Justice Gunn's court was crowded
yesterday afternoon by ranchmen and
cattle owners and citizens who were
anxious to hear the facts in the case of
Mckinnon as ELECTED by an examina-
ton. 1t will be remembered that Nc

by Deputy Sheriff Peter Sweeney, who
went up to North Park at the request
of the Wyoming cattle association and
cattle owners who have herds grazing
there to Investigate matters. There
had been for some time depredatiohs
among the herds. Cattle had been
b%utchered and sold. Sweeney came
down with McKinnon, whom he arrest
ed on the suspicion of having been i'm.
plicated In the butchering and selling
of cattle. He was put under $500 bail
to appear for examination. which bail
was furnished by Tom Ernest, who
knew the mau in the park. McKinnon
has been in town for the past week, and
was yesterday examined.

room was crowded with cattle owners
and ranchmen who were anxious to get

funny work up in the park. The prin-
eipal witness against McKlnnon was
Mr.. hannels, the proprietor of the
Forks hotel. Mr.. Rannels said that
McKlnnon had sold him some beef
which the latter had taken of the
range and which he did not own. Then
