CATTLE Receipt ot cattle were liberal
for a Wednesday, making the receipts for
the three day entirely too large for the
demand the way the market I at eastern
points. This was very evident when the
trade opened this morning, buyers appar
ently being up or so nearly filled up that
their requirement were not at all urgent.
The market on beef steers might best be
described as bad. It was hard work to get
a buyer even to maks a bid and when
bids were made they were away lower
even on th very best grades. Just how
much lower prices are Is a difficult mat
ter to aay as He market was so uneven,
bids la many cases being 26c apart. No one,
however, will deny that the general mar
ket is 26360c lower than the best time last
week.
It will be remembered that week before
last the market on cows and heifers was
quoted all of 7c lower. Last week tney
put It back on, now this week they are
taking It off again, shaving off big slices
every day. The market this morning was
In the language of the yards "rotten,"
prices were not only lower than yesterday
with the movement very slow, but sales
were at least 50o lower than last week. It
Is hardly necessary to add that the trade
ts extremely unsatisfactory from atart to
finish and that it waa late In ths dsy before
anything Ilk a clearance waa effected.
Although there were not very many
stockers or feeders among the fresh re
ceipts, the market was slow and generally
lower. Speculators had quite a good many
cattle on hand and the break In fat cattle
seemed to have a depressing effect upon
the buying demand from th country.
Buyer claimed in many cases that they
were able to secur cattle right at iio
lower than last week.

SHEEP Receipts this morning wer fair
and non too large tot th demand, but
ther was an element of weakness in th
trade, due to unfavorable conditions at
eastern points Lambs especially hav
been high at thla point as compared with
the markets farther east and there seemed
to be a disposition on the part of packers
to try to even up matters this morning.
Ths result was a slow and a weak market.
Lambs could safely be quoted 10c lower
than yesterday. A string of good westerns
sold at 17.38 without any sort, which waa
the high piic of the day. Thre were no
great number of feeder lamb m eight,
but the few little bunches here were sold
at rood steady priors, lsrgely at 34.36&4.60.
The best wether sold at the ssme prices
as yesterdsy, but the general market wss
a little sticky snd the tend icy easy. In
fact. It waa hard work to get steady
prices In all cases, especially where the
offerings wer not of a very desirable
kind. The feeling on ewes was generally
lOd lower, a pretty good kind selling at
86.16. There was good Inquiry for feeder
sheep and anything m that line sold very
readily at steedy prices.

NEW TORK. Aug. 14.-Trsdlng In th
stock market waa active and sensational
toward the close, when heavy losses were
registered under a flood of liquidation or
ders. 1 The dsy s developments were for th
most part distinctly unfavorable embrac
ing, as they did, announcement of receiver
ship proceedings sgslnst a prominent New
England manufacturing concern, whose em
bartsssment was brought about by lack of
working capital. Sentiment was also ad
versely affected by the failure of the treas
ury department to take action to relieve the
money market. The market held moder
ately Arm In th early session, but In the
final hour, under a succession of concerted
besr attacks, together with enforced liqui
dation, prices broke from 1 to 7 points In
almost all the active Issues, while many ot
th specialties fell with greater violence.
In fact the market was for a time abso
lutely without support snd stock were un
loaded with apparent disregard for values,
the closing was extremely active and with
a slight rally resulting from a covering of
short contracts. The level recorded at the
end of the day was the lowest. In many In
stances, fr six yeara. In fact, not a few
Issues sold aa low as In the memorable
panic of May, 1901. The day's business ag
gregated almost l.OOO.ono shares. Some of
the day's extreme declines Included: Amal
gamated Copper. 8; Union Pacific preferred.

class the losses were even greater, extend
ing 11 points In Third Avenue. The entire
traction group wss very weak. On a single
transaction Wells-Fre M"ck broke 10
j points and Other so-called investment Is
sues suffered heavily, t . mentions in tne
money market were nominally unchanged.
In reality all time accommodations were
stiffcr, practically few overtime loans be
ing made at less than 7 per cent It was
reported thst a prominent corporation had
sold a block of one-year loans on an 8 per

The bond merhet was weak In sympathy

ARBITRATION F0R BELFAST
London Board of Trade May Saecead
in Settling tha Bis
Strike.
LOTOiON, AUg. 14. When th House
of Commons met this afternooi ths
Irish members wanted the troops with
drawn from Belfast and othera urged
th neceaslty of a full Inquiry. Mr. Blr
rell, the Irish secretary, aaid: "The gov
ernment is fully alivs to the urgency of
this matter and la doing all It can to
secure a settlement of thla most unfor
tunate strike."
The president of the Board of Trade
was sending a representative to Belfast
today, tha trades unionists of Irelaud
having just notified him of their willing
ness to submit to arbitration.
War Secretary Haldane read a report
from the officer commanding tha troops
at Belfast, In which It appeared that on
of th objects of the military demonstra
tion was td separate tha Catholics and
Protestants. It appeared that In th
trouble at Belfast, as usually happened,
ther has developed a cleavage on re
ligious lines. The Protestants have
cheered and aupported th troopa, while
th attacking partlea apparently hav
been composed of Catholic.1
BELFAST, Aug. 18. Th authorltlea de
cided to keep both th police and the
troopa In the disturbed area of tha city
tonight. Priests say they can. maintain
quiet If the hated "peelers and lobsters,"
aa tha police and soldiers ars called, are
kept out of sight.
TWO-CENT LAW MAKING GOOD
Earnings of Mlssonrl Railroads Show
an Incrcnao Under the Sew
Rata.
ST. LOUIS. Aug. 14. Attorney General
Hadley, who was In ths city yesterday,
stated that Information to hi hand waa
that instead of th railroads losing money
under the trial of th t-cent passenger
rate, they wer Increasing their receipts.
He said that advlora from Kansaa City
were that at the union depot there the
average Increase of receipts dally alnoa
tha Inauguration of tha test waa 81,000.
At railroad headquarters In St. Louis
ther ia no confirmation of Mr. Hsdley's
information of a general Increase of re
ceipts. In moat Instsnoes where Informa
tion was obtainable ths statement was
that a net loss waa being shown gen
erally In the cash receipts. In one In
stance, It waa aaid, at one station, while
there wss an Increase In the number of
tickets sold of sbout 40 per cent, there
was an actual eaah decrease In the sta
tion's business of 28 per cant. Other sta
tions reporting showed an approximately
similar atate of affaire.
In general, it was the expressed opinion
that, considering the normal year-to-year
lncrraae of business which the railroads
have learned to expect with the country's
growth, the real loss to the roads as a
result of the test of the 1-eent passenger
law would be very heavy.

BUUNO OF ATTORNEY GENERAL
Onlnlon Is that Withdrawals May Bo
Made l p to Fesrters Daya Be
fore the Date of tho
election.
Candldete may withdraw from the pri
mary ballot on or before fourteen day
from the date of the primaries. This la
th opinion of the attorney general'a office
transmitted to the county attorney for hla
guidance. It waa made In response to a
query based on a letter Issued to a county
attorney in ths Interior of the state, which
Indicated such withdrawal waa not per
mitted. In his letter to County Attorney English,
Assistant Attorney General Grant O. Mar
tin saya the letter to County Attorney Far

the legislature Intended to permit with
drawals because It provided a penalty for
the punishment of persons who withdrew
for a consideration. Candidates can now
withdraw on or before August 11.
More Woo for Conaty Clerk.
Here Is some more woe for the county
clerk. Ssmple - primary ballots received
from the secretary of stste and attorney
general show a blank line tinder the nam
of each candidate for each office. At pre
vious primaries held In Douglas county no
such blanks were used, the old primary
law setting forth the form specifically. The
clerk has proceeded on the theory that no
blanks would be used and the form speci
fied by the stste authorltlea unseta hit
plans.
In addition to changing the form It will
practically make tho alxe of the ticket
double what waa expected, thue Increasing
both the cost of the tickets and the time
necessary for people to vote and officers to
count the votes.
The form as certified by the state offlclala
seems to be under that section of the
statute providing that primary ballots shall
be of practically the same form as those
used for general elections.
Bntler on Reajlatratloa Oncers.
City Clerk Butler takes exception to the
suggestion that members of the county
election boards may be appointed as reg
istration officers. He Insists that under the
law the registration officer must sit as such
and If they are engaged In any oVier work
the registration would not be legal. He
further calls attention to the fact that
the registration officers are named by the
city council, while the election officers ore
appointed by the clerk of the district court
and that It would be practically Impossible
for these powers to select the same men,
even though the law would permit a man
to hold two offices at one time.
