LIVE STOCK.
THAT BIG SYNDICATE.

San Antonio EXPRESS.
The formation of a large Northern syndicate
for the purpose Of purchasing ranches extern
siyey and cattle in vast herds. as recently
reported by the EXPRESS. Is still the almost
exclusive topic Of conversation among cattle
raisers of West Texas II. B. Woodley a
very prominent stockman. who came in from
the West yesterday. said, In speaking OF
this subject to reporter for the Express'
"since the Express published the reported
formation Of this syndicate have heard OF
such deal having been In process OF infu-
baton for some time regard 1t as a
natural sequence. Heretofore most OF the
stockmen have been operating on borrowed
CAPITAL which capital largely comes from the
hands of Northern CAPITALISTS. The latter
have at last concluded that 1t would be more
profitable to them to invest 1t directly In the
cattle business themselves than to lend 1t to
others on interest who put 1t In rhat bust
ness. Instead of getting from to 10 per cent
interest on their capital these Northern capt.
talists would be enabled to get 10 per cent.
If not more
Il do not believe that their purchase OF
large tracts of land and immense NERDS OF
cattle will result in their entirely corneriag
the cattle market. but If their syndicate trade
Ia contaminated 1t will have the erect or
taking large numbers of cattle out of the
market for several years. for | believe that
this syndicate can afford to hold their herds
until their steers age. They will want to
make all the money they can out OF their
cattle and will not be likely to put thetr
steers on the market until they are fully
matured This will be when the steers are
from to years old. The only thing that
might cause the syndicate to put their steers
on the market before maturity would be
season of drouth that they are In the natural
course of things likely to encounter. In which
be dear one, but has been that OF many
COW man and has taught the latter to sell
his steers whenever thev were in Eood con
dtion and the market was favorable so he
could reap an ordinarily good profit on them.
Cow men now days don't deal so much
in aged steers as they used to in olden
times and YOU don't see nor hear of near so
The reason for this is that the stock raiser
is satisfied to sell his stock when they have
reached an age when he can get fair profit
out of them without waiting to run the risk
of losing them during a drouth. cattle
syndicate might be in better shape to risk
drouth contingency than the individual cat
tlernan is and, for this reason might want
to hold on TO the syndicate cattle until 1t
could mature them fully and get the very top
most price for them.
Il am inclined to think that the formation
of this syndicate will not prove deleterious
to the interests OF individual stockmen. who
need not sell their ranches and cattle to the
and need not fear to sell their cows to 1t for
fear that they will never again have. the
chance of buying another COW for themselves
In fact. can see no harm that must come
to the cattemen by the formation of such
a syndicate"

ing she lives upon aprinciple which
was known and practiced by Ori-
entails long before the science of
medicine was brought to light by
Esculapius and Hippocrates, name
ly, the influence of mind over mat
ter. Every person recognizes that
sorrow entering the mind will cause
the physical sensation of tears, and
the overflow of the duct. and also
change the whole expression of the
countenance. Physicians constant
ly recognize this principle of mind
cure in the use of pills, which they
assure the hysterical or nervous pa
tients will surely cure, and such
pills are madeof bread crumbs and
sugar. The celebrated information
al surgeon, DIR. Valentine Mott.
after careful examination of a
man who had been helples Grip
pie for years, took away his crutch-
es and drove him from his office.
The man was so thoroughly fright
ened that he ran. There are con
stantly coming before physicians
and surgeons cases of this type
which need neither medicine nor
the knife, and can only be healed
by mental activity, directed toward
the valve of a curative object, or
wrenched away from an imagined
disorder over which it is despond-
emily brooding.
Cases of this type, and their
name is legion, can very easily be
cured under the Vaccinations of
the Christian Scientist. and of
course one such weak testimonial
is made TO do more effective service
in proclaiming the marvels of the
healer than the regular scientific
medical practitioner gets from n
lifetime of faithful and efficient
labor.

THERE is no more certain index
to national prosperity and stable
financial conditions than the con-
dition of our financial institutions.
Brndstreet furnishes tnble show
ing the number of suspensions of
national banks. state banks, saw
ings banks, private bnnks, and
loan and trust companies during
1898. us compared with the years
lS93-97. In 1898, for instance.
the total number of such failures
was 81, as compared with l05 in
1897. with 1917 in 1896, with 1875
in 1895, with 50 in 1894, and with
59S in 1898. These figures show
that normal conditions hnve re-
turned, and that prosperity has
resulted. Our industries are pros
pering in all the great lines of eff
fort. Our farms and factories aud
mines are all proftably employed,
This creates prosperity in all the
multitudinous industries depend
ing upon these primary ones, as
we'll as with the railroads, the ar-
teries of commerce aud distrib-
utors of our products. We have
been growing wealthy, us n nation,
for many years. This has finally
resulted in the United States. us it
has in the older countries, in an
abundance of capital mot of cir
culating medium, but of the wealth
which it represents-h reduced
interest rates, so that we have
reached practically the conditions
which place us on a parity with
the other great commercial nations
of the world. Our interest rates
are lower, in some respects, than
in Europe. The legitimate conse-
quence of this will be continuous
advance in the values of all prop
critics during the next two years.
The census next year will most
certainly show astonishing and
gratifying gains.-Telluride Jour

Curious Methods of the Steel Mills

1t has been shown that the qual-
ity of the finished steel does not
depend alone on its chemical COM
position, but that the amount of
work it receives in rolling or forg-
ing, and the finishing temperature,
are also of vital Importance. We
are still learning, year by year,
better to distinguish the effects due
to each, and are getting to-day
results that were formerly consid-
cred impossible. | refer to the
method in use at some American
mills, where they roll the steel in
to plates, shapes, etc, meeting all
the requirements of the most rigid
specifications without making any
preliminary tension tests.
An analysis of each heat or cast
is made while the ingots are still
in the soaking pits; from this anaIy
sis the ultimate strength is estima-
ted; and, without allowing the steel
to cool, it is rolled on orders where,
as shown by the estimated strength.
