He is now the “prop erty” of the “other woman" who wanted him. The bill of sale was drawn up by a local attorney and is now a matter of record. By the terms of the “sale” the “other woman” gave the former Mrs. Guy $5,000 In gold for Peiter, and his bargaining ex-spouse retains the property the two Jointly accumulated during their period of gypsy wedlock. Apparently Peter has been trans-i ferml thus before, for Mrs. Guy told the Attorney jvho drew up the papers that Kite “pAI $5,000 for him myself and jm u cheap.”

[email protected] 15.00 @15.70 [email protected] Some of the hogs sold a little higher, some a little iower and a good many at steady prices on Friday, but it is not expected that the general cost will figure materially different from that for Thursday. Extremely heavy hogs, averaging more than 323 pounds, were listed as low as sls, and buyers paid as high as sl6 for the fashionable light hogs so that there was a difference of $1 in prices, according to average weiht. The bulk of the business was in a range of from $15.30 to $13.70, and Included the good bogs averaging less than 300 pounds. There were several loads of light hogs at $15.75. and not many hogs were so heavy that they had to sell as low as sls. Pigs, in keeping with the scarcity of light hogs, were higher. There were several sold at the same price as tlie loads at $15.70, and generally from $15.50 down. Sows were lower, with the best sort at $13.75. About 3.000 hogs of the supply of 11,000 fresh and 3,400 stale hogs were left unsold. Cattle. The receipts of 1.300 cattle were larger than usual for this time in the week despite the fact that the trend In prices for several days has been decidedly In favor of the buying side. The conditions were no better Friday and there 1 were several cattle again left unsold. ! From the consensus of opinions it appears there has been a loss of 50c to $1 in prices since the beginning ol* this week and most of the good killing cattle in all departments are considered 50c to 75c lower. Canner cows and bulls continued about steady. There was another clump of 50c to $1 in prices of calves from $22 down, but there were few higher than s2l. The feeder trade was very dull. Sheep. There was a good Increase In the receipts of 700 sheep and lambs, and with few exceptions prices were steady with good lambs from S2O down and sheep from $lO down. Anew yard record was posted for a band of 100 western lambs, that brought $21.65. and there was finally a good clearance of the receipts at prevailing prices.

These cars will cost $195,000.00. The Equipment Company has sold its $150,000.00 preferred stock to J. F. Wild & Cos., and its common stock to the Interstate Public Service Company, for cash, to buy these cars. The Interstate Public Service Company guarantees the dividends on this preferred stock and the retirement thereof, agreeing to make quarterly payments to the Equipment Company in amounts sufficient to meet these requirements. They will make these payments as a rental for the cars so long as any of this preferred stock is outstanding. They also agree to carry fire insurance on the cars to their full insurable value, and to maintain them in good condition. The cars remain the sole property of the Equipment Company, however, until every dollar’s worth of this preferred stock has been retired, and it agrees not to convey or encumber them while any of this stock is outstanding. This provides the public with a 6 per cent, tax free investment which is a first charge against property worth nearly onethird more than the entire stock issue. The security grows stronger every year, because a substantial amount of the stock is retired each six months. It is the history of railroad and traction financing that a car equipment obligation, such as this preferred stock issue constitutes, has never been defaulted. A traction company must always keep its rolling stock free from financial entanglements. That fact makes this stock a doubly safe investment. ■ _. Personal interviews and correspondence solicited.
