CHINESE LOSE.
After trimming the feathers and
otherwise disguising their mascot
eagle, the United States marines at
tached to the American legation
at a Chinese coast town recently suc
ceeded in matching their bird of free
dom to fight a previously undefeated
cock which was the pride of the Chi
nese sporting element.
Upon being placed in the pit, the
eagle went to sleep. The cock, full
of pepper, bravely handed his adver
sary two blows. This was too much
for the marine mascot; he awoke
from his dream of the snow-capped
Sierras and deliberately pulled the
chicken’s head off.
Our sea-soldiers anticipate no fur
ther challenge.

Union Stock Yards, South Omaha
Nebraska, September 19, 1916.—Th<
week opened with the heaviest run o
cattle so far this year, a total of 661
loads, about 17,500 head. Most of tin
receipts consisted largely of westeri
range cattle, and there were fewei
corn-fed beeves here than for severa
days. Supplies of cows and heifer;
were not large, and with a tolerablj
broad demand from both packers anc
outside butchers, the market was ac
tive and prices were in about thf
same notches as toward the lattoi
part of last week.
Quotations on cattle: Good t(
choice beeves. $10 00@10.S5: fair tr
good beeves, $9.00® 9.75; common tc
fair beeves, $6.75®8.75; good to choict
heifers, $6.75<g>7.25; good to choice
cows, $6.50@7.00; fair to gooc
cows. $5.85@6.40; canners and cut
ters, $4.50@5.75; veal calves, $8.00®
11.00; bologna bulls, $5.25@5.85; beel
bulls, $6.00@7.00.
Both packers and shippers started
out buying their hogs at prices thal
were steady to in spots 10c higher
Two of the packers left the most ol
their orders to be filled on the late
trade, and when the other buyers gol
through they started in to repeat Sat
urday’s stunt of lowering prices on
the finish Sellers, however, held on
to most of their hogs and succeeded in
cashing them at figures that were al
most as good as early prices. Bulk ol
the hogs sold at $10.60@10.70, and a
sprinkling of the best kinds as high
as $10.90, while the tops reached
$11.00.
l ho largest snoop anil lamb run of
the yoar to date was on hand Monday,
when 17:! oars, or about 47.600 hoad
were reported in. Owing to the large
receipts a decline in fat lambs was
inevitable, although about 65% of the
offerings were feeders, and many of
the sellers priced their tops around a
dime lower from the start. This did
not tempt buyers, however, and up to
noon not a load of killer lambs had
been cashed. Quite a few strings of
the best feeding lambs sold in good
season, many bands going at $10.25@
10.40.

THE ESCAPE FROM THE STRIKE.
The country has just escaped a rail
road strike which threatened to in
volve the entire country, which men
aced our national peace, our national
existence; which would have dislo
cated the entire social fabric and
might have led to a long procession
of ills so serious that to contemplate
them is abhorrent.
This has been avoided through the
resolute action of President Wilson.
The Herald, repeating what it said
yesterday, says today: All honor to
Mr. Wilson for having induced con
gress to pass the bill which led to
the rescinding of the strike order.
Of course, it was not everything
the president desired. Of course, it
fell far short of what a majority of
the senate and house would have
favored under different circum
stances. It impresses officials of the
railroads as class legislation and a.s
establishing a dangerous precedent.
Small holders of railroad bonds and
stocks who have their all invested
in the railways naturally have taken
alarm. Rut what individual who is
engaged in criticising this act of con
gress—what editor, what railroad
president, what member of congress
who voted “no,” what economist who
would have settled the matter in
some way unexplained—what single
individual would have accepted the
responsibility of letting the strike be
gin?
The public will havp to pay the bill,
and the size of the bill will be infi
nitesimal compared with what it
would have been had there been a
strike. It is only necessary to look
at the food quotations in this city
on Friday and Saturday to gather
an idea of the extent to which the
country would have been squeezed.
Compensation and not confiscation is
the key of that part of the question
still unsolved.—New York Herald.
