Cattle in Nevada.

Several cattlemen have of late been
correcting the staten ents made in some
of the Eastern Nevada papers in regard
to their losses of stock. They say that
though they have suffered much loss,
still they have not lost as heavily as has
been reported. They Will gather to-
getber the remnants of their herds, make
the most OF the fine feed that will be
found this summer on all the ranges,
and be prepared to enter next winter
with their stock well in hand. The rule
will be better cattle, smaller herds, shell
ter sheds and hay to be fed out during
stormy weather. The experience of last
winter shows that sheds alone are saving
institutions of great value. The rule will
presently be small lots eff cattle in many
hands. The beef aggregate will be grlat=l
er than has ever yet been .sseu ID the
state.

Extensive Robberies Reported From Argentine
Republic Denied by Consul Calvo.

Extensive Robberies Reported From Argentine
Republic Denied by Consul Calvo.
NEW YORK, May s.-A dispatch from
Buenos Ayrss reported yesterday that
the Argentine Republic had been robbed
of sums aggregating $40, OOO, 1000 by dis
honest officials in the custom service.
A reporter called upon Adolfo G. Calvo,
consul Of Argentine Republic in this city,
and when that official was shown the dis
patch he pronounced it preposterou 6.
''By no possibility, - said Consul Calvo,
ftcould any such enormous robbery be
made by customs officials. The total
amount of annual revenues of the re-
public from all sources amount to S5S -
900 200, of which two-fifths are de-
rived from customs duties. Such de-
fulcation would therefore be equivalent to
stealing nearly one-half of the annual
customs revenues, which would be an
utter impossibility. The officials charged
with the collection of custom duties are
required to account daily for the money
received, and TO deposit the same. A
failure TO do so would be followed by q
swift exposure.
Mr.. Calvo further said that in his
opinion the report was another effort on
the part of those who have heretofore
sought to injure the financial standing of
the Argentine republic. His latest ad-
vices we're to the effect TINT crops were
abundant, and that the premium on gold
had fallen 100 points, and that as con-
sequence prosperity smiled upon the peo-
pie Of the country.

Significant shrinkage,

The department of agriculture report

aggregate value in 1884 was 81 JOG, 715, :
7OS, while the present returns shog

Of Sl92, 93S, 4S3 in six years, although
numerically cattle have increased b1,
more than 10, 900, 900 head. This isE
big difference and attributable TO thes1s-
preston of prices brought aboutSe the
dressed beef combines. This country
hasn I stopped eating beef TO any great
extent so far as known and the dressed
beef men certainly have not been losing
any money. A business which makes
from % to 30 per cent. on capital is pay
