CATTLE There were a few loads of cat
tle on sain Hub mumir.g. but nut encug.i
) to malce a market. The auiea that were
: made looked about steady with Thursday,
i For the wees receipts snow an wcreajte
I over last w ek amounting to about l.iHJ
; head. out. aa compared with tne aasita
period a year ago. Uiere is a fa,..ng off
of aoout head. The demand from
a.1 sources tuts been of quite liberal pro
portlocs. and. aa a result, the tendency uf
prices haa been decidedly upward.
The receipts this weea have included a
limited number uf coraied sieeraaad under
the influenc e of a good demand the market
has moved stasadliy upward and a net gain
of close to a quarter is noted. A com
pared with the low point two weeks ago
tins is a gain of fully ii4;tc, and. in some
case, the advance has been even mure
than that. Short fed cattle are now sell
ing largely from I4.1W to 34.25. with very
common cattie from 14. n down. Fair to
god grade sell from Sa.25 to 44.UU. and good
.0 chuloe from 34. 'id to 15. Mi. S'lmetmng
fancy would prtibauiy bring 15.25 wiuiuut
any trouble.
The cow market has also been on the
up grade this week and is right around
a quarter higher. The greatest Ira p rive
men t has been on the medium ciaas of cows
wnlch a omit two weeks ago were aeiling
inund 32.40. These same kinds are now
crowding the 33. lie mark pretty nard. Can

Sailors' homa in this city and ha pre
sented a report covering seventy-two page
of a senate document with closely printed
matter. The British embassy charged that
"there is strong reason for believing that
this Institution, tinder Its present manage
ment, differs but little from a crimping
establishment, although It la alleged that
the building Is the properry of tha United
State government and leased at a low
rent to the home for charitable purposes
In connection with the ear of seamen."
The testimony shows,"' says Secretary
CorteJyou. -tliat the Sailors' horns at San
Francisco Is. In the main, a well conducted
sailors' boarilng bouse. The home now
appears to be conducted principally as a
sailors' boarding house for the profit of the
traperintendeTit, with incidental philan
thropy. I have deemed it best to transmit
th papers directly to cong-ressi to determine
whether its purpo is being fulfUiad. and.
if net, what disposition shall ha mad of
the properry. which Is valuable. "
