GENERAL REYES GOES TO NEW
YORK BEFORE SAILING
FOR COLOMBIA.

Washington, Jan. 10. - General
Reyes, the Colombian special minister
here, had an hours conference with
the secretary of state at the latter's
home during the day respecting the
Panama situation. Later he left for
New York and will sail for Colombia

Secretary Hay has not come to any
conclusion about sending the CORE

General Reyes. He endeavored to
show General Reyes the futility of
Colombia's efforts to regain Panama,
but regards the matter as still open to
further efforts towards a peaceful ad-
justment.
DR.. Herran, the Colombian charge,
says that he has, as yet, completed no
plans for leaving Washington.
The Associated Press has been in

NORTH DAKOTA HORSES.
II. c. Quinion of Dickinson Had an interest
ing Letter in a Recent Issue of the
Breeders Gazette.

The Gazette:--l have felt great deal
Of interest in series of contributions
appearing in the Gazette concerning the
raising of farm horses and would especi-
ally refer to an article by Mr.. Wing, in
which he detailed the makeup Of his
ideal farm horse. feel an interest be-
cause raise about 100 colts a year.
rely on horse-raising for my bread and
butter and always eagerly receive any
suggestions that would tend to the per-
manent benefit of my herd.
A class of horses is being developed
in this Missouri slope region which
appeals to me as ideal for farm purposes
and it may interest Gazette readers to
have some account of this development
Fifteen years ago the foundation stock
OF this region consisted of Mexican,
Indian, Texas and Oregon horses. These
animals, unaided by ure-bred sires,
could not produce finished tarm AMI
NAL and bad reputation fell upon all
Dakota horses. will describe how this
reputation is being removed. Pure-bred
sires of nearly all draft breeds were in
troduced, but without speaking i'll of any
breed my individual preference is de-
cidedly for the Percheron for improving
foundation such as this region possess
ed.
The Indian and Mexican ponies were
purely bred horses of their type, having
no out-cross to other strains of blood
for about 800 years. Their individual
colors and diminutive size were thus
very hard to eliminate. The Indian
ponies were far easier to improve than
those from Mexico, and by the second
top cross of Percheron blood they pro-
duced horses OF 1900 to I,4oo pounds
greale y improving the feet and keep
ing qualities of the Percheron and tight
cning his joints. The Texan ponies had
an infusion Of Thoroughbred blood; their
size could be improved more rapidly,
but their inherent faults are the restless
disposition and the slender waist of the
race horse. The faults are being reduc-
ed, however, and North Dakota now
shows excellent farm horses of this
class, weighing as high as 1900 pounds
The greater number and the better
quality of these foundation mares we're
from Oregon, and it is in their progeny
that see the most ideal farm horses.
Their feet show a great improvement
over the Percheron, these being neat
and of great wearing qualities. They
beautify the Percheron head, show heavy
bone and great power, with close coup.
ling and smooth solid foundation. A
notable feature is the Strengthening of
the "cow-legs" so generally met in Per
cherons. They are the heaviest grade
horses raised on these ranges and repre-
sent my ideal farm horses.
For whatever part have taken in
tn improvement or North Dakota horses
wish to speak OF my debt to M.
w. Dunham, the late proprietor of
Oaklawn Farm. But for his kindly in

my progress would have been impossi-

Russians Occupy Terminus of New
Chinese Railroad,


Chinese Railroad.
Peking, Jan. 13.--Authentic informa-
ton has reached the legations here
that two divisions of Russian troops
are coming by the Siberian railroad.
A Russian force has occupied the
terminus of the new branch of the
Shanhaillwan-Newchwang railroad, re-
Gently completed by the Chinese. The
terminus is 100 miles northwest of
Newchwang and will be an important
strategic base in the event of war.
The foreigners at Newchwang, fear.
ing the town may become the scene of
hostilities in case of war, on account
OF the presence there of a Russian
garrison, are urging their consuls to
secure action on the part of their gov
ernments to maintain the neutrality
OF Newchwang, asserting that business
will be seriously impaired and adding
that, as the Russian occupation is not
recognized by China or by the powers,
the governments have ground for ac-
ton.

Chingwantao Tuesday carried the

tered into the situation and majority
of the committee voted for St. Louis.
There were two roll calls to select
the city. On the first st. Louis re-
ceived % votes, Chicago 20 and New
York c. On the second ballot st.
Louis received 28 and Chicago 21.

discussion Of politics and the claims
Of various candidates were advocated
by their partisans, but nothing like
