THOMPSON, Supreme Commander Markey this after- noon made the following statement in re- gard to Mr. Thompson's shortage: “Charles B, Thompson has been supreme financ keeper of the supreme tent since it was or- kanized in September, 1883, and has han- dled and disbursed more than $15,000,000 during that time, and until this defalcation no thought has ever been entertained agAinst his integrity and betrayal oun his part will be keenly felt by the membership. The supreme tent keeps on deposit large amounts of money in leading banks in several com- merclal centers on which warrants are drawn for the payment of death claims, but a1l collections are wade through the Com- mercial bank of Port Huron and It is a part of the duties of the supreme finance keeper to transfer occasionally from the bank to other depositories money for the burpose, and of keeping the account good at such banks. The money that wus used in this case by Mr. Thompson was on a draft transferring from the bank to the First National bank of New York. Mr. Thompson's shortage is $57.000, ’ut no loss will be incurred by the supreme ent, as every fluancial official of the asso- ciation, Including Mr. Thompson, is bonded In surety companies and the bouds held by the order as security for Mr. Thompson's integrity is much greater than the shortage. But the fact that no pecuniary loss is sus- tained does not reliave from regret the membership of the association. “His bondsmen have been notified of the defalcation and the supreme tent will look 10 them to make good the amount. Pending an adjustment with the bond companies, there will be no delay in the payment of death dues.” Tt I8 said that Mr. Thompson, who was interested in the lake carrying trade, lost $75.000 in June on the sale of the stcamer Harlew The shortage was discovored last by Supreme Commander Markey, examining the books of the order confronted with the shortage broke down and confessed.

THE OMAHA DA BEEFSTEAKMAY BE ALUXURY|TO STAMP OUT SMALLPOXCAILLARD LANDS MARINE ords Are Decteasing on the R Alarming Rate. CONGRESS WILL BE ASKED TO INTERFERE g8 &% 8 Waste and Destruction of Cattle and Graving Whi Ground Now Going h Will Be Grievoasly Felt Later, CHICAGO, Nov According to informa tion received at the headquarters of the | National Live Stock association in this city congress will have (he western public land question brought to its attention this win ter in a new manner. A number of prom- inent cattlemen of the west, who have been quietly Investigating, are prepared to show that during the last five years therc has been an enormous decrease in the number of cattle in this country, a decrease which serlously threatens the beef food supply and unless speedy action is taken by con- gress in the course of a very few yvears beef will be selling at such a fabulous price that only the wealthy will be able to afford to indulge in the Tuxury of a beefsteak The cause of thie rapld decline in the number of beef cattle fe sald to be due solely to the contraction of the western public grazing lands and the increase in the consumptive demand. The rapid settle ment of the west has caused the ranges left o become crowded. Grasses have not been roseeded and consequently millions of acres of once good pasture have been turned Into absolute desert Large Herds Are DI Most of the large herds have been dis- persed and slaughtered aud the bulk «/ the cattle supply is now being furnished by the small stockmen, but the evolution from the large herds on the open range to the small herds in pastures is too slow, owing to un- favotable land conditions, and where a few years ago the markets were supplied with cattls 4, G and § years of age, cven year- lings are now being slaughtered to make up the supply of beef. The stockmen claim that the unfavorable methods of administering the public lands | of the west are back of the threatened | shortage, and at the coming national con- vention in Chicago next month an effort will be made to throw the whole matter Into congress. The convention will ask that a committee be appointed, with expert assistance, to Investigate and devise plans for relieving the situation The stockmen in the natlonal association have been etriving for several years to de- vise some plan for amending the land laws that would remedy existing evils, but have | been unable to agree. One faction is In favor of leasing the lands by the govern- ment. Another wants the lands ceded to the states; another wants the laws left ae they rued deem the lands by irrigation May Take Action. As a compromise for all, it is now pro- | posed to bave congress take charge of the whole matter through a committee, and after investigation, take such action as will tend to stop the waste and destruction now | going on and encourage the establishment of small stock farms. The plan will aslo recommend government ald in building storage reservoirs on the ranges near head- waters of streams. The big packers admit that there has| been 4 serious decrease in the supply of cattle during the last five yeurs and they are looking forward to higher prices in the near future, but they say (he people will be forced to eat mutton instead of beef, though | even mutton will probably become scarce later on, as the same conditions which are diminishing the heef supply will also at- fect the sheep supply.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.—(Special Tele gram.)-—Senator Dietrich today through his secretary brought to the attention of the commissloner of Indian aftairs the possi- bBliity of an epidemic of smalipox among the citizens of Homer, Thurston county, a village just north of the Winnebago Indian reservation, unless imperative action s taken by the authoritics. The senator urged immediate action on the part of the government in view of the eeriousness of the case and asked that something be done to prevent the spread of disease. As the Indians are citiggns of Nebraska, it was decided that the question of quarantine rests solely with the Thurston county au- thorities, and { devolves upon them to move in the matter. Commissioner Jones, when the matter was brought to his attention, dispatched a vigorous telegram to Agent ¢ P. Matthows, calling his attention to the condition of aftairs and instructing him to uee all the means possible to stamp out and isolate all cases of smallpox and guard against the spread of contagion. “We are fearful of an epidemic of small- pox on the Indian reservation,” said Com missioher Jones today. ‘“The Indians have been free from the disense for several years, but our physiciana have warned to take the utmost precaution, and accord- ingly we have sent out instructions to all Agents to 1solate cases and quarantine rig- orously. The Indian office stands ready to do whatover 13 possible to provent con- tagion and all we ask is the help of the citizens to stamp out the disease.’ Department Not, Rural free delivery routes have been or- dered established January 1 as follows Nebraska—Superfor, Nuckolls county Route embraces ninety-four miles, contain ing a population of 1,000; F.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-Having spent all the money collected by the Battleship Maine Relief association, Captain Sigsbes has requested Secretary Long to appoint a | board to audit his accounts. He says that reatly needed relief has been afforded to dlstressed rolatives of the Maine's dead by this fund, contributed by the generosity of the patriotic' and sympathetic people of the country. Tt Is plearant o report that whereas applieations for’ assistance for a long time after-ahe loss of the Maine were both frequent @ud pressing, that these so fell off during my adinistration of the fund t(hat it became tocessary to publish from time to time, through the courtesy ess, notifications of the fact that there was still a balance of the fund. These conditions show apparently that where there was much destitution about the time the fund was contributed, it was relieved so largely and opportunely by the fund as to evable beneficlaries to manage thelr own affairs without further assistance.” Secretary Long, in Sigsboe from bis trust cleasing Captain expresses his ap- | preciation of Captain Sigsbee's services and “Your name will always be asso- this famous ship (Maine) and understand the pleasure you this renewed association crew whose captain you say clated with found in the brave have were." The total amount of money collected and disbursed by this relief association was $31,018.
