says:—There Is considerable activity In wool 
notwithstanding the adverse reports from the 
Eastern markets where the demand from man¬ 
ufacturers Is unusually light, and It is mainly 
supplied by the foreign production. The receipts 
here are rapidly increasing and prices have suf¬ 
fered a. further decline of louse, per lb the large 
decline being on tub and fleece washed which Is 
beginning to come In from southern Ohio and West, 
Virginia. There are liberal receipts of unwashed 
from Kentucky. Indiana. Illinois and some from 
Wisconsin. Healers are buying freely at quota¬ 
tions which are 60%. per lb. higher than they 
were a year ago. and are even higher than they 
were at the beginning of last winter and they 
seem to be quite satisfactory to producers. (Con¬

h»8 Been resold In this market at is l (332c. Pro¬ 
ducers got the benetlt of the higher prices and 
speculators had to stand the loss The fact Is that 
comparatively little wool was taken by consum¬ 
ers at the high prtces which have prevailed the 
latter part of the winter and Curly III the spring 
the trading being malnlr between Eastern dealers 
who are really responsible for running prices up 
to the point, which aft meted large Imports of for¬ 
eign wool w hich glutted the market and Look the 
edge CJT the market for the new dip. The Im¬ 
pression here Is that wool Is now at reasonable 
prices, but. If the Eastern dealers and manufac¬ 
turers hold off much longer it may go lower. 
Burry and fleece grown wool is relatively lower 
than usual, also dealers do not care to handle It. 
Wisconsin, Missouri. Michigan. Nebraska, Minne¬

MISCELLANEOUS. 
Monday, May 24. 
Who shall be the next President la the conun¬ 
drum that politicians everywhere and of every 
party and shade are now puzzling their brains to 
solve. The screws are being tightened more and 
more on the party machine. An extraordinary 
amount of lobbying and wire-pulling Is golngon, and 
voters are gradually being whipped into the ranks- 
This is about all that can be said of the politics at 
present. The Bame speech-making, lobbying and 
demonstrations, that take place in one part of the 
country or In one neighborhood, are repealed with 
only slight variations in all cities, towns, villages 
and neighborhoods all over the Union.... A West¬ 
ern national fair Is to be held at Blsmark Grove, 
Lawrence CO., Kans, from the 13th to the 18th of 
Sept. next.. .One thousand and nlnety-slx miles of 
railroad hare been built in the United states so far 
this year, against 391 miles for the corresponding 
period last year. ..A meeting of the National 
Watchmakers’ and Jewelers’ Association was re¬ 
cently held In Chicago. The president read an 
address In which he showed that 3,000 watches 
per day are required In order to supply the demand 
In the United States. The dally production from 
the several watch factories throughout the country 
Is as follows:—The Waltham, TIM); Elgin, 500 ; 
Springfield, III., 80; Hampden Watch Company, 
90; Howard, 20 ; Lancaster, 66; Rockford, 40 .,.. 
The new rules recently adopted permitting ferry 
boats In Eastern waters to carry distinctive lights 
In addition to the regular lights required, were ap¬ 
proved by the Secretary of the Treasury Friday, 
to take effect at sunset on June i..._The House 
Commerce Committee have instructed their 
chairman to attempt to pass the River and 
Harbor bill Monday under a suspension of the rules- 
The committee also voted to authorize Mr. Deuster 
(Wlnconsin) to report favorably to the House his 
bill “ To regulate the carriage of passengers by 
sea.” It specifies the amount of vessel space 
which must be allowed each emlgant passenger, 
the size of his berth, hospital accommodations, the 
carriage of explosive or other dangerous articles 
on emigrant passenger vessels, etc. . . A volunteer 
company of one hundred men has been organized 
at Leadvllle, Col., to go Into the Ute reservation 
All are old soldiers, under command of experienced 
leaders, well equipped and thoroughly armed for 
the summer. The leader of the expedition Is 
Maj. Kune, formerly of the celebrated Bucktall 
regiment of Pennsylvania. There Is u rumor that 
Indians have been seen In the vicinity of Roar¬ 
ing Forks, but It can be traced to no reliable source. 
— It is stated, that., for some reason or other, ex- 
convlcta have a decided preference for life in 
Chicago; the average arrivals of this enterprising 
class of society Is estimated at about 10 a day.

In this State the measure known as the tramp law 
became a law last week by expiration of the time 
lc remained in the hands of the Governor. By Its 
provisions all roaming beggars and all vagrants 
without visible means of support are held to be 
tramps; and any act of vagrancy by a person not 
a resident of this State shall be evidence that the 
party so acting is a tramp. The entering of a 
building against the owner s will, or the Injury of 
another’s property or person, or threats thereto, 
although short of actual burglary, felony or mis¬ 
demeanor, shall cause the offender to be guilty of 
acting as a tramp, and on conviction thereof, im¬ 
prisonment in the State prison athard labor for not 
more than three years will follow; but the lower 
grades of offense are punishable with imprison¬ 
ment not to exceed six months. Any person may 
ap prehend a tramp; but the Act does not apply to 
those under sixteen years of age nor to blind per¬ 
sons, nor to those who do not stray outside of the 
county In which they belong. This Is the same 
bill that Governor Robinson vetoed.The 
flock owners of most parts of New Mexico are 
much depressed, owing to the great mortality 
among their sheep, and especially among the 
newly dropped lambs, owing to the severe drought 
that has prevailed in that section for months 
hack. P'ully 20 per cent, of all (his season’s lambs 
have died south of the Arkansas River, and still 
heavier losses are expeou-d, unless rain comes soon. 
The wool, too, Is depreciated in valuts, owing to

ties be placed on black cambric with the breeder’s 
name and post office address attached to the 
sample, the weight of the fleece, the number of 
days’ growth, the sex or sheep, aud where practi¬ 
cable, the weight of the carcass; also that the sam¬ 
ples.; be.stltched to cloth, so.tliat it may be folded 
up or rolled, and thus kept from dirt or dust ...
