LOOKING FOR GRASS.
Kansas City Cattle Dealers Turn TO-
ward This Country.

A telegram was received by
Chief Burlington yesterday after.
noon from N. Douthitt, general
live stock agent OF the Missouri
Pacific railroad, inqiuring if cattle
could be shipped TO the grazing
lands in the Cherokee nation, from
the glutted market at Kansas City.
A reply was sent stating, that
the law prohibited the importation
Of any foreign cattle except, be-
tween December 1st and March
1st.
This cuts off the only grass
land contiguous to the overstocked
market, as reports from Oklaho-
ma are TO the effect that the grass
in that territory, is nearly burned
up. The blighting touch of the
drought. has extended over a
tremendous area, destroying the
grass throughout Missouri and
Kansas, and has resulted in thou
sands of cattle being dumped
on a surfeited market. Twenty
three thousand head were received
at Kansas City, Wednesday and
Thursday. The ultimate result
on the panicky market cannot be
foretOld, but unless relief is speed
lily obtained. serious losses are
sure 10 result.

New York, June i5.-Everything about

had worked as carpenter all his e,and

He chose the haven of which he knew
nothing. His wife and his six children
were i'm their graves. one OF his sons,
policeman, had committed suicide about
six years ago. Herford thought there was
nothing for him In life and calmly and
even with smile of resignation on ms

then went TO the carpenter shop and
made his preparations for death.
First the old carpenter lighted his pipe
and then stretched himself at full length
upon his work bench. He evidently re-
mained there for ten or afteen minutes
When ne had fully made up his mind nc
placed a revolver to the right side or MS

When the police came they found that
the pipe was shll lighted as IL lay upon
