(Special.)—The country is full of cattle buyers, and good prices are being paid for stock. It has al- ways been said that the best cattle came from the ranges between the rivers. The grass this season cannot be excelled, and there is enough feed going to waste to feed fully 50,000 head of cattle. The people of eastern Nebraska are not aware of the mag- nificence of western Nebraska's grazing lands and the nutritious quality of the hay. Alfalfa_has been raised in large quantiiies and will be fed principally to hogs and catile. Its fattening qualities are simply fmmense. There will be considerable grain in this covnty. The binder and threshing machines are kept on the jump continually. Corn will be only fair. The crops In the irrigated sec- tions are excellent. One farmer threshed thirty-five bushels of wheat to the acre and eighty bushels of oats. Wind mill irrigation Cheyen g0 delegation | ang stream frrigation are the two problems of this country, and from on will be strictly adhered to.

The minister expressed regret at the occurrence through his interpreter It is frealy admitted at the legation that in the present state of feeling in China, growing out of the ignorance ana preju of the natives, especially because of the recent war, all foreigners in the interior of China are in more or less danger. The hops is expressed that the missionaries will recognize this state of things and will seek the treaty ports until the excitement subsides and normal con- ditions are restored The utn confidence is expressed of the intention of the Chinese imperial government to protect the Christian missions as far as possible, and the last edict from the em peror issued within the past ten days is quoted as evidence of this intention. A quite full synopsis of this ¢ iment has been received by cable. It is entirely in the interest of the Christians and is directed es- pecially to -the high Chinese officials. They are asked to see that the lives and property of all Christians, both foreign and native, are protected at all times. The edict also commands the lower officials and the people generally to observe this behest, and closes by saying any violation of the order will be | t severely punished. Confidence is also expressed oughness of the investigation into the recent rlots and it is belleved that as soon as t imperial will can be made known the Ameri- can and English consuls will be admitted to the hearings Officials of the State department said that it was probable the rlot was one which was reported to the State department several days ago as occurring at Yung Fu, a place not far from Foo Chow, the facts in the case corresponding so closely to the report | of the Yung Fu affair that it is believed the same report, having reached Hong Kong, was cabled as a new outrage. Minister Denby was informed of the Yung Fu affair, and this will be investigated by the commis- sion_which has gone to Ku Cheng NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—At the headquar- . ters of the Methodist Board of iForeign Mis. sions, Dre A.
