Colonrl K. P. Savaijo of the commission
firm of Slater , Savage & IColly , an intelligent
nnd observing man , has lately returned after
a business trip through the grazing and agri
cultural sections now being opened up by the
extension of the I ! . & M. railroad.
The llfty years of practical bxporlonco and
thorough familiarity of Colonel Savage with
agricultural regions of the Mis
souri valley , his personal interest , his
keen observation and knowledge of the people
ple and the business , give as much weight to
his words as to those of any man iu this see
tlon.
tlon.Colonel
Colonel Savage is as enthuslaUlc over the
now empire xvhlch will bo opanod to Omaha
ns a man can be , and sees for Omaha the one
opportunity by nu united and judicious effort
on the part of the Gate City to secure the
major part of a trade ot a people who will
have oO.OOO head of cattle , uri.OJO or iM.OOJ
hea-1 of sheep and at least , " , ( H)0 ) head of horses
toshlp this year , and m.iny tnow each suc
ceeding year to ship to marltut , and in return
will take all their necossarlo-i of llfo from
Omaha merchants and manufacturers.
On this subject yesterday Co.'onol ' Savage )
said :
" 1 have only to speak of the country being
opened up to Omaha by the extension of the
li. & M. My trip was a long , Interesting
nnd profitable onu. Leaving Grand Island , I
went through the northwest part of tin )
state , right through the drouth-stricken dis
trict of last year , where much charity was
necessary one year ago to ovoid suffering and
this year I tlnd the finest crops of small
grain that I have over scon ( luring the last
half a century cither In Illinois , Iowa or Ne
braska , and bettor oven than the crops are
this year In the eastern part of this state.
Trils. too , is right In the "sand
hills'1 regions whcro many believed
that good crops could not bo
raised. Yet in this supposed barren country ,
with a stand of grain that was beautiful to
look upon , I personally know of largo lields ,
only fair samples of the whole section , where
oats threshed over one hundred bushels to
the acre , and wncat yielded from one Held
thirty-llvo bushels , another thirty-six bush
els and another thirty-nine bushels to the aero
nnd barley forty-eight bushels. Tno reason
for those extraordinarily peed crops this
year in that section wan the sandy soil nnd
the wet season which made everything Just
right for good crops. With 'JO per cent moro
acreage than over before throughout
this whole section. nnd n great
stretch of unrivalled crops from the extreme -
tremo northwest part of Nohrasita
'
down into Kansas , tho'most remarkable crops
I ever saw , and 1 have been hero slnco ISli ! . ,
one in a measure can realize what n crop is
being harvested this year in this section.
"With three weeks moro of good corn
weather , such as wo have been having , the
prowth will bo llnished so as to assure u
larger crop than over before. "
"Hut the grazing and agricultural sections
that Omaha is most interested in at present ,
or at least should bo most interested in and
ihould innlio the greatest effort to court Its
business , Is that /front / country now being
llrst opened to Omaha by the li. it Al. , con
sisting of the north half of Wyoming , the
south half of Montana and the southwest
one-fourth of South Dakota. This great area ,
a vast enterprise In itself , is promising
beyond words to express.
"Tho same promising aspect mot our view
till wo got to and across the Powder river in
Wyoming. Some ten miles beyond the
I'owder river a country full of
mountain streams , flowing from both
litlcs of the Big Horn mountains , we
entered nn agricultural nnd Brazing country
oiual | to anything I have over seen. The
great basins , with the beautiful vulloys , one-
half irrigated , wcro well farmed and loaded
down with heavier and bettor crops than I
over saw before this in any of thu prnlrlo
stntcs. Oats threshed sixty toelghty bushels
" nnd weighed forty-livepounas.thirteon pounds
"S pur bushel heavier than legal weight ,
wheat threshed twenty-five to forty
bushels. Settlers Informed mo that
grass and hay were bettor than since
1881. I saw great Holds of timothy hay , so
large uiiu thlcic that I Instinctively throw my
hat out iu the Held and it lay on
top of the timothy without bending
It so as not to bo soon. I then waded In after
the hat , " and as the colonel's ( ! -feet-nnd-2-Inch
form straightened up , ho crossed his breast
lust below the shoulders and said : "The
lops cnmo up to hero and about halt way
down was a mat of clover m thick as it could
grow. The yield of hay will do twice that
which I have ever scon in Nebratkn.
'In my travels I rode 8:10 : mile * through
this section and I found from sevouty-tivo to
'
one hundred miles on thu east , so'uth and
west of the National park , the valleys of the
Hie Horn mountains and the Tongue river ,
til of which will bo tributary
to the extensions of the D. & Al. ana
llio Fiomont , Klhhoru & Missouri Valley
mil roil d , the same promising section t have
heretofore described. Iluffalo and Sheridan ,
Wyo , , are the central places nt present.
Both of thorn are nearly one hundred miles
from the present railroad termini. This sec
tion will soon bo tapped and It Is of the
greatest Importance to Omaha's business
Interests to otter every inducement for the
trnP.lo of those people. Whllo the people
hnvo been mostly tr.idlug with Chicago ,
going nearly onu hundred miles to reach the
Northern 1'acitlc , they speak In the very
warmest wurds of Omaha. H'inchmon , who
lay In stocks enough to supply
a small store , and merchants all scum
favorably disposed to Omaha. The people
are well advanced nud much of the cxtrume
northwest country ls moro thlcldy settled
than I expected to tlnd It or than anyone out-
Bide of that section believes. Near HutTalo I
saw on the ranch ol M. T. Redman
the lin os I lot of drauirht hordes
I over saw In the west , oven
at agricultural and stock fairs. Whllo the
-big cattlemen are removing from the suction
as settlers take up the valley lands along the
streams , the amount of stock Is rapidly In
creasing , mnny small herds taking the place
of the largo onus removed.
"Tho whole of this country Is n magnifi
cent section , nnd Its resources uro simply
wonderful. As ngriculturul and grazing
lands most of It cannot bo excelled , while it
Is full of universal wealth , none
of which Is halt developed. No.irly
the whole of the country is underlaid
with coal strata from six inches to sixteen
feut. 1 wns In a coal drift , cropping out on n
crock bank sixteen feet clear tram top to bottom
tom of the vein and not u truce of sulphur or
Blnto. At present only two nmios aru worked ,
ns nearly every person has his own
coal mid cnu mine It without
cost except the labor. A singular thing in
this elegant coal is globes of pure gum , line
spruce gum , used by many to chew. All
kinds of minerals , sandstone , granite and
limestone nm abundant and easily mined.
"This section will ship -w.OOO to f > 0,00 ( ) cnt-
tlo this year. The condition of the cattle Is
very good but If they uro Kept as they
should bo till October , thotrcondltlou will bo
materially Improved and I think It will pay on
account of boiler prices that will bo received
on account of the improved condition. Twen
ty-live or thirty thousand sheep and fi.OOO
hom\s will bo shipped this year from the
new territory , for the llrst tltna being opened
to Omaha markets , Kach year will add
lurgu numbers to the stock shipments , and
Omaha should get the bcncllt of most of it ,
"What I want to impress on the attention
of Omaha is the present business to bo had
with this sccllou nnd the untold posslbliiilca
of thu futuro. Wo should make a united and
V svstenmtle. effort to Invlto this trade to our
pates , The country is capable of sustaining
a ueiuu population nnd of producing untold
stock and grain h'irvo-its. It U contiguous to
* Omaha. Tha 100,000 bond of stock shipped
out this year should bo handled lu Omaha
> nd la turn the supplies ol the pconlo luoujd
bo supplied by Omaha merchants And manu
facturers.
"This Is our glorious opportunity ( ind wo
cannot afford to neglect It. "

a aln finite dull : ind tllsplayed no dt-cldod
temper , though llio fencr .1 temlency was up

fractionally higher than lust nluhl. The trail
ing us a rule was devoid of feature or Inteiest
but the attention of the hears was turned upon
Klchmoii'l & West Point aRaln and that
stunk was comparatively active. The
loadlnir stocks were St. Paul , Unun

HnrlliiKton , Klchinnn I & West Point and Chicago
cage pas , und only In the last numo'l was the
extreme Iliictuatlon for tliu day as much as I
percent. London was a aln a buyer and the
local Dear element was rather Inactive except
In the stock above munitioned. The opnnliiK
was firm under the Influence of Iho foiolKn
buying but thi ) prices on Union I'aclllc. and
Richmond & West Point ( rom local
operators caused a slight depres
sion In those shares and checked the
upward tendency In tnu Koiicrat list after
Atchlson had rlsun Asc and others smiiller
fractions. The Industrials wcro t'spoclally
strone , however , and Su.nr rose 1'4 ' to tuiie.
The bunk statement showed a loss In the reserve -
servo of over f 1,000,001 , but had no appreciable
influence on thu speculation , helm ; about
what was oxpoi'ted and the Into trading was
utterly featureless. The mirki't dually closed

for Iho day , no material change laUIng place
In quotations among iho leading share. ; . It ill-
road blinds wcro fairly artlvo and Iho deal

Niw YoitK , AnR. 8. In A miserable turn-
ble-duwn slmnty that stands on the big lot
owned by John 1) . Crlmm'.ns , running half
way between Park anil Madison nvonuos , oa
Fifty-ninth street , I'olloonian Soaloy of the
Fifty-tlrst street station , yesterday found
the ilccompoioa body of Mrs.Vllllam T.
Coleinan. The husband of the woman lay
alongside the body asleep. On the floor wai
a bit ; clot of blood and everywhere about th
plnco were uiifipcakablo evidences ol lllth ,
degradation anil crituo.
Coicuian wivi placed under urrestnml taUon
to the Vorkvlllo police court , where ho win
roiniuutcd to owalt the action of the coroner.
Ci'lotnati ' and his wlfo have occupied this
mlsernblo hovel for about two yours. Tin
pluco itself Is u sail apology for anything like
human habitation. Thu house consists ol
three very badly built shanties all conuectoil
and fronting nt No. ? J ICnst Flfly-t.liith
strci't. Coleinan and his wife had occupied
the house by themselves. Mr , f.'rimmhia
gave them the place with the utiderstandlnij
that they should keep the lot lu good condi
tion.
Colouian used to room In the shanty facing
the street as n store to sell candy and news
papers. As n general rule Airs. C'Olcmau
served what customers happened to drop iu
and Col'iinnn spent his tnno visiting the
saloons in the neighborhood. When Intoxi
cated it was his habit to beat his wlfu until
she dropped senseless. For the last ten days
the door lo.ullng to the store has been closed ,
and the only sign of llfo was in the slinpo of
n big Newfoundland doff , which paced up
nnd down the yard showing his teeth ami
growling In a way that showed very plainly
that ho was master of the premises. Tim
llrst thin } , ' that attracted the attention of
1'ollconiaii Soaloy some days ago was the
horrible stench that came from the rear of
the old slmi.ty. lie could not quite make out
what it was , but put it down to the bad con
dition of the promise.- ) , looked at the New
foundland dog that paced the yard like A
sentinel , and forgot all about Iho smell lu
attending to ether duties.
Yesterday the odor that came from the
shanty seemed to bo moro villainous ihati
anything that had gone before. The faithful
dog oven scorned to bo overpowered with t/o !
terrible stench , for ho curled himself up ii/it
corner of the lot nud seemed ivrfootly
listless.
I'ollcetniin Soaloy called Policeman To/pin
and decided to make an investigation. They
climbed over the fence , but as th/y approached
preached the house the dog crawled to the
door nnd planted himself on guard. Ilo was !
lean and trauiit , and had evidently long been
a stranger ton good feed. Ho growlo.1 when
the policemen draw near , but was too weary
in offer any effectual resistance , A few vig
orous hlows from the policemen's clubi co'i
vinced the ilng that ho was in bad company ,
and ho imivuit away.
The lloor lending' the roar of the shanty
was locked , but was easily opened. The
sight that rriiotoil the officers was honuthlnit
appalling. The floor wns covered with vermin
and so was the bt-d on which the woman lay
dead , livi-rything In the room was tossed
about. Tlio bony was a mass of piilrnfactloti
and throw olT un odor of the most sickening
kind. A ilot : of blood that covorcu a paper
box on the lloor and the sadly disarranged
beilclothing told of a struggle and were
partial elows us to how the woman ui''t bcr
death.
Alongside of the dead woman Colomnn lay
peacefully aslcap that is , If n good round ,
resonant snore counts for anything llko
peace. Policeman Soaloy strucit the man
across the ftot with his club. Ho moved un
easily in thorickoty old bed , clnspijtl Ills dead ,
wife's hand , and then awoke with a lerriblo
start and sat bolt upright in bed ,
"Where is your wlfo ) " nsneil Iho oflicer.
'There she is , " said Coleman , waving hi *
hand to one side of the bed , but never for un
instant taking his eyes off the onlecrs.
"Sho is dead , " replied the policeman. "O.
is that sot" exclaimed Coleman , as bo rolled
out of the bed on the lloor and buried his fuco
in his dirt begrimed bunds.
The policeman tried to Induce the wretch
to toll how his wife died , Out failed. All they
could got him to say was that ho was sick
and had been asleep for a long time. Ho was
sure his wife was alive when ho went to
sleep. Just when Coleinan dropped oft Into
hi ; protracted doze ho says ho has no means
of telling.
From the nppoaranno of the woman's body
thu pollco think she has been dead nuout Hvo
