Bltsscni.s, Sept. 30.-There are, as
usual, in such cases many contradictory
reports circulating in regard to Gen.Blou
lunger's behavior previous to his suicid',.
Folr instance, it was said shortly after
his death became known that the gen
eral had not in any way allowed his
friends to form any idea as to his inten
tions. This evening those who formed
his entourage admit that directly the
contrary was the fact. They now say
that recently he has frequently openly
avowed a desire for death, and it is even
added that the general has several times
of hInte even made attempts to take his
own life. The consequence has been
that he hbts been watched as closely as
possible by friends, who still remain loyal t
to him at the low water of his fortunes. V
Even the latter appear to have finally
grown tired of their task and to have de
termined to resign their positions as c
guardians of the fallen leader's life.
With this object in mind his friends
in this city recently warned
the General's nence and the latter's has
band that the ex-minister of war who, at
one time was looked upon as a man to r
lead "la revanche" enthusiasts of Berlin, a
was so dependent as to be apparently ti
determined to commit suicide.
This niece and her husband arrived
some days ago at the General's hotel in U
Rue Montoyer and so impressed were el
they with his demeanor that one of the d
first things they did was to cause all
weapons found in his apartments to be
taken away and hidden where he could n°
not get at them. General Boulanger it
must have noticed the precautions which gi
were being taken to save his life
and unknown to his neice a
ana ner husband he must have managed
to secure and hide from them the pistol
with which he eventually shot himself.
Even the general's valet, who had been
instructed to use his utmost endeavors
to find and obtain possession of any
weapon the general might have about
him, seems to have been cleverly de
ceived in this fatal instance. Gen. Boul
anger, according to the stories told this
evening, made no secret of his weariness
of life since the collapse of his party and
particularly so since the death of Mme
de Bonnemain. His friends now recall
the fact that when the coffin lid was
finally closed over the remains of his
mistress he kept on repeating aloud in
heart-broken tones "Au revoir et a bien
tot." Every day about 4 o'clock in the
afternoon, it has now become known,
General Boulanger since Mmoe de Bon
nemain's death has gone to the cemetery
at Ixelles and has deposited some hand.
some floral emblem, generally a crown
upon her grave. He would stay by the
grave of his beloved friend for some
moments, some times for an hour either
engaged in prayer or in deep thought.
Over the grave itself the general had
caused a pretty white tombstone to be
erected and at its head stood a broken
column inscribed "Marguerite 1855-1891."
A few days ago the unfortunate gen
eral deposited on Mame. de Bonnemain's
grave a handsome crown of flowers bear
ing on it the words "A bientol Marguer
ite." The family of the general and
servants of the hotel in Rue Montoyer
were therefore somewhat surprised when
this morning they heard him order his
landau at a much earlier hour than usual,
saying that today he was going to Ix
elles cemetery at 10 in the morning in
stead of 4 in the afternoon. The fa.aily
and servants at first paid little attenthoi
to the change in the gen
eral's plans and nobody seems
to have had the slightest idea that he
intended to commit suicide. Relatives
persistently decline to furnish the public
with any definite information as to
written declarations which he has left
behind him. Yet it is known the dead
man prepared several documents for
publication. All property and docu
ments of Gen. Boulanger have been
placed in sealed receptacles by the mag
istrates.
In addition to a photograph of Mme.
de Bonnemain a Iockof white hair woven
into the shape of a heart was found next
to Boulanger's heart. Thi general had
written a long letter to his mother an
nouncing his departure on a long voyage
and bidding her not to be uneasy.

Weather Bulletin.
WAsHImNTON, Oct. 1.-Following is
the monthly weather and crop bulletin
issued by the weather bureau. It is ac
companied by charts and a tabular
statement showing thermal conditions
and general distribution of rains which
prevailed throughout the United States
during the month of September as de
termined from regular telegraphic re
ports of the weather bureau. This
monthly statement of the more import
ant meteorological elements is of special
interest. owing to the unusual condi
tions which existed during the month of
September and as it forms a supplement
to the weekly weather crop bulletin data
it is placed in such form as to enable
those who are interested in staple crops
to l.eotne familiar with the meterologi
cal conditions which prevailed over the
principal agricultural districts at
close of the crop season. Tho informa
tion contained in the present bulletin is
of current interest as it presents a state
ment of the conditions which forced the
rapid maturing of the corn crop and se
cured its safety from injury by frost,
while at the opening of the month this
important crop was from 10 to 15 days
late and in danger from frost. Not only
is the information thus furnished of cur
rent value but it serves as a record for
comparison between the actual yield of
a more important crop and the meteoro
logical conditions wilch prevailed dur
ing, the growing season. The month of
Septemtber has been warmer and dryer
than any previous September of which
there is a record in the weather
bureau, over the principal agricul
tural districts east of the Rocky
mountains. The greatest excess in
temperature occurred over the northern
states where the daily average was from
4 to 8 degrees higher than usual. In the
upper Mississippi valley the average
daily temperature was from 6 to 8 de
grees higher than usual. During the
ten days ending September 28. through
out the Mississippi and Ohio valleys and
the lake region the mean maximum
temperature exceeded by from 12 to 15
degrees the normal maximum tempera
ture for the third decade of September I
and the actual temperatures were ob- f
served to he from 2 to 9 degrees higher i
than any other that the bureau has re
ceived from this season of the year.
Foreign Politics.
NEWv1CARTIE., Oct. 1.--The great annual
meeting of liberal delegates from the
party associations of England and Wales,
which opened today, is the last before
the coming general election and must
therefore have a permanent influence
upon the fortunes of the party. An
electorial programme must be definitely
declared and so formulated as to be ac
cepted by the liberal candidates as un
mistakably that of the party. Yet dur
ing the past few days, pregnant as this
great caucus may be with important is
sues, it has been possible to glean little
from the liberal papers and not much
from current talk, and the floating opin
ion of the party circles as to
what the federated delegates would
do. So far there has been no
want of excited interest in the proceed
ings. The papers have given much
space to chronicling local preparation for
the reception of delegates, lists of names
and dry disconnected items of the most
minor importance, but they failed al
most entirely to indicate what must be
points of vital interest in the proceed
ings. The pary eaders of course know
how the federation is to be guided.
Schnadhorst above all as the organizer
of the federation and the Moltke of the
liberal forces knows exactly what their
objective point is, but to the mass of
delegates even the agents of the meeting
remain unknown until the beginning of
each day's setting.

A CATTLEMAN TALKS,
A Good Year for Ranehmen - Northern
Montana Easily Leads for
r Quality and Pries.
I A TIuaUNE reporter yesterday held
h quite an extended conversation with one
a of Montana's oldest cattlemen. On the
opening of the reservation three years
ago he was the very first to drive into it
a herd of cattle. His long experience
with the business makes him as well
I fitted to talk on the question as anyone
in the state.
"The finest cattle in Montana," he
t said, are raised here in the north. The
a country termed by some the Milk river
e country, and by others the reservation,
easily leads in eastern markets and re
ceives for its fat kine the largest prices
e anywhere paid for western steers. When
I was in Chicago some time since I saw
some of the best cattle from the Yellow
stone go for 84.50, while my own sold for
84.90. Northern IMontana cattle are
sought for in Chicago, and seldom stand
in the yards longer than an hour or two
waiting for a buyer. Since the rally in
prices after the big drop some time
since they have sold easily at from $4.65
to 84.10."
The Home Land and Cattle company
nmade the first shipment from this sec
tion and succeeded in selling a carload
at 85.~2. Right on their heels Floweree
Sshipped two trainloads of native cattle
and received 8.10. Then in a short
time, as you remember, prices took a
tumble and these parties stopped ship
ping though both have now resumed.
The Judith Cattle company is also at
the present time shipping from Chinook.
With the exception of Power, this en
tire company drove their cattle to the
Milk River country and fattened them
there."
"It has been a good year for cattlemen,
a very good year. Just now the market
is very satisfactory for steers. On in
ferior cattle it has of course fluctuated,
but on the better grades it has been in
the main steady throughout the year.
Speaking for myself I have made five
shipments. The lowest I received was
$4.40, the highest $4.90 and
my average was about $4.65.
Last year I only shipped about seven
hundred head. Picked steers then paid
about $42.80. This year I shipped about
1,2(t0 and they will, I think, average
about 800. So you can see the difference
both in the number shipped and in the
price realized. Cattle-men have been
holding their cattle, selling only what
they were conmpelled to sell and waiting
for a year like the present. The Home
Land and Cattle company will ship be
tween 14,000 and 15,000 head and Flow
eree will ship between 5,000 and 6,000.
"1 believe you asked me a while ago it
any money had been lost on cattle this
year. Some of the speculators who
bought during high prices at the first of
the season may have lost but I don't
think any cattle man has. At least none
of them seem anxious to quit the busi
ness. The Home Land and Cattle com
pany, who, as I told you, are shipping
some 15,000 or 10,000 are replacing these
with others and will soon have about
20,000 new Texans on the range.
"No, taking it all in all, it has been a
good year and I don't think anyone has
much cause to complain."
