THE OUTLOOK 81 BAD.
Cattlemen Fear That Their Loss win BE
Very Heavy.

Cattlemen Fear That Their Loss VIII he
Very Heavy.
The continued cold weather, begin
ming 60 early in the fall and prevailing
with such constant cold and increasing
snow, has considerably alarmed the
stockmen of Northern Montana, particu-
larly the cattIemen.
All reports show that in the cattle
country the temperature has been much
lower than at Great Falls and the suow
has been heavier and has lain as it fell.
At Hayre the Thermometer has regis.
tered - degrees below zero, and for -
days the mercury never rose above zero.
At Choteau, 80 below has been regis
tered and the minimum every day for
the past week has been at least L. be-
low. At Big Sandy the cold is equally
severe and trainmen report that in that
vicinity cattle already show the effects
of the storm.
In Teton and Valley counties. the
snow storms have been accompanied by
high winds and the cattle have not
rustled well.
So far as known, no cattle have frozen
or starved as yet,
M. E. Miner, who has cattle all over
Northern Montana, is anxious concern
ing the future and says that the recent
storm are SO similar TO those that char
acterized the hard winter OF 1850 81 that
he fears tnat the parallel may continue
throughout the winter. Others agree
with him and express a fear that the
losses will be very heavy.
Those who have hope base it upon a
belief that the cold spell will end soon
and that the succeeding warmth will
cJntIuue for eucn a llm6 that all SHOW
on the ground will entirely disappear.
II chinook should but partially dis
perse the snow and cold snap should
follow, the snow would be crusted and
stock would suffer severely.
The ranges were in very good cOndi-
ton prior e the snowfall and are not
oyerstocEad, 50 that if the cattle can
reach the gtass through the snow they
will find plenty of it,
CattlcmoQ have very little feed and
would consider it folly TO begiu to feed

pared, but not so well as they would like
to be.

New YORK, Nov. PA locomotive
designed to run POO miles an hour has
Just been completed at the Baldwin Lo
comotive works in Philadelphia. 1t is
called the Lightning Express, locomo

| Westinghouse con psny, and it is said
that the locomotive il 4 speed trial made

| In appearance the new locomotive re-
sembles street car, There is a cow
| catcher in front, on which rests the
headlight. The mechanism is under
meath. between the wheels, and .little of
it is visible.
The frame of the car is made Of lO-inch
rolled steel channels, surrounded by q
half inch rolled steel plate, covering the
entire frame. 1 his plate ie an important
detail, as it gives great strength to re-
sist blows in collisions The franc IS
carried on two trucks, which have all the
easy riding features vt cr trucks-sott
springs, swinging motion and free move
ment.
A third rail is required to make tbg
new motor engine serviceable, and be-
cause of this its Introduction is likely to
be postponed for some time.
David l. Barnes, the electrical expert
of the Baldwin and Westinghouse COM
paniee, says:
The electric express only awaits tie
rohdbed and equipment to fairly leap
aeroe8 the CONTINENT And that is the
minor part, requiring only capital The
engineering part has been practically
solved. The locomotive will make l0O
miles an hour just as easy rs l20 when
the track is suitable, The power is all
sufficient from the central station, and
the apparatus is adapted for any spead
