Portland, Oct. 3. There wag not tho slightest bit of excuse for any shipper of livestock to receive low prices during the past week, for the market could scarcely bo In better shape for the payment of good prices. It is not Idle talk to state that kill ers and puckers of livestock would much prefer to pay tho highest price iiuotcd In the market, for It Is In the highest-priced goods that the killed makes his money. There Is so much waHte about livestock of any kind that after it Is dressed it costs the purchaser more by long odds thun If he had paid the highest market value. While shippers certainly understand this and tho reason why packers In sist upon securing a better cluss of stock, they are not shipping any of the wanted livestock to market but are sending Instead a poor line of stock something that the killers al ready have a sufficient supply of and for which they can not afford to pay anywhere near tho top of the market. 1 1 lull Gruln Stops Feeding. Conditions in the livestock Indus try are peculiar this season, and this accounts in a measure for the very heavy blocks of poor quality sent In by shippers. With mlllfeeds at the highest value they ever attained In the Pacific northwest, and even at thU price supplies are Inadequate to fill tlic demand, the former feeders ate Inclined to look askance at this Indus try and wonder whether It will pay to finish stock or not The grass season was unusually late In putting In appearance and ending so quickly by reason of very dry weather, that the start of the season was almost about the erjd. Tho hay crop In sections Is so small that, nl thniish considerable supplies were carried over In some sections by rea son of last winter's mlldneM, there is not a sufficient amount to brag about and prices are well above the normal. Many sections will therefore be com pelled to Import hay and pay high values. lYescnt Prli-cs Are High. Present prices In the livestock ma-- ket are rather high In every line ex cept sheep, and feeders sec no way they can make good Interest charges by buying high-priced feeds to fatten heir slock. It Is almost a cer'tin'.y that livestock values will not ciimo much higher, but feeds continue to ndv.mee and make the fattening bus - ness a less profitable venture than In former s.asons. The hog market seems to have cached Its top for the Immediate fu ure, and during the week there was i reaction of about 10 cents In the price of top .stuff such as Is cvn- ng. Hogs have been so high during the past few weeks that they havj nl- most gone beyond a packing basis. Be cause of the high price, the wan's of lie packers are somewhat more lim ited. While packers are seemlngiv will ing to pay last week's high level for uell-seiecteil steers, the run of cattle In the yards during the past .lx days did not bring such high prices Qual ity, however, had more to do with It than any change In sentiment of buy ers. Following Is the general range of values on stock ruling n the ards for late shipments: Hogs Hist cast of mountains, $7 f F 7 IS; ordinary, JG.75; blockers and China fats, 6; stockers and feeders, 3.

Ten thousand school children In Chicago are Insuf ficiently nourished, some live con stantly on the verge of starvation, and many are not sufficiently clad to keep them In a healthy condition, according to a report made to the board of education. Specific instances of poverty noted In a house-to-house Inspection are given In the report, which Is regarded as reflecting on so cial conditions in Chicago. Many parents were found to sleep so late that their children went to school without breakfast. Tn one house, where the father was out of work and thd mother sick, the chil dren were found to have lived three days on dry bread and tea. In anoth er house six children reported that they had lived on one meal a day. An other mother, a seamstress, said she supported her four children on $2.50 a week. Numerous pupils reported Inability to attend school been use of Insobriety of their pnrents. WILL RAISE STANDARD OF ARMY EFFICIENCY. New York, Oct. 5. Captain Gwynn R. Hancock of the Const Artillery Corps, has been found guilty and sen tenced to be reduced 35 flies In lineal rank for using Intoxicants to excess, which caused his admission to the post hospital at Fort Hamilton after he had had delirium tremens. In the general orders announcing the finding Major-General Grant says: "Under modern conditions) there docs not exist In the United States a largo corporation epgaged In Industry, manufacturing or transportation that would retain In its employ In a posi tion of trust and responsibility a man with personal habits of Intemperance such as was proven tho accused has had. Tho standard of efficiency In the army, Instead of being lower, should bo higher than .that required by the most perfect organized corpor ation, and the evil effects upon dis cipline of the example of chronic al coholism In one selected for command Is too great to be tolerated. "For these reasons the sentence Is believed to be Inadequate, and there fore reluctantly approved. The de partment commander trusts this trial and the resultant punishment will convince Captain Hancock, If he de sires to remain In the service, of the necessity of complete change In his habits," FILER PIANO HOUSE WILL REOPEN STOKE. D. W. Thomas,-, superintendent of agencies for the Eller's piano house, Is now here for the purpose of re opening the music store In the Asso ciation block In the location former ly occupied by the Thornton Music company. Concerning the plans of his com pany Mr. Thomas pays: "Mr. Henry J. Ellers, our president, has of late given much thought to the business possibilities of Pendleton and has come to the conclusion that this territory Is of such great Import ance as to Justify opening up a piano establishment on as complete a basis as any to be found In the northwest. With this end In view he Instructed me to take three carloads of the choicest and most costly makes of pianos to be found in Amer?ea, and give n grand demonstration sale, showing how wo sell these superb Instruments at prices that others ask for cheap grades. Every piano In this magnificent stock of Grands, uprights, pianola-pianos, and other player pianos are brand new. Just from the factory, the three cars be ing diverted In shipment to this point, ".Since my arrival In Pendleton. I have gone over your beautiful city very thoroughly, and while I visit al- J ! most all points between San Fran cisco and Seattle, I have never felt more hopeful and enthusiastic about Pendleton, and the fine surrounding country. While we have enjoyed a large business In the past from this section, I am confident of a substan tial Increase at once." FORTY PER CENT OF FIRES . DIE TO LIGHTNING Fire Insurance men estimate that 40 per cent of barn fires are due to lightning, 10 to 15 per cent to care lessness, 8 to 12 per cent to overheat ed flues, the balance to other causes, including incendiarism, says Suburb an Life. According to the report of the weather bureau of the depart ment of agriculture for 1900, the to tal number of strokes of lightning In 1899 which caused damage was 5,527 the number of buildings Injured 6. 256, value of property lost $3,016, 520, number of deaths by lightning, 563, number of persons injured 820, number of livestock killed In the field 4251. Tall chimneys emitting smoke that carries moisture with it are more often struck than other ob jects, barns containing hay that gives off moisture by evaporation, and por us tree barks are frequently struck. For the same reason Ice houses are more attractive to lightning than other store houses. PRINC ESS WILL MARRY l"ORTUGALS HOY KING London, Oct. 3.
