treat Losses on the Cattle Hardly
Any Rain for Year.

treat Losses on the Cattle Ranges Hardly
Any Rain for Year.
BENSON, Ari., Feb 25.-The people Of
this region are anxiously watching the
weather. The failure of rain for the
next three weeks will be a serious blow
to the cattle interests in Arizona.
The past year has been very dry up to
within the last three weeks Practically
no rain has fallen for nearly year, and
the losses of cattle throughout the Ter
ritory are already larger than for seven
years.
Joseph Land, cattle inspector for the
Benson and Pantano districts, estimates
the losses along the San Pedro above
Benson at twelve per cent, and on the
lower San Pedro fifty per cent up to the
present time.
New grasses have been started by re-
cent showers, and if the rain falls during
the next three weeks to aid it, all will
be well, If not, the grasses will die and
probably very few cows and calves on
the ranges will survive the summer.
Steers are harder and will not suffer so
much

The REAL REASON
Why Lady BlandfOrd Applied
for Increased AlimOny.
PRESENT DUCHESS IS JEALOUS.
Society and the Queen on the Side Of the
Former Duchess Of Marlborough.

only Through Great Pressure Was the
Dukes Present wife Permitted to be
Presented to the Queen on Her Marriage
Not welcome at the Home of the
Prince of Wales, Who Has a Good Mem
ory for Amy Slight Put Upon Him.
LONDON, Feb. 25.-The real reason for
the dispute about the Marquis of Bland
ford's allowance from the Duke of Marl-
borough, his father, in which the latter
was victorious, lies in the jealousy which
has always existed between Lady Bland
ford, the Dukes former wife, and the
Duchess of Marlborough nee Mrs. Ham
ersley.
Lady Blandford is persona grata with
the Queen, and society was also on her
side when she divorced her husband,
although unwiIlingly, after writing most
pathetic letters offering to condone every
| thing for her children's sake.
Since then she has openly regretted
that she did not suffer in silence, for the
children's position naturally is affected
by the divorce But on the other hand
the Duchess of Marlborough was never
cordially received, and only through
great pressure the Queen allowed her to
be presented on her marriage.
Nor are they welcomed at Marlborough
House, for the Prince of Wales has a
fierce memory for any slight TO himself
or any one he favors He has never for
given the Duke for loving Lady Ayles-
ford, friend Of his, who is now alone
and almost starving in Paris. He stated
openly that it is entirely the Duchess
fault that the Duke no longer pays Lord
Blandford's allowance nor his college
expenses, for Lady Blandford always sat
like Mordecai at the gates, spelling all
her pleasure in her high position and her
great estates.
Lady Blandford has one daughter al
ready out and another comes out this
season. She is enabled to keep up her
position through the liberaiity of the
Duke of Abercorn and other relatives.

PERRY VIII BE oHAINsp.
II s Thought That the Man who Identi-
fled Him Was Not His Father.

LYONS, n Y, Feb. 25.-Oliver Curtis
Ferry the train robber, was yesterday
held for the grand jury in SO, 900 bail. A
commercial traveller from Saltwater
Mimi, says he has recognized in Perry a
vicious prisoner who was in the Still
water Penitentiary two years ago, and
who escoped in woman's clothing
Perry has been plotting TO escape from
the Jail. He was seen TO pass paper to
his father through his cell door and the
old man was searched by the jailer.
The paper was found to contain an ac-
curate diagram of the Jail and the size
of key wanted, under which was writ
ten 'Make wooden key about this size. "
Mr.. Perry was given to understand that
he can hereafter converse with his son
only in the presence of an armed guard
and at a distance from the cell door.
Some believe that the man who is pass
ing as Perry's father is not his parent,
but an accomplice. A satchel belonging
to the desperate was taken from the
father in Syracuse. 1t was found to con-
tain a kit of fine tools, bottle of alcohol
in which was human ear that the rob
