RT.7 13 441 1,729 CATTLE Receipts of cattle were of fair proportions this morning and included a very fair showing of desirable beef steers. All classes of buyers were out early In the morning looking for supplies and Indicated a, willingness to pay at least steady prices for anything that they wanted. Salesmen, however, were generally looking for stronger figures and the result was a rather alow trade. In the main prices aver aged up fully as good as yesterday for any thing at all useful In the way of 'beef Bteers, and although the movement was by no means brisk, a very, fair clearance had been made before noon. , .- 1 he Sllbulv of cows and hett'ers was rather small and, with the usual good de mand from both local packers and eastern and local butchers, the trade was lively right from the start, with to Ices steady to a shade stronger than yesterday for prac tically all grades. There was nothing very choice or fancy here, while on the other nana tne proportion or thin canning stufr was small, so that the average of prices looks better than last week and In fact the advance has been about l315c all around. ine supply ot stockers and reeders was very small and brlces showed no material change as compared wilh yesterday, Any- tning at an uesiranie sola iir(rc nigner than at the close of lust week and for decent stock the demand has been in ex cess of the supply throughout.

SHEEP There were only a few sheen and lambs on sale this morning and tho market showed no material change in any direction from that of yesterday, and for that matter for the entire week. The trade on mutton grades of sheep has ruled steady for the last several dnys. For lambs a slight decline was noted eurly In the week, but since that time there has been little or no change, so that outside of a possible decline of about loe on heavy lambs on Monday prices are quutarjiy steady an around. Besides a few fresh arrivals today a few loads were carried over from yesterday, but the demand was sufficient this morn ing to clean up the limited offerings in good season. Some 115-pound ewes brought $4.75, some fair Colorado lambs $6.60, also western lambs at $6.50 and some ninety-pound year ling at to. There was a moderate Inquiry for feeder sheep and lumbs, but the receipts were very limited. The demand from tne coun try has been fair and the few sheep re ceived during the week have sold In about last week s notches, so that there Is no quotable change In prices for anything.

David Van Ettcn, whose fifteen years of litigation over his properly at Twenty first and Hurncy streets U a feature of local legal history, virtually aslted a Jury In county court to reverse the No- braska supreme court, because, he says, Its decision In his case la contrary to the constitution of the United States. In the present case Mrs. Florence P. Leavltt Is asking $300 damages from Van Kltc-n and his bondsmun, John Reed, on a supersedeas bond ho gave when he ap pealed tho last (880 to the supreme court. The supreme court decided against him and Mrs. Leavltt began suit for $20 a month rental of the property during the time the case was In the higher court. Van Etten has subpocned City Engineer Roiewater( County Surveyor Ileal and other experts and will renew ,hls olTl de fense that tho inscription of the property In the tax sale certificate waa wrong. This was decided against him by the su preme court, but Mr. Vun Etten contends Is Is contrary to the constitutional pro vision that property ahull not be taken without due process of law. When ho examined the Jurors he created some amusement by asking each one of them if he would support the constitution of the United States regardless of anything else.
