Snow-Hard times for ranchers Overproduction of cattle and the resulting low prices for beef are driving many ranchers out of business. Those that are staying afloat are not making the purchases of trucks, building supplies and other materials that buoy the economy. And, to add to ranchers' woes, other meats like pork and chicken also are plentiful, further depressing market prices.

U.S. apologizes to Austria The United States ambassador to Austria, Swanee Hunt, apologizes to Austria for not having shared information about a reported 79 caches of weapons left in that country by the U.S. during the Cold War to arm partisans in case of a Soviet invasion. A former Austrian journalist says, however, that the Austrian government knew about the weapons caches in the late 1940s.

The Clinton administration did not know about the weapons depots, apparently, until last week, and the Austrian government also was unaware of them. Page7A. four weeks. Sunday only $8 for four weeks. Mail delivery $5.75 for one week, includes Mexico and Canada.

(AP) and Sensibility," Emma Thompson's adaptation of the 19th-century Jane Austen novel, won best dramatic picture honors at last night's Golden Globes. Nicolas Cage, the death-wish alcoholic of "Leaving Las Vegas," and Sharon Stone, the treacherous wife in "Casino," won best dramatic acting awards. "And no one is more surprised than me. OK!" Stone said. "OK, it's a miracle!" Cage won his Golden Globe for another story about love and loss in Las Vegas.

"For me, it's a storybook dream come true," Cage said. In an interview later, Cage told Dick Clark what attracted him to the film: "I thought it's the most non-judgmental love story I had ever read. And I think it's bittersweet and not totally tragic." A movie about a talking pig called "Babe" won best picture honors for comedy or musical. Its producer, George Miller, accepted the honor for his animal cast and 400 crew members, declaring, "A lot of people helped bring this little pig to life, including Universal, who said, 'A talking pig? Sure, why Miller concluded his remarks by putting on a toy pig snout. Mel Gibson won best director honors for his Scottish independence epic "Braveheart" and John Travolta and Nicole Kidman won Globes for acting in a comedy or musical.

In his acceptance speech, Gibson said: "I didn't expect to get this." Many in the audience were also surprised because of an expected swell of support for Ron Howard of "Apollo 13" and Ang Lee of "Sense and Sensibility," who were considered favorites.

"Not only will those stories be printed in The Chicago Tribune, but U-Wire stories serve our specific readers better." Among the stories that have moved on the U-Wire in the last several months are a piece from the Columbia Spectator involving a Columbia University student who was reported missing, a report from The Michigan Daily of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor on a controversy about the Nike Corp.

signing shoe contracts with NCAA teams, and a series about alcohol abuse among college students that was first published in The Kentucky Kernel, the newspaper of the University of Kentucky at Lexington. Michael Lazerow, a journalism major at Northwestern University in Evanston, directs the U-Wire. (It is not affiliated with the university.) He began clipping stories from a handful of college papers almost two years ago and mailing copies of them to several papers across the country. But the stories had lost their timeliness by the time they arrived. So Lazerow created a' network that uses multiple e-mail transmissions both to collect news from newspapers and to distribute a package of the most newsworthy to each of the U-Wire's members.

(The U-Wire has its subscribers send their top stories via e-mail to its electronic mailbox when their papers go to press at night.) Nick Goldin 1996 The New York Times After a recent list compiled by four Cornell freshmen of "75 reasons why women shouldn't have freedom of speech" was distributed to tens of thousands of people via the Internet, students at several other colleges as well as Cornell read about it in their campus newspapers. But unlike most out-of-town news that appears in university publications, the articles about the misogynist e-mail message weren't taken from The Associated Press or any other major wire service. They were distributed by electronic mail from a service run especially for campus news. In an age when an increasing number of Americans are embracing the convenience and efficiency of electronic mail, college newspaper editors have found that the new technology enables their papers to cover events from other schools with a regularity that was never before possible. The first organization to link college papers around e-mail addresses is the University Wire, based in Evanston, III.

The University Wire, or U-Wire, is an electronic news service that collects and distributes local campus news among a network of 18 daily campus newspapers, including The Yale Daily News, the Oklahoma Daily of the University of Oklahoma at Norman and The Daily Texan of the University of Texas at Austin. Christina Headrick, the editor in chief of The Daily Northwestern, said her paper has been using U-Wire stories on a regular basis since e-mail made it easier last failed and he tried to deploy his spare chute, but it did not open, O'Connor said.

Chad Devoll. Devoll was part of the 3rd Battalion, 10th Special Forces, a Colorado Springs, military unit trained to make covert entries into battle, said Major Tim Edinger, a public affairs officer at Fort Carson.

Edinger said the soldier was trained to jump from high altitudes and open his parachute much closer to the ground. This was what he was trying to do when he plummeted to his death: His unit had been in Tucson conducting a military free fall refresher course since Jan. 12 and he had completed the training earlier in the day, Edinger said. Pima County Sheriffs Department spokesman Sgt. Michael O'Connor said Devoll had made at least 50 previous jumps.

Devoll was taking a recreational jump with friends when he died, authorities said. His equipment was not military-issue. Shortly after noon, Devoll jumped from a plane at 12,000 feet above the ground.
