A Good Year for sheen.

SANTA FE, n. NJ, June &C. j. Booth,
sheep buyer for Swift x Co.. Kansas City,
arrived here Saturday from the headwaters
of the Rio Grande. He says Colorado
butchers and Kansas, Iowa and Missouri
feeders have never drawn so heavily on
the iiocks of this territory at this season.
His purchases number nearly $1,000 head.
He says quarter-blood native sheep from
New Mexico are recognized throughout
the western states as making the most
savory mutton that can be produced on
American soil, the sweet, short grasses
here giving il a delicious flavor. When
too high-graded the meat becomes stringy
and tough.
Swift 4 Co. have four feeding pens in
Kansas, which are kept full of New Mex
leo sheep. They are usually fed from four
to six months, then shipped 10 Kansas City
and sla ughtered. whence their carcasses
are sent in rcfrigerators TO the four cor
ners of the land.
Prices are now running from 81 To 81.
The lamb crop, Mr.. Booth finds, has
this year been the heaviest in the history
of the country.
Wool is selling at good figures and sheep
raisers ought to prosper. MIR. Booth has
started n drive of 600 head of sheep from
Chama to Hutchison. Kan. He has pur

TRYING the Train Robbers.

TENARKAYA, Ark, June 22.-Tbc pro-
cccdings in the trial Saturday Of the al
legged Cotton Belt train robbers were .x-
tremely interesting. Detective Williams,
the alleged leader of the robbers. was

his trial was resumed. The train of cir
cunlstantial evidence was followed up

in the proposed train robbery. and when
he refused he was threatened with death
II he disclosed the secret.
David Hart, brakeman ON the Texas

War Over Electric Light Poles.

SARATOGA, n. Y, June 22.-Icstcrday
afternoon there was row at Schuyler
vile between a gang of electric light
company workmen and the parishioners
OF the church of Visitation Catholic
The latter insisted that the workmen
should not set poles i'm front of the church.
No one was fatally injured, though mis-.
siles flew in showers. Sheriff Deyo ordered
the rioters to desist. They refused and a
fight ensued. Matters quieted down after
several arrests, although one hundred
with pistols and other arms guarded the
church all night and to-day. II is under
stood that both sides are ready for a
fracas Monday morning and should the
trouble reopen il is likely the military will
be called out.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-To-morrow will

coinage committee is ready 10 report upon
the senate amendments To the silver bill,
there are indications that the committee
rules will be ready in turn To see that the

will report a rule making the national

nainder of the week. III adopted il prob
ably will lead Ia one of the most bitter

years.

ever, for the consideration Of the appro-

Butte, June 22.There was a quiet
little shooting scrape at the Silver Bow

McDugan saw the chambermaid con-

is a boarder at the Silver Bow house. His
jealousy was aroused and last night il is
said that ther. was quite stormy time in
the office OF the lodging house between
Mary and McDugau. Pistol shots
were heard together with screams aud the
noise of wrestling. The door was locked
but Policeman was sent for and on his
demand the door was opened. The girl
was not shot but the wall had suffered
terribly. She refused To swear out any
warrant against Michigan, saying that he

WASHINGTON, June 22.-None of the
members of the committee on coinage
have tonight received notice OF that very
prompt meeting that Mr.. Conger prom
ised yesterday, and IL is not probable that
the silver bill can be brought up, even IL
reported, before week from Thursday,
as the "force" election bill is to occupy
that day and probably the week. The
few democrats who were scared yesterday
by fear that free coinage was TO be or
dered before they could do something
about il, are being condemned by their
braver Western friends without stint.
II was sad mistake, for the time had
not arrived to break away, even IL they
felt that, at the very last, they must vote
against free coinage. II has been sug-
gested that Speaker Reed ought to get
some republican to offer vote of thanks
to the Is democrats who SO nobly helped
him and the president out of hole. Mr..
Bland looks for bill from the coinage
committee that will embody all the fea.

sent to the senate, except the bullion re-

NEW YORK, June "a press cores

colony of British Honduras, as well as the
neighboring republics, has been under
the ban of disease which, while II Is
said by some experts not to he yellow

excitement and anxiety were expe-
rienced In Belize yesterday morning
when il was seen that the ship
Aguan, which had arrived during
the night from the south was flying the
yellow flag and was lying in the quaran-
tine grounds. Every one who can do so
is leaving Honduras for either England or
the states, and shortly after q o'clock on
the morning of the 18th several sailing
boats loaded with passengers were max
