Kimball, S. ~, July 1s.-Sheepmen
have been marketing their wool from
the range across the river the past
three weeks. and this brings to light
many interesting facts with regard
to the immensely Of this great indus
try onsthe Dakota ranges and-the al
most fabulous sums Of money which
are made every year thereby.
The wool clip from the Sawdey
ranchsnear Houston, west of the riv-
err amounted to 10000 pounds. The
entire clip was marketed the other.
day.at 10 ia cents per pound, maxi
Ing a8totakfor the wool of $1,625. Be
sides the wool, the Sawdey flock also
produced over 700 fine lambs this
year, worth in the ~neighborhood OF
$500. AS will be seen, this makes
a total Of something like $3,125.
The flock of sheepSon the Dorman
ranch near Hotch City produced this
year 1900 pounds Of wool, the 1900
sheep sheaTing an average of six
pounds apiece. When this clip was
marketed few days ago 1t sold for
about 81, 500. In addition to this wool,
the proprietors of the Dorman ranch
have also marketed this summer 5st
wethers, which averaged los pounds
apiece. They sold for $3.50 per 100
pounds, bringing $3.75 apiece, or
$3.50 for the bunch. Taking this with
the wool clip makes the cash receipts
on the Dornnn ranch about $4,000 so
far this year.

Wasn Biunder.
Washington, July 16.--fSsews OF the.
Battle of Tien Tsin, as brought by As
ISOLATED Press cables direct from the
field, was conveyed to the Chinese
minister early today. The minister
expressed astonishnicnt and profound
regret at the startling Developments
but5asked to be excused from any pub
lie declaration on the subject. Al
though the minister will make no
public u~tterance, the Associated Press
is able to give what is believed toSbei
the aspect of the situation from the
Chinese standpoint. According to;
this view, the movement of the allied
forces from the foreign settlement
down the river upon TIL. native walled
city was not only unfortunate, but
Esral1ght with the greatest Ganger.
1yitn the fate of the foreign Legations
and the ministers ut Peking still in
doubt, the allied forces might well
have turned their attention toscutting

officials and citizens at the capital.
In that event, it is said, the normal

been maintained, but by I'M assault on
the walled city, the nntiyes within the
city might naturally have been ex-
pected to defend themselves, beliey-
ing their homes about to be attacked.
They have been pennsd much within
the city, knowing nothing what has
occurred without, and, from the Chi
nose standpoint, it would probably be.
found that it was in defense, and
against an unexpected attack, that
the present slaughter occurred. One
of the suggestions Of the day, made !
anofficialqnarter,i is that q commission
be at once appointed to proceed to China
to Investigate the facts of the present
situation, thus giving q basis for intelli-
gent action. At any other time the sug-
gestion would probably be welcomed.
but the situation appears too desperate
to await the slow process OF o commits

London, July 1s.-up to this hour,

sacre at Peking from any source.
In the house of commons last even.
ing, beyond an admission that there
was no ground for hoping that the
report wa not true, William ST. John
Frederick, parliamentary secretary to
the foreign Office, had nothing to
communicate. An unusual hush fell
upon the chamber when the subject
came up. "a few members doHed
their hats, but otherwise there was no.
demonstration.
No question was put to Lord Sails
bury in the house of lords, probably,
because Of preconcerted agreement, it
being considered that in the present
stage of affairs 1t would be only EN-
barrassing to force the premier to
make n statement.
1t vas whispered onfthe ministerial
side of the commons that the next

kilograms from Shanghai and Che
foo indicate m increasingly serious
state of affairs. 1t is alleged that the
foreign consuls Mt Shanghai have
cabled their governments that there Is
urgent need of wnrsllips to protect
that port, owing to the menacing at
titude OF the Chinese and the tempta-i
ton to loot the vast stores of mer-
chandise recently accumulated there.
1t seems that the Chinese have already
threatened to fire the great oil tanks
on the Pao Tung side Of. the city.
From Chefoo comes the report that
the entire adult male population OF
the three provinces OF Chi Ii, Shan ST
and Shan Tnng are masslng to de-
fend Picking in the conviction that the
powers mean war. There is little
doubt that a further check Of the al
lies at Tien Tsin would be the signal.
