Department of Agriculture Eeviowa the
Condition in Wyoming ,
CANADIAN METHODS ARE STUDIED
Guiding Principle In Security of Title and
UB J of Available Water for Uniting
Benefits to Greatest Number Progress
of Work.
WASHINGTON , March 11. The De
partment of Agriculture has 'issued
as bulletin No. 9G a paper entitled "Ir
rigation Laws of the Northwest Terri
tories of Canada ami Wyoming , " with
discussions by J. S. Dennis , deputy
commissioner of public works of Can
ada ; Fred Bond , state engineer , of
Wyoming , and J. M. Wilson , agent and
expert In the office of irrigation in
vestigations at Cheyenne , Wyo.
The bulletin was prepared under the
direction of Prof. Ellwood Mead , irri
gation expert in charge of the office
of irrigation investigations , who , in
submitting the subject matter of the
publications to the Department of
Agriculture , stated :
"This publication has been pre
pared because of a demand for in
formation regarding the Wyoming law
and the Canadian northwest irrigation
act , both of which were partially de
scribed in bulletins numbered 58 and
GO of the office of experiment stations.
Several of tie ! western states are now
earnestly seeking for some way to put
an end to the litigation and contro
versy and to provide some simpler ,
cheaper and more effective method of
establishing titles to streams than is
possible through a resort to the courts.
The success which has attended the
operation of the two laws therein giv
en makes them worthy of study and
the six principles noted as having
served as u guide in the framing of
the interpretation of the northwest
irrigation act are believed to be so
sound and fundamental as to be
worthy of general adoption. I believe
the publication of the bulletin will t'e
of service In pointing the way to much-
needed reforms in maay of the arid
states. "
The six principles upon which the
Canadian northwest irrigation law is
based are as follows :
"First That the water in all
streams , lakas , ponds , springs or other
sources is * .he property of the crown.
"Second That this water may be
obtained by companies or individuals
for certain described uses upon com
pliance with the provisions of the
law.
law."Third
"Third That the uses for which
water may be so acquired are "domes
tic , " "irrigation" and "other" pur
poses , domestic purposes being limited
to household and sanitary purposes ,
the watering of stock , the operation of
railways and factories by steam , but
not the sale of barter of water for
such purposes.
"Fourth That the company or in
dividual acquiring water for irrigation
or other purposes shall le ; given a clear
and indisputable title to such water.
"Fifth That holders of water rights
shall have- the protection and assist
ance of permanent government officials
in the exercise of such rights.
"Sixth That disputes or complaints
regarding the use or diversion of water
shall be referred to and settlad by the
officials of the government charged
with the administration of the act and
that decisions so given shall be final
and without appeal. "
Deputy Commissioner Dennis in his
review of the operation of the Can
adian northwest irrigation act based
upon these principles , gives briefly but
comprehensivel-v an itnoresting lac-
count of the operation of the law ,
which is in the main successful. He
concludes "that while the Canadian
laws relating to irrigation are in their
infancy or formative stage and possi
bly weak in many respects , -the guid-
principle and aim of these laws is se
curity of title and the use of the avail
able water in such manner as to brinir
the greatest and most lasting benefit
to the greatest number. "
Li HUNG CHANG ILL AGAIN.
Physician Says His Life Ilangs by a
Thread.
PEKIN , March 11. Li Hung Chang
is again seriously ill , and his physician
says his life hangs by a thread.
Prince Ching and Earl Li seem to
think that by spreading rumors of the
court's unwillingness to return to
Pekin , unless this or that thing is
done , they can influence the delibera
tions of the ministers of the powers.
As a matter of fact , according to re
liable reports from Sian Futhe im
perial personages are extremely un
comfortable at Sian Fun -where they
live in the house of the governor ,
which Is only a small structure.
French missionaries who have just re
turned here from Sian Fu tc'leve ths
empress dowager would bring the
court back to Pekin on the first offer
of the allies having as a basis the re
moval of the troops , except the lega
tion guards.
Carter Given a Position.
WASHINGTON , March 9. Former
United States Senator Carter of Mon
tana has 'been appointed by the pres
ident a United States commissioner of
the St Louis exposition. He has ac
cepted the offer. The position pavs
$5,000 a year.
Disastrous Storm in Chicago.
CHICAGO , March 11. One of the
worst wind storms of the season struck
Chicago yesterday and during the two
hours it was at its height damaged
property throughout the city to the
extent of $175,000. Many heavy plate
glass windows were blown in. Tele
graph and telephone companies were
the worst sufferers. Thousands of
poles were blown down and Chicago
was practically isolated from the west
and northwest by telephone and tele
graph all day.
RUSSIA ASSERTS IGNORANCE.
Denies Upon Every Opportunity that It
Has I > e Icns Upon Muncliurln.
WASHINGTON , March 11. The of
ficial correspondence that has passed
between the State department and the
several powers interested in the Chi
nese question discloses the fact that
Russia , suspected as she is by England
and perhaps by some other powers
of planning to seize and hold Man
churia as her own , has upon every oc
casion , when opportunity served to
draw forth a statement of her motives ,
declared emphatically that she had no
such purpose.
On February 1C the United States ad
dressed strong representations to Chi
na through Mr. Conger and Prince
Ching and LI Hung Chang. China was
told that the United States could not
approve any secret negotiations be
tween China and any individual power
looking to the concession of territory
to such power. And , it was further in
sisted , that , to be valid , any such con
cession of territory should be given
only with the assent of all other
powers. To still further emphasize
the warning against the beginning of
a division of China it was significantly
stated that the United States did not
regard the present as an opportune
time for making any concessions of
territory or even for conducting nego
tiations for such concessions.
On March 1 the State department
took steps to acquaint every one of
the powers interested in China with
the instructions it had given Mr. Con
ger. The result was to elicit from-
nearly all of them expressions of ap
proval of the doctrine laid down by
the United States , and foremost among
the powers which accepted it was Rus
sia.
sia.The United States government has
not entered into any secret or open
agreement with Great Britain or with
any individual power , however strong
it may sympathize with the British
desire to insure Manchuria against
seizure. On the contrary , our govern
ment has from the beginning discour
aged such special alliances as to China
and has adopted the practice of in
forming every one of the powers of
the contents of any statement it has
addressed to any one of them.
THIRTY THOUSAND RESIST.
t'rincjo TU.IU lie-
General Vti Ilsiun- and
pare to Oppose Arrest.
SHANGHAI , March 11. Dispatches
from Lau Chau assert that General
Tung Fu Hsiang , with 20,000 men , and
Prince Tuan , with 30,000 men , are at
Ning Hsu prepared to resist arrest.
The China Gazette announces that
Sheiig , the taotai , has memorialized
the throne in favor of the abolition of
the , likin duties and that all the vice
roys and governors support him.
LONDON. March 10. "The Japanese
battleship Hatsuse , just completed in
England , has been ordered to proceed
hither with all possible speed , " says
the Yokohama correspondent of the
Daily Mail. Other orders given to the
Japanese navy indicate the seriousness
with which the Japanese government
views the situation in the far cast.
Well informed Japanese regard Rus
sia's action in Manchuria as a gigantic
bluff , inspired by the notion that Eng
land's hands are tied in South Africa ,
but as Germany is only half-hearted
in the maintenance of Chinese integ
rity a coalition with Japan is improb
able and Japan is too much embar
rassed in her finances to clo more than
protest and endeavor to secure com
pensating advantages in Korea.
" ' the Manchurian
"China's signature of -
ian convention is practically assured , "
says the St. Petersburg correspondent
of the Daily Mail , "because Russia last
August sent to the empress dowager
7,500 pounds of bar silver. "
HARRISON SLIGHTLY WORSE ,

INDIANAPOLIS , March 11. The
condition of former President Harri
son is serious. Dr. Jameson stated to
day that the upper part of General
Harrison's left lung was inflamed.
There is some danger of the conges
tion extending to the rest of the lung
and to the right lung. Until 3 o'clock
this afternoon General Harrison was
resting easily , -hut at that time he be
came slightly worse and Dr. Jameson
was called. He said that he was cer
tain nothing was to be apprehended
for the next forty-eight hours , but the
age of the patient renders all calcula
tions uncertain. At S o'clock this even

some pain , but was resting compara
tively easy.
DEVVET IS SAf E ONCE MORE.
Escapes Into His Oivn Country and Can

LONDON , March 11. The Times
publishes the following dispatch from
Aasvogelkop , March 9 : :
"General DeWet has escaped north
ward by a forced march with 400 men.
His objective is believed to be the vi
cinity of Kroonstadt.
"Four other Boer leaders arc still in
the southwestern part of Oranvc River
colony.
"Now that General Dewet is back in
his own country it will be almost im
possible to operate against him. Just
as soon as he is pressed his commando
dissolves , to meet again a few days
later.
"Only a few bands of Boers arc now
left in Cape Colony. "
AMERICANS MOST MERCIFUL.
All Other Foreigners in Pekin Have Done
Some Executing.
LONDON , March 11. "It is not
likely that the powers will oppose the
schemes of Russia , " says the Pekin
correspondent of the Morning Post ,
wiring Saturday. "The situation is
regarder as very gloomy. Even the
Chinese plenipotentiaries declare open
ly that intervention by the powers is
not desirable unless they are prepared
to back up their protests.
It Proved Successful Beyond All Expec
tations.
BIO AND LITTLE HARES IN PLENTY
The Hare Proposition an Viewed by a
Well Informed Farmer A Murderer
Gets Nineteen Y mr * Imprisonment
Miscellaneous Nebraska Matters.
OMAHA , March 11. The Belgian
hare show in this city was so well
attended and created such interest that
it was prolonged beyond the date first
set.
Just how many hares were on ex
hibition is not known , though not on
account of them running around so
fast , for all were in cages or in the
rabbitry language , in hutches. But
there were hundreds of them and then
more hundreds , not only from Ne
braska , but from all adjoining and
several far-away states.
There were big hares and little
hares , brown , golden , red , black and
spotted hares , and a number of Inter
esting hare families. As a rule they
are gentle , but they have teeth like
knife blades and some of the boy
hares are great fighters of other boy
hares.
A number of farmers were in attend
ance and bought quite heavily. One of
these farmers in discussing the hare
proposition said :
"I am of the opinion that the hare
is going to be raised extensively by
the farmers in the near future. They
will not breed for points , but instead ,
will pay most of their attention to
meat stock. I have investigated this
question thoroughly and have reached
the conclusion that on a farm 1 can
raise a hare to maturity for not to
exceed 10 cents. Such a hare will sell
for at least 12 & pounds on foot , thus
yielding a net profit of $1.15 on each
animal. If I care to do my own kill
ing , I can sell the meat at 18 to 20
cents per pound and as a hare of ten
pounds will dress seven pounds , I have
from $1.26 to $1.40 to say nothing of
the pelt , which is worth something
like 50 cents. You may raise chickens ,
hogs , sheep or cattle , but you can't get
any such returns for your money.
"Just now the small hare , weighing
eight pounds is more in demand , but
inside of a year , when the hare gets
down to a strictly meat proposition , as
it must , the big fellows will be the
high priced ones and will be the ones
sought after. "
Of the hares now at the show , Pro
fessor Crabtree , who is recognized as
an authority , says that they are as fine
a lot as he ever saw on exhibition.
Along this line he said :
"I realize that Nebraska Avas one of
the last states to take im the Belgian
hare industry , but it has made some
rapid strides. In this show the animals
average as good as those in Colorado ,
Kansas and California , where breeders
have been in the business for years.
There must be something about the
Nebraska climate that does it , for it
is not all in the breeding and care
that the animals are given. "
Sidney Pleased with the Honor.
SIDNEY , Neb. , March 11. News was
received here that President McKinley
had sent to the senate the name of
James L. Mclntosh for receiver of the

anything about the money after ha
left Indianola. He was with a car of
goods on the way to Culbertson.

pointment of J. L. Mclntosh , Jr. , to be

Interest Felt at IJtatrice.
BEATRICE. Neb. , March 11. The
supreme court ruling in the case of
Frank L. Dinsmore , convicted of mur
dering his wife in Dawson county , is
of more than passing interest to the
people of this city. He formerly lived
here and for years was a clerk at the
Randall hotel and is a brother of the
former superintendent of city schools.
He was well known at Barneston , this j
county , having been in charge of a j
grain elevator at that point prior to
his removal west. He was married in
this city , his wife being a Miss Cal-
vert of West Beatrice.
THE LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Latest Quotation * from South Onc hB
ami Kniinun City.
SOUTH OMAHA.
Cattle There wan another llRht run of
cattle and the demand being qulto lib
eral the market ruled active and teady
to strong' all around. Beef steers of good
quality were picked up early this morn-
liijj at pricea that looked strong as com
pared with yesterday. Where the cattle
just suited thera they paid perhaps a
little higher prices , but as a rule the sit
uation could best be described by calling
It a strong , active market. As high as
$3.40 was paid for a bunch of steers ,
which Is the highest price paid In somu
time. The cow market was also uctlvo
and fully steady with yesterday. Med
ium weight heifers or cows of good qual
ity were ready sellers and In some cases
brought a little stronger prices today.
The ordinary run of cow stuff sold fully
steady , particularly early In the morn-
Ing. Bulls were in good demand If they
were of good quality and prices could
safely be quoted steady to stronger.
Calves also brought good firm prices and
the same Is true of stags. Stockers and
feeders did not show much of any
change. There were only a few on sale
and anything at all desirable met with
ready sale at fully yesterday's quota
tions.
Hogs There was not a heavy run of
hogs today and the market started out
about ll'/ie higher than vesterday morn
ing , 'me first hogs sold largely at $3.37'
i'3.40 , and some prime heavyweights sold
as high as J3.-13. or f c better than yester
day's top. The hogs began moving to
ward the scales quite rapidly , but before
there was time to sell more than half
the receipts the market weakened and
packers were only offering ? 3.Ki : ! ? ? 3.Ci. :
The last end of the mantel was very
slow , as the best hogs were sold llrst
and packers were not particularly anx
ious for what was left.
Sheep There was just a fair run of
sheep here today and the demand was In
good shape , so that the market ruled
active and steady to strong all around.

MEANS EARLY ADJOLRNMENT.
Senators Not to Reorganize Committees
at Extra Session.
WASHINGTON , March 9. The re
publican senatorial conference decided
to not reorganize the committees at
this session. This means an early ad
journment of the senate probably to
day.
day.The
The conference was without excit
ing incident , although many speeches
were made. Two resolutions were con
sidered and both wers voted down.
The first was offered by Senator Ma
son and provided for the immediate
reorganization of the committees.
Senator Foraker presented the second
end and it provided for the appoint
ment of a committee to consider the
basis of a reorganization , to report
at the beginning of the session of
congress commencing next December.
rlhe majority against both propositions
was large. The effect of these two
negative votes is to defer all action on
reorganization until the December ses
sion.
sion.The
The speeches against organization
at this time were all based upon the
plea that it meant indefinite prolonga
tion of the present special session. To
this argument the reply was mads
that it was better to take the time for
this ncessary work now , when only
one house is in sssion and no legis
lation is pending.
The new senators said very little ,
generally taking the position that they
were willing to be guided by the ex
perienced senate leaders.

Opposition to J-
WASHINGTON , March 8. There is
growing opposition to the appoint
ment of Colonel Sanger as assistant
secretary 01 war. Senator Platt of
New York called on both the president
and Secretary Root in relation to the
matter. Secretary Root said it was his
personal appointment and should
therefore not be interfered with.
Whether Senators Platt and Depew

ter is problematical.

would burn his property if he did not
leave town or pay it $2SO. Mr. Gallup
