BRYAN RETURNS FROM
SOUTH AMERICAN TRIP

New York, April Civ. j. Bryan
came home yesterday. He reached
New York full of enthusiasm about the
wonders of South America. and with
absolutely no ideas. so far as he was
willing to admit. about the state of
affairs politically in this country.
Since late Sunday night the steamer
Caracas, on which Mr.. Bryan came
from San Juan, Porto Rico, was held
up outside Sandy Hook by a heavy
fog. At the quarantine station a tug
with q reception committee composed
of six men waited his coming through
the morning. They We're members of
the Circumnavigators' club, of which
Mr.. Bryan is a member. There was
not a politician on hand to greet him.
Toward noon h fog thinned out
sufficiently to allow the Caraca to
come up the bay.
Mr.. Bryan left Lincoln. Neb.. on
November 10. spending some time in
the southern states. On December 16
he left Key West for Havana. Thence
he Went to Jamaica, Panama, Peru,
Bolivia, Chile, Argentine and Brazil,
returning by way of Porto Rico.

Kansas City, Mo, April 10.

Kansas City, Mo-, April 10.
Before a court room that
was crowded to its utmost
capacity long before the regular
opening hour, James A. Reed to-
day delivered the opening
statement of the prosecution of
the Hyde murder trial.
The opening of the case was
marked by a sharp clash be-
tween attorneys for the two
sides. The defense waged a
hard fight on the court permit
ting Mr.. Reed, as specialcounsel,
to deliver the opening state
ment. Judge Latshaw held that
it was entirely legal, but as a
precautionary move, suggested
that Mr.. Reed be appointed
prosecuting attorney. This was
done.

CATTLE SINK INTO +.
THE GROUND

More than one hundred head of
cattle and half dozen or more wild
horses have been rescued from
death in the crevasses of Jake's
valley during this week, according
to Royal Matthias of the government
forestry service, who returned
from Illipah early this morning.
Constant vigilance on the part of
the stock owners in that section is
all that is preventing heavy loss.
The crevasses continue to get
wider, additional openings..are occur
ing and the fear is expressed that it
may be necessary to drive all stock
from the range if loss would be
prevented.
1t appears that the openings be-
come filled with surface water and
that the cattle and horses in search
OF water walk into the holes and
cannot get out without aid. Riders
are stationed at intervals of a half
mile or so through the danger zone.
These are constantly on the look
out and when an animal is found
struggling in the water it is lassoed
and dragged to safety. In this way
eVeral wild horses in search of
water were dragged from one of the
holes yesterday.
Notwithstanding this precaution
it is believed the stock owners are
experiencing some loss.-Ely Ex-
