ALBANY , Juno 1. l a ; m. The
half-broeda tried in Tain to nt Cor
nell , to say whether ho ut > uld accept
or"decline the election , but he openly
asserted that ho would not accept > and
therefore .instructed hin followers to
scatter their votes until sucli a time
that he could bo convinced that Conk
ling was absolutely defeated. Up to
midnight < /ornell" gave no sign- that
the use of liis name was authorised.-
The half-b'repds say "silence means
consent , " and it was resolved at the
conference last night to consolidate on
him at the first opportunity , cither.to-
day or Thursday. .Tho half-breeds
have decided to bulldoze Cornell into
accepting if possible.
Speaker Sharpe has announced that
all votes cast for him should bo turnec
to Coiikling and Platt.
The stalwarts point to the fealty of
SliRrpo and compare it with the posi
tion of * Cornell , asserting Hhat the
hitter is secretly working in his own
behalf and using , the power of his
present position to insure his election
as senator. Cornell's position is
strong and ho has in his possession
nearly two hundred bills in which the
members are personally interested ,
and awaiting his signature or veto.
TJio "Jialf-brecfls" also urge that Cor
nell feels his key to tl position' arid

KO CAUCUS.
ALBANY , Juno L There was no
caucus of tlfe stalwarts last evening ,
nor of the. half-breeds. The latter
hold a conference and rcnowcd their
pledges of faith. It was decided to
continue voting "scattering" for the
few ballots in joint convention to-day ,
Audit the test showed strength ciwugh
to.be relied upon , they would confer
again. The fact ia the half-breeds
arc entirely at Boa. The first choice
candidates arbf Cornell and Dopow ,
but up to this time , Cornell postivoly
refuses to bo a candidate , and remains
openly true to the stalwarts. There
was a sharp contest in the half-breeds
conference Ihst night to force the nam
ing of candidates , out was opposed by
A"niajdrity orthe" faction.

minp explosion , watching a colored
brigade who were making a charge.
While thus exposed , and awaiting
orders , a ball stf tick tlio general im
mediately Under the right jaw , In pre
cisely the same spot ho had been
wounded at the battle of Antietam , in
September , 18G2. The wound was
considered very dangerous , and for a
long time the life of the colonel was
despaired of. Surgeons probed f or the
ball , but were unable to find it , and con
cluded it had descended to the .region
of the shoulder. The commander was
sent homo in duo-time , but could find
no relief. Returning to the front , a
second operation was performed , but
.with as little success as , attended the
first. Since that tune the ball has
often caused its victim considerable
annoyance. It . was known to be
somewhore.in his anatomy , but its lo
cation could not bo found. During
the past few-yeara the general

heavy weight was pressing against his
throat. While attending to a cus
tomer in his paper storo.yesterday he
was compelled to cough , when he dis
covered that he had coughed into liis
hand the rusty bullet , covered with
saliva. The bullet , which is cast
iron , weighs 273 grains troy , and is of
the class known as canister shot. It
has a projecting nnd ragged protuber

from which they started in the fall.
This business occupies seyeral.months :
is tllta nfeenSloii b ! & llllafious old
Sid . reminding one of th ; timcS uf
the old fur companies , which , fifty or
sixty years ago , held a kind of feudal
sway ever these then rude rcgioa * .
Then thcro was the annual gathering
of tractors , hunters and trappers at
their , rendczVou tb truffle" and Srntrtgo
; t plan of operation : Instead of the
buffald and oeavef , which werb killed
for their Hdts niainly , tHnip cattle
n6w take their plafio arifl are fattened
for their flesh. The sport and excite
ment are no less exhilarating and the
same , boundlesi , 'grassy plains and
pure mduntain streams , which greeted
the old trappers , afford 'pleasant ' ad
ventures and wild excitement to cow
boys. This" spring the. present season
opened early find grass was good on
the first of April. Mr. Jackson's com
pany commenced making their round
up On the i2tllbf April and will not
get throngh before' the middle of
August. Their cattle
WEUE BADLV DRIFTED
The past winter , 'but are fpun.d in
0od con/litioii. They got through
the winter a great deal better than
was. generally supposed. The percen
tage of losa so far ad Wydhiins terri
tory is concerned was less than any
for the past five years' . The loss in
Colorado wfli hiflre1 severe than fur =
Iher north. .The slock is in belter
condition at this , time of year than has
been the case for several years and the
prospect bf the stockmen looks better
than it has in preceding years. The
prospect of better prices for sheen
is especially encouraging and
flattering. The price of
of young stock , will average this year
from SI. 50 to $3 a head over and
above what it has been for the hist
three or four years. There Bcem to
be more buyers than sellers than there
was hist year. Chicago appears to be
capturing the trade. There were
shipped to Chicago last year from
west of Omaha about 140,000 beeves ,
and Mr. Jackson says he don't see
why St. Louis , can't divide the inter
ests with Chicago in this trade. In
his opinion , this country is going to
feed the world with beef within the
next ten or fifteen years.

a rccent'trip-u1 the Republican ,
valley I frequently heanTiF rcri r e < i
by traveling men that the crops looked'
better than In "any other portion of the"
country. Tlio rye Js from forty to
forty--fivo 'inches hjgli , to-A headed
out. Most' of 'tho spring grain is ten
inches high and growing very fast.
Some cqrnjis , up , but only a part of
the corn ground has" been planted yd.
Th'er6 ha § been plenty of mm and the
ground is in excellent condition" .

drcds of emigrant vagons are coming
irom the east. Business has been
very dull during a fewmonths past ,
but is improving notf.
Slock"g'rOrt'c'iy h'a'f o" feCn ntdro sud-
ce'ssful in the valley than gram rais
ers. Many of the ( immigrants are
bringing herds of cattle and flocks of
sheep , and thd Republican valley is
not likely to call fo'r aid agSirf. There
are 'fifty thousand sheep in Furnas ,
Harlan , Franklin and Webster coun
ties alone , and this will bo increased
sixty per cent during this-year.
A few. brick buildings are being
built. The larges't b'rict structure in
process of construction is the new
hotel at Cambridge. The building
will be 36 by 40 feet , with three
floors : It is the property of C. C.
Messer , one1 of the'niost popular hotel
men in the 'west. '
This spring the . ice-break carried
away all the bridges on the river ex
cept the one at Riverton. Many of
these will be rebuilt.
A few years ago this was considered
exclusively St. Joe territory for mer

'The Iowa Dairy.
Uawkcye.
With the opening of the present
season an immense impetus has been
giveri this branch of 'agriculture , not
altogether unexpected by those who
have been watching its rise and pro
gress during .Vshort period of 'years
past , and yet surpassing so'mewliat the
most * ardent expectations' . . tTho almost
unequalled good 'pasturage , beginning
with the. , early days of May
and . 'continuing until' tHe pres
ent , has been the means of
vastly . increasing the product of
the dairy above that of any cor
responding period ot time and lias had
a tendency to considerably depress
the price of butter throughout the
entire breadth of the country. The
product of the various factories bein
inainly sent aWay in bulk has' resulted
advantageously to the family dairy on
a small scale , in keeping the local mar
kets from becoming over stocked , and
enabling , families who manufacture
but a few pounds of butter weekly to
dispose of the samtueadily.at aJair.
} > ri6o , "just alike -producer and con-
ailmen
It is to.be hoped that ere .long the
dairy business will ao adjust jtSblf that'
butter will not be" manufactured1
nearly exclusively as has been the case
for about two years past , but.that dai
rymen will soon , find it to their inter
est to return to the manufacture of a
goodj honedt full cream cheese1 , i
taminated with that mlscfablo fraud
known as "anti-huff , " one , of the great
est misnomers in the English tongue ,
and the presence of which in cheese . ,
will set well disposed persons in the
most violent "huff" imaginable. It is
a 'notorious ' fact that through
thn robbery , , of the cream ,
and the introduction , of this'
fraud , but a very modicum of the real
old-timo cheese has been , placed on
the' market for two years past , wliile
the 'shelves of the factory and the
counters -tho.grocer have been disgraced - ,
graced by the presence of a substance
having the iorm and outward appear
ance of ohceso , wliile in reality it was
but n delusion.and scarcely nioro grat
