was discharged Wednesday. Her
husband will go with her to America

Popular sympathy in England is
entirely in her favor, and there was

MOggishness Rebuked

Last Winter about 10000 cattle
were fed in Washoe county along
the Truckee meadows. The ranchers,
thinking they had a dead cinch,
charged 81 ton in the stack for
alfalfa hay. This is a very stiff
price considering that in Mason Val
ley it is sometimes fed as low as
$3.50 or $500. The cattlemen said
nothing, but after they had settled
up their bills they held meeting
and decided to feed no more cattle
there. AS result the farmers have
big stacks of hay on hand but no
cattle are being driven in to eat it..
Hay will be pretty cheap in Wash

Baker, who was here from San Fran
cisco on professional business, says
the official returns will show that
Bryan carried California by several
thousand majority. The presi-
Dental electors were arranged in
groups on the ballot, the names of
the Democratic and Populist electors
being the same. Many voters
marked the Democratic and Popu-
lists groups of electors to emphasize
their adherence to Bryan. In many
precincts these ballots were not
counted and in other precincts,
where the Populists voted for their
electors only, the votes were not
counted for Bryan. Mr.. Baker
thinks that there were at least 1900
Bryan votes thrown out in San
Francisco and several thousand in
other parts of the state.

ST. LOUIS, July 25.-Immediately after
adjournment the Texas delegates got to-
gether to take action as to their
course. Stump Ashley got up on a
chair and acted as chairman of the conven-
ton. He said there was no disposition on
the part of Texas to have trouble with any
body, and thought that st. Louis would
give them the necessary protection, but the
Texas delegation. he said. did not need very
much of that article. He advised the dele
cation to meet at the Southern Hotel and
to invite all of the 'middle-of-the-
road men,. 1t was proposed at
once to appoint committee to
wait on Governor Stone and get
the telegram he was said to have from
Bryan. This committee consisted of Samuel
Evans, of Texas: Ulrich. of Wisconsin, and
Howard, of Alabama, although Campion,
of Maine, was subsequently substituted for
him. Paul vandervoort, of Nebraska, got
hearing for Washburn, of Massachu-
setts. who tried to tell the Texas men that
Bryan was all right, but he could give them
little information Washburn was bom-

not Bryan would accept. WaShburn said he

that prominent men in the Texas delega-

those who were not delegates to leave there
was thinning out most noticeable. Then
the meeting proceeded with the appoint

An important feature of the meeting was
the refusal of Frank Burkitt of Missis-

and although Schilling, OF Wisconsin, was
appointed several times, he gave notice
that being the national committee. he
could not serve. Some question was raised
