Cattle receipts have Wen evenly distributed Jill through this week, as shippers had been advised against shipping, in view of the packing house agitation now going on, and the run of 32, 000 arrived in a timid, hesitating manner. Packers were bearish Monday, and some concession were required before trades were made, but small gains have been made each day since, including a sharp advance of 10 cents today, owing to extreme scarcity of desirable beef stc-en. Packers have gained courage all week, and the recent controversy is not hurting the fresh meat tradejas much us fear ed, but its bad influence on foreign trade, particularly in canned meats, will )ikelv be felt severely.

At the time of the arreft they were engaged in a drunken quarrel at the woman's hou-ie on the hill east of Nel-on Avenue.
