THE YELLOWSTONE PARK PROJECT.
tHr TELEGRAPH TO THE rRIBuSE.l


WAsHrNGToN. Jan. 20.-Thc total number OF
acres which the proposed Yellowstone lease will
secure to Rufus Hatch and his associates is $500
a full section in one place and six half sections in
others giving sites for seven hotels. The fact
that the Assistant Secretary, Mr.. Joslyn
agreed to make lease for these plots
after the Secretary of the Interior had expressed
the opinion in letter to the superintendent
of the park that there should be no lease of any plot
greater than twenty acres is only an apparent con-
tradiction. The Secretary changed his MUD, MI
Josyn says the representation OF the eSsees,that
in a country where half the land is rock, 1t would
be impossible to get along within such limits Each
hotel must furnish its own supplies to large ex-
tent and each must have pasturage Tor twenty OF
thirty cows There must be attractive grounds
about the hotels, if they TO be for tourists ana
these will take room. There must be great many
outhouses, storehouses stables, barns etc.
because each hotel must he q community
by itself, and these must be reasonable
distance from the hotel These plots arc near the
natural curosities. of course but Mr.. Josiyn says
they do not incose them obstuct access to them
in any way, and any such obstruction was ex-
pressly forbidden in the contract.
The Assistant Secretary says that the lease which
he had agreed to make would have put the keeping
of hotels running of stages ETC.. in the hands OF
single responsible firm, with money enough to give
the public proper service, who would have been
under the direct supervision Of the Secretary OF
the Interior. Their charges were to be hxed
by him and he would have the power to fine them
for any misconduct by reduction of charges ne
schedule had already been liked One or the stlpu,,
lations was that the company should furnlsh ai
the hacks required by tourists for 10 DAY eaGh
which he considered very moderate rate. fhe
result he fears may be the letting into the park or
amob of hack-drivers and others who Will swindle
tourists and make trouble. They can only be pun
isbed by being taken into Montana whereas II the
whole business were in the hands of single com,
pany any extortion or wrong could DO reported
to the Secretary and would be punished by Tine or
some reduction of their prices.
