GOVERNMENTS FORECAST.
The Largest Wheat Crop In The
History Of The Country
RAILROADS CAN HANDLE IT.

Chicago, April 23.-In view of the
governments forecast of the biggest
winter wheat crop in the history OF the
country and the prospect of an immense
acreage of spring wheat and corn, it is
asked: Will the railroads be able to
handle their freight throughout the
season readily, or will there be another
congestion like that of last fall and
winter. The question is being asked
seriously, even at this early stage, and
not railroad man of the West, so far
as heard from, is bold enough to say
there will be no such hindrance OF
traffic. Without exception, however,
traffic managers and other officials talk
enthusiastically, and cite various reasons
why they believe the experiences of
past season will not be repeated.
Briefly stated, here are the reasons
for a hopeful view:
First-Car capacity and traction
power are being greatly enlarged.
OccOnu- ldCilibiCo uiS
dergoing great extension and improve
ments.
Third-Better methods for returning
and utilizing empty cars are being for
mulated.
Fourth-There probably will be nc
big coal strike and attendant consc-
quences to upset calculations and dis
turb natural movements of freight.
Fifth-Elevator and storage facilities
will be better than heretofore.
Sixth-Much freight hitherto passing
through Chicago to the East will be
diverted to Canadian and Southern
lines, going to the Atlantic by rail
through the provinces and by water
from New Orleans.
Seventh-Roadbeds are being hard
ened, grades reduced and curves elimi'
nated thereby increasing the drawing
power of locomotives.

street Car Barn Consumed.

Wichita, April 21.-Shortly after
midnight and afterall cars had entered
the street car barn, the barn took
fire from some unknown cause and was
burned down. There were eight sum-
mer cars OH the south track, each fully
equipped and nearly ready to start for
the summers business. All of these
were burned or damaged to such an
extent that they cannot be used this
year. These cars are worth about
three thousand dollars each. There
were five other summer cars, but the
motors had been taken off and the
damage to them will not be so very
heavy. Every car in the barn was
damaged beyond use. Supt. Morrison
stated that the total damage would
amount to something over thirty thou
sand dollars.

TEXAS CATTLE BARRED.
Federal Inspector Instructed not to In
spect Cattle for Kansas.

Fort Worth, Texas, April 2l.-The
refusal of the Kansas live stock sani-
tary board to admit Texas cattle to
that state from north of the Texas line
has created furore among stoclSmen
here and elsewhere, who have about
so, 900 head of cattle ready to go into
Kansas pastures. Cattle with clear
certificate OF inspection from the fed
eral inspector are refused admission to
that state. John d. Pennington, live
took lisp ector of the Frisco, wired
Governor Bailey, of Kansas, to rule on
whether, after Texas cattle above the
line had passed the government in
spection, if they would be admitted by
the Kansas authorities, subject to state
inspection and the payment OF the
cents per head inspection fees. Thou
sands of cattle are being held waiting
admission. DIR. Kline, at the Fort
Worth stock yards, has been instruct
ed by the federal officials to not inspect
cattle for Kansas

Much Exaggeration.

Washington, April 24.-Postmaster
General Payne, in discussing reports
of attempts interfere with the investi-
CATION of the affairs of the postoffice
department. said there had been only
one member of either house of congress
who had shown to him any particular
interest in the investigation. This was
senator who he did not name, and
who had asked that he be given an
opportunity to be heard by the post
master general if anything were done
with the person in the department in
whom he was interested. Mr. Payne
said there was great deal of exagger-
alton in some of the reports regarding
the investigation, and that the fourth
assistant postmaster general was
making very careful investigation
along business lines.

DEATH Of A NOTED PIONEER.
W. W. Guthrie, Politician, Lawyer,
Originator of Pol|ed HerefOrds'
FIRST ATTORNEY GENERAL

Atchison, Kans., April 24.-General
w. w. Guthrie, prominent attorney
and stock raiser, died at his home in
Atchison of uraemic poisoning, aged 6S
years. He enjoyed good health until
last fall, when he was trampled upon
by one of his fancy cattle, and never
quite recovered from his injuries.
Three months ago he went to Arizona
and California, in company with Mrs.
Guthrie. They returned home last
week, and Mr.. Guthrie was not inn
proved in strength.
Mr.. Guthrie was the first attorney
general of Kansas after it became II
state, and had been prominently iden-
tilted with the interests of Atchison
since 1865 when he came here from
Brown county, where he had been a
member of the territorial legislatures
of 1857 and 1859. He had represented
Atchison in the state legislature, ana
as member of the penitentiary board,
was largely instrumental in the sink
ing of the coal shaft at the state prison.
He owned ranch of 1000 acres In
Chase county, Kans., besides farms in
Atchison, Doniphan, Nemaha and Pot
tawatomie counties. He originated the
polled Hereford breed of cattle, which
was the hobby of his later years AT
the annual meeting of the Chicago Live
Stock Association last fall, he organized
an association of polled Hereford
breeders, and was made its president
He is survived by wife and six chill
dren who were all at home when death
came. Mr.. Guthrie's marriage to MISS
Julia Fowler, of st. Joseph, in 1863
was an incident of some note to old
timers. Albert fl. Horton, late CHIEF
Justice of Kansas, was his best man,
and the two crossed the river on the ice
at Elwood on their hands and knees.

Boxers Suppressed.

Washington, April %. Minister Con-
ger reports to the state department
from PelSing under date of March IL
that an attempt was made in the dis
trict of Yutien, about 100 miles west
of Pelin, to reorganize the Boxer
movement, but it was promptly sup
pressed by the energetic action of the
viceroy, the famous Yuan Shin Hi,
who stood like rock against the Box
.ers in 1900 Several Boxers are to be
beheaded and their heads exhibited
where the organization started. Mr..
Conger says only such prompt and Sc
we're measures will prevent similar or
ganizations in other localities.

keeper, clerk, stenographer, foreman

without an instant's warning, and a
second after the concussion the walls
had been thrown down and the entire
structure was a mass of flames. Not
a person in the Office escaped alive.
Five worlSmen engaged on the second
floor were thrown twenty feet into the
air, and these were the only persons
who escaped. They climbed througl
the debris and are now at the city hos

Coal Oil And Flint Glass.

Wathena, Kas., April 23.-Agents of
the Standard OIL company have been
in this vicinity for several days leasing
land supposed to contain coal and oil.
Thus far, nearly 400 acres have been
leased within radius of five miles OF
this city. Included in this lease is the
rock quarry one-half mile south OF
Wathena, in which six-foot vein of
pure white flint glass sand has recently
been discovered, and is one of the most
important OF anything yet found on
the lands. 1t is learned that the st.
Joseph and Grand Island railroad will
build spur from it's main tracks to
that point. Already work has begun
at the new discovery, giving work to
many men.

Topeka, April ga number of tele-
phone companies have failed to comply
with the law requiring statements 10
the railroad assessors 1t is required
that all of the statements be sent in by
April 20. The penalty for non-compli-
ance with the law is rather severe. II
the statement is not in by April 20, a
fine Of $500 may be assessed against the
delinquent with siOO for every day oi
delay after April 20. II is probable that
proceedings will be commenced against
some Of the companies.

tn stnn Timber Stealing.

Atolsa, I. T., April 21.-oficials Of
the Indian department are determined
to check the stealing of timber in the
Choctaw nation. Since the confiscation
of the nine sawmills in the southeast
ern part of the nation the authorities
have ascertained that several other
mills in other parts of the nation are
being operated unlawfully. Scouts
have been sent out to locate and take
charge of them. Some of the Choctaw
Indians themselves are in league with
the concerns swiping timber.

Chnctawa Are BaptIst.

AtolSa, l. T., April 9l.-Taken as a
whole, there is not a more devout ma
tionality on earth than The full blood
Choctaw Indians. OF course, there are
some mean and ungodly Indians
among them-in fact, large number.
But the per cent compared to the whole
number is less than that of many other
people. Every little settlement has its
church. The crude church buildings
are almost as numerous as the little
red school houses in Kansas. Many oi
the churches are used as school houses.

Minneapolis, April 27.-The latest
development in the flour mill situation
is the announcement that the interstate
commerce commission will investigate
the discrimination against -four in fa-
vor of wheat in freight tariffs which
resulted in the total suspension of the
-four manufacturing industry of the
northwest. Millers look upon the an
nouncement as the forerunner of re-
lief, while the transportation company
seems displeased that the commission
is TO interfere.

Assistant Superintendent Moffit of
New York City has taken charge of the
affairs of both companies in Butte and
declares that under no circumstances
will the unions be recognized. An in

RUSSIA BENT ON HOLDING II.
Determined to Acquire Permanent
Sovereignty in Manchuria.
IN DEFIANCE OF TREATIES.

Washington, April 25.-Minlster Con-
ger, from Pelsin, has cabled to Secre-
tary Hay synopsis of the demands
made upon China by Russia respecting
control of Manchuria.
The political impression here is that
the Russian action is distinct breach
OF faith with the Uniced States. The
Russian government pledged itself
three times formally and the docu-
ments are on record that the open door
should be maintained in Manchuria
and Russian troops would be with
drawn as soon as peace was restored.
Finally the latter promise took the
shape OF treaty stipulation. 1t was
provided that the evacuation should
take place within three distinct peri
ods. The last Russian soldier should
have quit Manchuria on the Sth of this
month, according to that treaty.
Officials declare that there is no dan
ger of war with Russia over this incl
dent. The government of the United
States has recorded it's ideas of what
should be done in Manchuria, and as
the result of Secretary Hays projected
conference with the president, it is
probable that further remonstrance
will be added But it is anticipated
that Russia will for the time being at
least allay foreign oppositson, or at
least that of the United States, by car
rying out it's pledge as to the "open
door, There will be no additional
treaty ports in Manchuria if Russia
succeeds in this last move.
An official.of the government well
informed regarding Chinese affairs
says that the step taken by Russia is
one for which she has been preparing
foi number of years Extraordinary
as it may seem, he says that there
seems to be no way of preventing the
consummation of Russia's plan. He
had no doubt that Russia would event
ually apply the Russian tariff to the
new territory, in which case the Uni
ted States would endeavor to sell the
Russians raw material for manufacture
in place of the finished products which
now go to that part of China.

Both Boer Presidents.

Montreaux, April elf President
Stein, OF the Orange Free State, lives
through the summer, which is very
doubtful, he will ask Chamberlain to
permit him to return to South Africa.
He has reason to believe that permis.
sion will be freely granted as his pres
ence there would tend toward har-
mony. The heads OF the Stein and
Kruger households exchange daily
bulletins on the conditions of the ex-
presidents. 1t is thought here that
Kruger's days are numbered and Stein
& not much better.

Rebels stin Hold The city.

San Domingo, April 24.-Troops OF
the government shelled this city and
several houses were damaged. The
government soldiers attacked the city
in force at several different points, the
fighting lasted for four hours. The
government troops sustained heavy
losses, Gen. Cordero, minister of the
interior; Gen. Alvarez, governor OF
Puerto Plata and Gen. Queseda being
killed Over 100 government soldiers
were killed or wounded and the gov
ernment forces had TO Withdraw.
