North German Lloyd steamer Kaiser
Wilhelm IL. which arrived at Hoboken.
Lord Beresford came to America TO
look after the estate OF his brother
Deleval, who died recently In Mexi.
co, leaving an estate that Is valued
at about 100000, which was be-
dueathsd to the admiral and his broth.
er. Lord Marcus Beresford. Lord Mar.
Gus was to have come here also, but
was taken with influenza shortly be-
fore the Kaiser sailed. and was com.
PEELED to remain at home.
Lord Charles said his stay in this
country would be short, because his
attention Is needed at home.
II will be very much pressed for
a time" said Lord Beresford. az am
very much afraid that i will have to
prove the will of my brother in four
countrics-the United States, Mexico.
Canada and England-sa must hurry
through in order to get back home by
March 80
With regard to the negress, Flora
Wolf. who was housekeeper for Dele
val Bcrcsford, on his ranch in the
State of chihuahua, Mexico, Lord
Beresfora had very little to say. ex-
cept hat her claim upon the estate, II
any she had, had been satisfactorily
arranged.
He was quite sure that there would
be no long legal contest.
1.-THE woman was very kind to my
brother and narsed him through an at.
tack of yellow fever" Lord Beres-
ford said.
The Davis.Swettenham affair Lord
Charles smilingly declined to discnss,
except that, it did not disarrange the
god feeling between Americans and
English and that he fact that It had
gone far to show the sincerity OF the
profession of good fellowship.
Nations are individuals on larger
scale." said Lord Beresford. "Natur.
ally a man who had gone to help an.
other in distress would be hurt were
he rebutfed. am glad that 1t has
all come out SO well. But nothing else
could have been the outcome since
America and England are on such
friendly terms. state of affairs that
will continue"
Asked for his opinion of tha likeli.
hood OF war between Japan and the
United States the admiral said:
THAT Is your own affair, but
think that he United States has too
much common sense TO go to war over
such matter"
In the event Of war between this
country and Japan, where would Eng.
land stand In view of her treaty with
Japan?" was asked of the admiral. He
smiled, thought moment or so and
said:
"There will be no war--you may
rest assured of that. cannot conceive
OF anything arising to disrupt. the ties
that bind the two great English.speak.
ing nations"
With regard to the building of q
navy, Lord Beresford said that he was
glad to know that this country appre-
ciated the value of effective fleets.
His idea is that battleships are destin.
ed to be mitch larger In the future and
that the Dreadnought would be thought
small at no distant date.

RULING OF THE BoARG
SHEEP ARE ALSO TO BE PRO-
TECTED IN HOPES OF CLEAR
ING DISEASES.

Denver.-At the meeting Of the State
Board of Cattle Inspectors held on.
September 27th, it was decided to
make the interstate inspection law ap-t
plicable to state traffic. The following
orders were given out:
Cattle shippers in eastern Colorado
in the area under quarantine for cattle
scabies. on account of the cooperation
of the State Board of Stock Inspection
Commissioners with the government
inspectors, should, within ten days OF
the date of their shipment, apply to-
DIR. Lowell Clarke, 800 Quincy building,
Denver, Colorado, or to one of the local
bureau inspectors, for a permit allow
ing the cattle to be shipped as 'Unin-
spected Clean Cattle in which case
they would be handled without restric-
tion at the market centers
However, should the B. A. l. fr-
spector be convinced that the cattle
are part of diseased herd such per
init would be refused and the cattle
could only be shipped as Uninspected
Exposed Cattle and submitted to in
federal inspection is maintained.
This, however, has nothing what
ever to do with the brand inspection of
cattle which is maintained by the
State Board of Stock Inspection com
missioners.
Whereas, Upon the request of tho
state veterinary surgeon of Colorado,
the secretary Of agriculture has con
sented to cooperate with the Colo
RADIO State Board of Stock Inspection
commissioners, in the control of scao-
les of cattle and sheep within the state
of Colorado
1T is hereby ordered. That the regr-
lations of the honorable secretary OF
agriculture, known as order No. 143,
now effective in the interstate move
ment of cattle and sheep, be and the
same are hereby extended so as TO
control the interstate movement of cat
tie and sheep within the state of Coo
RADIO in the same manner as interstate
movements are now controlled, namely,
by inspection and certifcatiOn by in
spectors of the bureau of animal N.
dustry, or by permits according to reg
ulation 81 of bureau of animal indus

state movement of cattle, and accord

refreshing in repose. The chin was
resolute. the mouth was large but
shapely and brilliant, the nose pos

WEALTHY FARMER is KILLED.
Bloody Battle Between Farmers Near
Greeley Ends Fatally.

Greeley, Colo.-As the result of
three-cornered battle near Johnstown
last night, William Davis. Sr, was
shot and killed by II. T. Wilson. ten
ant on one of his farms The other
party to the trouble was William Da-
Wis. Jr., son of the man who was killed,
and the fatality was the result of a
duel between young Davis and Will
son.
While the two were quarreling over
farm matters the elder Davis came up
and became mixed In the alteration.
The young men finally drew their re-
volvers and began firing at each other,
and it is alleged that during the duel q
bullet from the gun of Wilson killed
the old man. All were prominent in
that section. The Davises are heavy
land owners and Wilson is the son of
wealthy cattleman near Johnstown.
There is considerable feeling among
the residents of the vicinity over the
murder and Wilson was brought to
Greeley by Sheriff Florence and is now
in the county jail.
1t is not known that the Davises and
Wilson ever had any trouble before. 1t
is understood that there were no wit
nesses to the affair, with the exception
of the three involved.

Fire Burned Eighteen Months now Out.

Trinidad, Colo.-The fire which
burned for one and one-half years in
the Engleville mine has been com.
pletely eXtinguished. An official an
nouncement was made today by the of
ficers of the Colorado Fuel & Iron
Company, who made personal trip
of inspection.
The fire broke out in May. 1906. and
was supposed to have been Of incen-
diary origin. An eighteen-year old
Mexican boy, Martinez. was tried on
the charge of arson, but was acquitted
on the ground that the fire was acci-
dental. He fell asleep, and the fire
was supposed to have been started by
mis- lamp. An area of over 1000 feet
was burned over.
Every available method of extin-
gushing mine fires was tried without
success. when finally the late John
kebler, then general manager of the
C. F. & l., gave the idea of fighting the
blaze with carbonic acid gas. A plant
was constructed at the mouth of the
mine. and the gas was piped in a dis
tance of one and one-helf miles, and
the experiment proved successful.

Hay Hand in Trouble.

Sheridan, Wyo.-Ed Hay. soldier
from Fort Mckenzie, is in jail here,
charged with assault on Mrs. Addie
Bates, wife of William Bates, at whose
place Hay was temporarily employed.
Bates story Is that he and Hay had
been working on ditch near the
Bates ranch on Beaver creek and Hay
went to the house to secure drink
of water. He was absent an undue
time and Bates went to the ranch to
investigate. There he found Hay. he
asserts, in the act OF assaulting Mrs.
Bates. Although armed with revol-
yer, Bates did not destroy the despoiler
of his home, but held Hay up with the
gun and marched him to town. where
he was turned over to the sheriff. Hay
denies that he was guilty of an as
sault.

Los Angeles, Cal.-The most sue

theater in the city donated at least one
act, and enough high-class talent was
secured to give performance of three
and one-half hours.
The local telegraphers entered on
the eighth week of their struggle for
better working conditions. the strike
which is now prevalent over the entire
country having its inception here Of
ficers of the local union declare there
have been only three desertions during
that entire epriod. The local treasury
is now in better shape than at any

the city. and the strikers are paid
