A Celebrated Case.

Mcssrs. Carey, Corlett and Davis, the
arbitrators in the case of the Boston Cattle
company Page & Som vs.. Rand, Griggs
x %Steadman, Of Laramie City, rendered a
decision in favorof Page & Son yesterday.
Page & Son purchased from Rand, Griggs
& Steadman a herd of cattle and ranch
property, near Medicine Bow, for $780,
600. They paid 500, 900 cash and gave
Dromissory notes for the remainder. Soon
after the purchase Page & Son discov-
cred, or believed they had discovered, a
discrepancy in the amount of property
~bargained for, and were met by a PROPOSE
ton from Rand, Griggs & Co. to arbitrate
the matter, the decision of the a~rbitrators
to be final. The arbitrator found that
Page & Co. arc entitled to a rebate of
SOB, 900 or, in other words, that s97. 900
should be paid by Page & Co. to Rand,
Griggs & Steadman in full for the prop
erty purchased.
Thus a most important case has been
settled amicably without resorting to q
suit at law, and all parties concerned are
to be congratulated on the peaceable issue
of a contest in which so large a sum was
involved.

Hidden Hand locations, now claimed and

The company claim that they located the
Hidden Hand last summer and that their

cation for a patent will bring the matter
Of ownership 70 a decision one way or
the other. The company have ceased
active work for the season. Their Rock
creek ditch is completed, with the excep-
ton Of some fuming. For this the lum-
Der, 90. 900 feet, will be on the ground in
the next ten Gays, ready for early spring
use. Sixty-fve hundred feet have been
taken out on the Christina lake ditch.
This ditch will be five miles in length, and
run 5000 miners inches of water per sec.
ond. 1t will be heavily timbered, one
flume having a projected length of 500
feet, and a height Of seventy feet.
Some extraordinary stories are in quasi
circulation about nuggets Of surprising
size and richness having lately been found
in the Rock creek placers. 1t is hard to
get at the facts, as the reports are studi-
ously denied and discouraged by the com
pany.

Rock Springs Iaiepeadeat-There is 4
good deal Of want and distress in town,
and the charitably disposed can find
worthy subjects for their assistance by a
little investigation, 1t seems too bad that
innocent women and children should be
made to suffer while the bread winner of
the family stands ready to supply their
needs if he is but given the opportunity
to work.
Rock Springs independent-The bar
racks and officers quarters are now entirely
inclosed and the work of plastering will
probably be finished this week. They
will be very warm and comfortable for the
winter. The soldiers are talking of giving
a ball in the barracks after they are fin
ished. 1t will make a fine place for
holding a dance, and We hope the boys
will succeed in getting up something of
the kind.

Rock Springs Independent. A cowboy
in the employ of the Spur outfit came in
our office the other day and related the
following: Some time since a band OF
about $50 head of horses were driven up
on the Pinies, tributaries of Green river.
1t was pretty evident that they had been
stolen and no one would trade for them or
purchase them for some time. Finally,
however, an old timer traded for l25 head.
The strangers Immediately left. In a few
days parties came from Colorado, looking
for this very bunch of horses, which hap
pened to be in a corral near by. The men
from Colorado went into dinner. and
when they came out there was neither
hoof nor hide of the stolen stock to be
seen, and after several weeks Of diligent
search resulted in the finding of but IF
teen head. The searchers have now, so
our informant said, hired Rocky Stoner
to hunt up the property. He further
said that he regretted he could not con-
firm the hanging of Harry McMullen.

ing After Muster.


Last night was a glorious time for
Reynolds Post, G.. A.. r., in this city,
and her visitors. A special meeting was
held, and Hon. f. Il. Warren, governor
OF the territory, was mustered in as a
comrade. After the muster, which was
conducted with impressive ceremonies
before a very large attendance, Comrade
A. NJ. X. Storrie, of Philadelphia, who
stands high in the order, was presented
by Commander j.. X. Jeffrey, having
been introduced by Gen. j. w. Fisher as
a former comra1e of his in the Army of
the Potomac. Comrade Storrie delivered
a lengthy and eloquent address, and the
governor, being called on, made a pleasant
speech. The doors of the banquet room
were then thrown open and the assembled
veterans partook of a splendid lunch, the
coffee, crackers and beans not being omit
ted. After the feast the party returned
to the hall, and the evening was enliy-
ened by speeches, stories and songs, from
numerous comrades. About midnight
the enjoyable affair ended and the happy
old vets went home delighted with the
results of the evening.

A Beauty in Tears.

Annie Cole, the young woman arrested
at the instance of E. 3. Carter, for
theft, was released from custody yeater-
day afternoon, Mr.. Carter refusing to
push the prosecution. He and the girls
friends thought that 1t would only dri ,e
the girl to the bad to have her obtain any
court notoriety. 1t is pretty certain that
the young woman stole the bracelets
which were found sewed up In
her hustle. The loss of
the valuable gold medal which
has been missing for some time,
has not been traced to the girl, and Mr..
Carter is inclined to believe that the girl
did not take 1t.
"No, l don't want to talk to you news.
paper men" said Annie this morning to a
BEE man who dropped in to buzz her for
q moment. 81 wish you would go away"
Apnis is a prstty brunette, with q rather
intelligent face, and as abe raid this her
eoft black eyes were sutfused with tears.
The young lady seeing that the reporter
was inclined to be soItened
by the water treatment, yielded
enough from her original intentions to
say 81 I'M not guilty of any crime, and
that Is all there Is to 1t. Why they
should want to prosecute me is more
than l can see. l am go afraid that my
mamma will hear Of this, and
oh, my what will she
say?" And Annie buried her face in o
dsinty handkerchief, and gave away to
unrepressed emotion.
The girl has been In Omaha about
three months, and came from the Bluffs,
where she has friends.

SEARCHING FOR SMITH.
Another One of tho Numerous Smith
Family Missing-bta Wife
en- His Track,

A lady holding q babe In her arms,
with a h~alf.mournful, half.mad express
sion on her face, attracted the attention
of q BEE reporter yesterday afternoon.
Her manner indicated that something
was up, and the newspaper mar scented
n Item. The lady was standing at the
entrance of the Women's Christian Aid
association, when the scribe boldly faced
her and preferred her his services In
helping her out of any trouble che might
be In, 90 for as he could. Pressed to tell
her story, the lady made a statement,
subst iDtially as follows:
Her name Ia Mrs. John M. Smith.
For three years she has lived with her
husband In Bloomington, Illinois. On
the 4th day of August she babe him
goodbye, he ostensibly boarding the train
TO C me to Omaha where he intended to
buy q restaurant, He had $500 on hi,
pers IL, and thought he could soon estab.
ltsh himself in business, 80 as to bs able
to send for hls wife and child. Mrs.
Smith has rot heard q word from him
since, and she hos come to Omaha to
look bin up. Mrs. Smith is perfectly In
the dark as to what has become Of her
spouse. She Is 10th to believe that he
has deserted her, and does not
like to entertain the idea that he has
come to gslef.
Mis-. Smith describes her husband as q
man five feet six iuche, in height, with
dark hair and q light brown mustache.
He has o peculiar scar on his forehead.
She has bsen to all the hotels and
restaurants in her search, but has failed
to discover any traces of her Lost hus-
band. The police have been informed OF
tho matter, but have 40 yet failed to dis
cover any clue to the mans where.

S~TONECUTTERs' STRIKE,
Drexel & FOIl's Men Go Gu For q
Day-Ehe B. 81 M. Building
the Cause of the Trouble.

Thursday the stonecutters en-
ployed by Drexel & Foil, the Jones
street contractors, dropped their tools
and left the yards on account of an order
to strike from the stone-cutter's union.
The B. 81. M. headquarters was the
cause of the trouble. 1t seems that
Drexel g. Foil by an order of the archi-
tec!s, had taken some of the stone which
was to be put in the B. & M. building to
their yard to be dressed. When the
men were about t, commence the work
of drs sslng, they discovered the marks of
convict labor at Joliet and they refus I'd
to touch the job. The cause of this
action Is a clause In the constitution of
the stone cutters union which reads rs
follows:
''This association will not sanction the
introduction of cut stone from any state
prison, nor will any of its membsrs be
allo wed to work, fit, or 10 any way con-
tribute to Its introduction"
The men were out all day Thursday,
and stniRht they held a meeting at
Turner hall. Messrs. Drexel & Fol
made a statement to the men that they
supposed, from accounts published, that
tho trouble with the b. & NJ. building
had bsen settled, and that 1t was not
their intention to ~sntagonizs the
union IN this point. They also agrsed
that in the future they would have moth
log to do With any contract or work in
which material producsd by convict labor
WAS employed. After hearing the state
msnts of the firm, the st~onecItters con-
cludsd 10 return to work, ard yesterday
morning they were all in their places.
Members of the union say there l.
liable to be trouble at any minute on the
Darlington s. Missouri building. :
