The Marquis de Mores departed for his
ranch at Medora, Dakota, yesterday. He
arrived from New York on Monday, and
with his wife and children put up at the
Ryan. His stay was prolonged on account
of the sickness of one of his children. He
was more stylishly arrayed than when he
passed through this city last fall en- route to
Paris. He then came from his ranch.
During his absence he has perfected ar
rangements whereby the cattle killed at
Medora can be taken to New York in
refrigerator cars and placed on the market.
He naturally feels quite jubiant over the
new company, for it is a stock association
which he has got interested in the scheme,
and anticipates that not little money can
be made out Of the business.
