OUTSIDE BUYERS FLOCK HERE If DUme Doti Not Appear, Oae af Greatest Haas of Cuttle o Ree ard la Expected During fomlaf Daya. When the live stock market at South Omaha opens today It will mark the biggest day In the history of the Union Stock yards or the worst. In either case the stockmen and the yards will be found prepared, It la said. It all depends whether the yards continue to be free from foot"" and mouth disease. Every Indication strengthens the belief that the stock yards of Omaha and the feed lota of Nebraska will be aaved from the cattle scourge now ragipc over the ..country. Every precaution baa been taken and will continue to be taken until 11 danger la pasaed. ' If this happy condition exists next Monday when the market opens for busi ness, local men say they look to see the beginning of one of the biggest runs ever recorded at one market. Hope to Lift Qaaraatlne. Tills expectation la based not only cn the Nebraska cattle shipments of the sea son, but also upon the fact that many, if not all. shipments usually billed to Chi' cago will be transferred to the local yards by reason of the closing of the Chi cago yards. This Is, of course, with due reference to freight rates that may divert a email amount to smaller marketa. It Is hoped to lift the quarantine from all cattle originating la the westers half of Iowa. Already the closing of the Chicago mar keta has made a difference, at the local arda In the appearance of Chicago buy. era. Notable among the Chicago packing firms represented by buyers at the local yards ia Bulsberger -and Schwartschlld. They have maintained a local buyer here all week and yesterday shipped out ten carloads of top-price stuff which sold for 110.80. . . " . - Look (or New Plaat.

The advent of the "8. & B." people this week Kent the land men up In the air. Prob ably another attempt will be made to tiring them Into the city. Last night every precaution waa taken to prevent the entrance of the cattle dle - rase over Sunday. Stockmen and ahip- . fpera alike cleared the yards of everything, ending their holdovera to the safety of the feed lota. Spooner Bros., who had announced a big sale of prise cattle tor Tuesday, called the same off yesterday and the ' staff will not come to the yards until the danger of the dlseaaa haa paased. The cattle represent $26,000, and the aale waa advertised at an estimated cost of S3.600. -.7- 1 . . 1 . 1 -... - . tWI .r-acii nean in me nera tbiun i ew minimum. Proa-res af the Fight. WASHINGTON. Nov. . S.-Offlciala of the buieau of animal Industry enlisted today the co-operation of state officials in the fight to stamp out the epidemic of foot and mouth disease, which resulted In a cattle quarantine covering ten states. With the atrlct maintenance of the quarantine aa at present established, the Immediate destruction of all Infected herds and the close inspection of all sus- ' pected centers, the bureau believes it now haa the situation under control Practically every shipment of cattle which passed through the Chicago stock yarda during the last sixty daya la be Ing traced by inspectors, and Infected herds are being destroyed. Jala ta Federal Fight. State officials In the atatea affected by the federal quarantine have joined the federal agenta in their fight to eradicate the disease.

An exception, however, exists in the case of candidates whose residence la In Omaha. Republican candidates whose election Is Indicated by the returns to date are: Hall, for railway commissioner; Beck mann for land commissioner, and Thomas for atatc superintendent. Brown, re publican, and Miller, democratic, won the contest for university regents. Pearson, democratic, leads ' Hoaglar! republican, fot lieutenant governor, by only a alight margin which la likely oe overcome by later returna. wait, re publican, haa nice lead over Pool, demo cratic candidate for secretary of state. A feature of the late returna lies in the showing of Governor Morehead, who al though he received a somewhat smaller vote than in 1912, ha defeated Howell In sixty-nine counties and ninety-one pre cincts by 1R.07S votea, while In the same teritory In 191? he beat Aldrlch by only 13,384 votea.
