AFTER HIGH-BRED CATTLE.
Americans Spending Zig Money i'm
n United Kingdom for High
Class stock.

London, Dec. 1.-THE last few
months have found in the United
Kingdom an unprecedented number
of American buyers of thoroughbred
cattle, whose purchases of high-class
breeding stock aggregate many thou
sands of pounds. A number of the
animals bought are intended for ex-
hibition at the st. Louis exposition.
The prices paid range from S2,100 to
over $6,250 per head. Scores of high
priced bulls and cows have been
shipped during the summer and fall.
Among the buyers now here is C. E..
Marvin, of Lexington, KY, who will
take back 25 thoroughbreds in May
and July. j. S. Goodwin, of Chicago,
has purchased a number of Angus
breeders, and the Armours' agent is
sending 100 Herefords TO the United
States. A number of purchases also
have been made of tiny Dexter and
Kerry cattle in Ireland, the breeding
of which has recently become quite
the fashion in England under the
patronage of Lady L%ansdown and
other titled fanciers.

BOSTON CATTLE QUARANTINE.
No Reply Yet Received from British
officials in Regard to Re
quested Notifications.

Boston, Dec. $40 reply has been
received as yet as to the ~cablegram
sent to the British government by
Acting Consul Clipperton, expressing
the desire of steamship men and cat
tie shippers hat its quarantine
against the shipment of cattle from
New England be modified so to per-
nit shipments from Portland Of
western Canadian cattle. Meanwhile
New England cattle trade is at a
standstill. Advices from Washington,
however, to the effect that the Brit
ish authorities have requested an Off
cial statement regarding the foot and
mouth disease in New England from
the United States government, and its
opinion as to the wisdom of allowing
cattle to be loaded at Portland, give
reason to hope that some moditica-
ton of the order may soon be made.
DR.. Salmon, of the United States
bureau of animal industry, said that
it had been his intention to have the
work of Strengthening the affected cat
tie begun by Tuesday, but the heavy

SKETCH OF THE GREAT MAN.
Served in Congress Eleven Year
and Was Twice It's Speaker.

Mr.. Reed was born in Portland, Me,
October IS. 1889. He graduated from Dart
mouth college in 1860, and was admitted
to practice law in 1865. He served in both
branches of the Maine legislature, ana
was state attorney-general from 1917 to
1872, and city solicitor of Portland from
1874 to 1877. He was elected from the FIRST
Maine district to the Forty-fifth congress
in ISIS. and was reelected to every con-
gress after that until his retirement in
1900. In 1889 he was elected speaker OF the
house of representatives. Inc next con-
gress was democratic. But In 1888 ne was
again chosen speaker, and again in 1897.
Mr.. Reed saw the power of speaker
greatly increased in practical use. lie ex-
cited sharp objection by his ruling as
present ali members whom he might see,
whether they answered to their names or
not. so securing a working quorum de-
spite the resistance of the minority. His
ruling was condemned by his opponents,
but was subsequently adopted as a rule
of the house. He carried the power OF
the speaker to control the course of legis-
lation to the highest point, and by his
rulings prevented obstruction, and him
dered the passage of some measures
which he disapproved.
In 1896 he was a favorite candidate of
hard-money republicans for the presiden-
tial nomination, and was widely acknowl-
edged as the able leader of his party. In
April, 1899, it was announced that he in
tended to retire from political life and en-
ter upon the practice of law in New York
city, having made arrangements to enter
the law firm of Simpson, Thatcher & Bar
mum, No. 10 Wall street.
He built up a great practice to which he
gave his entire attention, his only diver
sion being the writing of articles on po-
Iitical questions for magazines and news
papers,

A YANKEE FROM RUSSIA.
Says We Must Have Reciprocal

New York, Dec. 7.-Enoch Emory, a
wealthy merchant of Russia, who, IS
years ago, left his home in the fishing
town of Gloucester, to engage in bus
mess with a native merchant in a
Siberian town at the mouth of the
Amoor river, is in this city. He de-
clares the Russian trade demands ev-
erything American, from a steel
twin-screw steamer to an American
shoe.
what the United States and Rus
STA need now and must have" said
Mr.. Emory, sis a new commercial
treaty. Two countries, each of which
has the warmest and friendliest feel
ing for the other, have not time to
bicker over sugar, oil or anything
else. There is a country that needs
our machinery, our products of every
sort. The people want it from us
rather than from any other country
of the world, and we should arrange
it so that we could supply them. We
must have a reciprocal treaty, and
get into Russia on the ground floor"

HON. TH0S. B. REED DEAD.
The Former Speaker Of the House
of Representatives Passes
Away in Washington.
MEMBERS OF HIS FAMILY PRESENT.
A Brief Sketch of One of the Most Force
full and Resourceful ParIiamentarians
of His Day Served in Congress Eleven
Years and Was Twice Elected Speaker
of the House.

Washington, Dec. Former Speak
er Thomas b. Reed died at 1910
o'clock Saturday morning of Bright's
disease after six days illness.
The hope of his recovery enter
tanned by his physicians began to
wane at $3.50 o'clock Saturday night,
when the last bulletin on his condi-
ton IA issued. 1t announced that a
decided turn for the worse had be-
gun, and that the functions of the
kidneys had almost been suppressed.
From that time he sank rapidly, and
at II o'clock the doctors announced
that his death during the night was
inevitable.
Mr.. Reeds family was with him.
The end was without pain.
Mr.. Reed reached Washington Sun
day, having come to attend to some
matters in the United States supreme
court. He was at the capitol Monday
visiting with friends and former as
s~ociates in congress and witnessed
the converting of the second session
of the Ffty-seventh congress.
Complained of Gastric Distress.
Apparently he was enjoying good
health, but later in the day he called
on Dr.. F. A.. Gardner and complained
of gastric distress.
Symptoms of appendicitis appeared,
though his condition was not consid-
cred alarming. A trained nurse re-
NAMED with him throughout Tuesday
night, and the patient showed signs
of improvement.
Mrs. Reed and daughter, Miss Kit
tie, arrived Wednesday, and have re-
manned with Mr.. Reed at the Airing
ton hotel since.
On Thursday the physicians an
nounced that the appendical symp-
toms were abating, but that kidney
trouble had developed, giving a more
serious aspect to the case.
A Feeling Toast.
While the former speaker was dy-
ing the Gridiron club was holding
its first banquet of the congress ses-
sion in the hotel below. Shortly be-
lore mlunlSlt III was dliiouiSCo Una
Mr.. Reed was dying. President
Wynne made a feeling reference to
Mr.. Reed, who had been the guest
at many Gridiron banquets, and Maj.
John NJ. Carson, the correspondent
of the Philadelphia Ledger, who had
known Mr.. Reed for 80 years, spoke a
few words in praise of him. The club
and its guests drank a final toast to
Mr.. Reed. Before the glasses were
emptied he was dead.
Fought His Battles DER Again.
His mind was active, but it did not
work clearly. He wandered to the
scenes of his boyhood and later went
to the notable fights he had in the
house. He spoke portions of his
great speeches, and for a moment or
two imagined that he was in the
speakers chair and was presiding
over the house.
At five o'clock in the afternoon Mr..
Reed became incoherent. He was I'M
able to answer a direct question. and
from that time until II o'clock was
in a. state of semi-consciousness.
At II o'clock he relapsed into I'M
consciousness.

Mexicaus Must Take silver.
