WOMAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY :


The arrival in this country not
long ago of Mrs. Adolphus Busch, the
multimillionaire widow Of st. Louis
who had been living in Germany for
several years, brought to light an in
teresting situation which, SO far as
there is any record, has never before
actually existed in history. Although
Mrs. Busch, whose husband was the
famous brewer, Adolphus Busch, and
who is herself the "Anheuser" of the
widely known "Anheuser-Busch," is
really the richest widow in the world,
with more than $6OOOO,O0O in money
and properties, yet her return to the
United States has revealed her, as lit
orally woman without q country"
Technically, Mrs. Busch Is citi-
zen of the United States. But part Of
her vast estate, though. is in Germany.
She owns castles, villas, stocks and
bonds and even part OF q great ammu-
milton plant In Prussia. So, when the

CAPT. DE LAMAR DIES
IN NEW YORK HOSPITAL

New York.-Captain Joseph Ra-

owner. died Sunday in Roosevelt hos
pital of pneumonia which developed
after an operation. He was rs years
old. Captain De Lamar was presi-
dent of the Dome Mines company,
vice president of the International
NIckle company and director In
many other corporations.
The story OF Captain De Lamar's
life reads like a romance. He was
born In Amsterdam, Holland, and
while yet a mere boy boarded Dutch
vessel that piled to the West Indies
and worked as sailor until he was
23. when he became master of ship.
He then came to America and set
tied at Vineyard Haven, Mass. When
the gold fever struck Leadville, Colo,
In 1878, De Lamar went west and
bought several claims. The same
year he took course in chemistry
and metallurgy in Chicago university.
Moving to Idaho he purchased the De
Lamar mines which he sold two years
later to London interests for $1,000
900. He was the sole owner OF the
Utah Mines and Smelling company.
In 1884 Captain De Lamar entered

U. 8. MUST SUPPLY EUROPE
WITH CATTLE AND HOGS

Ogden, Nov. 3O.-Belief that a
lively demand for hogs. cattle and
Sheppard particularly for hogs
will continue is expressed by live
stock men and meat packers. That
belief is substantiated by the reports
from all parts Of America and from
Europe, the latter showing that there
has been such decrease in the num-
Der of domestic animals of all kinds
that the farms, ranches and ranges
Of the United States must be depend
ed upon for more than year to sup
ply this deficiency.
Farmers of Europe will be unable
to build up their herds and iocks dur
ing the coming year to anywhere near
normal conditions. Even with nor
NAL conditions, Europe was importing
large quantities of meat from Amer
lea. This makes 1t apparent that. az
Europe will demand a greater meat
supply, the year 1890 will not see
the time that meats are not in great
demand. Demand for meats means
that there will be a splendid market
for livestock.
With the end in view of assuring
the greatest production of hogs. mea'
packers have agreed upon plan FOL
stabilizing of the price, this plan be
ing approved by the United States
Food Administration. The result II
that the livestock men are assured
continued high prices, while they ar
also assured lower cost Of produc
ton, through the fact that, with foo'
rules applying to grain entirely re
voked, there will be more opportuni
ty to feed and fatten hogs, cattle AM
sheep. Premature marketing of hog
bringing a flood of business tina
could not be handled by packin
: houses might endanger this plan O
buying at a stabilized price, but 1t !

/ bility will assure the livestock raiser
