THE GILLETT FAILURE.
Thousands OF Cattle Have been Taken
from the Ranch Near woodbine-Stories
OF Cattle Dying Not Exaggerated.

Woodbine, Kan, Dec. 1.-The
frantic efforts OF the creditors Of Grant
G. Gillett to seize all the property Of
the ex-cattle king are now complete as
far as Woodbine is concerned. Thou
sands OF head OF cattle have been
taken away since Gillett threw up the
sponge, and what property that the
sheriff OF Dickinson county has not
seized has been taken by the men who
hold Gilletts notes. Not more
than 800 cattle remain on the
ranch which drew buyers from all
parts Of the west and which in its day
has supported $1,000 head. The stories
told of cattle dying here OF exposure
and hunger are not in the least exag-
gerated. The banks Of Lyons creek,
along which the II corrals are located,
are strewn with dead stock worth
from $40 to $50 per head.
The animals have not been fed regu.
larry since last Friday, and, being con-
fined by heavy barb-wire fences, have
died in the cold like sheep with the
murrain. Cows IRE SO weak that the
drovers knock them down with the
lash Of the whip. and the poor brutes
are so far gone that they never rise
again.

SOLVING THE FUTURE WEI

This II What II Vow Being Done On
the Fertile PRairies %
Western Canada.

The rapid progress that IL being made
In the settlement Of the fertile prairies
Of western Canada is leading to the In
yestigation of its resources by those
interested In having provision made for
those living In the crowded east, for
those who have been struggling for
years on impoverished farms, for the
renter who Is unable any longer to bear
us under the strain imposed by the
landlord, and for the farmer who un-
able to purchase farms for his sons In
his own neighborhood has to look
around for lower priced lands. The in
yestigation shows that II Is impossible
to meet these conditions successfully
outside Of western Canada. Already
millions Of bushels Of wheat are being
grown there each year. while as many
as $4,000 head Of cattle were shipped
out this year. A representative OF the
|iermania, Milwaukee, one Of the lead
ing German papers in the United
States, recently made trip through
Manitoba, Assiniboia, Alberta and
Saskatchewan, where lie the free gov
eminent lands Of western Canada, and
In q future issue will appear extracts
from Hattering letters contributed to
the Germania and other papers by their
special correspondents.
As an inducement for immigrants to
make their homes in Canada, the Cana
dian government offers 100 acres OF
land free of cost to each settler, and In.
formation can be had Of agents of the

consignment at Wichita Falls was not
less than $4,000. and 1t Is reported
that It was twice that amount-two

money came to the various banks, not
simply to one bank in any town.
Bankers here sly they lose nothing as
they merely honored instructions from

Washington, Dec. SIT is highly
probable that the Paris conference will
end its work within few days All
questions In contention between the
two countries were settled when Spain
acceded to the demands of the United
States as presented in the protocol, and
the treaty of peace would undoubtedly
have been formulated and signed
some days ago had not proposition
been submitted for the sale to the
United States OF the Caroline islands.
While this proposition was entirely
outside the protocol, and was in no
manner related to the agreement
reached, It was determined that the
business OF the conference should not
be closed until the Caroline question
was finally disposed OF.
