J y - THE LIVE STOCK MARKET latest Quotation from South Onealia and Kansas CItv SOUTH OMAHA CATTLE Thero was a fair run of cat tle -and tho demand from packers being in good shape the market ruled active and full steady all around on anything at all desirable The bulk of the receipts were again composed of beef steers about seventy five cars being included in the of ferings Packers started out early and paid good firm prices for the more de sirable bunches The common kinds however were rather neglected and in some cases sellers found it difficult to get steady prices There were only about fif teen cars of cows and heifers on sale and as buyers all wanted a few It did not take them long to clear the pens The market could best be described by call ing it active and steady to strong There were not many stockers and feeders of fered and the demand for them was a little better so that anything desirable was picked up early at good strong prices Stock calves were ready sellers and the prices on that class of stock have Improved considerably this week HOGS There was a heavy run of hogs and as other points reported a drop in prices the market here opened 710c lower The bulk of the early sales went at from I582 to 58 with the choicer loads selling from 587 to 6 Tho hogs began moving toward the scales at an early hour and it was not long before the bulk had changed hands The light weights however were very slow sale and bids ranged from 582 down to 5 75 SHEEP There was a heavy run but the big bulk of the receipts was composed of Colorado lambs about 45 cars being Included in the receipts Packers did not seem to be at all anxious for supplies this morning and as a result the market was very slow and up to a late hour but lit tle stuff had changed hands What did sell brought just about steady prices with yesterday the 5 lambs of yesterday bringing the same price today Sheep were also about steady but slow KANSAS CITY CATTLE Native and Texas steer3 steady to 10c

Influence on Filipinos WASHINGTON April 20 It is be lieved by the administration that the manifesto of Aguinaldo will have a de cidedly good effect in the Philippines and in this country It will take some time for its dissemination among the Filipinos but it is expected to be of considerable service and to make more rapid the change in the situation vhich set in some time ago and has become Quite marked of late Especial gratification is felt at the unreserved tone of the document and the full acceptance it indicates of American rule This it is felt will bring to the support of the government many Filipinos who wishing peace have hesitated to assist the Taft com mission In this country it is expect ed to reduce the criticism of the ad ministration and to cause less discus sion of the general policy of the war in the islands and more consideration of the important matter of the best administration to be evolved for their government It is to this work that the Taft commission is now bending all its energies Aguinaldo now that he has accept ed American sovereignty probably will be given more liberty than he has enjoyed hitherto His services -will be used as far as possible in the pacification of the islands The ex tent however to which he will be permitted his freedom is for General MacArthur to determine with the as sistance of the Taft commission for the aim of the home government here will be to rest largely upon the views held by its representatives in the island Regatta Date Is Selected COUNCIL BLUFFS la April 22 The executive committee of the Iowa State Regatta

THE OCCASION Arizona Sheriff Proved Himself Qualified for His Office From the earliest times the office of the sheriff of Maricopa county has been the lodgeroom of the Amalgamat ed Association of Prevaricators until an honorary membership and an abil ity to shine in It came to be regarded as a necessary qualification for sheriff only a little less important than the ability to get enough votes at the con vention and the polls says the Arizona Republican Sheriffs have usually been represented by proxy in the meeting of the association and the proxy has always been some deputy generally Charlie Slankard who as a prevarica tor has always successfully held his own against all comers There was some apprehension that Sheriff Stout would not fill the bill He was sup posed to be too matter of fact Billy Moeur and Billy Williams were not be lieved to be any more able liars than the sheriff and Captain Hi McDonald as an outside deputy could not be ex pected to attend meetings of the as sociation Still in a pinch there was the ever reliable Slankard to fall back upon But Sheriff Stout yesterday proved that he didnt need any deputy prevaricator An old settler who had lived in the valley longer than any body was telling at the sheriffs office yesterday of the driest season the val ley had ever experienced There had been nothing like it before and nothing since None of his hearers had ever seen anything so dry He couldnt tell them how dry it was so they would comprehend Sheriff Stout was re minded of one very dry summer within his residence in the valley He had just embarked in the cattle business and had a herd of yearling calves There was a little water on his ranch but no feed within ten miles Every morning he used to turn the calves out so they could go to the nearest range where there was some grass but no water He accordingly hung a canteen filled with water around the neck of each calf One day he went out to the range to see the condition of the grass which he thought must be getting short When he got there the calves were feeding quietly on the bank of a dry water course All at once they were stampeded and wildly scattered in every direction bellowing with fear The sheriff went to see what was the cause of the commotion and found it to be a huge catfish which had climbed up the bank and got into a fight with the calves over the water in the can teens RIVER BOATS IN RUSSIA Strange Looking Craft That Ply the Waters of the Muscovite Empire Everywhere up the Volga and its hundred tributaries ascend the iron barges of the Caspian sea oil fleet while through the canals to St Peters burg alone pass annually during the 215 days of tree navigation thousands of steamers and barges bearing mil lions of tons of freight Every known means of locomotion is used from men who like oxen tramp the tow paths hauling the smaller barges to power ful tugs that creep along by means of an endless chain laid in the bed -of the canals and minor rivers dragging after them at snail pace great caravans of heavy barges From the greater streams immense craft nearly 400 feet long fifteen feet in depth carrying 6000 tons of freight drift down to the Caspian where they are broken to pieces to be used as firewood on the steamers going up stream In all there are 8000 miles of navigable waterways in the valley of the Volga or if the streams which float the giant rafts that form so large a part of the traffic of the rivers are included the mileage is increased to nearly 15000 or as much as that of the valley of the Mississippi Fifty thousand rafts are floated down the Volga annually many of them 100 feet long by seven thick and this gives but a faint idea of the real traffic of the river for in addition there are 10000000 tons of produce passing up and down the river during the open season Much of this centers at Nijni Novgorod To this famous market steamers and barges come from all parts of Russia bringing frnnrts to be sold at the great annual fair over 200000000 worth of mer chandise changing hands in a few weeks 30000 craft including rafts are renuired for this traffic they come frctai as far north as Archangel as far eask as
