CATTLE Receipts of cattle this morning
were quite moderate, but plenty large
enough to meet the requirements of trio
market. The run consisted very largely of
cow stuff and feeders. In spite of the mean
close yesterday, the most of yesterday's
receipts were disposed of so that there
were very few stale cattle in first hands
this morning.
The supply of beef steers was very small,
there being comparatively few steers of any
kind that would do for killers. Still the
demand was limited, so that the offerings
were, sufficient to supply the requirements
of the trade. The market from start to
finish was extremely slow and dull, and
ss low, or lower prices were paid than at
the cloae of yesterday's market.
There was some little trade in cows and
heifers, but the demand was limited and
the market extremely dull throughout the
session. The prices psld were about as low
as any time lajt week. Even the good
cowa and heifers were hard to move, and
the common and inferior grades were mors
or less of a drag on the market.
A few feeders were selling, but the trade
was very dull throughout and prices ex
tremely weak, even at yesterday's worst
time.

HOGS Receipts of hogs this morning
were very light but so was the demand
The market opened In a very demoralised
condition and continued that way through

market points were most discouraging snd
buyers-seemed at a loss to know what to
do. The result was that the market right
Irom the start was 20c to ks low.r t"un

Hi....
SHEEP-There waa a Detter fellng in the
sheen barn this mornlna. Rriin.
, light and buyers all seemed to want a few
luads.- This was especially true of the pack
ers. who were extremely poor buyers yes
terday. They seemed to have killing orders
snd were all out early looking lor fat stuff
The result waa that everything auitable for
killing met with quite ready sale al steady
prices. Some fair to good lambs M up to
$5 75. with sheep and yearlings at $4 75.
There were also quite a good many coun
try buyers In looking for feeders and there
was a little more life to that branch of the
traed than yesterday; still prices could not
be quoted any higher. There Is unquestion
ably a good dtimand for feeder aheep and
lambs, and the market would undocbtedlv
be active at the present time were it po.
aible for the country to secure the money
with which to buy the sti ff. Some of the
big range outfits who are in a position to
do so have arranged through their commis
sion firms te lake the purchasers' notes
fur tlitt stuff, thus c-srrjli.g (he feeders
themselves Instead of lravinK tha bkiiku in
' carry them as In previous yesrs. This
I atlloii oa tits J. ei l u( euuie of the range
companies Is helping to clesn tip the sur
plus feeders.
In spite of the dullness noted yesterday,
when the market finally closed last night,
practically everything In sight had been
sold and weighed tip, and that, too. In the
face of larire receipts.

Reetltotlon.
The mikado and Uncle Sam will not en
gage In war.
Having been worked up by the wholo
secret service force of the federal govern
ment In Omaha, requiring months for Its
completion, dragging Its length through the
varied stages of court routine and inflaming
Japanese minds to the extent of suggesting
a possible International breach between
Uncle Sam and the mikado, the case of K.
Kahawara, the Union Paclflo track walker,
who found $500 that had been dropped from
a mail sack, has at last culminated In a
fine of Colonel Kahawara In the sum of
$50. This sentence ws Imposed upon the
son of the orient by Judge W. II. Mungef
of the United States district cdurt Monday,
when the flowery kingdom boy ( pleaded
guilty.
Kahawara found l'"0 along the Union
Pacific track near Big Springs last Feb
ruary. The money was part of the con
tents of a mail sack that had been torn
to pieces under the wheels of a train. A
registered mall package containing the
$500 had been sent from one of the South
Omaha banks to the bank at Lewellen.
Lewcllcn Is a star route station a num
ber of miles from the railway and the
mall for thru station Is thrown from the
train at Big Springs. But through some
accident the mall sack was caught under
the wheels and the mall was scattered
for half a miln or more along tho track,
the mall pouch being cut Jn two.
Part of Mall Recovered.
Part of the mall was recovered by the
postal authorities, and with It was the
fragments of three $5 bills. The following
day Kahawara, while walking along the
track, picked up a package containing the
$500, tho envelope being torn open by tho
wheels and partly mutilated. Kahawara
took his treasure to the bunk house at Big
Springs and secreted It. Several weeks
afterward the bunk house was broken into
and robbed by tramps and the tramps were
later arrested. In their possession was
found the three fragments of the partly
destroyed $5 bills, being the only money
secured by the tramps. These fragments
were found to correspond with the parts of
the fragments recovered by the potitoffice
Inspectors, and by this means the fact that
the whole package of $300 had been found
by the Japanese track walker was un
earthed. Kahawara confessed to finding the pack
age and was Indicted by the federal grand
Jury In May Inst for retaining the contents
of a lettor not addressed to him. He was
placed In Jail on June 17 and In the mean
while has mado good the entire amount of
money. He made restitution on the ground
that he did not want to cast any reflection
upon the Japanese race.
Gets Minimum "lentenee.
Tho fact of his being In confinement for
five months up to this time, and the further
fact that ho had made restitution of the
whole amount. Including even the $15 which
had been partly destroyed by the wheels
and which has long since been made good
by the Treasury department, led the court
to give the accused Japanese the minimum
sentence. The hearing of the Case was con
ducted through , T. . lnouye, the general
Japanese Interpreter for the Union Pacific
Railroad company. '
Kahawara paid a portion of the fine in
the court immediately upon sentence being
announced, and will Immediately go to
work to pay the remaindor. He was re
leased from further Imprisonment.

IMPURE MILK- YET EXISTS
Some Larking; Batterfat and gome
Containing- Cockroaches
Found.
From the reports received by County
Attorney English from the state chemist,
at least one Omaha restaurant ' has been
serving its patrons with milk that con
tained such a small amount of butterfat It
was barely perceptible. The restaurant
was run by a Jap and the chemist's
analysis showed the sample contained
only I of 1 per cent of fats. - The law re
quires at least 3.6 per cent. One other eat
ing house, according to the report, was
only .1 of a per cent better In the grade of
milk Jt was serving. The higher class res-
' taurants, however, run about 2.1 per cent.
In order to play fair with the restaurant
men the Inspector who secured the samples
Introduced himself to the man In charge
of the eating house and told him what he
wanted the milk fur. It Is the supposition
that the proprietors doled blm out the best
there was In the house. County Attorney
English has fourteen complaints ready to
be filed Wednesdsy morning against the
proprietors of eating houses.
8peaklng of milk and Its Inspection, one
first class eating place of Omaha has re
ported to the health department the find
ing of cockroaches In a can of milk de
livered to it. This was the third time cock
"roaches had bean , found In milk by lUt
place and each time the milk came from
(the same company, which Is one that
makes a blg-to-do over the purity of its
. , , , . ... . . .. .
product for which It requires high prices, j
In the seme can where the cockroaches
were found there were bits of rust that had
actually fallen off the sides and bottom of
the can. The eating house cancelled Its
contract with this milk emporium and then
put the matter up to the city health de
partment. SUPREME COURT SYLLABI
