A Fortané: in Cattle,
The most-valuable herd of thor“ oughbred cattle, ever owned in: this
country was that fdrmerly in the possosion of Walcott and Campbell, of
“York mills; > Oneida ~ county, New .
York. Calves old enough to wean
were frequently sold as high as $5,000, says the San Francisco Balletin.
The berd was enriched by the best
stock in England, or-anywhere else,
notil finally it was bred dp to a point
where it surpassed any other in the
country. Mr. Walcott withdrew
from the business some time ago.
Samuel Campbell offered the entire .
herd of one hundred and eleven head
a few days*ago at public auction.
This sale drew together the famous
cattle breeders from all parts of the
country, and a number came over
from England. The herd brought
the suit of $380,890. ‘The highest
prices were paid by English breeders.
The Kighth Duchess of Geneva"
brought $40,600, The‘*Tenth Duchess of Geneva’ brought $35,000,
The “First Duchess of Oneida’ was
sold for $30,600; while the average
price paid for ten others exceeded
These are the highest
prices ever paid for thoroughbred
cattle in the United States. The
_ highest bidders were English breeders who bred both for money.and
reputation, These may. be called
fancy pricés, but the animals. were
sold under free’ competition among
‘men who fully understand their business, anid who are making fortunes
in that vocation. There have been
two-or'threé-instances in this country where a famous running horse
has brought more than $40,000,
Oneor. two have beea sold as “high
as $60,000: But there has never
been, we believe, a stud of horses
sold in this courtry for so much
money-98-this herd of: Durhani cattle brought: They will be scattered
ver the vountry and will in time become the foundation of other herds
which: may also become famous,
. None of these ani
know, were
6, so'far as’ wa
ht on account of
of raising thoroughbred cattle is in
its infancy, here. A few choice ani‘als have been imported during the
last three years, and the successive:
State Fairs show what rapid progress
is making iu this direction. But
most ‘cattle growers here would
think $5,000 was a stunning price
for a single animal, and perhaps it
would be in so limited a market,

Failure of Jay Cooke & Co, . ~
In New York on Thursday last-the
day was one of unusual excitement,
growing out of the suspension of
Jay Cooke & Co. The other failures
which have recently occurred ‘were
mere local affairs, and of course produced little excitement compared
with Jay Codke’s. The connection
of Jay Cooke with the Government
in marketing the loans during the
war and the funding Bacardi since,
has given the firm national reputation, which of course only intensified
the excitetment consequent ypon their
suspension, The money market
was unfavorably affected by the failure and the general distrust engendered thereby. The following card
was posted on the office.door.of Jay
Cooke & Co., at Philadelphia, on
Thursday last: "
We regret to be obliged to announce that, owing to unexpected des
mands of us, our office has been
obliged to suspend payment. “In a
few days we will be able to present:a
statement of our affairs to our creditors, until which time we must ask
for their patient consideration, We
believe our assets to be largely jin
excess of our liabilities,

old Chicago blonde, was lured into a
‘secrst marriage by Frederick L. Cartin, who had designs upon the $10,000 of which he supposed her to be
the possessor. He took her to St,
Louis, and they bad a delightful
honeymoon of 20 days, but, having
ascertained that, instead of a ‘fine
fortune, his wife had only $65, Mr,
Curt.s basely deserted the: trusting
