CATTLE The Week closes with fho mui
small run and there waa very little stock
ii me yarus neia over rrom rriaay so that
there was nothing doing In the cattla mar
ket. ReCelDta for the waalr font- nn IN Jilft
head or substantially the same as last week
and some 5,500 head less than for the third
week of February a year ago. The gen
eral quality of the cfferlnga has continued
very fair with a liberal percentage of
rather desirable beeves and comparatively
fsw strictly poor cattle. . . .
During the first half of the week the
trend of values waa higher owing to the
moderate offerings and the rough weather.
Local dressed beef men were all good
buyers and prices advanced fullv KVnifce
tha first three davs of the week. During
the latter half of the week with unex
pectedly heavy supplies and blockaded
roads east, ths market weakened off again
and practically all of tha advance of the
fora part of the week waa fcst. Prices bo
Ing substantially tha same as ft week ago.
A feature of ths trade during the week
was the well sustained demand for the fair
to pretty good, handy weight beeves, the
strictly choioa kinds being rather slow sale
at times and a good share of the warmed
up and short-fed cattle going to the feeder
buyers at better prices than the killers were
wiuing to pay. frospeots are fur a rather
liberal run next week and unless there Is a
vary material improvement In the shtnDlna-
and export demand there Is little likelihood
ot any further advance In prices.
The market for cows and helfors ad
vanced during ths first half of the week
and by Wednesday waa fullv 2ta hlirkmr
and about the best of the season to date.
During ths latter , half of tha week
there was some decline but on both
butchers and beef , stock closing
figures rt In the neighborhood of lOUflSa
better than a week ago. Medium and com
mon cows for veal calves has shown littls
change all week but bull, stags, etc., are.
If anything a shade stronger than a week
ago.
Only a moderate business has been
In stockers and feeders during the week,
but as a rule ths demand has exceeded the
supply and values have advanced about 2To,
especially on the desirable light weight
grades.

on sale in the sheep division. Receipts for
the week number 2S.4H7 head, ss against
2.67 heed for .last week, awl 41,73 head
for a yesr agV The market, although
fluctuating considerably, continued In very
fair shape throughout the week. Early
m the wek prices declined moderately, but
later with a decrease In receipts ft father
strong bulge appeared on certain grades
only to again be lost toward the close of
the week.
Well rtnTuhPd western lnmbt tsld up to
?6.S5 early In the week, a somewhat huhpr
I price than was paid a week ago, but tlnce
rthat time values on lambs have declined
about 10c, thus leaving the market In about
the same condition as It was last week.
Fed ewes sold cnmcarsttvelv steadv from
day to day with r-ono the outside limit of
price and with the demand ust about aqua
to the moderate sutmlv of the week.
For yearlings ami wethers practically the
same might be said as has been mentioned
about the lamb market. Trices have varied
considerably during the week, but at the
Close there Is no material change in prices
as eomrtared with the week tirevlmia
Choice yearlings Sold up to 86.16 esrly in the
week, but later prices dropped back
silently.
There waa not much In the feeder H!vUI,in
to attract any great amount of attention
throughout the week. The weather condi
tions were decidedly unfavorable for the
shipment or sheep and especially of the
feeding kind so that the country demand
was limited. Howevr, the few offered
found comparatively ready sale at current
quotations, while the volume of business
was light. -

They aay since the report not out thai
Molr is really coming to America, his man
agera are simply swamped with applica

shouldn't be allowed to pick It nil.
The belief Is gaining ground that hv
104 ths American association will bare to
te reorganiaea ana lake in Omaha leaving
the Western league to be composed of the
smaller cities. At that the Western would
be a good lesgue.
Denver fans are getting extremelv Im
patient and Justly so, because Whits Wings
refuses to let them know who Is going to
manage the Denver team this year on tha
field. Burke and Tabeau both decline in
say when In Omaha last week. Talk of
Sundew Mertes wss dropped when White
Wings learned the old-timer wanted a real
salary. Now Harry White and Lave Croae
are talked of. It ts extremely dovbtfnl
if Lavo Cross c.. be pulled away from

MADISON. Wis.. Fee. 21-(Speclal.)-Athletlcs
at Wisconsin have again come
Into their own after the two weeks' rest
during examination week. Ths men who
will represent the Badgers have fared
pretty well, there being fewer conditions
than Ver and the outlook Is now bright for
ft prosperous yesr.
The bringing of the Chicago game to Wis
consin Is the one topic rt conversation
among the students, there Is grent rejoicing
as a result. Last year, when the posslbliu
ties of the Chicago game were discussed, IC
Wis jrenrraliy believed that this plum"
would be plucked cn Marshall field, so that
the announcement came as quite a surprise.
Wisconsin will meet Minnesota at Minne
apolis on November 1, the Chicago gs.trir
following week later. Some criticism was
hekrd In regard to the arrsnglng of two
gsmes within eight days, but It was the
only thing that could be done under the
clfcUmatknces, and wflt hit arollhd edUnllr
hard, as the other two teams meet within
the same period. 1
It Is not likely that more than one other
conference College gamr- will be scheduled
the other two games will be with state
colleges. Negotiations are how under way
for a gsme with Coach Catlln's eleven at
Iowa, but nothing has been definitely set
tled. Marquette college at Milwaukee nifty
be given a whack nt the Badgers, although
the thing Is still hanging In the air. The
students here are hoping that ft game ran
be arranged with the Catholic Institution
for they are tired of the taunts of equality
that emanate from Milwaukee. Wisconsin
could not hope to gain any prestige from
the game, for It Is commonly accepted that
Marquette does not make any pretense of
adhering to the eligibility rule,
Seven-Game Schedule.
It Is hoped here that the seven-game
schedule goes through, although the mem
bers of the faculty of the Badger Institu
tion are reticent about the matter1. The
possible switching of Chicago may decide
the balance In favor of the adoption ot
the seven gsmet. It Is not likely that ths
faculty here will change' their vote, how
ever.
The base ball men have beert hard at
work In the cage during the test week, un
der the direction of Coach Barry. There
18 an abundance of material out, most of
them trying for pitcher or catcher. Coach
Barry has hot been able to get a line on
the men as yet, but says that he thinks
the prospects for strong team are good
"Pinky" Walser, who was expected to do
the catching this year. Is out with con
dition, as la Jimmy Whlttler, ths 'varsity
third baseman. The latter may be able to
remove his by May 15.
Coach Ten Eyck Is now putting the crew
candidates through their paces and the ma
terial looks good. The men trying for ths
freshman crew are all husky fellows, who
appear to have considerable stamina. They
wlll'-be kept at work on the machines until
the Ice In Lake Mendota breaks tip, when
they .will be sent out in ths pair-oared
lgs. Gene Dlnnt, the 'varsity stroke, re
ceived a condition, but he succeeded In
having It changed Into an incomplete, so
that he wilt be eligible By the time hard
work comes on.
Relay Meet Entries.
Coach Mutchins has not received any
further entries for the relay meet which
will be held her March 14, but he says
that while the formal' entry blanks have
not been sent In, he has had many re
sponses from other schools and colleges
announcing their Intention of entering
teams. The track candidates are practic
ing dally. A welcome addition to the squad
came at the beginning of the aemester In
Paul Morris, the sophomore sprinter, who
s been out-of school for a semester. Mor
ris repeatedly tore off the dash In even time
last spring, and he will be the first cen
tury ten-second man since Charley Par
sons was here a few years ago.
The basket ball men are practicing each
night, setting ready for their games with
Chicago and Mlnnesqta, which will corns
within the next two weeks. Duffy Harper,
right guard, will be out of the game on
account of an attack of the mumps, and
his loss may mean the loss of the cham
pionship to the Badgers, although thers
are four other men out for the team who
can be counted upon for a good game. '
"Keckle Moll, the star freshman quar
terback, whose school work has been a
source of worry both to the rooters and
the coaches, succeeded In passing all his
examinations and wilt, In all probability,
be eligible for foot ball next fall. James
H. Robertson of Spring Green, Wis., was
appointed track manager at th meeting
of the athletic board. A. T. Holmes of La
Crosse, Wis., wss elected vice commodore
of the crew, and Charles F. Puis of Mil
waukee, assistant manager of the foot ball
team.
vAthletlo Diapate Threatened.
DKfl MOTNICS. la., Feb. . (Special.)
It Is believed here that the Iowa High
School Afliletlo association Is In Imminent
danger of dlsrputlon unions a local Bis
marck shall arise to control the situation.
Ida Grove. Bloux City and LeMars are In
volved In a dispute which has already re
sulted In the withdrawal of LeMars from
the state association, and which Involves
serious charges of breaches of the eligi
bility roles by the Bloux City authorities.
Last fall "Pat" Coffey left LeMars col
lege to attend the filoux City High school,
and, entering In the middle of the sem
ester, Immediately began playing on the
foot ball team. Ida Grove, winners of
most of th stats championships on the
gridiron and track for the last three years,
preferred charges of professionalism
against Coffey and charged the 81oux City
authorities with sanctioning the matter.
This was taken up at the meeting .of th
hoard of control of the association and
wa denied by Principal Whitley of Sioux
City, who said that Coffey wss a regularly
enrolled student snd was still In attend
ance on tho high schol.
The matter was whitewashed by the
members of the high school board, so I
Mars alleges, snd no action taken. The
Incident attracted state-wide Interest, snd
ths members of the association aligned
themselves on, different sides of the con
troversy, a general fight ensuing. It now
sppesrs that CoffeJ left school Immedi
ately after the close of the foot ball sea
son, snd was not In attendance at the time
of Mr. Whitley's alleged statements as to
Sioux City's good faith In the metier. As
a result, the LeMars school has severed
all relations with the sssorlatlon, and Ida
Grove Is said to be contemplating the same
move. Coming on the heels of the contro
versy over the location of the stste tragk
meet. It Is feared that ft general disrup
tion may ensue.
