Captain Dan McCunniugham, the
government live stock inspector, in an
interview in the Ell Paso Times of last
Sunday says: About next Tuesday or
Wednesday the rush of cattle from
Mexico into this country will begin in
earnest. Large herds are now on the
march for FL Paso, Fort Hancock and
Deming. One herd Of 1900 of Britton
Davis's cattle from Corralitos will ar
rive at Fort Hancock in two or three
days. There will be some little delay,
as the government expects me to do
all of the inspecting and of course if
herds arrive at Eel Paso, Deming and
Fort Hancock on the same day / can
not be at each point the same day to
inspect them. Yes, it is now definite.
ly known how many head of cattle en-
tered this country during the last
year from Mexico, though the figures
have never yet been published. Be
tween January /, 1894 and January l,
1895, there were 128, 627 head Of cattle

It appears that in calculating the

and the treasury books kept straight

not been able TO forge much further north
than on his previous expedition. lie would
not give any reason for the failure other than
lack OF food In Lieut.. Peary's camp.
When driven back on his flrst attempt to
reach the North pole Lieut.. Peary decided to
press forward aeain In 1894. He had buried
food In the ice. but when he came to look for

Prot Dyche told n number OF interesting
Incidents about hunting walrus, meeting ice

back on the Sylvia about 1000 specimens OF
arctic fora and fauna. He also brought back
six dogs. The specimens will be divided be-

COMBINE OF MILLERS.
They are.Arraueing to Control the Mar
keting of Flour.

The efforts being made by the leading mil
lers OF the country, and the chief members Of
the National MIllers Association, to bring
about an arrangement which will provide
rules for the output OF -four on the market,
and fixing n minimum price for flour, appear
to be on the point OF reaching q successful
issue. The details Of the plan have been
worked out, and made known to the princi-
pal millers Of the country, and the agreement
OF the large inillers of winter and spring
wheat to abide by the regulations, or, In
other words, to enter the combination, is oil
that is now lacking.
Two months ago, at n meeting Of the Ma
tional Miller's Association In Minneapolis, II
was suggested that a plan be formulated
whereby the brokers and other outsiders
could not turn the flour market as they saw
flt, but by which the miilers themselves could
control the market to an extent sufficient to
protect themselves, II nothing more. The
plan proposed is to form q combination of
millers and nx the minimum prise at which
the output Of the mills will be sold. No mil
Ter may 20 under this price. All may sell
above II. To solve the overproduction prob
lem II was decided TO have all mills reduce
their production 10 per cent, which would
make difference Of almost 4,000,000 in a
year. All mills failing to reduce their pro-
duction will be notified, and shall, according
to the agreement, pay to the combine zen
cents for every barrel Of -four in excess Of the
agreed weight. The agreement is TO hold for
year, and TO be renewed thereafter yearly
II held satisfactory.
