taxed to their utmost capacity to keep up
with the cattle shipments to be made In the
next six weeks, and soon the immense
ranches of Northwest Texas and the Indian
Territory will be full of stock.
Receipts of livestock for the week at the
Union stockyards, Chicago, show an in
crease of 5000 cattle, no change in hogs and
decrease of $500 sheep, compared with
last week Compared with year ago

Louis national stock yards amounted to

The indianapolis Live Stock Journal
says there is no longer any doubt that In
dianapolis will have another large packing
house, which will be ready for operation
next June, with a capacity of 500 hogs per
day during the summer and $500 per day
during the winter months. The new COM
pany will be known as the Moore packing
company, and commence business with a
working cash capital of 5000 subscribed
entirely by local parties.
Col. William Epperson of the livestock
commission firm of William Epperson u
Co.. Kansas City, is stopping at the Man
sion. Col. Epperson is in Texas on bust
ness connected with cattle interests and
has spent already several days over the
state taking in the situation. He, in talk
ing with a GAZETTE representative, spoke
of the hard market shippers had encoun-
tered for weeks past, but said he, as well
as others, felt confident better prices were
sure to follow soon. In referring to the
Big Four combine, he said many people
took a wrong view, according ito his idea
of their operations in connection with the
depression in prices. He thought it not so
much desire on their part to buy cattle
cheap as it was to undersell each other
while, in fact, the result to the shipper was
disastrous. He said the competition be-
tween these packers was great. Col. Ep-
person asked the question, ''What would
we do with our poor COWS, those that must
be sold, and your ranchmen have large
numbers of them TO dispose of every year,
if it were not for their canneries-who
would buy theme l claim the existence of
the Big -Four, as it is called, has It's adj
vantages as well as disadvantages. Don't
understand me, however, as indorsing this
combine !
II find the cattle interests in Texas, so
far as have been able to see, in good con-
dition. We handle great number of cat
tie from your state, and hope TO handle
more" J

The weeks Packing Operations.

The Cincinnati Price Current in its
weekly review says:
The total marketing of hogs in the West
the past week has been quite moderate, the
packing operations further reduced. the re-
turns showing 225 coo, against 100000 the
preceding week, and 365,0O0 for CORE
spending time last year-making total of
1910. 600 since November l, against Z, 920, 900
last year-decrease, 100000 hogs. 1t is
quite likely the ultimate exhibit for the
winter season. ending March l, will show a
further reduction in numbers in the COM
parison.
In the provision trade nothing especially
new is shown. Current distribution of
product is liberal, and prices without essen
tial change. The weeks exports of product
We're quite large, although not up to the
high point in lard shown for corresponding
time last year. The general situation seems
TO be free from influences calculated to
cause any essential depression in values,
while the lack OF speculative interest for
forward deliveries gives little encourage
ment with reference to any substantial
advance in the near future.

Charles Goodnight, one of the most ex-
tensive cattle dealers in Texas, came in
yesterday from Goodnight and was seen at
the Mansion by a GAZETTE reporter
When asked as 20 the prospects of stock
in his country, the gentleman said:
Cattle are in good condition; that is,
those raised and acclimated in my part of
the state; but those brought in from the
interior and turned loose on the open and
free ranges have suffered very great loss
probably 80 per cent. Interior stock that
have been placed in pastures and properly
cared for are doing remarkably well, con-
sidering the condition when brought M
Has there been any sales of feeders re-
Gently ~ asked the reporter.
Yes, of well-bred cattle, there has been
quite number. Two-year-olds have
brought $40 per head, cash. 1 refer to the
- A. herd of Durham and Herefords,
crossed. I think well-bred yearlings will
command Sl5 on to-day's market for feed
ing and grazinc If stock raisers would pay
more attention to breeding blooded stock
they would find it a paying business. In
short, you. can say that the cattle industry
is looking up"
Mr.. Goodnight will probably leave for his
home this morning

WASHINGTON, Special, April 2O.-The bill
to amend the act of June 25, 1890, approving
the funding act of Arizona, was taken up in
the senate. One sentence in it attracted the
attention of MIR. Stewart. 1t was provision
that the interest on the bonds provided :or
in the Arizona funding act should be pay
able in gold coin of the United States. 1t
was the first time, Mr.. Stewart said, since
the passage ofthe resumption act, thatsuch
clause had been contained in bill. He ar
gued that the passage Of the bill just as it
came from the housc-with the interest on
the bonds payable in gold coin. would be
seized upon by the gold press to show that
the people of Arizona were opposed to the
free coinage OF silver.
Mr.. Kyle moved to strike out the words
in gold coin of the United States" and to
insert in lieu of them the words 'in lawful
money Of the United States" A vote re-
suited yeas q nays l6-no quorum voting.

Indian Scouts Under Con. sully May
Arnin Receive Pay.

YANKroS, S. d., Special, April 19.-The
passage by the senate OF Pettigrews bill ap-
p7oprlatng money to pay Indian scouts
employed by Gen. Suily in 1864 reveals the
fact that these scouts have already been
twice paid for their services. EN-Gov.
Faulk of Yankton makes the following
statement
On the application Of Delegate Bur reigh. con-
gress appropriated $40. 900 to pay these scouts.
fSee act approved Feb. 20 1SG9.l This sum
was paid by Gov. Faux, AS will be shown by
vouchers on file in the Office OF the commissioner
OF Indian affairs ut Washington. BY the terms
OF the act this sum was to lie nsidered as an
offset against amy claim u -, Indians may
have against the government for military
services during the late war and
the delegate i'll congress from Da kota accepted i
as full aud satisfactory payment. These iaiik-
ton Indians never rendered any other services,
companying his bill The war department. i'll
1871, also paid these Iudan scouts SIS each.
the secretary finding no evidence i'll his office
that they were ever paii before the bill OF Feb.
25, 1869. was drawn providing for the payment
through the war department., but on its
passage i'll the house on motion OF Is. f. Butler,
the bill was amended making the governor OF
Dakota the disDursing officer. hence the mystery
i'll the war department.
These facts show that $40. 600 were paid in
1869, and $75 each in 1871. the latter sum
alone being considered by the war depart
as Just and proper compensation Tor the
time and service as reported by Gen. Sully.

bell, and his man Frank, are both drowned.
Mr.. Dobeli lately purchased property on
Pokesama lake, and had nearly completed
a fine residence for a summer resort there.
He had made extensive purchases OF stock,
poultry, hogs. etc., with the intention OF
combining business with pleasure, and cs-
tablish a popular resort at the loot of the
lake. He had recently been in business in
Minneapolis. His wife, who had been
away Tor month on visit, returned last
Saturday aud found the house de-
serted the stock uncared Tor, and
two guns and one boat gone. She spent
Saturda. night and nearly all dav Sunday
anxiously awaiting their return, when she
hailed a passing boat and came to Pine City,
bringing the first news of their disappear
ance. A searching party sent out iound
their overturned boat and one floating oar,
which makes it reasonably certain they
were drowned. The wife, nearly crazed
with griet, together with their only child.
