attempted to catch
the caboose and missing his hold,
fell on the track and lay there
unconscious until the other train
ran him down.
Young Weems was the son of
Mr.. and Mrs. .Weems of 1870 E.
18th avenue Denver, and is sur
vived by his parents and three
brothers. He was we'll and most
favorably known in Arvada, hav-
ing several years ago lived, be-
ing employed and making his
home with +. C. Murchison, in
the feed business and also having
worked later for Chas. Graves
threshing outfit. He had board-
ed at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
William Benson, and his death
brings sadness to all who knew
him.

Free Beef and No Beef.

Toronto. according TO current advices,
is the highest livestock market in
America when quality is taken into
consideration, and yet this was to have
been a prolific source of beef, pork and
mutton supply at this juncture, accord
ing to the representations of free trade
advocates less than year ago.
Killers are actually securing the back
precincts of Ontario and Quebec for
enough livestock to replenish larders at
Toronto and Montreal.
The grade of grass steers selling at
1915 at Toronto would be eligible to
less money at either Buffalo or Chicago
The Mexican supply prospect is no
more luminous.
ireland Hampton, the Fort Worth.
Tex. authority, who has recently been
plotting the Madero cattle across the
Rio Grande at Eagle Pass. predicts that
little Mexican beef will be available, at
least until the herds of that country
which have been practically destroyed
during the war have been re-estab-
lished.
The proposition to import live cattle
from Honduras and other Central
American countries is not only chimeri-
cal so far as augmenting beef supply is
concerned, but would create a menace
to domestic herds by the importation of
disease.-Livestock World

Chicago, July 23-Hot weather cur
failing demand for meat had bearish
effect today on the market for all
kinds of live stock The most notice
able chanea was in the hog trade.
where prices suffered a setback OF to
10 cents per hundred pounds. COM
pared with quotations twentyfour hours
before.
AS might he expected the packers
are fighting the upward trend of prices
and the market is slow to start with
some held over each day, but with no
prospect of extraordinary receipts the
seller eventually dictates.
Everything into which a hog is con-
vertible Is selling like the proverbial
hot cakes. with the single exception of
lard. This weak sister in the trade was
mainly responsible for exclusion of the
SO hog from market circles for many
weeks No matter how the packer may
chart his cutting policy, and he has
been throwing the minimum quantity
of fats into the lard kettle. some of that
commodity must of necessity be made,
and while figures do not indicate bur-
densome stocks, packers jump at any
opportunity to reduce their holdings.
Cattle.
Cattle prices also slumped because
OF the inactivity of traders.
Advices from the northwest indicate
that the marketward movement of
range cattle will be late. Grasyis cur
ing. but growers have no incentive for
early gathering, as every pound of add
ed weight means more money per head
and gain making is merely a matter
of time, feed being abundant. Some
early Montana and Wyoming cattle are
expected at Chicago next week, but
the main roundup will probably not
commence until late in August, get
ting well under way in September.
Counting tails the run will probably be
equal to that Of last year, hut there
will be a deficiency in pounds of beef
owing to a large proportion of little
Mexican and southern stuff.
Sheep.
The market for sheep and la mbs was
rather quiet
