CATTLE DYING
OF STARVATION

Winnipeg, Manitoba, Oct. 24.-De-
plorable conditions exist at present in
the new union stock yards at ST. Boni-
face, across the river from Winnipeg,
according to reports.
Nearly 1000 cattle are famishing in
the yards and shippers are incensed.
No less tnan sixty-six prominent cat
tie dealers signed an agreement yes ;
terday that they would take their next
shipments through to ST. Paul and give
Winnipeg the go-by. The cattIe are
suffering from thirst, 1T is claimed, as
no water has been given them since
Monday. Dealers are not allowed to
purchase their own food, but have to
accept that which is supplied by the
stock yards. This morning shippers
were busy hauling out dead animals,
and those that were not dead were in
a deplorable condition.
One of the reasons for this Is that
lit is claimed the Canadian Pacific rail
way refuses to handle any shipments
coming into the yards from the Grand
Trunk or the Canadian Northern lines.
Shippers are determin Ell to go through
with other consignmsnts to st. Taaul
where, if the price is lower. it will be
much better because Of rapid facilities
and quicker sales thus avoiding de-
:preciati0n. 5f

B. Altman, the great New York
merchant, who through nearly a
half century Of hard work built
up one of the greatest fortunes In
the United States-some esti-
mates of it have gone as high as
$4,000, 0,000-has left his great art
collection to : the Metropolitan
museum of New York city. 49,.
His will provided that If certain
simple conditions were complied
with the collection Of an estimat-
ed value of from $10,000,00o to
$15,000,000 should be housed with
the Metropolitan Museum Of Art,
to which he left $150.O00 for it's
care and maintenance.
To provide for any possible re-
lection of his terms by the Metro
politan museum, Mr.. Altman di-
rected that in such case his ex-
ecutors should organize an Alt
man museum of art, to which he
left $250,000 in such y contingent
cy to provide for it's housing in
his late residence, 626 Fifth ave
nue. and 1 West Fiftieth street
The director of the museum has
given assurance that the condi-
tions of housing and display
would be fulfilled. ,..-.. -. =.
It Is by far the most valuable
gift the Metropolitan Museum Of
Art has ever received. It's cash
value as a matter of fact is in
calculable. At the time Of Mr..
Altman's death some persons who
had seen the collection valued it
at $15,000,000, but :. it contains
many objects of art upon which it
IS impossible to place a cash VAL

nearest neighbor" Of Mexico to take
such steps as will compose the stu
alton, has not materialized, but many
officials believe the Washington gov
ernment will soon assert itself in a,
| manner that will be tantamount to a
notice to Europe generally that inter-
ference in Mexico by foreign powers
is not desired by this country.
The attitude Of some Of the admin
istration officials, hitherto strong ad-
vocates of a policy of moral suasion,
was decidedly pessimistic today, and
they reluctantly admitted that the
United States government might take
drastic steps
Though officials do not discuss the
British attitude, persons close to the
administration say the policy of Great
Britain has created an embarrassing
situation here with an ever increas-
Ing tension. It Is not likely that Am
bassador Page and the British foreign
office will discuss Mexico until after
the elections of Oct. 26. as Sir Ed
ward Grey was reported as intimating
that he would not bind the British
government to any policy until after
these elections.
There is a confident feeling in offI-
ctal circles that whatever pronounce-
ment President Wilson will make aft
er the elections will be an emphatic
reiteration that the United States will,
stand by its policy of dealing only
with governments founded on law and
order, and there Is likelihood he VIII
go a step further and assert an In
tention OF seeing that constitutional
government is maintained ON this
Hemisphere despite ay foreign infiu-
ence.
