HORSE MARKET
Boston Nov. 30.-The holiday week
cut sales down at the saie-stables and
the horse market vas quiet with a con-
siderable cutting Of prices to close out
the weeks offerings. Some of the deaf
ers quoted the market off from Sl5M 20
per head on average sales and while
sales of ordinary stock. there were also
some good values received for the best
horses, regardless of the general de-
preston in the weeks trading Bos-
ton business concerns seem to be plen-
tifully supplied with horses and the
trade comes in replacing WORKOUT stock
with few large orders. The country
trade took off some horses in nearly
all classes. but the demand was not
vigorous. Prices on western horses
shows not the least sign that values
will decline. owing to the continuous
outlet in horses for shipment for the
European war.
During the past week the best heavy
dratters sold at range of $300m350
with some of the heaviest horses bring
ing 1915 per head; medium weight first
class drafters. from 1915 a 800: wagon
and express horses, from S20O@ o65;
farm chunks. from s150d zoo; seconds
from s50Q165.
At the City Sale Stables-J. c. Keith
Stevens & Sweet Horse Company offered
3 express carloads of green horses and
there were about So seconds entered
Sales were dull with values easy and
the clearance while fair was not suffi-
Gent to clean up all the offerings
William Hurwitz offered two carloads
Of green western horses, one of which
was an attractive load of fancy horses
weighing from 120o@ 1900 lbs each.
The later lot sold well at satisfactory
prices. On secondhand offerings sales
were dull and prices easy.
Two steamers sailed from Boston
during the week win horses for the
British army. The Devonian sailing on
the 29th carried 100 remounts for the

The hearing last Friday before the
Watertown Board of Selectmen and the
Board Of Health voted unanimously to
not give permit to the Boston & Maine
r. r. to erect horse-sheds at the Wa
tertown stockyards and to use the yards
as a base for receiving horses to ship
for the European war. This decision
shuts off big increase of business to
the Boston & Maine r. r. and also %
Boston. Not only would the horses
bring a lot of business. but also thu,
other heavy shipments of grain. etc.
which would be pare Of the steamers

ested are in hopes that Watertown may
change her decision and let the project
proceed.

ROBBERY
One Arrest in Connection
With Robbery.

Last Tuesday night.at Sewanee
robbers entered the Bank of
Sewanee thru the University
Supply Store and blew the COM
bination off of the vault of the
Bank of Sewanee but one of the
Supply Store clerks, who was
sleeping in the building awoke,
and fired on them, Tightening
them away before they secured
anything from the bank but
nevertheless they secured 81 so
from a money drawer in the
store. We learn there was
great deal of cash in the vault at
the bank but by the bravery Of
the clerk the perpetrators were
Frightened away. The whole
town was then aroused and
started in pursuit Of them. The
telephone cables were cut
and the robbers made for the
railroad where they secured
motor and preceded down the
mountain where they dumped
the car off the track, caught the
uCowan Plsher engine" and
rode to Sherwood. Blood hounds
were hurriedly secured from
Chattanooga and are on their
trail at this writing and from
Indications they will be speedily
! apprehended IL ID to-bs haged
that they will be hnrriedly
apprehended for they may be a
band of desperadoes similar to
that one of Oklahoma which has
been committing SO many
depredations in that state.
