CATTLE llccelpta of cattle were largui
than a week ago by 1,116 head , and It was a
very liberal run for a Monday.
The supply of Buef cattle was light ! i
comparison to the demand , p.nd It was !
red hot market. The buyers were out carl >
and everything was sold nnd weighed lit
shortly after U o'clock. The prices pali
were a little stronger , especially on the
desirable kinds , most everything selling in
side the range , J1.20iT4.fiO.
llutchers' stock was also strong and ac
tive , and the few loads on sale changei
bands early. One bunch of little hellers
sold up to $1.03 , while $1.23 was paid for n
few head.
In thu feeder division tne situation was
not quite so favorable to the selling Inter
ests. The mosfdcslrable kinds of feeders
perhaps , were about steady , and the de
mand for such was about equal to tin ,
supply , so that holders did not find It
diltlcult to unload. The less desirable kinds
cattle that were a little coarse , were slo\v
sale , and the markih on such was easier.

YUMA , Ariz. , April 12. I > a Grand Fiesta
ile Ytitna wound up last night with wild
west sports ainl Spanish bull rtRhts , whloh
constituted a crowning feature of the five
days' revelry , The feature ot the show which
ilrew the crowds was the Spanish bull fight ,
headed by the renowned hull fighter , Captain
Carlos Garcia , from Juarez , ilex. Captain
Carlos Garcia anil his troupe of to ; cadors
and pleadores , Including La Carlota , a female
bull fighter , displayed wonderful skill In
lighting fierce animals , but a magnificent
black bull , I'orflrio Diaz , piovcil himself
almost Invincible and before he wns ills-
patched In thu third fight In which ho was
used he caught Captain Garcia upon his long ,
slender horns and ripped open the man's
jaw. Captain Garcia's wound may prove
fatal.
After goring nnd badly mutilating Garcia
ihe bull , stung to frenzy by the toreadors ,
charged full at the bull pen , and , though it
was strongly built , after several desperate
.UtPinpta he smashed Into kindling wood n
panel of the pen and charged into the grounds
surrounding the amphitheater , which were
filled with people. Many were Injured. The
roulette table , stacked with gold and silver
coins , was tossed high In the air and the
money scattered In the dust. Straight
through the crowd the enraged animal sped
out Into tin ; main street of Yuma , but for
tunatcly no more people were In the way
After a long chase and hard work the bul
was returned.

by the Insurance companies. The court
however. Immediately Instructed the grant

it found Intimidation or anything to ob
struct Justice to the companies to bring a
