Only 8S3 bend wcro reported In Iho ynrds , an ngnlnst 2,131 yes- terdny nnd 1.S92 on Wednesday ot Inst week. The sharp brenk of the two days pnt no doubt contributed lamely toward the reduc tion In the receipts. Today's receipts were made up llirpu'.y of Ulllln ? cattle , n considerable portion con- elating of cornfcd steers. In spite of the foct thnt the market ycstcntny touched the lowest point of Iho uenFon , It did not room possible to stny the downward tendency of values on fat steers. Chicago nnd Kansas City both reported liberal receipts niul sio\v or lower markets , whlr.a made ill" fooling v/onk at this point. Tneic were , however , BO few cattle hcio that It wan hardly po'sl- bln to pound prices down very much , nnd tlio really desirable bc.vcs , hindy fnt steels , \\hlch nio wnntcd by the buyer. " , Bold nt nbout yestcrdny'H prices , Henvy und rough cattle were Blow and weak nmt In extreme ca e SjTIOc lower. While the market wns not particularly nctlvo. nbout everything Wns will before the rlos . Only about flvo loads of coxva nnd heifers wcio offcrod on the mntkot , nnd ns there wns nbout the usual demand they did not last very long. The pilce paid were steady to ntrong1 , ns compared with yester day. day.Only n few Mockers nnd feeders were offered on the market , nnd they changed hands nt about steady price" .

The rapid decline In the market Is apparently having Itu effect upon the receipts. The country Is too bullish to tell many hogs at IPH than J4.00 , and It Is evident that growers prefer to hold their hogs awhile longer before s-lllnir them nt J3.SO In Omaha. On Friday of last week the hoes brought In this market $3.W410 nnd the clpts Increased - creased with the le.ult that prices declined rapidly , both hero and nt other maikets. Today the effect of the decline was plainly \lslble In the diminished urn here. At other points the receipts were large and the markets lower. With only n few hogs here nnd with the buyers nil wanting some , the market nd > nncod In tin- face of the decline nt other points. The market was fully Cc higher than Jenlerday's close 01 otrontf to Cc higher than > raterdn > 'a Bcnernl market. The popular price today wns J3.90 ns ngalnst J3.R5 yesterday.

HIDES AND TALLOW. Some persons , according to the Shoe nnil Leather lllew , hol.l the opinion that hides are accumulating at ccmntiy points since the com petition among city dealers to buy them has decieased. Natural conditions seem to fa\or the new plan of busing on selection. The tnn- ncrs are not anxious for hldts and there Is nn Incramo for dealers to scour the country In quest of them.

' ( Special. ) Frank C. Orton of Eddyvllle was a caller at the gov ernor's oinee today. H0 Is acquainted with the prcpent condition of J. B. Walker , the murderer the date of whose execution has been fixed for March C. While not passing an opinion on the alleged Insanity of Walker , Mr. Orton pays that the people of Dawson county and Its vicinity appear to bo afraid of the man. They reason that If his sen tence Is commuted to Imprisonment for life he will In some way contrive to escape and kill some one clss. They appear to regard him as a very vindictive Individual. Mr. Orton said that Mra. Stevens , wife of Wal ker's victim , had told him that only the day before Walker killed Stevens ho had threat ened his life , and that she had urged her husband to exercise a good deal cf caution. Stevens , on the contrary , had appeared to make light of Walker's threat. C. R Stringer callel on Governor Holcomb today. Ho was formerly- Inmate of the Norfolk Hospital for the Insane. His mis sion to the governor was to urge the theory that a large majority ot those now confined In Insane asylums In Nebraska are not crazy. Ho said that all the present Inmates cf the Norfolk asylum were perfectly snno. and that their Incarceration was an Injustice which ho would like to pie speedily remedied. Stringer presented a petition making serious charges agilnst the officials of the- Norfolk asylum , the Insanity commlwlonors of Daw- con county and alss against ofllclals of the Lincoln and Hastings Hospitals for the In sane. The governor vlsorously urged to make p. thorough Investigation of all the In stitutions In Nebraska , and as fist as he flndo sane men nnd women deprived of their liberty to turn them loose. Stringer Is 35 years of age nnd talks much better than he writes. It Is only when he "lakes his pen In hand" that his personal wheels achieve their extreme velocity. lllshcp Donacum denies the report sent out by wire from Auburn to the effect that ho had dropped the case against Fathers Fitzgerald and Murphy. The bishop says he haa received no word from the "higher ec clesiastics , " that ho has not dismissed the casa nor ordered his attorneys to do so. He adds that this report Is a "part of the pol icy of misrepresentation so assiduously pur- uued by the opposition foi the past three yearn. " * Receiver John E. Hill of the defunct Lin coln Savings hank has notified depositors that they should present their books at once and secure certificates from the receiver. In district court today the National Life Insurance company secured judgment for $18,919 on mortgage- Indebtedness of W. G , Bohannon. Othsr tmortcages ran the total Indebtedness up to. $24.300. Judgment In foreclosure for nearly ? 22,400 was also on- tcrel against the Bovd hotel propsrty , owned by Mrs. Kate Martin. A decree was entered up In several cases brought by the Inter state Savings association against W. It. Ptrlno and the Building and Loan Associa tion of Dakota against W. H. Walker , The decrea holds that ju.lgmsnt should only be entered for the unpaid balance of the money actually loanedJand not on the al leged block sub.crlptlons. The defense had bsen that these stock subscriptions were s'mply ' devices to cover the fact that usur ious rates were .be-lng demanded of bor rowers. - t , Omaha people In Lincoln : At * tho'Lin- dell R.

The first line to be con structed l.s between Nlobrnra and Verdlgre , twelve miles , connecting with the Elkhorn lallrcad. This g'vcs a direct connection with both Omaha and Sioux City without crosy- Ing the Missouri river here. It has been estimated that Ihc cost cf building the Elkhorn - horn lo Nlobrara would bo about $100,000 , while Iho trollc-y tTstem would be less than $25,000 , besides being more accommodating and less expensive to run. There arc three or four other points considered , the distance being from fifteen to Uvenly mllea each , but the most needed at present Is the con nection with the Elkhorn line.
