Tho iiuinber of largo deals was comparatively small, but the yards showed a stendy flow of business at an advance of 15 to 35c over yostcrdy's prices. This was especially true in tho cow depart ment, which has shown a very strong tono all week. The hog department bore a good volume of trade for tho mid-week market with. an advance of 10 to 15c ovor yesterday's prices, and two or three loads changed hands at 15.75. which was an advance of 1 25i: over tho previous niarketR of the week, but a goon portion or tins advance was born In the superior quality of the hoss. The bulk of sales were at a slight advance ovor yesterday's bulk and the : deinuod was strong.

NEW YORK, Feb. 8 After all It may not bo Fred Fulton who gets a crack at Jess Willoril's bothor- Bome title. There's a guy from tho far, far west wandering around mussing up the heavy-weights and he's having so much luck at it he's actually getting some consideration n a probable opponent for tho pacifist champion. Jack Dcmpney in his name and it's a good old monicker, recollecting that the famous "Nonparicl" toted It with him when he was consldei'id tho very beat of all heavy-weight. Jack has oodles and oodles of fights ' with alleged heavyweights and ban taken their measure with sonm ease. In addition he has clashed with ono.or' two roal good hoyn so-called, and has managed to es cape without annihilation. Dempsey's latest stunt was to pi;l- ri mm lab off Homer Smith, a nild-westeia gent of the ring, and ho did it in the very first round of what had been scheduled to be a whole even ing's entertainment. He niiido a tre mendous lilt with his work and Im mediately they began saying that here was tho man who should meet Fulton and really prove whether or not the Minnesotan is the lad to incut big Jess. In the course of his battling Dempsey has defeated Al Norton, a veteran of thc ring; Dob McAllister, Charley Miller, Coot-go Christian, Carl Morris, Gunboat Smith, Willie o Mcchun, twice; and Homer Smith. if you were away from homo on ' He also has met Andre Anderson , the rea or in the trenches, wouldn't and Battling Jim Johnson, goinv? ten j you like to get a copy of your home -' rounds with each of these accridll-1 paper from your homo town. ed beef exhibits without i'.inge" to ; . .
