The buy ing force appeared In the barn at about tho usual time, but were very slow to do business, claiming values on too high a level compared with ganeral conditions elsewhere. As sellers wanted steady prices It wan some time before any trading In either sheep or Ismbs took place and when the majority of the holdings did tr.ove prices generally were steady to easier. The supply was liberal for a Fri day and taking this Into consideration a good many traders regarded the market as fairly satisfactory. On the wholo the quality of lambs was, If anything, a little better than on Thurs day and Wednesday, but sorting was not quite tin heavy. Severn! cars of Idaho i - ... i tho high marks of the day ana Identical with yesterday's top price. Most ot the 7.10. hverythlnx did nut clear until late In the forenoon. The suddIv of need sheep, which consisted chiefly of ewes and wethers, was no better than moder ate and nothing; really good waa offered. inciuuea in tno xirsi suies were somo im pound Idaho wethers that were disposed at at 4.60. f eeding sheep and lambs sold in about the same notches an on yesterday. The demand did not seem quite as brood as during; the frre part of the week and as a result the trade lacked .the life that characterised the market on tho pre vious days. The supply of yearlings, ewes and wethers suitable for feeder pur poses waa extremely light, ns Is to be expected at this time, and the receipts of lambs were very moderate. Early In tho forenoon some feeder lamb were rood enough to sell at IS.C5, being the ton for tho day. Comparing prices with the close of last week, fat jambs are generally regarded as around 2S4J3SO lower, but feeder grades nro a little higher, tho advance amounting to at least I0315c. Killing yearlings, ewen and wethers are In about the same position as a week ago, while those on tho feeder order ore any where from 104725c higher.

Dun's Review to morrow will sayi Encouraging reports of buslnoss condi tions predominate and the growth of con fidence Is evidenced by Increased prepara tions for fall and winter trade. All the leading news continue quiet, but In some Instances the midsummer recession has been .of shorter duration than customary. The prevailing optimistic feeling ap parently was not Impaired by the re ported damage to corn and tho agricul tural situation promising gradual recov ery In spring wheat is accompanied by splendid harvesting returns from the southwest. The possibility of a strike on the east ern railroads now Is mora remote, but financial sentiment wan disturbed by the reduction In the dividend of a piotnlnent system, although such action was not unexpected. The revenues of a few roads show a falling off, but In the aggregate railway earnings continue to exceed the total of a year ago. Failures this week numbered 256 In the United States against 291 last year and thirty In Canada, compared with twenty four a year ago. nilADSTIlUIST'S TIIADU REVIEW Iteporta Present Mixed Aapecls of Situation.

As a result of the postofflco agitation friends of Congr-cssman C. O. Lobeck are up In arms over what they oro pleased to term an attempt to discredit Lobeck with his constituents. John M. Tanner, who Is said to nourish political ambitions of a high order, Is tho target for tho criticisms of Lobeck's friends. The Lobeck men say that tho congress man has done everything possible In tho postofflce agitation and that the at tempts ot Tanner and tho rest to work up agitation looks ns t the agitation Is alined at Lobeck rather than at the Post office department The Lobeck men In .Omaha and South Omaha say that Tan ner wants to go to congress In Lobeck's stead. Tanner formerly was said to liavo gubernatorial'' aspirations, but Mayor Tom Hoctor Is also said to havp Inti mated that prominent men had picked htm as a good looking- governor. At this pass tho postofflce agitation began again, the object of which seamy to be to dis credit Lobeck and put him in bod with Bomeone. Friends of Senator Hitchcock resent the attitude of the ngltators toward the sen ator over whose head. It Is said, things ) are belntr carried to his whilom editorial writer, William Jennings Bryan. Tanner's Interest In the postofflce mat ter, It Is said, has much to do with tho fact that Democratic National Commit teeman P. I Hall Iiob a brother cm ployed In tho local office. It Is thought that In a campaign for congress Commit teeman Hall would be able to deliver much assistance to Tanner If he so wished. Anyway Lobeck's friends say the agitation 1b to get Lobeck's place for Tanner and nothing else. Sheriff After Slot Machines.

Other places along tho lino will bo vlsttcd. A saloon near Forty-fourth and L streets Is said to have had a num ber ot the machines. The machines out In tho county are said to be plain open-and-shut gambling machines. It Is un derstood also that a number of road houses out In tho county are to be given n little attention by the sheriff. Sarpy Mills Is opon again and enjoying Its old ttmo reputation, It Is said. In tho city the police denied that they had received any orders to remove tho slot machines, although the order of the court had been promulgated. It Is prob able that tho order will be served on the commissioners, who In turn will have to see that tho mandate Is executed by the police. Rumors about the city Indicate that tin gambling Joints expect to opon up Au gust 1. Certain of tho gamblers, It Is said, claim they have been assured that they will control the gambling situation.
