Organizing a Boycott.

Guthrie Ok, May 49, The cattlemen
OF Western Oklahoma are organizing a
boycott on Kansas City and threaten
TO ship all of their cattle to Chicago
and South Omaha. The reason for the
boycott is the recent action of the Kan
sas quarantine board in requiring in
spection of all Oklahoma cattle enter
ing the state. This rule was approved
by the Missouri board, making shin
ment to Kansas City difficult and ex.
pensive matter.

seems to grow that Senator Quay, of

the seating of men appointed by the

reason which is given for the general

THE SITUATION AT zANlpoANaA.
Washington, May l6.-lt is expected
az the war department that Gen. OTIS
VIII take steps at once TO replace the
spanish garrison at Zamboanga with
United States troops. The indications
are that comparatively small force
wiz suffice, provided that it is sup
ported by one or two gunboats. Fam.
boanga is Of great strategic impor.
lance, being the capital of the island of
Mindanao, the second largest IN the
Philippine group and "a good seaport.
IL was to this point that the Spanish
forces retreated from lloilo when tina,
town was evacuated without notice to
the American forces, The town is
easily defensible with u small artillery
force.
The fact that the insurgents are in
possession of rapid fire guns makes the
situation at Iamboanga more serious.
put It is not believed here that they
have large supply of the ammunition
necessary to operate the weapons
which Will consequently soon become
useless to them. To unofficial agents
the government here has been quietly
making investigation into the state Of
affairs in the Sulu group, Just to the
south OF the Visayas islands, with a
view to determining whether BY
good management the inhabitants
cannot be brought into allegiance
to the United States without insurrec.
Ton. The natives are generally Mo-
hammedans and owe allegiance to a

been able to bring into more than NOM |

Cattle receipts were about 400 head less
everything in was on sale. The market
showed a considerable Improvement over
last week in that the demand was very
good, and butcher cattle were in eSpe-
cially good demand. Prices on the best
quality stockers and feeders were a lit
tie stronger, but there was no quotable
change in anything else. There was quite
a little common stock stuff In the re-
ceipts, and it was very slow sale at sow
The Western stuff sold readily at good,
steady prices.
