;
Indications are that if the prices for
Montana cattle hold up a few weeks the
shipments from tliiH state will be as
large this year as last, when they footed
up 210,000 head. There were several
reasons early in the season for believing
that shipments this year would be
scarcely half that number. Among
them were the facts that the business
last year was phenomenal, high prices
ruling and tempting owners to cut their
herds down to a minimum; that several
large owners made the first shipments
for two years, and the fact that the win
ter had been mild and the summer ex
ceedingly favorable. But depleted herds
were replenished by natural increase
and heavy drives from Texas, and at
present there are great herds of prime
cattle in the state. The outlook for the
rest of the shipping season, which will
is
continue till December, is gootl. The
corn-fed s'oek is about out of the way,
and every day Montana range cattle are
getting into better condition. One of
tiie best indications of the condition of
the cattle business in the state is the
business done by Secretary Prewitt of
the hoard of live stock commissioners.
During August the receipts of his office ,
for estrays was about *20.000. The
receipts of the office up to the 24th of °
September had aggregated *50,000, and ! < i
the prosj ects were that they would be
kept up the balance of the month. Oc
tober is always the biggest month for
shipments, and there is little question
that before the season closes Secretary
Prewitt's office receipts will almost equal
! those of last year *200,000 and that
I tiie shipment of cattle will be as great.
j Not only is the cattle business good this
>ear, but the same can be said of the
sheep industry. There have been
great many sales of stock sheep, and
all at good prices. Tiie horse business
will average with last year, and, per
haps, lias been a little better, but the
sales have not been numerous, nor have
j the prices realized been very high.

COOKE CITY NOTES.
M. W. Fitzgerald of St. Paul has been
si>ending the past two months in this
district, attending to representation und
development of properties in which he
and other eastern capitalists are inter
ested. Upon the Moulton mine, owned
by Messrs. Fitzgerald. Messer and Mann
heimer, a crosscut has been run at a
depth of seventy-live feet. This cross
cut, which has been run ten feet, cuts
into the vein twenty-eight inches, expos
ing rich ore. The extent of tiie ore body
is not known, as work was temporarily
suspended before the wall was reached.
The Talisman, Rara Avis and Acme,
owned by Mr. Fitzgerald and a number
of other eastern capitalists, have been
systematically worked the past season.
From these properties a sample of five
tons of ore will be shipped to eastern
smelters to secure a mill test.
During his stay in Cooke Mr. Fitzger
ald visited over two hundred claims, and
is enthusiastic in declaring that the
showing; is simply immense. He be

President Oakes and party arrived at
Missoula Sunday on their way to the
coast. Mr. Hannaford, general traffic
agent, stated Jo a reporter of the Inde
pendent that the traffic on the road was
very heavy at present and that at tiie
eastern end of the line they were scarcely
able to get sufficient cars to handle tiie
business, and that the local business in
Montana was increasing rapidly. Ex
tensive improvements were in contem
plation by the management, he said.
These would consist in cutting down
grades, putting in heavier steel rails, re
placing pine ties by oak ties, tilling in
where wooden trestles nre now used and
building stone culverts; in fact, making
the Northern Pacific track and roadbed
one of the best west of the Mississippi.

From that time she has been prominent

Ethel Brown, a quadroon inhabitant of
East Galena street, find a bottle full of
sulphuric acid thrown over tier this
evening and was badly burned on her
back and one of her arms. A couple of
drops of the Hilid also struck lier in the
face, one over the eye and one on tiie

bottle, and after throwing as much of it
as he could at her tiie fellow broke tiie
bottle over the girl's head, and the rest
of it ran down over her shoulders. Her j
dress was burned into ribbons and
alinost the entire upper part of her
body is covered with big scars and blis

all serious.
The woman states that she was stand

did not know came up and threw tiie

The .Judge lteiil»irml.
Miner, 25th: Yesterday morning
1 Judge Pemberton settled the matter of
j the right of Judge W. H. DeWitt to reg
a , ister in Butte. The day previous regis
of try agent J. R. Russell had ueelined to
i enroll the name of Judge DeWitt who
temporarily resides in Helena, for the
| reason that the Judge could not sub
scribe to the oath which provides ttiat
tiie affiant has been "actively and not
constructively" a bona Hd7 resident'of
tiie county for thirty days. As this is
the only form of oath furnished the reg
istry agents and as similar cases might
arise it was thought best to have the
matter judicially determined. Accord
at
tiie
tiie
in
re
in
ingly Judge Pemberton was applied to
and tie issued an alternative writ, re
quiring tiie agent either to register Mr.
DeWitt or show cause why he did not.
Yesterday when the case came up tiie
Judge made an order requiring the agent
to register Judge DeWitt upon his sub
scribing to an oath as follows : "That I
will have been a bona tide resident of
Montana for thirteen years and in the
county of Silver Bow thirty days next
preceding the day of the ensuing elec
tion." To this Mr. DeWitt cheerfully
subscribed and Mr. Russell as cheerfully
placed his name on the register.

The Miner relates the following exper
ience of a Livingston man in the wicked
city of Butte :
John Dalgreen. a young Swede, ran up
against a gang of bunco thieves Tuesday
morning und was relieved of 8C5, all the
money he possessed save *1.75. Dalgreen
arrived in the city from Livingston last
Sunday morning in search of work.
While sauntering along Main street yes
terday morning admiring all there is to
be admired in that thoroughfure he was
accosted by a young man who, after
making himself very familiar and learn
ing that "Yon" Dalgreen was looking for
a "yob," informed the unsuspecting
voung man from Livingston that he was
a moulder by profession and that if he
....... u: — *1... t .....
would go with him to tiie Montana Iron
works on Lower Main street he would
get him work. This was "duck soup"
for John Dalgreen, and with an alacrity
exhibited only by a tenderfoot he accom
panied the fellotv. Arrived at the iron
works "Yon's" companion went in and
pretended to be looking for the foreman
but of course thut gentleman was not in
sight. On coming out he turned to Dal
green and said : "The foreman is not in
just now. Come into the saloon a few
minutes and we'll wait for him."
With visions of a "yob" floating before
him, Dalgreen went with the bunco
steerer into the Walker House saloon,
which is just below the iron works, and
the former purchased five dollars worth
of chips in a stud poker game in which
two persons were engaged. On the first
rattle out of the box Dulgreen's "genial"
companion raked in a big pot and then
invited Dalgreen to piny the chips for
him. "Oh, I never play cards," said he.
"Well, just play tiiese chips for me,"
of : said the thief, and if you lose why it

won't cost you a cent."
Then Dalgreen sat down at the table
which was in a little back room, and
played two hands with varying success.
In the next hand he received three aces
tho' ! and two kings—a full hand- and under
the supposition that he had "them fel

Additional particulars of tiie shooting
affray at Cooke, of which brief mention
was made in last week's Enterprise,
have since been received. The princi
pals in tiie affair were James Maloy, a
new arrival at Cooke, and William Chick,
an old-timer of that camp. Tiie trouble
which culminated in tiie fatal shooting
of Chick began Wednesday forenoon of
last week in the saloon of R. B. Emison.
A slight misunderstanding had arisen
between Malov and a man named Allen.
Chick, who was somewhat under the
influence of liquor, and in which condi
tion always ready for an encounter, inter
fereil, and, it is stated, made a slash at
Maloy with a knife. The blow fell
stiort, barely grazing the hand of Maloy,
who seized a chair and knocked Chick
down. Chick then repaired to ins cabin
and armed himself with his riHe.
Later lie again met Maloy in front of the
saloon and the quarrel was renewed.
Maloy hud with him and standing against
the outside of the bttildi ng a 45-calibre
Sharp's rifle. This weapon he secured
a,ld Bto PP« d out into tl,e 8treet ' l ,re '
pared to use it, when Chick's gun
was discharged, but without taking

effect. Almost simultaneously with the
discharge of Chick's revolver Maloy dis
charged itis ritie, tiie bullet taking effect
in Chick's left side, and, passing clear
through tiie body, came out along tiie
backbone. He was eared for by those
wito had been spectators of the shooting
and made as comfortable as possible, but
only lingered about two hours after the
leaden missile had penetrated his body.
.Maloy was arrested and taken before
Jll8tice ,,f lhe Peace R ' E ' Cutlor - where
lie waived an examination and was held
v ithout bail to appear at tiie next term
of tiie district court. He was brought
this cit - v Fri(la - V evenin « and lod « ( ' d 1,1
