Disease Has Wiped Out Live Stock
in Africa
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Owing to
the terrible ravages of the rinderpest
and the prolonged drought, South At
RIGA is threatened with meat famine.
During the year ended May 31st last,
according to report to the State De-
partment from United States Consul
Stowe at Cape Town, no less than l.
400. 900 head of cattle were lost from
these causes, while in the same time
the loss of sheep was 2,0S6,0OO. In many
districts the drought has become worse
since May. All over the country the
farmers are selling their breeding
stock for slaughter, and the price OF
meat is rapidly rising. In the cities 1t
now sells for from 20 to 40 cents per
pound for beef and 20 cents for mutt
ton. Prices of living are mounting to
the danger point.

SETTLERS RUSH At
UTE RESERVATION.
Nof What Had Been Expected at
fhe Land Office.
ONLY SIX HUNDRED START.

Durango, May I-There is con-
siderable excitement here today
but the rush of settlers to the
600.OOO acres of the reservation
which was opened at noon, was
not equal to The Cherokee strip
opening. nor was it what had been
expected.
Less than six hundred settlers
started in the rush for the cites
which they wished to secure. 1t
was thought that nearly two thou
sand settlers would participate in
the rush, but many of those who
arrived here from the outside were
disappointed. The land looks bar
rem and arid while that of the
Cherokee strip was fertile. and
many, after arriving, decided not
to enter the race.
The start, however, was made at
noon and several hundred people
who did not bother about the land
office business made the rush
Only 120 lined up at the land of
fee.
No disorder has occurred up 10
this time, and there will not be
any trouble unless n scramb bic oc-
ours several miles beyond the line.
