vent her uncle from shooting, but
failed She now lies prostrated at

SCARCITY OF WATER
ON THE BELEN CUTOFF

The contractors who are building
the Belen cutoff are experiencing Ii
great deal of difficulty because of the
scarcity of water. 1t is reported that
building on a stretch of seventy-six
miles between the Pecos river and
Epris, mas not been started, owing to
he fact that there is no water, or
prospects of water, within a distance
OF twelve miles along the surveyed
route. The country is very rough
here, and the idea of hauling the
water every day would involve an
enormous expense that the contrac-
tors do not care to risk for fear of
losing money on their contracts. It
Is not known what will be done on
this portion of the cutoff, but it is
certain that the contractors must at
once determine some means of get
ting water. There are about 1000
men at work on the new line at pres
ent. The main contract for the con-
struction of the cutoff is held by the
Lantry-Sharp Construction company,
while this company mas sub-let con
tracts to various other contracting
companies.

ter here, 10000 We're purchased for
killers at other points, and country
buyers took the balance. over 900
car loads. Prices declined IS to 30
cents during the week, most of the
loss being on medium class stockers
and feeders and the least on westerns
suitable for the killers. These cattle
are killing out better than heretofore.

S4.75 to 4.85; some choice Arizona
yearlings at $40 last week, weighing
