SHIPPING CATTLE ACROSS SEA.
Some Points Regarding This New Conn
mercial Industry.

Special Correspondence
NEW YORK. Feb. 6.-The live stock
shipping industry began about eight
wears ago. The average number oil
cattle sent each week is 5000 the year
round. or about l0O 700 annually. OF
course this does not include dead car
cases which are shipped by the mil
lion. nor fine breeding stock, compris-
INCA great number Of bulls, every year
sent over from Kentucky.
lpon the other hand, England sends
no butchers stock TO America. She
does. however, ship fine thoroughbreds
for stock breeding purposes, and no end
Of them.
The expense Of shipping a cargo OF
cattle of say $50 head may easily be
computed by these figures: Cost Of 500
head. at $50 each, $4,000; forty men
llcductine four "deadheads), at $50
each wages range from S2j TO SOL

this must often be added cost Of insur-
ance. although the cargo is not always

made the scene of lrying's Legend of

story to his friends with many local en-

His country home and the adjoining
Catskills were his recreation, but he
lived the life of a New Yorker TO the

home was full Of social attractions. To
the new St. Nicholas and Century clubs
he gave some Of his leisure, but during
