General Baggage Agent. Caused by Fatlare of Stenographer to Get Ont Transcript of Testi mony In Time Base Ball Star Get Broken Noses. Diminishing shipments of cattle and sheep at the South Omaha market has brought the general average of receipts lower this week than for several years past during the corresponding season and emphasised the arrival of the cattle scarcity prognosticated by the stock yards people for some time. Taken as ft whole the local market Is said by speculators and exchange men to have been at a standstill for the last week considering that this Is the beginning of the shipping season. Traffic Manager J. A. Shoemaker of the Union Stock Yards yesterday summed up t situation In the following statement: Trading at the South Omaha market for the week Just closed has emphasised the shortage which It was predicted early In tne year would be encountered with the advance of the range shipping season. This Is the time of year when ordinarily the movement of range cattle and sheep marketward la very heavy, but at south Omaha cattle are In smaller supply than for several years and receipts of sheep have decreased heavily for the first half of September. Beef cattle have sold up to $8.U right off the grass, while country buyers have paid as high as $8.00 per cwt for cattle to take out and feed, which Is the high est price paid for feeders at South Omaha, that record having been estab lished there about three weeks ago In the sale of some Wyoming cattle from north of Cheyenne. The cattle which brought the price this last week were also from off the C. & 8. north of Chey enne. Taken all around the cattle mar ket Is Just about where It was a week ago. Speculators have quite an accu mulation of feeders on hand and that class of stuff I a little lower than last week, particularly the commoner kinds. The sheep market has been a hummer all week. Fat lambs are a quarter to 3Sc up, S7.& having been paid last Thurs day for several loads of 74 to 76-Pound lambs from Idaho; feeding lambs, $6.50 to (.60. Some yearlings went to the pack ers at $6.60 per cwt., while feeders brought them as high as $6.45. Fat wethers sold from $400 to $4.50, with, handy weights a high as $4.7$; ewes, $4.00 to 34.ZS, all classes showing constderaAi advance for th week. It begins to look as If It was about time for the prospective feeder to lay In nis supplies., for the fellow who is figur ing on a low market for either cattle or sheep for feeding will certainly be dls appointed this fall and If he wait very long may get left entirely. Fairly good run of both cattle and sheep I looked for for the coming week, but receipts are not apt to be liberal enough to force muon reduction or price. Kof receipt continue to b pretty liberal in compariinn with laat year, but there is a steady upward disposition of prices, best hogs selling; Saturday up to $8.75 per cwt., These were heavy hogs; good light weight packer would bring a little more. Hogs are selling mgnest at soum imiana sine uiv. Delay in Referee Report. Information received yesterday from Assistant Attorney General Ayers by Dean Ringer of this city attributes th delay of Referee Silas Holcomb In mak thg a finding1 on th ouster proceedings brought against Fire and Police Com mlssloners John J. Ryan and ' Joseph Plvonka to C. A. Emory, reporter of th district opurt at Lincoln. According to the order of the supreme court re eree Holcomb was to make a report on Thursday, September 12. It developed. however, that Court Reporter Emory bad delayed the transmission of the tran script until Wednesday, the 11th, when I was sent to Broken Bow where Judge Holcomb will writ his opinion and recommendations. , Under the circum stances, therefore, a report Is not ex pected before the beginning of this week. ! In South Omaha th delay has been the cause of several contradictory rumors regarding th probable - attitude of th referee toward the aeoused commission ers. Some maintained that the delay was an Indication of doubt On th part of the referee In favor of the commis sioners. The explanation of the real cause of the delay it is now understood will not tend to allay the uneasiness of th men who are expecting an acquittal. Bowline; Season to Open.

Will- Ti . lams. It was the intention of the city council to have the clery expunge from the annual report of the city treasurer all personal references and everything else except such facts and figures as per tain to the actual work done In the city treasurer' office during the last year. In the typewritten report presented by the treasurer to the council a number of pages were devoted to the delicate ques tion of the treasurer's own efficiency as contrasted with past officials. The polite official also expressed considerable will ingness to receive the visits of the auditors who have been sent to examine the municipal finances from time to time. When he learned that the report was not to be printed with all the additional com pnlgn stuff. President of the City Council Tom Alton called up Clerk Wheeler to say just what the council expected to have cut out of the report As Alton ls known to be aligned with Glllln and as he Is only one member of the council.
