matte and Consular Corps.

State Department officials are con-
sidering a general reorganization of

Nearly all the present ministers Pnd
ambassadors in Central and South

probably will be made in the cases of
Edwin v. Morgan. ambassador to
Brasil. and Hoffman Philip. minister

the diplomatic service by promotion
to their present positions, and may
be continued on the diplomatic list

Past Weeks Run Close to $4,000
Mark Killing Classey Mostly 25 to
soc Off-Veals Take Big Drops
Hogs Go DOwn-Lambs OF.

South st. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 10,
1921: The supply of cattle received
during the past week has been close
to $4,000 head or the largest for any
week this year. Total cars of all live
stock at about 1900 are also largest
! for any week this year, although
about 500 below the corresponding
week of 1920, when a new record was
established at this market.
Although local supplies of cattle
have not been as heavy as during the
same period of 1920, they have been
more than ample for the demand,
| which is at low ebb on account of a
much lessened and below normal de-
lnand for dressed beef, and because
of a curtailed demand for stockers
and feeders for shipment to eastern
markets: City butchers have also
purchased sparingly this week on ac-
county of next weeks Thanksgiving
holiday, when consumption of poul-
try will be heavy, and these factors
have contributed in bringing about
declines of 25 to SOC on killing classes
which averaged 795 pounds, and sold
at $1,000 to a local packer. They
were of choice beef breeding but
lacking in finish. A few other fed
cattle have sold on down to 1925.
Small lots of good grass beeves sold
up to $3.50, with one load on the
yearling order at $625, and bulk of
grass beeves selling at present from
$3.50 to $3.50, with conmonest kinds
down to $500. Bulk Of grass fat
cows and heifers have sold from
$500 to $3.50, a few light weight
young cows and heifers going up to
$500, with $3.50 extreme top this
week. Gamers and cutters are clos
ing at $500 to s275, bologna bulls
S2.25 to $500. Veal calves dropped
S1.00 to S1.50, closing top on best
lights to packers $3.50. Stockers. and
faedrs are finishing soc lower, some
common kinds Toe off, with few
good and choice stockers selling from
$500 to sS5,75 practically steady.
Common and medium grades are clos
ing at $3.25 to S4.75.

perience and adventure, charged with

vities of the United States MARSHALL
Leroy Duval is wanted in Canada
on a serious charge, but Leroy Duval
does not want to go back to the realm
Of his majesty, but would rather stay
under the protecting wing of your
Uncle Samuel and will fight extra
dition. The hearing will occur in
Plentywood before United States
Commissioner Belanski on December
18th, when he hopes to regain his
erstwhile liberty.
Leroy Duval hasa name suggest

a hero j some cowboy story or the
movies as the champion of some fair
dame, but he had bad luck, not that
he is SO much worse than some of
our very best people who constitute
the who's who on our. own Main
Street.
Leroy and some. friend by the name
Of Percy Verdever, maybe, or some
thing. nearly as musical, left the
hearth of their papas and the laps of
their fond naan1as and came over to
this side Of the line for a few happy
days, bringing with them the two
pretty Miles Blair, robbing the
cradle of a confding neighbor. One
Lochinvar got scent of the pursuers
and got a license and married his
fair lady, but Leroy fled. The girls

the young beendict was taken to jail
in Canada and shortly after Leroy
was apprehended and arrested near
Scobey but was brought to Plenty
wood for safe keeping.
George Cudhie, the eminent Scobey
jurist once prominent as deputy Coun-
ty Attorney of Sheridan equity, is de-
Tending Leroy, and a learned and
rhetorical legal combat is expected
before Leroy is taken back to pay the
price for his folly.
Leroy is Just turning twenty. Is
d mixture Of warm French and Span

eyes-just the type to break the
heart of the prettiest girl in town.
