The two new steel bridges on First street , north of Norfolk , will be a great help to the town and will make the drive into the city from that di rection much more safe and desirable. l''or some time the two old bridges have been condemned , nnd some time ago the now commissioners , together with Mr. Harding , promised to see that steps were taken to repair the evil.

FROM FOUR DIFFERENT WARDS In Quest of Signatures of the Largest Property-holders , Four Petitions are Now Circulating Ten Names to Each are Sufficient. Four petitions to the city council , me from each ward , are circulating ihout Norfolk In quest of signatures.

NATIONAL LIVE STOCK COMMIS. SION COMPANY. View of the Live Stock 'Markets at South Omaha , C. A. Mallory , Manager. South Omaha , Jan. 25. The cold wave that has been quite general throughout the couiury has given < u more liberal receipts of cattle , but the demand has been equal to the sltua don nnd prices nro 10 to IGc hlghei than die close of last week on all grades. The demand has been special l.v good for all kinds of stockers ant feeders , especially diose of good qunl Ily , and prices are the highest of the endro season. Good to choice feeders nro selling from $1.00 to1.30 , while fnlr to good steers nro bringing ? 3.5 ( to $4.00. The bulk of the fat cattle offered In this market is short fee steers and they are selling from $4.5C to $5.00. Good to choice well mnturet entile would sell from $1.85 lo $5.40 or well In line with any of die olhei markets. nutcher stock Is also In good de mand nl strong prices. Wo see no rca son to change our oft-expressed opln ion regarding the catlle slluntlon am still believe prices will work to r higher level ns the season advances. Hogs. Our hog market has rulet 'fnirly active nnd prices reached the hlglt point of the season ns it did h nil other markets the forepart of the week. These prices allured shipper ! to pay ? 5 00 freely at country points cnuslng liberal receipts , nnd with some of the urgent export orders well Illlod packers were more bearish and we have had some Ilttlo reaction froir top prices. The moderate receipts li Chicago , together with the strong ship ping demand , carried prices highei there so that during this week the Chi cage market for Iowa hogs has been heller than Omaha. \Ve again advise our readers in Ibis territory to watch the situation care fully and remember thai llio "Nation al" with Its fully equipped houses and departments In all markets Is In po sition to give unselfish information and lo render first class services nt all dines. The hulkof die hogs loday is sell ing from § fi.ISO to $5/15 , with prospccls favorable for good hogs bought to sell hero around $5.5 this week. The sheep and lamb situation does not show many changes , although good .stock Is selling readily nt the recent declines. Half-fat and unfinished stuff Is selling poorer than ever. Many ar ticle's have been published regarding the marketing of ihis class of sheep and lambs , but as shippers continue to send In so much of this grade , we again wish to caution our readers against sacrificing their stuff. Wo have every reason In the world to have confidence in die future of die market for good sheep and lambs , es pecially sheep. Eastern feeders have been shipping heavily for sometime , and are now buying half fnt stuff to hold until finished and sheared. Western feeders should finish their own stuff and realixe all thai they can from dioir work and feeding. Dest lambs are soiling from $7.00 to $7.10 ; voirlings : $ G.no to $0.10 ; wethers $5.00 to $5.75 ; ewes $ .1 15 to $5.5. ; ! A few fancy ewes have sold up to $5.50.
