Oats-The possibility Of July oats

rush of buying orders and a 2 cent

Eleven markets received $500 hogs

day, 1850 less than a year ago and
e. 100 less than two years ago. Total
thus far this week 152, 900, or 5000

date I4.529,0oO, or 2,071,o0O more than
same period 1914 and 100000 more
than corresponding time 1918.
Cattle.
Rain hampered the cattle trade.
Corufed cattle are scarce every
where, but the run of grassers Is in
creasing. Missouri expects to cut loose
some shortfed cattle during the next
six weeks, but the promising market
is calculated to arrest liquidation ana
with grass abundant it is improbable
that anything will be marketed prema-
turely.
The yearling deal is active. A lot
Of decent yeariings sold around $3.50
yesterday. but they were quotable to
$40. Letting such little cattle as are
now selling below S9..0 go at this juno
ture would appear TO be mistake, as
the more weight and finish they get
the better they will act at the market.
New York received 1913 quarters OF
Argentine beef last week. but it was
promptly re-shipped to Europe, not
having been intended for the American
market, coming this way because re-
frigerator space was available
No longer are packers getting easy
picking in an abundant crop of long
fed bullocks dressing so per cent or
better. During the past week the pro-
portion Of prime bullocks has decreas-
ed in a manner calculated to convince
that the bulk Of the winter feeding has
been cashed. Not only is the proper
ton Of steers smaller than recently, but
a lot OF crooked stuff Is showing up.
Owing to abundance OF green feed
cheap steers are scarce. whereas
year ago the drouthy sections OF Mis-
souri, were flooding the market with
that kind. Packers are getting few de-
cent dressed beef cattle below $3.50,
and their hunger Is indicated by the
manner in which they court odd lots.
Sheep.
Rain .nterfered decidedly with the
sale OF sheep and lambs.
Increased production OF early drop
ped lambs In Idaho Is reflected in cur
rent market!ngs. There were thirty
five doubles of range stock here to-
day. twenty-nine Of which. nearly all
lambs, came from Idaho and six cars
from Washington. There We're about
twenty decks Of natives on sale and
packers had in direct consisrments OF
tveuty-one loads. nearly 800 head.
from Ohio river markets.

DAMAGES ASKED
FOR LIQUOR SALES
WIFE OF ABERDEEN MAN
BRINGS ACTION AGAINST SA-
LOON THAT INTOXICATED
HIM.

Aberdeen, S. D.--Mrs. Pearl Fitch
has entered suit against William j.
Wagner, a saloon keeper, asking for
$4,000 damages, and charging that
her husband, David E. Fitch. was
rendered incapable of making a live
lihood or supporting his family be-
cause of excessive use of liquors sold
him by the plaintiff.
1t is charged in the complaint that
Fitch is in the habit of becoming
drunk, and that the defendant and
his employees sold him liquor. notwith
standing hat they knew him to be
in the habit of becoming intoxicated.
1t is stated that Fitch is an insurance
solicitor and capable of enraing a
good living when sober, but because
of the liquor sold him by the defend
ant, he became incapable of support
ing his family.
1t is reported Mrs. Fitch will bring
similar suits against a number OF
other saloon men of Aberdeen. 1t
is also said that this case is the first
one ever brought in South Dakota
under the law which makes saloon
men liable for damages for selling
liquors to habitual drunkards.

FORMER MERCHANT CONVICTED
OF CONCERNING ASSETS liAs
RECEIVED WARNING LET
TIERS.

Armour, S. D.-Threats of per-
sonal violence against j. C. Canton
wine, for many years one of the best
known residence Of Armour and
Douglas county, are believed to have
1een responsible for his having dis
posed OF all his Armour property and
required Il section of land three miles
rom Clark. Clark county, TO which
himself and family will move at once.
Cantonwiae hes had a spectacular
areer. Last year he completed q
,erm in the federal penitentiary. at
LeaYenWolth, Kan. for alleged per
Jury and attempt to conceal assets
n a bankruptcy case instituted
against him by Il number of his
reditors. The case was one of the
most notable in the history OF South
Dakota.
Up to the fall of 1908 Cantonwiae
vas regarded as OF the big and
substantial merchants of the state.
dis retail implement and vehicle es-
ablishment in Armour was one OF
he most extensive of its kind il
South Dakota. and the business tran
sacted by him was enormous. He ac-
cumulated great areas OF farm land
and other property and was account
ed one of the rich men of the state.
He became involved in financial
difficulties soon after claiming that
| ON the night OF September is, 1908
he had been robbed OF $4,000 In
| cash. He alleged that at the time o.
the robbery he had in the little safe
in his store $4,000 in bills, $4,000
in gold and $500 in silver and that
the safe vas b~urglariZed and the
money carried away. .
AS the result of a hearing before
Referee in Bankruptcy Muller, O
Sioux Falls, the referee held that the
story OF the burglary was untrue ant
hat the claim of robbery was par
Of a conspiracy on the part of Canton
wine and his wife to conceal Tho
money for the purpose of ~defraudinf
creditors. Cantonwine afterward wa!
tried and convicted on the charge o
perjury.
Recently Cantonwine gave ou'
threatening letters sent to him il

citizens in Armour and warning hin
to keep still and not say anything

Aberdeen, S. D.-As a sequel to
the effort OF the Aberdeen Railway
company to secure a franchise to sell
electric lighLs and electric power,
the Aberdeen Light and Power COM
pany, which is at present furnishing
the street railway company with its
power. is circulating a petition ask
ing for a franchise to manufacture

purposes. The present schedule oil
rates of the Aberdeen Gas company is
S1.S5 per 1000 cubic feet, with re
auctions where over 10000 cubic
feet is used III a month. The light

proceeding On the theory that the
local gas and street railway company
are closely allied, and that in seek
ing a gas franchise ii is hitting at the
street railway company.
The street railway company claims
the rate charged it by the light and
power company for motive power is
excessive. The prospects appear TO
