dltlons prevailed today in the cuttle yards,
which mean that thcro was not enougii
on sale to nmkii a test of the market. For
the week le.elpts have been about l.fcn)
head heavier than thuy were last week, but
ns compared with tho samo week of lust
j eat- there la a decrease of about 6.000 head.
The market uu beef steers has been
father Irregular this week, fluctuated up
and down at a rapid rate. At the close of
the week, however, nrlcea arc in Juat about
the samo notches they were a week ago
Homo salesmen are calling the commoner
kind a trifle lower for the week, but In the
majority of cases the change is too small
to be worthy of attention, (iood to choice
steers re quotable from 5 to 15.75. fair to
good from 84.50 to 15 und common to fair
ironi :i.5i) to 14.40.
The cow market has also been rather un
even this week owlnir to the rapid changes
ironi day to day, but closing ptieea on the
more desirable grades uro generally steady
with those In torce 11 week ago. By the
more denlrable grades is meant those which
sell above 3. Those. that go under the $3
mark are a littlo lower, the commoner the
quality the greater the decline. Cancers
have been the hurdest to sell of all and
are fully 35o lower for the week. Common
cutters have suffered almost as much, so
that tho market on the common to medium
grades of cows may be quoted from 10c to
oo lower. C a liners and cutlers sell largely
iI.m.,1iiT to - 0 fHlr t0 "ood vows from
.'.50 to 8.1.15 and good to choice from 83.26
to 34.3ii. A prime oiiuch of heifers would
probably brlnjr a little more than that.
Bulls are n utile lower than they were a
week ago. lb bulk of them selling from
K.bU Io 13 , o. Veal calves are lower, prices
ranging from 81 to 85. 7S.
Ths stockers and feeders market was not
quite so brink this week ns last and n a
lesuit tne tendency ot prices has been
downward. The choicest grades arc not
far from steady, but anything on the com
mon to medium order and particularly com
mon light cattle are safely ifvfriioe. lower,
liood to choice grades may be quoted front
84 to 84.66, fair to good from 8T Ml to 84 and
common to fair from 82.50 to 83. W. llepro

eased later. Americans opened Arm at
siigniiy over parity. Improved further on
local support and Amsterdam buvlng mod
erately, reacted slightly In anticipation nt
a poor New York bank statement and closed
quiet. Foreigners were quietly steadv. Rus
sians were harder. The new Japanese loan
was in keen demand nnd touched "U nee
cent premium. Imperial Japanese govern
ment 6s of 19i4 were quoted 106. The an
nouncement that negotiations In regard to
the proposed new Russian loan had been
resumed had a good effect on the conti

The week closed with an upward tendency
In wheat and com. The May wheat
ranged between fl.l2H and ft. 14. whereas
Jrlday It went from tl 12", to fl.111,. Liver
pool closed with sn advance of troin 'liiWc.
A tip went around Frldav that Msv wheat
was to be put to fl.ao or above before the
cna or May. Gates wa In Chicago Friday
and conferred with the leading specu
lators. The 18.0iu.i bushel the eastern
ers are supposed to hold Is said to be more
man tne iiears can de-llver. The long In
terest, horn ever. It Is believed, cannot dump
its holdings without causing a serious
break, and a murket for the entire line
will have to be created. The Illinois rail
road and warehouse commissioner met
Friday, but were tinuble to agree on any
ruling for Oregon red wheat. Rrnomhail
estimates the world's shipments of wheat
at I0.0l0.ono bushels. The Australian ship
ments are 9S4.0OO bushel, against SVi.'sm
bushels the preceding week and 67:.OuO
bushels last year. 'Hie primary receipt
are a.l.0(t) bushel, against 315.000 bushels,
and the shipments are 231. OCO bushel
against 254.000 bushels.
The May corn ranged between tl'c and
48-i4c Frldav. Liverpool did not advance.
1 he break In corn of 2c resulted In shaking
out the outside speculators and leaving the
market in the hands of the strong pro
fessional, who can support the market when
an advance is due. The primary receipts
are. 678.000 bushels, against 39.000 bushels,
and the shipments are 522. 000 bushels,
against 2I9.no bushels. The corn clear
ances are 299,n3 bushels. AVilllam H. liart
lett says:
"Accepting- the government estimate on
the corn crop and farmers' reserves of
COD! tn h. fm- r m r a. - ...... .1 . , v" r a. .A
. ... ....-.,, ry rr . m, , , l .1,,- "... t
husnels more of com the flrt four month
or tne crop year than we did during the
correpondlng period of the previous vear.
If this is so It is sale to conclude that
we will consume at least lon.ooo.OOO bushel
morn during the remaining eight months
than we did during the same months las',
year. On this basis the farm reserves this
year will go no further In tilling our re
quirements than they did las' year, with
out msking any provision for the shnrtaire
of 30.iO.rfl0 c r 40.000.000 bushels in the crib
and tht Increased rxpurt demnnd. neces
sitated by a shortage of 00,01.000 bushels
In the Argentina and 25.0oo,ono bushels In
the Black sea shipments. So that, even
on the government figures, which every one
know to he excrsrlve. we have every rea
son to look for a higher range of price
than last ear, and on a fair estimate of
the crop, ssy 2.300.000.000 bushels, we are
very liable lo see some very fancv prices
before a new Is gathered, nnd It must be
remembered the next crop is not plantod
and has to run tho gauntlet of nil the
vicissitudes that always threaten the crop."

These boomers are tlie first hot spark
of the wildfite that will sweep oxer Ne
vada thl spring, if one may .lodge from
the nstonnillng sale i f ticket In the east.
A man from Cincinnati said thai in hi
city men are selling their homes to nft
money enoiiirli to rush lo Golcltlehl. The
movement In from the south Is marked by
thin cloud of dust down the desert valley
as far 11s the eye can teach, signifying
slow plodding freighter with bacon, brans,
lumber and groceries.
Coming In from the north are the or
secktr. hot with the lust for gold, often
straight from the railroad and law from
the east. The gold craze started f ir above
Tonopah, lipped over the hills Info tlold
tlelci, slipped dn 11 to Thorpe's Well and
into Bullfrog and heaven know where U
will bring up.
These boomers make one think of chil
dren on a sea beach; one finds a pretty
shell and they all run for It. shrieking
with excitement, until sonic one discovers
another, when ihey all drop the first and
rush away in the new direction. The fuct
is, gray old Nevada I whispering ecrets
of a hoard so rich that It drives men mud.
Surface treasure glitters so daszlugly that
bewllderrd lortimc hunters Isck the nerve
to settle down and tlig.
Here are seen raw "tenderffet" pros
pectors In derby hats', who wouldn't know
gold from Hiithnielte coal, racing with old
mining men. The writer saw salcuit keep
ers with groggerles piled upon wagons,
tolling tediously forward, throwing the al
kali duat of their teams onto hotel keepers
with their complete hostelrie piled upon
other wagoi s they themselves sitting on
top or the heaps, craning their necks for
the first sight of the promised land.
Besides these classes of boomers there
are representatives of the riffiufr r .11
creation. Goldfield Is getting a liberal sup- !
ply of the scum of the eai ih-a large pro- '
portion cheating lt any W4st on flttplo
ment agency transportation, ostensibly as
railroad laborers.
Gold mining, like politic, makes strange
bedfellows. For int-t.mce. a college youth
nnd an old man who Inst n fortune in
Spokane In 1893 in the bank panic who. In
his youth, had fought the Sioux and Chey
enne in the Black Hills and came out of
It all with fewer intet-csling reminiscences
than the sophomore gut out of a "half
hack'' rush and hi great feat of having
kissed a girl fioni Louisville who, It seems,
was very particular a to whom she Hlsed.
At dinner the guests were typical "rush
ers." One wa a New Yorker with his;
teelli and a golf cup. who said it was bet
ter living In the desert than brown stone
front, but despite his blase air ot elegance,
bin appearance seemed to belle any close
aciinalntance with brown stone fronts. An
other was n beady-cyed Individual with an
air of mystery, who said he would rather
be In San Quentln prison than Nevada.
"Tried both?" suggested the college youth.
The man Mushed furiously and never took
his eyes from the boy's face all through
d'l'ncr.
There was a German student taking
kodak picture, while th rest were tough
and ready fellows one see. In the ranks
of the army.
The people who will make millions out
of Goldfield, however, are none of these
poet- fools who are looking for piles of
gold dollars already coined and marked
a Hit their names and addresses, but ex
perienced mining men, who go In calmly
prepared to work and spend money In de
veloping their properties, OR THOSK
