terrific snowstorm of the season has been
raging for the past ten hours, and is as
yet showing no signs of abatement. All

Startling Statistics of Depression In the

LONDON, Jan. S.-The extreme depres-
sion into which the shipping industry of
England and the continent has fallen is
shown by startling statistics just made
public. There are numbers of idle steam
ers in every port in the Kingdom. The
total number of vessels laid up in Eng
lish and Scotch ports is 479, and the total
tonnage $4,000. Besides these, there are
laid up in continental ports ninety-nine
steamers, with total tonnage of 100000.
As result of the laying up of so many
vessels, there are 1000 men idle, which
means a loss of e5, 900 in wages monthly.

lies already assembled along the
Arkansas border awaiting the

included "sooners," spectators
and new land fakirs. 1t was simp-

people who are gathered on the
border. There is abiding faith
among bona fide settlers that the
land can not be opened in time 70,

the report reached here that the
Cherokee Council would meet at
Tahlequah Monday to ratify the
sale of the lands to the Govern
ment there was great rejoicing. 1t
is generally believed that the In
dians are anxious to consumate the
sale. If the strip is not opened
this spring 5000 people hereabouts
will have to be cared for by some
body. There is no land for rent
in this section at a rate that will
justify tenants to put in crops.
Most OF these boomers are practic-
