AVell , perhaps KO ; but we do not all sec
the same side of the shield. Our vlstia
and mental angles are different. I have
witnessed , from start to finish , three ex-

In thu mo.it modern amphitheater In Mex
ico. I am gnlng to describe ono of thcci
lights , an photographed on my mental ret-
Inn , and Icavo readers of Thu rtco to de
cide as to the brutality and cowardice.
It was a bright , sunshiny Sunday after
noon , that of Marcli 28 , when Colonel
Strong of Omaha and myself drove .up to
the Plaza do Toros. Uy way of parenthe-
slii , the colonel , ns you Omnhans know , lane
no gingerbread officer , but the genuine ar
ticle , who rode at the head of his Wis
consin regiment In our "late unpleasant
ness" and has been walking around on a
ligneous leg ever since an a result of his
bravery. Inside the amphitheater a military
band was playing a we climbed the stone
Hleps to our seats , "a Fombra , " I. e. , In
the shade. A 4:30 : sharp a bugle sounds.
The double gates In the six-foot tencc arc
thrown open , and through the passage thus
Afforded to the 200-foot ring there enters
first 121 Cnpltan , the matador. An athlete
ho Is' , over six feet tall , shapely , with
broad shoulders , clean shaven face anil
wearing the Jaunty but practical dress of
Ills profession spangled knee breeches , pink
Bilk stockings , sandals , profusely embroi
dered bolero. After him come the eight
capeadorcs , nil similarly though less richly
costumed , followed by the two plcadorcs
on horseback , the latter armed with long
Etecl-polntcd poles , nnd their horses' breasts
protected by heavy leather guards or aprons.
Around the ring they march , acknowledging
the applause , until they come In front of
the Judges' stand , where they bow pro
foundly.
Again the bugle sounds. la on Instant
the cnpcadorcs are picturesquely scattered
around the ring , the horsemen take posi
tions a few rods to the right nnd left of
the entr.ince gate. El Capltan walks over
to the fence and selects a capa. The gates
arc thrown open and In plunges
AN UGLY IJULU
receiving In Us right shoulder , as It comes ,
a barbed shaft , decorated with the colors of
thn ranch on which he was raised , the first
of many barbs which he Is to feel. The pnln
maddens him and , spying the horse at the
left , ho makes a fierce plunge for him. The
picador , by spur nnd bridle , tries to bring
the horse's shielded breast to the front , but is
not quick enough. The bull strikes him
broadside , lifts horse and rider oft the
ground , at the same time receiving fierce
Jobs from the lance. Down go hcrso nnd
man , the horse not to rise again. Two or
three assistants run to help the fallen picador
nnd pull him from under his horse , while
the over-ready cnpeador engages the atten
tion of the distracted bull by flaunting his
colored capa before him. The bull charges
and the man , trailing the cape behind , makes
for the nearest shelter , of which there are
four about the ring , while another capeador
flannla another capa nnd attracts the bull's
attention to himself , and Incidentally , In the
direction of the other horseman. This time
the picador Is quicker and the bull strikes the
guard on the horse's breast , throwing him ,
by the fierce Impact of his charge , upon his
haunches , but doing no further damage ,
\vhllo ho gets several thrusts from the sharp-
pointed lance.
Again the bugle sounds nnd the two horse
men the ono first thrown having re-entered
on a fresh mount gallop out of the ring.
Tlila leaves only bull and men. Now one of
the binderlllrros advances toward the bull
with arms outstretched and poising In each
hrnil a dart. There Is a mad plunge , but In
vain , the only result being that two more
stinging barbs are hanging from the brute's
shoulders , and the man who placed them IB
eafcly out of harm's way thanks to El Cap
ital ! , who has now for the first time appeared
In the game , shaking his capo before the bull ,
Inviting n charge , which comes. For no
tdielter doth this athlete rush , but steps to
ono side with the llthcnesu nnd grace of n
panther and again displays his cloth. A second
end time the bull charges and a second time
Ifl avoided an gracefully , nn llthely as be
fore. A third and a fourth and a fifth time
comes the rutdi , hut the same agility meets
him. A caprador now relieves the captain
anil flaunts hla cloth before the now thor-
.oughly Infuriated animal. Off goes the
bcniit , so suddenly that all the man can do
la to make for the six-foot fcnco and vault
it , which ho does , leaving his capa athwart
the top. Ami after him , over the elx-foot
fence , vaults the bull , landing In a circular
passage , where the man gcta to shelter none
too soon. It was a close call , that , One of
the gates Is opened nnd the bull again enters
thu ring. Cnpeadorcs and bandcrllleros re
peat UIP performance until the bull has
eight or ten torturing bauderllloa hang
ing from his shoulders ami producing
additional fury with hla every motion. For
the last tlmo the trumpet sounds , and
Kl Capltan , the matadnre , walks calmly
out , holding In Ills left hand d brilliant red
cloth , about two feet square. In which la
concealed his sword , The bull Instantly
spies the hue , charges more ferociously
than ever , when , quick as the lightning's
flash , Just as It seems that this prlnco of
bull fighters must be Impaled on the ad
vancing horns , the sword Is drawn and , with
u single imiBcular thrust , from the- front of
the left shoulder , straight through thu heart
It goes. The beast drois | as though struck
by a cannon ball , right at the matadore's
feet , the latter not having moved from his
tracks.
Then pandemonium , sombreros , cigars and
cigarettes nru showered Into the arena. T.ho
matador bown and smiles as ho walks around
the ring , and , with tils assistant * , gracefully
tosBfs back the hats to their owners. The
cigarettes , etc. , he keeps. I counted seventy
sombreros of admirers In the ring at ono
tlmo. Meantime , two horsemen havu gal
loped In , lassoed the fallen bull and gal
loped out again , and the ring In ready for
thu next. From four to nix bulls are killed
at each fight , but the killing of ono will
BUfllco for a description of the whole , as the
general details are the name , thought the
animals differ In fierceness and power of
endurance.
Such wan a flrat-claw bull fight M I BAW
ft. Ilrutnl ? No moro no IJian foot ball and
a hundred limes more graceful. It wna an
exhibition of the ftkllt and nerve and muscle
and mind of trained men pitted agnlnst the
untamed and untamable ferocity of a mad
dened brute. It was an exciting spectacle ,
and there never wnft n. moment but what I
wantrd to nee mind conquer , OR It did.

The War department nt Washington It
gradually being Instructed that Omaha forme
as gael a market for the purchase of army
supplies as the larger cities of the coun
try. In consequence of this the department
officials recently Instructed Major Frank , E.
Nye , commissary of subsistence for the De
partment of the Platte , to purchase hereafter
In this city almost double Ihe number of
articles for the use of the army In the de
partment than was done In the past year.
This Increase was brought about through
the efforts of Major Nye , who has urged
upon { ho War department Oinaha'n avail
ability an a market. In response to these
efforts the department ofllccrs during the
early part of tills month Instructed the com
missary to increase the purchases. It was
distinctly stated , however , that the matter
was simply an experiment and that the
list of articles to be purchased hero would
be again decreased If It were found that the
goods wcro not as cheap and of as good
quality as could be obtained In other cities.
The list has been augmented wltti a con
siderable number of articles , particularly
canned goods , spiers and sundries. With this
addition , the amount of supplies to be pur
chased In the future , It the experiment Is
found to be satisfactory , will be almost
double the value of purchases lost year.
This will mean n substantial gain to the
trade of the city , slnco last year's purchases
aggregated about $150,000.
WATCHING THE RESULT.
The army ofllclals nro awaiting with con
siderable Interest the result of the experi
ment. Tltcy linvo held that Omnlin mer
chants could furnish the added articles as
cheaply as they could bo obtained In New
York , Chicago nnd San Francisco , where
they have been obtained before. Whether
this Is a fnct or not will be discovered on
May 4 , when the proposals for furnishing
the supplies will be opened. The advertise
ment Is now being published in The Bee.
There has been a gradual Increase In Into
years of the amount of supplies purchased
In this city for the Department of the Platte.
Four yenrs ngo the number of articles wan
very small and Included only the products
of the packing houses and the mills In the
Immediate vicinity. The list has been In
creased as Omaha's ability to furnish articles
became known , but the biggest Increase was
the recent one.
Army ofllclala maintain that It has been
entirely the fault of Omaha merchants tliat
they have not In past yeara shown that
Omaha was a good market. While It Is
true that for the majority of the articles
bids lind to be sent to Chicago , New Yorker
or Sr.n Francisco , yet the army people main
tain that the merchants of the city should
have sent In proposals , If for no other rea
son than to Indicate that they were de
sirous of furnishing the supplies and could
furnish them If the bids were received and
the purchases were made In this city.

CATTLE It wns a Saturday and a wet ,
rainy Saturday at that. Under ordinary
circumstances the rain has little Influence
upon the market nsldu fioin making the
cattle look unattractive , but today it was
different. There were washouts , and the H.
& M. and Rock Is'.nnd stock trains were held
back , so that the rain cut u considerable
figure in thu matter of receipts. At tliu
opening of the market only forty-live loads ,
all told , were reported In , but of these eight
loads were stock cattle on their way to
Iowa feed lots.
Hardly suillclcnt fat cattle were offered
to make any test of the market , and tile
trade was rather slow , buyers seeming to
feel that there was not enough to make It
worth their while to bother with them.
Still they bought them at about steady
prices.
The few cows and heifers sold a'so at
steady prices , and everything changed hands
readily , as Uie demand for that kind of
cattle seems always in excess of the supply.
Stoc'-rrs and feeders sold at the same
old prices.
UoJB TUB week closed with n pretty iVocnt
run of hogs for this market. th re being a.
slight gain ns conipaieil with u week nuo.
The market was just iibout steady , and
though rather slow the demand wns sulllclently
large to effect a reasonably early clenrnnrc T. > >
hogs rold the mine ns yesterday nt J3.iOfJ3.S5
principally. There were , however. Tower bales
nt J3.SO. so thnt the average of nil the Bales wns
a llttlo hlKher than yesterday.
The hog market the pun week wno rather bnr-
ren of Inteiesllng features , the sltnnllon fiom
day lo day remaining- about thn tame. The du-
mnntl WHS Rood nml the market fairly nctlve ,
and that could tie said of every day of the
week. As to values Ihe only vhnnKC of Im
portance was on Tuesday , when the market broke
dlfflOe , nnd from that time until the close of
the week It was nearly Heady , the average of
nil the sales showing n variation of only liftSc
per day. After Tuesday nil the hogs sold at
f3.SOT3.W > . and the most of them at the thren
price * , $3.fO , } 3.b2'i nnd J3.S5. The nnrrow
range of prices has been a characteristic of the
Undo this month , nnd in addition the lluctuntlons
from day to day nnd week to week have been
very light. The low days of Uie month were
the Sth and 15th , when the average price was
13.K ) nnd the high point wns reached on the

In the course of the forenoon lo 77c ami

the amount of bull news that was set In

of spot wheat offered to the United King

lUtecn minutes of this morning's hepslon ;
10.000 bu. more added Inside or Ihe next
half hour nnd May wheat selling nt SI In
St. Louis were features which made thltiRW
fairly bubble. Itnt. perhaps , thu most exciting -
citing news came from California. It wan
to the elfect Hint hot winds were swooping
over the wheat sections of that state and ,
with continued drouth , were greatly In
juring the growlnu crop , which would b
piactlcally ruined by n few ilaya1 continu
ance of such conditions. An excited ad
vance of Re tier cental In the price on the
San Kranclseo curb was regarded ns con
tinuing the reported ciltlcal situ Ulon of the
crop. The war news was nine a oonniderni'le
factor and probably accounted for the I'.iil
advance at Liverpool , which st.irlfd iho
local morket on Iho rampage. Shorts \viro
unmistakably alarmed and tne extent to
which they covered was shown In Ihe i'/K'
advance which took place during the morn
ing. Some reaction was inevitable , but Ihe
closing was very strong , with covering
going on actively to the last minute.
Corn was firm nil day , sustained prin
cipally by wheat. The war developments
and the fear of going "short" over Sunday
were also Influences and considerable coverIng -
Ing was done. Exports were liberal agnln ,
7'j7,00fl bu. May opened a shade higher at

closing strong at that pilce.
Oats were very strong. The wet weather
west alarmed shorts , as did the war news ,
and their covering made an unusually

inys : The New Yorlc hanks niudu heavy
mlns from the Interior Ir.iU week. Depos-
ts show the larKPHt Increase reported for
k-ccks paijt. The total deposits In fact huvo
teen exceeded only twice durlnx the pres-
nl year. A favorable feature of the Ktate-
ncnt Is nn expansion of * sr.9ooo in loanc ,
vhlch comes after n period of five weeks'
lerrease In this lU'iu. The loan ncrount
< still tl.fiOO.OUO under the high mark at-
alned March 20 , but In view of the season
ml this changed clrcumstanec-H of the
noney market a further expansion would
ot. ho PuiprlsliiB at this time. The opera-
Ions of the week have Inereased the re-
crves of the bunks $2,251,000 , tin- total
tnndliiK at XO.ZZ'.W ) , which Is Hie
mount of Idle money reported by the New
'ork ; banks for over a year past. It will
enuiro a considerable revival In trade to
educe tills heavy CXCVHH to normal
res , but the Import movement Is reachliiK
volume thnt may have an Influence on the
inrkct within a short time. The total Im-
iortH of Kooda as reported by the New
'ork , customs house for the week ended
iatnrday waa $14K ,2X ( ; , a Kaln of $5fWU'jo
ver tlie correspondlnK week hint year. Of
hit total Imports over threu-fourths wan
i dry Kood , suKar , wool and other Koods
ushed Into I lie United States In antlclpn-
lon of the passlnt ; of the new tariff bill ,
'ho export movement for the week showed
slight culn , but 11011111) ) ) ; to comparu with
Tiportu and as this ratio has bicii rnaln-
ulncd for pcvcrnl weeks , the chances of
old exports are IncrcatdiiK In proportion
D the adverse trade balances thus created ,
loston also reports excessively heavy lin-
orts of wool , and If the Imports continue
liu money market may find relief In tliu
tilprnent of sperle abroad.
