THE STEAMERS.
Alcides Arrived Yesterday Aftera Very
Tempestuous Passage-other Steamers in
port

The Donaldson liner Alcides arrived
Yesterday afternoon, after a very tenn
pestuous passage. She left Glasgow
February Is, coming directly to this
port. The first days out strong west and
northwest winds were encountered. In
latitude 1910, longitude $3.50, the
steamer encountered severe hurricane.
Fearful waves swept over the steamer.
The intensity of the storm may be
Judged from the fact that with the
engines doing their best the steamer
could only make a hundred miles IN
forty-eight hours. In ordinary weather
six numbered miles or more would be
made. Westerly winds and high seas fol-
lowed until latitude "A, longitude 81
were reached, where the steamer passed
through large foes of closely packed soft
ice, called by sailors "pan cake" From
that time until Seal Island was passed,
dense fogs beset the vessel.
The steamers Texas, from Bristol, and
Hermann from Antwerp, arrived Sat
urday. The Hermann. which brings 397
bags of beet sugar for Montreal, will
probably sail for Boston today to dis
charge other portions of her cargo.
Last week about thousand head OF
cattle went through this port to England
on the steamers. They were all inspected
by DIR. Huntington, the United States
veterinary inspector at this port.
With the Labrador, which is at the
grain elevator, there are four ocean
steamers in port.

prospects Mr. Mulvane said.
sThe Kansas financial outlook must in
spire confidence in every thoughtful
man. Our boom burst Ia 1887, since
which time we have been paying debts
and improving our properties. We have
been blessed by quite fruitful years, Civ
ing US good average crops, with fair
average prices The enormous product
of these fertile years has Hquidated
about 50 per cent of our boom Indebted
ness. La addition thereto our people
have largely Increased their holdings of
domestic animals, and are today i'm better
financial condition than they have been
at any time in the past 10 years.
'-Io comprehend the immense product
Of the last five years i call attention to
the fact that in Kansas cattle alone there
passed through the Kansas City stock
yards for the year 1892. S0.509 head.
which was Increased in 1892 TO $3.50 IS
head being an increase of over 500 per
cent in % years; and in the last five years
alone we have shipped and sold, passing
through the same stock yards, over 9, $780,
600 head 81 cattle.
-In swine our production has grown
from 4I0-D8l head ln 1852 TO I.3JJ-D
head in 1890, and in the last five years we
have shipped and sold. receiving pay,
10.411, ,000 head of fat hogs.
~Of wheat we have produced 97,JOO,
600 bushels in the last four years, which,
at the average value of the years, brought
us 8136.5O0,00O. he same four years
blessed us with Coz, 100000 bushels of
corn, which had a market value of $780,
100000.
sThe larger portion Of this immense
production has gone into debt paying
and permanent improvements.
"We see this evidence of our good
financial condition. the comptroller's re-
port showing that the national banks Of
Kansas reached nearly 80 per cent on

makes a report equally favorable We
