100000 FIRE IN
OLDHAM YESTERDAY
HLAZE WIPES OrT NEARLY
EVERYTHING AROUND THE
RAILROAD STATION.

Oldham. s. D.-F:rc of unknown
origin which started yesterday after
noon in an elevator here, wiped out
five elevators, the station. section
house, cars of grain and all com.
mgs OF the Milwaukee line. a flour
house, cars of grain and all cocm-
bustible material in the vicinity of
the railroad tracks with the eXtcp-
ton OF a single elevator. and Mas
only prevented from extending tc
the business street by the timely az
rival and desperate work of the fire
companies from Madison and Lake
Preston. The loss, not yet estimated
probably will be in the vicinity of
100000.
The property destroyed is: Met
calf elevator, Jones elevator. Kctch-
UNI elevator. Farmers elevator,
George and Brown elevator, Milwau-
kee passenger station, Milwaukee
section house, -four house belonging
to Lake Preston Milling company.
five thousand bushels of grain in

Sheds belonging to Milwaukee line.
Tho blaze was discovered in the
afternoon, in the Metcalf elevator.
i'll which there was no one at the
time. and already had Cotton such
Roadway that it was impossible to
discover what had been lis origin.
The rapidity with which the fire
made Roadway was terric. and the
effort OF the volunteer fire depart
ment which was provided with little
equipment for fighting, were futile.
In a few moments the fire had
spread to another elevator only a
few feet away, and it was not long
before tho entire row of elevators
which lines the Milwaukee tracks
had been ignitcd.

PROJECT
PLANNED AT PIERRE
PROPOSED TO PUMP W.ATEI;
FROM THE MiSSOuRi FOR
SULlA MD HvGHES COuN.
TIES.

Pierre, S. D.-A meeting was held
in this city last evening which had
for its purpose the taking of pre-
liminary steps toward securing data
for action on irrigation of a large
part of the Missouri slope in the en-
Nral part of the state. The plan
coAtcmpiates the use OF power
which can be generated at Little
Bend for pumping, and the throwing
Hughes and sully counties. The
project is one which will require a
large amount Of capital, and one of
the first steps is considered to be an
investigation of the possibilities by
an engineering firm which will give
the project Il standing in the estima-
tlon OF eastern capitalists. To this
end committees were appointed to
confer with the boards of county
commissioners of Hughes and Sully
counties, to find if they are willing
to assist in providing the means for
securing such a survey by competent
engineers. This will take several
thousand dollars, but nothing can
be done until the project is worked
out as feasible. After that there
would of course remain Il large
amount OF detail work before any
thing in the way OF active construc-
ton would be done.

No Ell Paso industry has increased

tent than that of cattle Ranges in the
United States are not plentiful and the
cattle buyer must look to Mexico to get
cattle for consumption in this country.
Ell Paso is the natural port of entry
and larger import cattle business is
done here than at any other port in the
country. Each year the figures in
crease and during 1910 they took a big
skyward jump.
From figures obtainable to date, 20S,-
IA cattle were imported here and $685.
600 duty was paid on them for the year
1910.
During the II months ending Dec 81,
1909, only los, 465 were imported and
duties paid on them amounted to
$3S6,475.
During the year, two new stockyards,
the Southwestern and the Santa Fa
