From TIE PANHANDLE TO KAN

tNaip ~ =
Kansas City is beginning 10 cast covct-
GUS gances toward the Panhandle and
Northwest Texas. The iar-slghtcd bust
ness men Of that city perceive the i'm
mcnse possibilities OF development in
that rich domain, aud they intend that
Kansas City shall not be LETT out in the
distribution OF It's fayors, We don't OBJ
iect The Northwest is ready. Like
coy but willing maiden, the Panhandle CON
scnts, II Kansas City will but WOO in the
proper manner
The way to begin It's suit is by the
building OF railroad that will captivate
the Panhandle. A railroad from Kan
sas City Tn, say, Mobeetie, there to con-
meet with the Fort Worth Denver, would
be the richest feeder that could
be sought, and its trade would grow
20 exravagaut proportions. without
doubt it would make of Kansas City the
greatest cattle market in the country, for
that would then be the enirepot OF the
cettle traffic Of state that supplies the
beef markets OF the world THE GAZETTE
recently published figures showing that
at present, FOR want of closer connection
with Kansas CITY, several thousand car
loads Of beef from the Panhandle have
been shipped over She Fort Worth &
Denver road, while but hundred or two
hsvc gone 10 Kansas City She might
have had all OF them, had shipping iacili,
Ties been present.
That Kansas City is not blind to these
facts, is shown IN evidence by the follow
ing quotation from the Times Of that city
| :'Nortnwostcrn roxas has np TO this time
no connection by rail with the rest of the
world. It's easiest northern outlet is by
Kansas City. The herds Of cattle, hock,
OF sheep and fields of cotton, which now
constitute It's resources, would contribute
bulk OF business within the FIRST year OF
direct connection with Kansas City which
would mark new era IN our commercial
progress. After a few more years the

Our HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS.
Fort Worth has many good hotels, but
there are not enough of them, and the
lack OF sufficient hotel room has been a
daily injury to the city which no man can
estimate. No city in the Union OF
double the population Of Fort Worth
shows larger daily hotel regis
trstion. A few days since, In
order to get at the number OF people who
regsterat our hotels, TnE GAZETTE went
to the books Of four of our hotels and
counted the names Of guests for the quar-
ter ending December ]. The count
showeda total OF % 1853 names! Such reg.
isratlon as this is proof OF the need OF
more room, But no proof is needed ;
the curses OF men who come here aud fail

enough, The people Of Fort Worth
should awake to the Importance OF TIN,

The continued cold weather makes the ice
men smile. Business was lively on Lake

yesterday carrying ice into the city to fill

rapidly in the harbor. Yesterday the har-
Dor was frozen over all the way to the jetty.
The channel was still open, but the tugs got
around with difficulty. The Thermometer
last evening at 10 o'clock was Is degrees
above zero. On the previous evening at the
same time it was degrees colder.
The ice moving out with the currents night

it some of the vessels at anchor in the har-
Dor and forced them high and dry upon land.
One vessel was stranded on the beach and

fore she could clear the ice she was caught
and whirled further to the west landing
upon the beach. A portion of the cargo of
the Ben English, which coal, was dis
lodged and the cargo of bricks of the G. S.
