Though the Stock Growers Con-
 Yention vas Successful
BADLY MANAGED BARBECUE
At Which HOboeS Were the
 Most Numerous Element
A Section Of the Resolutions Re- garding tho Cession Of Arid Lands in Arizona Rejected. A SAle of Unborn Calves at Biz Price.

Denver, Jan. 27.-(Special.eThe national stockgrow'ers' conven.icn ad- journed at noon today sine die. The morning session was spent in discuss ing matters of the new association. An executive committee of one from each state was appointed. Alfred Donau of Tucson, is Arizona's me m Der. Denver was selected as the place of the next meeting, Omaha withd. aw- ing her name before a vote was taken The report of the committee on reso- lutions raised strong discussion, but was adopted except the section regard ing the cession of arid lands in Ari- zona. whose delegates opposed it strongly, Wyoming, Utah and the northern states favoring it. After spirited discussion 1t was rejected by a close vote.
 The big barbecue was spoiled by bad management. Fully twenty thou sand hungry people swarmed over the grounds, breaking down the tables and trampling the food under foor. The police and militia were pelted with loaNes of bread, chunks of buff falo and bear meat. Chaos reigned the crowds on box cars broke in sev-
 eral roofs. Every hobo within fifty
 miles of Denver was present. The committee spent lots of money. bu: 1 managed affairs miserably. The del egates were all disgusted. The executive committee meeting tonight elected officers. The Arizons
 delegates generally leave for home to-
 mornow. Very little cattle trading ] has been done yet, as western prices are too high for buyers. The bsst saae ] quoted was of thousand unbcrI Montana calves delivered on October next at S20 a head.

ANOTHER STORY OF m

Denver Jan. 27.-The national stockgrowers' convention after three days of harmonious and important de- organization of the livestock associa- tion of the United States of America was completed today by the selection of an executive committee. The clos ing number of the programme was the last barbecue to be given in America where buffalo is to appear on the menu. Among the rare viands were nice y cooked elk and 'possum, besides beef, mutton and pork in great Quanl. ities. Thirty thousand people were on the grounds.
 At today's session j, ex-GOvernor Richards of Wyoming read the report of the committee on resolutions. It recommended the gathering of sta- federal government; declared that the interests of the mountain states de- mand transit rates to all points west and south of Chicago; the passage of additional re,aliatory commercial enac, ,ments against foreign commer- cially unfriendly nations; a stand against the proposed national anti vivisection laws; national measures for the eXtermination of ticks in cattle growing states; protests against the rejection by the United States army of western branded horses; recom- mended the growing of sugar beets, and asked for a transportation rate based on thirty-six foot cars and the cassion of arid lands to the states in which they lie.

will neutralize the inducement which has made home lenders willing to in vest in these obligations. At pres ent, we are still buying up bills of exchange instead of sending them to the points of collection in the usual course, and the amount of such bills now held here is probably not less than $30,O00,00 and it is this fact which mainly explains why gold has not been coming here from Europe in large amounts. This is very in- teresting situation, yet not without some rather serious concern for Flu rope. For, should the equaliza ion of the home and transatlantic money markets stop our continuation of these foreign advances, the result might easily be a rush of gold upon New York in very important amounts. At the same time, the relations be- tween England and the powers az gressing upon China are such as may possibly produce serious disturbance s of the foreign financial markets. The only factor in this sensitive situation which can be considered hopeful for European finance is that, six weeks to two monhts hence, our imports will be at the highest and our exports at the lowest; but it is a question wheth- CT the existing extraordinary balance in our favor may not more than suffice to offset the adverse balance which usually occurs in the spring months and bring gold thither at a time when we are usually exporting it.
 Although there is good reason to suppose that the standing abroad of American investments is steadily gaining, yet it must be admitted that the conditions above referred to are far from conducive to a foreign de- mand for them until these irregulari- ties have been strengthened out. And yet the amount of bonds retu1ed has already been so large that it is hardly supposable that any further import ant refiux will occur The test vote in the senate on the Teller resolu ,ior is liable to be exaggerated as to It's significance, by the foreign press, and therefore may be attended with some temporary adverse effect upon our
 credit abroad.

BACK FROM ARIZONA.
R. E. Putney Returns From His Trip
 to Arizona Towns.

The Albuquerque (N. M.) Citizen speaks of the return of a good citizen whose remarks about Arizona towns are quoted in this wise:
 R. E. Putney, the right hand bower at the popular wholesale grocery es- tablishment of L. B. Putney, has re- turned to his duties here after pres towns.
 T found business exceedingly good throughout the country west of this city, said MT. Putney. "and the usual cry of hard times was not men tionable fact with the merchants had the pleasure of meeting. Arizona has some very pretty. prosperous appearing towns, and. owing to it's geographical location and the fertile and extensive valley. Phoe- nix seemingly has the advantage, but Prescott. Flagstaff, Williams. Hol- brook and Winslow have bright tu- lures. and the busy hum of the ham mer. coupled with the cheery voices of contented workmen at Winslow. make. l us old timers think of Albuquerque in the halcyon days twelve and fifteen years ago.
 'Phoenix.' continued MT. Putney,
 'is a. good town, and the people there have metropolitan airs. The town has one of the finest hotels in the eos1th-
 west, while the theater goers there
 will soon be pleased to see anotheN monument oG enterprise an uoetq

A FREAKLSH WE'LL.
Instead of Water It Is Sending Fortl
 Blue Clay.

Chamberlain, s. D., Jan. 27.-The government artesian well at Lower Brule agency is certainly a freak of its kind. Originally the pressure threw the solid six-i1ch stream of water to a height of twenty one feet above the top of the well casing. Subsequent ly the pipe became temporarily choked up. and at such times the water wcu,d not flow at all for periods of two or three days. Then without apparent cause the pipe would suddenly become clear and the water would again spout to the height of twenty-one feek. Af- tr continuing for few days, during which time it almost constantly spouted large quantities of sand, it would once more become choked up and cease to flow. This became so frequent and regular that in time the agency employees became accustomed to it and paid particular attention to the freakishness of the we'll, which is constantly under their observation. But now the matter has taken another and peculiar turn.
 Arrivals from the agency report that commencing about three weeks ago the well has been at intervals forcing out apparently endless quantities ot blue clay. This in itself is no, strange, but the manner in which the clay is carried through the pipe is something out of the ordinary. The blue clay entirely fills the six-inch pipe, and arises slowly above the top of the casing, exactly as sau:age emerges from a sausage machine, un- til it becomes overbalanced, when five UT six feet topple over on the ground The continued upward movement ot the clay in a few minutes causes more uf the column to topple over. This has continued until circular pieces o1 the blue clay aggregating several hundred fset in length have been de posted on the graund adjacent t.e tue well, necessitating the employ
 ment of men to remove the huge de Losits of clay before the top of tht casing becomes completely buried.
