EVIL IN CROSS BREEDING
Weak and Degenerate Stock Has Been Evolved in the Population of
 Dominican Republic.

The bulk of the Dominican popula- tion are mulattoes, and the Spanish mulatto has proven in the main 9 weak and degenerate stock. The un- desirable results of the Spanish-negro cross have been evident from the ear Hest times. The severest judgment upon the Spanish mulatto that 1 have ever read is contained in the official report of governor of French Santo Domingo written before the close of the seventeenth century, and but few writers on tropical America dissent from the unfavorable point of view, writes T. Lothrop Stoddard in the American Review of Reviews.
 Certainly the mulatto population of the Dominican republic seems to bear out these pessimistic judgments. They are patently a feeble folk and lack ambition and endurance, both physi- cal and mental. Good physical types are rarely found outside the pure white or pure black elements. Tuber- culosis and leprosy are rampant, while other diseases and alcoholism contin- ually enfeeble the stock. The degen- eracy of the Dominican population cannot be laid to the climate, which is unusually healthful, especially the in terior uplands, and foreign whites thrive with elementary precautions re garding diet, sanitation and clean liv- ing.
 Santo Domingo's only hope seems to lie in prolonged tutelage to some for eign power which will assure such conditions of order, and good govern ment as will permit the development of the country's splendid natural re- sources and implant the fabric of civ ilization. 1t may be that in course of time the mass of the population can be raised to that plane of political ef- fciency now reached only by the small elite of the towns, but it is certain that the only way by which this will ever come to pass is a long period of peace and prosperity under foreign guidance and direction.

As to Breathino.

To breathe wrongly is to impover- ish the blood, and through it to reduce the whole body to state of suscepti- bility, which opens way for all kinds of disease. Comparatively few per sons take in as much air as they ought; hence parts of the lungs are apt to become weakened through dis use. The first care should be to breathe the best air possible; the next to obtain the proper amount in the right way.

American Red Cross
 Society Appeals For Aid

The following letter written tc
 Gov. Hunt by the American Red
 Cross society, has been sent to
 THE NEWS:
 During the war with Spain
 thousands of dollars were sent
 out by European Red Cross So- cieties to the American Red Cross to aid in the care of our sick and wounded soldiers. Now, in the hour of their su- preme need the American Red Cross, both for the sake of humanity and to express our gratitude for their aid to us in the time of trouble and distress. has decided to charter a ship and sent to each country involved with doctors, nurses thd hospital supplies. This ship, sailing under the Red Cross Flag, will be under the protection of the treaties of Geneva and the Hague and can enter any harbor for the discharge of it's beneficent duty. In no other way can this trained personnel so greatly needed reach the differ ent countries. Protection is pro- vided also for the personnel of Red Cross Societies of neutral states that render aid.
 By the treaty of Geneva the American Red Cross appeals most earnestly to all of our peo- pie, to the governors of States as President of The Red Cross State Boards, to the Red Cross Chapters. to the Mayor of Cities, the Chambers of Commerce, to Boards of Trade, and to all associations and individuals for contributions to carry on this work. Contributions may be designated by the donors, if they so desire. for the aid of any special country and will be used for the country designated, but assistance will be given to all in the true spirit of the Red Cross represented by it's motto. 'Neu- trality, humanity
 Grieved as we may be over this terrible war the agonizing cry of suffering men cannot appeal to us in vain. The American Red Cross asks for prompt and generous response. Contributions may be sent to the American Red Cross, Washing ton, or to State and local treasurers of the Red Cross.

Kansas City Cattle
 and Sheep Prices

Kansas City Stock Yards, August 10, 1914. Cattle closed last week at the highest point of the year, having regained all the losses of the first of the week. and more. stock cattle and feed CTS included. All the markets are lightly supplied, and real beef scarcity is being uncovered. New high prices were realized on various grades af cattle to- day. Prime Missouri fed brand ed westerns selling at the top, $1O.25. and other sales at $1O. 10 and $10.15. Wintered cattle from Greenwood county, Kan sas. sold up to $9 40, highest this season, and cattle wintered on wheat fields in western Kan sas, and grazed in the foot hills sold at $500 to $8.65. The top steers today weighed 1850 lbs average, and steers with weight are the best sellers, as packers want beef. In the quarantine division 82 car loads arrived, and sold actively at strong to 10 higher prices. Top was S7 90, and bulk ot the cattle were middle class Oklahoma grassers, at $6.15 to SIPS. Shipments of stockers and feeders to the last week were $500 head as compared with 33, GOO head same week last August, when drouth cattle were running. The impression exists among buyers that present prices are as low as they will be this year. stock steers largely at S6.75 to S7.75, feeders $7.0O to $7.75, a few choice stockers and some high grade fleshy feeders at $8 and little more.
 Sheep and lambs are 25 high CT today, following good gains last week after Tuesday. The supply today is 1900 head. all na- lives. Fair native lambs brought S8. 40 today, a very good price, in view of the fact that top on natives in Chicago today is $8. 25. Good western lambs would bring S8.50 or more. Idaho wethers sold here Friday at $5.75. year. ings at 6.25, fat ewes $5. 35, feeding ewes $5.75, and these prices could be duplicated today. Feeding lambs are scarce, and ire worth around $6.75. choice westerns possibly $7.

Sheep Men Interested
 Commissions Decision

Early Tn 1913, on the com
 plaint of the American National
 Live Stock Association and the
 Arizona Corporation Commis-
 sion, the Interstate Commerce
 Commission handed down an
 opinion to the effect that the
 rate on sheep and cattle from
 Arizona to California points
 should be reduced about 25 per
 cent and that sheep in double
 deck cars should take a rate the
 same as cattle in single deck cars,
 and that sheep in single deck
 cars should have a rate 30 per
 cent lower than the rate on sheep in double deck cars. The
 railroads complied with the opln- ion of the commission and es-
 tablished the rate on cattle. but refused to give sheep in double deck cars the same rate as was given to cattle. This meant that the sheep rate renamed about 25 per cent higher than the cattle rate. The original com plaints then appealed to the commission for an order com polling the railroads to establish the same rate on sheep in double deck cars as had been provided for cattle. The National wool Growers Association interYened in the complaint for it was of vital importance that the rail roads of the southwest be not allowed to establish the principle that double deck rate should be higher than a cattle rate. The Interstate Commerce Commis- sion set the case for hearing at Los Angeles, California, June 22nd. The case of the stockmen was presented by T. w. Tomlin- son, secretary of the American National Live Stock Association, and was ably presented. Those testifying in behalf of the sheep men were MT. Hugh Campbell, president of the Arizona Wool Growers, Association; MT. M. I. Powers, secretary of that asso- citation, and the secretary of the Notional Wool Growers Asso- as well as certain pack CTS who were interested in mak- ing shipments in the territory involved.
 We have no intimation of what action the commission will take in this matter, but we be- lieve that it was fully shown at the hearing that there is not any reason why a double deck sheep rate soould be higher than a cattle rate. In fact several very valid reasons were present. ed why the sheep rate might well be lower. This case is of great importance to the wool growers of Arizona as 1t will mean a reduction of about $25 a lar on sheep moving west. The. National Wool Grower.

FOR USE OF ENJOYS
Bryan Tells Congressman War
Has Increased Cost of DipIo-
matte Service.

Secretary of State Bryan appeared be-
fore the House Appropriations Commit
tee at an executive session today to
request an emergency appropriation Of
81 900 for the extraordinary expenses
of American embassies and diplomatic
agencies abroad.
The Secretary explained that this
money was needed because the United
States in many foreign capitals has
accepted the care OF the INFER nsts of
the nations involved in war. which have
withdrawn their own diplomatic agents
from the war centers. There Is no res
ular appropriation which can be applied
to this unforeseen work. secretary Bryan
said, and the diplomatic agents Of this
country abroad are running short of
funds, their embarrassment being in
creased by the temporary suspension
Of banking facilities and the impossi-
bility of making transfer of funds in
the regular way.
Secretary Bryan told the House Com
mittee that the sl.0OooO0 appropriation
will not be an expense to the Govern
ment of the United States, but rather
an advance of money to meet drafts
ana outstanding expenses until adjust
ments are made possible. The foreign
ne tons for whose interests the United
States is now caring, eventually VIII
reimburse this country for the expenses
II may undergo in their behalf
