CATTLE STARVING
Mercer Gets an Appeal From
Eastern Colorado.
Conditions in Southwest Kansas
Also Are Serious.

Livestock and Sanitary Commissioner
Joe Mercer has received a request
from the livestock authorities of Col
orado to allow the starving cattle from
that state to cross the quarantine line
into Kansas In order that they may
be fed. This permission has been
granted as regards only cattle that
have not been exposed, and these must
be dipped as soon as the weather will
permit. The Colorado authorities
must bear that expense. Before rails
ing this quarantine the Kansas Live
stock Commissioner was assured by
federal inspector that he was taking
mango.
Conditions in Colorado must be de-
plorable. according to the dispatches
Mr.. Mercer received from the Colo
RADIO authorities. It is nearly as bad
in western Kansas. The range cattle
are starving to death A deep snow
covers the ground and there is little
feed and no hay at all. They must be
shipped to feed lots farther east or
be admitted into Kansas, but only cat
tie from exposed districts that can
pass rigid inspection.
Mr. Mercer has word from Lot
Ravenscraft in southwest Kansas to
the effect that the cattle are suffering
there from the cold and many will
freeze. Feed is scarce and something
must be done to save many herds.
From northeast Kansas comes word
are scarce up there From Hamilton
county the report is that the cattle are
suffering from a most severe storm
and that many will die.

St. Louis Is Facing a Serious Shortage

St. Louis. Jan. e.-Twenty laundries
have ceased operations because OF a
shortage of water supply which

The shortage is caused by the clog

Of rocks. Ice in the Mississippi river
has formed a solid wall against the

Richard T. Crane, Millionaire Foe to
Universities, Who Died in Chicago.

Mr.. Cranes illness had not been con-
sidered serious. A casual examination
by physicians led to the belief that he
had suffered from an attack of heart
disease. He had just finished a light
dinner.
Nearly so years old, Mr.. Crane, who
had been without the advantages
disadvantages, as he characterized it
of training in universities, and had
worked his way to the head of a large
iron working company, contended all
his life that the college and the uni
versity was a useless fixture and that
the money devoted to higher education
could be spent more prOhtably in ex-
tending industrial education and aid
ing persons who had met with adverse
fate.
His death occurred within a few
hours of the issue of his last attack
on schools-an attack called forth by
reputation of his theory by college
professors and presidents. In it he re-
newed his assertion that college grad
yates were i'll equipped for earning a
living and that the majority of them
skilled mechanic Culture and not
livelihood or the means of earning it
was the only purpose he could dis
cover for the existence of colleges.
Of his two sons, the elder, Charles
Richard Crane, who was appointed
minister to China in 1903. but who re-
signed before leaving America, like his
father, was not a college graduate. He
worked in his fathers mills and
learned technical engineering in the
drawing rooms and at the lathes.
Richard r. Crane, jr., was a product
of the Chicago manual training school
and the Sheffield scientific school,
Yale university. The success of this
son, who also became a department
head in the company, Mr.. Crane al
WIS contended, was in spite of and
not as a result of his higher schooling.
Richard Teller Crane was born in Pat
erson n. J. in 1882. Martin Ryerson,
of Chicago, gave him his start when he
set aside piece of land on which Crane
could start a brass foundry. From that
grew the Crane company.
Mr.. Cranes philanthropy was devoted
chiefly to his efforts to have school
boards supplant high schools with manuel
training schools, ito give the student
knowledge of how to use his head and
hand in conjunction with each other, and
to give him a means of doing that thing
for which all education Is intended-earll
living for himself and for the family
he will or should have
To point the way, he founded Crane
Technical institute, school designed to
carry out his idea, and supported it gen
erOlISiV.

New York. Jan. 9.-John J. Nc
Namara of San Francisco, known to
detectives of half a dozen cities as
Australian Mack" has been arrested
here by central office and private de-
tective on a warrant charging him
with the larceny of $4,000 from the
Bank of Montreal of New Westmins-

Namara, whose husband was arrested
in New York on a charge of having
robbed the bank of New Westminster,
B. c., a branch of the Bank of Mon

denied today that she had received any
such large sum as $1,000 from her hus-
band.
It was declared that through letter
containing $1,000 sent to his wife who
whereabouts was learned, and his ar
rest in New York followed.
I last heard from my husband in

when he wrote to me from Vancouver,

tra1la twenty years ago. He then was
q contractor. When we came to San
francisco. he told me that his bust
mes took him among a rough class of
people. We never discussed his bust
ness.
Il do not believe Mr. Mcnamara is
IN New York, neither do I believe he
ever robbed a bank.
IF it is true, it will be a hard blow
to our girls" she continued, speaking
of their two daughters, one of whom
was recently married.
1t is reported from Vancouver, B.
G., that John Bozyk, an Austrian, ar
rested November 4, with SIS, 900 of the
money stolen from the bank of New
Westminster in his possession is still
IN jail at Westminster, awaiting trial
on a charge of having stolen property
in his possession. Bozyk, who is
densely ignorant, denied any compli-
city in the robbery of the bank and
said that he had found the bank notes.
William Barrett, with whom McNa-
mara is said to have been formerly as
ISOLATED, and who served a term in the
San Quentin prison for robbing the
First National bank of San Francisco
in 1904, is said to be in business in
the Pacific northwest. He started in
business there directly after his re-
lease from San Quentin last June.
Barrett was rearrested in Portland in
1905 on a charge of grand larceny.
He was discharged, but was turned
over to Baltimore, Nd, authorities.
He was sentenced for picking pockets
in Baltimore. It was said then he was
wanted by the authorities at Mil

where Barrett is at present, but they
