The fire southeast of New England
two weeks ago was much worse than first
reported. Ed. Barry was burned out on
the south side and Henry Barry will
have to look for new winter quarters
lack Lallv and Howard Murphy lost
about all their ranges. The Beicigls,
Baker and Fred Griswold we're also
losers.
J.. A. Caldwell of Gladstone has Ioc
unbroken horses that he will sell at right
prices. See him and you will find that
he means just what he says. lo-I5-ft
1t has been awful for cattlemen the
past ten days. Orders for $50 to zoe
cars could not be filled on account Of
the shortage of stock cars and the cattle
have been on poor range day after day
H. Curliss and sons got disguised with
the situation on Monday and turned &c
carloads of cattle back to their range
about 100 miles south. On Wednesday
cars were received for a small train, and
]. E. Phelan got the last of his cattle
loaded. The following day n cars were
secured here and &c each at Gladstone,
Taylor and Richardson. Supt. Gibson
stated to the PRESS on Thursday that
he had reason to think that conditions
would be more favorable next week. He
stated that this division was getting its
full share OF the stock cars. He said he
had done everything in his power tc
help the shippers out. No one seems to
know just why there has been such a
shortage OF cars, but probably it is large.
ly due to the strike. People all want tc
ship at once, now that the strike is
settled.
John Kudrna was in from the north
this week to deliver sheep to H. L
Dickinson.
