The present state department officials
have instituted very thorough search
tor the missing papers, without getting

that the documents had become mixed
up with Secretary Blaines papers, and
were taken away by him when he left
the state department, but that gentleman
has also instituted thorough search
through his private papers without get.
ting any clew to them, nor can lie throw
any light upon their disappearance,
which is enshrouded in mystery. The
recent resolution passed by the house
assumed that there must have been cor.

A St. Louis Failure.

st. Louis. February IA The suspen-
sion OF the commission house of Geo. H.
Small 4 Go. was announced this morn
ing. This firm has done large bust.
ness with the south in grain, provisions.
etc. and has bought pretty heavy lines
OF options in that section. The late
break in wheat forced the firm 10 put up
large amount in margins and most
OF their customers sent the firm one to
three days drafts on themselves, but for
some unknown reason many of the drafts
have been returned protested, and the
house found it necessary to suspend. Mr..
Small says their liabilities here are com.
paratively light, and that If their custom.
ers will pay the margins due, which vii,
amount to about $4,000. the firm will h,
able to pay up in the course of ooun,e
OF months aud have something over.

A PLAINS PRODUCT.
Six Legs Attached to One Cow.


New York, Feb. lO.-,rhe butchers in
Washington market were greatly exer-
cised to-day about the presence of \
large. COW on exhibition in their midst
with six legs and a vertebrate as crooked
as the branch OF sour apple tree. She
was brought by man named Charles
Andres oil the way from Colorado.
where she was picked out of q herd OF
cattle grazing on the plains, but the
herd was in complete ignorance that apy
one OF it's number carried six legs. The
COW In question, which was exhibited in
shed in the rear of West Washington
market, was OF average size, and covered
with q suit of somewhat rough brown
hair. Tho forehead and breast were
white. and the horns curved forward in
crescent in shape. Her keeper said
her age was six yeas, that she
was gentle, and recognized him
whenever he placed his hand
upon her. She stood on four leps like
any other COW, and the two extra leos
growing out of the top of the shoulder.
blade, dropped on either side, and in
shape were exactly like q pair of hind
legs. The leg on the right side termi,.a-
ting in an elongated hoof, measured
twenty-six inches. and was at least
twenty inches from the ground. The
leg, on the left side measured sixteen
inches, and was about thirty inches from
the ground and evidently updeveloped.
Leading from the tail Of the COW toward
the head, the spine assumed zigzao
line, and the buttocks were wiuelv
separated, while the hips were unusully
prominent. She eats bran and hay like
any other COW. and drinks pail OF water
day. She has fine bright eyes, and the
white hair curling over her forehead
gives her quite fashionable appearance
