Charles Norris, County Medical Ex-
aminer.
Mr.. Swanns activities yesterday were
confined to letter to Commissioner

took him to the prison, testified that he

3 Navy Men Blown
To Bits by Depth
Bomb at Rockaway

An ensign and two petty officers we're
blown to pieces by the explosion Of a
depth bomb yesterday morning at Rock
away Point. The bomb was dropped
there a short time ago from an aero
plane which had been doing maneuvres
in the neighborhood.
The three men killed were. according
to the Sd Naval District Headquarters
280 Broadway, Ensign Henry Parr Hyu-
son, jr., whose wife lives in Baltimore; );
Gunner's Mate Frederick j. Reardon,
whose sister, Mary f. Reardon, lives at
2773 Briggs Avenue, this city, and Chief
Boatswain's Mate Eugene B. Derrick
whose mother lives at Athens, N. Y.
They were members of a detachment
Of six detailed to remove the bomb
The party left the aviation station
shortly after a. m. in a motor boat
and landed at Kennedy's Dock, Breezy
Point Then they started toward Rock
away Point, where the bomb was
lodged
On reaching their destination the
three men who were killed started i'm
mediately to dislodge the bomb, which
was loaded with charge of 1870 pounds
of INT. They had been at work only
a short time when the bomb exploded
The three other men, who were some
distance away, were blown down by the
force of the concussion, but were un-
hurt
OF the ensign and the two petty Off
GERS who had been at work on the bomb
there was no trace following the ex-
plosion.
There was practically no one at the
Point when the explosion occurred ex-
cept the six navy men.
Captain Stanley V. Parker, in COM
mand at Rockaway Point, said the
bomb had been dropped short time
ago by one of the aeroplanes attached
to the station during the maneuvres.
In order to prevent accident to per-
sons ignorant of the presence of the
bomb, the six men were sent to re-
move it.

views before the Republican County

KANSAS CITY, December Goth
A reaction from the high levels that
| prevailed during show week and the
Christmas trade in Chicago, was eX-
| pected and prices for fat cattle this
week sagged sharply. Hog prices
fluctuated within range of so to rs
cents and closed with a moderate net
| gain. Sheep and lambs sold at the
highest prices of the season.
This Weeks Receipts
Receipts this week we're 55,91S
cattle, 5196 calves, 71,400 hogs, &c.

sheep last week, and $1,000 cattle, 49,
SO calves, 124,329 hogs, and 1850
sheep a year ago.
Beef Cattle
With Chicago prices this week
quoted $1.50 to $3.50 lower and the
lowest of the season other markets
we,e forced To- cnrtail prices. Here
the decline in fst steers was so cents
% $1.OO and t,ws 25 t., so cents.
Veal calves were off so to IS ca:.ts.
Heclines usua.i' prevail in the week
preceding Christmas holidays, and
he general opinion is that following
the first of the year there will be a
general improvement in demand.
Some prime 1900 pound Missouri
steers sold at $3.50, and other sea-
sonably fed steers brought $3.50 to
$3.50. Other offerings were "warm
ed up" to short fed grades that
brought $12.25 to $3.50. Some grass
fat steers brought $1,000 to $3.50
but the season for them is practically
ended. Cows sold at $500 to $11.50.
Those below $500 were Gamers"
Cutters sold up to $3.50. Veal calves
are quoted at $500 to $500.
Stockers and Feeders
Trade in stockers and feeders i'm
proved some early in the week, but
later became dull and prices are clos
ing rs to so cents lower. Following
the holidays an improved deand is
expected.
Hogs
Hog prices today are 10 to Is cents
higher than a week ago, about rs
cents under the high level Monday and
35 to so cents above the low point
Tuesday. The general market is
showing more stability than in pre-
ceding weeks, and indications are
that prices will hang between $500
and $14.00 for some time to come.
The top price today was $14.15 and
the bulk of the hogs sold at $3.50 to
$14.00. Receipts of pigs and stock
hogs are small and prices are firm at
$3.50 to $3.50.
Sheep and Lambs
Early in the week lambs sold up to
$16.80, but later fell back Is to 35
cents, and closed at a range of $500

LAUD EFFORTS OF

Prosbyt ,rians, in Children's Day Ser
vice, Celebrate Soth Birthday
Of Mrs Caldwell.

In connection with the Children's
Day Service at the Presbyterian
Church on Sunday morning, there
was birthday celebration for Mrs.
s. H. Caldwell who had reached her
four score years and for ffty-two
years had been a member Of the
church at this place.
Every departmer: of the church
was represented on the program and
expressed its appreciation of the long
and faithful service Of this most 10y
al member.
Mr. }. J. B. Johnsonius, on behalf
Of the session, reviewed the work of
the church for many years back, in
which Mrs. Caldwell has always fig
ured prominently, and emphasized
the fact that save for her untiring eff
forts the congregation would not now
be enjoying the possession of a new
church building, she having been
largely responsible for the erection
of manse some eighteen years ago,
the sale of which made possible the
purchase of the present church lot {;
and, saying that the session thought
too much could not be said or done
to show appreciation of her eff
forts.
Next, Mrs. Morton, representing
The Missionary Society told in few
we'll chosen words of Mrs. Caldwell's
work Fhere, extending best wishes
and added joys from friends and fell
low workers. .
Mrs. w. T. Young from the Ladies
Aid told how Mrs. Caldwell had al
ways rendered "first aid" when her
health and strength permitted, and
when unable to work herself had
been the power behind the throne
that had made others work. AS a
tribute from both societies, basket
Of sweet peas was presented.
Then Mrs. Harris Morris. or be-
half Of the choir, presented beau

tials, ". G.. lS39-1919.
