Statistics of lie,t... k heretofore have

able increase of cattle aud sheep, whol

The agricultural department make
estimates of the live stock ol the coun
try, but theae are also confined to stock
on the farms tyid ranges. Moreover
their count is made at a time of the

few young animals on hand. The cen
sus enumeration will refer to Juno 1,

of the young born in 1900, The ani

U really the key of the general mer

1, instead of May 1, seems to have been
fixed upon aa a date for presenting new
demands as to wages and hours.
Wheat crop advices are on the w holt
favorable except from the Central
Weft. Sympathy is shown with com,
which in turn has been influence,! by
the steady advance iu hog products aud
by the known smalluess of reaerves iu
cribs and in store.
Cotton goods are seasonably quiet at
first hands, but a fair jobbing bDatHM
is doing, aud retail distribution is en
couiagmg. Wool is ou the whole
weaker, but reports from the woolen
goods branch are quite favorable.
Cancellations reported are the smallest
there is record of. Lumber has shown
some weakuess, a widely separated
market this week pointing to not alto
gether satisfactory outlook in the build
ing trades, whether because of heavy
ailvauces in prices or ul unsettled la

While the detectives Were sitting
round the office, waiting for the ser-
eant to Issue assignment and uiake
I elulls, oue of the meu, an old sleuth,
I I hose hair has grown white sbadow-
ag criminals, suddenly gave a loud
ueeze that made the tu audesceut
glit vibrate.
"Great stars," exclaimed oue of the
ounger brood, "you are tbe moat
oclferous sueezer I ever heard "
"Yes. and let tne tell you something,
oy." replied tbe old UetectUe. "that
Ueeze of mine ouce cost me $10,000."
The expression of Incredulity iqKin
he faces of his hearer CtUMd the old
elective to tell the Story of tbe costly
Ueeze.
"Itaybl some of you remember," he
nld, "alsiut the police Iu Atlanta being
lotltted back Iu the tOt of two bank
ohher heading tbla way. They bad j
obtied a bank Iu the Last, and the re
Mirt was they were coming in Atlanta,
o meet and divide the sjhiIIs. Inning
PaTatad after the robbery tu mold
Dip! don, I was detailed to work on
be case, nnd It wruut many days lie
ore 1 hud spotted a suspicious stranger
topping at a boarding bouse in the
Ity. 1 kept a close watch mi hint and
. few days later another ruipldotll
baracter turned up and went to tbe
nine hoime to hoard. I knew the men
vere only impacted, and that to secure
vldellce upon which to convict them 1
would have to see them together
vlicn they divided the money or hear
hem discuss their plans wben they
bOttght themselves unnoticed."
The story was gelling Interesting, for
he "boys" In the detective ollice knew
hat uo matter bow uOCfa the old sleuth
ooled other people he never went back
in the "profesh."
"So I arranged with tbe landlady of
he iKiard hoiise," continued the old da
ectlve, "to lock tne me up the closet
ipeulng luto the room which my birds
K-cupled. 1 was afraid not to have the
loset locked, because the fellows might
lave pried around mid opened the
loset to be sure they were glone, I
vua to stay In the lucked closet until
he men held their meeting, ami as
KMMI as they left the landlady was to

Veil, the fellows met. and I was In the
loset all right 1 heard them talk

in the door and the landlady let me
