DEATH OF A NOTED PIONEER.
W. W. Guthrie, Politician, Lawyer,
Originator of PoIIed Herefords.
FIRST ATTORNEY GENERAL.

Atchison, Rams, 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 i'm
proved in strength.
Mr. Guthrie was the first attorney
general of Kansas after it became a
state, and had been prominently iden-
titled with the interests of Atchison
since 1865, when he came here from
Brown county, where he had been
member of the territorial legislatures
of 1857 and 1859. He had represented
'Atchison in the state legislature, and
as a member of the penitentiary board,
was largely instrumental in the sink
ing of the coal shaft at the state prison.
He owned a 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 associ ton 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 1868,
was an incident of some note to old
timers. Albert Il. 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.

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 its main tracks to
that point. Already work has begun
at the new discovery, giving work to
many men.

governments FORECAST.
The Largest Wheat Crop In The
History Of The Country.
RAILROADS CAN HANDLE 1T.

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 a 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.
Second-Terminal facilities are I'M
dergoing great extension and improve
ments.
Third-Better methods for returning
and utilizing empty cars are being for
mulated.
Fourth-There probably will be no
big coal strike and attendant conse-
quences to upset calculations and
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-
mated, thereby increasing the drawing
power of locomotives.

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


Fort Worth, Texas, April 21.-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 a furore among stocl,men
here and elsewhere, who have about
so, 600 head of cattle ready to go into
Kansas pastures. Cattle with a clear
certificate OF inspection from the fed
eral inspector are refused admission to
that state. John D. Pennington, live

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
