Beers poured in a heavy rifle fire. Lieu

More Feed Than U.uaI.

Sioux City, Sept. 81 believe that,
instead Of their being shortage of
feed this winter. there will be more
than usual" said G. A. Brown. of An
thon. today. ..The farmers were fright
ened by the reports that there would be
a shortage and took every precaution to
save all the feed. The straw has been
carefully stacked and all will be well
preserved. The meadows were raked a
second time. that every whisk of hay
might be secured. Almost every farm
er is making arrangements to cut his
fodder. You know that a, great deal
more is saved when fodder is fed from
the shock than when it is eaten in the
field. The corn crop will be bigger than
we expected. 1t will not average below
a half crop. and probably good deal
over 1t. The farmers will get good
deal more for it. enough more, think,
that they really lose nothing by the
shortage. The only ones who will suf-
fer in the last will be those feeding cat
tie: they will put higher priced corn into
their beeyes"

New York, Sept. 3.-Thousands OF doll
lars more are coming from England to
be put on the Shamrock. Before leaving
London William ]. Kingsley was in.
structed by several clubmen who were
not included in the big pool covered by
the Pittsburg hnanciers to cable them
of the plentifulness Of American money.
He will cable to London for all the En-
glish money in sight. Among those who
will be apprised of the condition here
will be the marquis Of Ormond, Frank
Gardner and Enoch Wishard.
Mr.. Kingsley admitted that President
Schwab, of the steel trust, is one of the
men he was after to cover the $780,
pool. Betting men do not look favorably
upon Lawson's offer to put $4,000 on
the Constitution, but it is the general
belief by both Englishmen and local
agents that his wager will not be COW
cred on either side of the water. The
willingness of Englishmen to back the
Shamrock II. seems to Mr.. Kingsley to
show the great revival of interest which
has come into English yachting circles.
Never in the history of the sport will
there be so many English Watching ex-l
perts here to follow and report the races
for English newspapers.
Altho inf1uenences have been at work
for several weeks now the efforts have
been conducted with the greatest se-
crecy, and it is known that the New
York club committee has been unsuc-
cessful in it's endeavors to get c. Oliver
Iselin to represent that organization on
the Shamrock during her match this
month. Mr. Iselin, after his splendid
management of the Columbia on her
victories over the first Shamrock, an
nounced that SO far as cup defense was
concerned he was forever done with
yachting. He had worked hard for
three years preventing the trophy from
going abroad, and he was tired Of the
sport.
