stand we called upon hardware firm
that has lately moved from Billings to
Miles City and asked how the prices
OF hardware here compared with the
same at Billings. The representative
Of the house said: prices are great
deal lower here than they are ut Bill
ings. Barb wire, for instance, is
&c per pound cheaper here, and all
through the hardware stock there Is
a difference in favor Of the purchaser
that will average fully Is per cent"
The gentleman stated that the profits
are not AS large here but that the house
already notes large increase in sales.
Such illustrations AS this bold good
throughout the various lines ofbusiness

in which Miles City presents fresher

A Possible Murder.

Brief mention was made yesterday
of the drowning of u man at Menden-
halls camp on the. Porcupine. The
name of the dead man was not given,
nor any of the particulars Of his death
save that he was drowned. Dr. Redd
presumiug it to be case of accidental
drowning and that there were wit
nesses present did not deem his pres
ence necessary and notified Mr.. Men
denhall that any justice Of the peace
could hold an inquest and interrogate
enough witnesses TO establish the fact
Of the drowning for the satisfaction of
absent friends. Ii seems, however
that there are indications that the man
came to his death by foul means and
that his body was thrown into the
| river to hide the evidence of the
crime. The name Of the dead man is
Richard Nolkert, and Mendenhalrs
camp is part of the Yellowstone
roundup that was here a few days
ago, SO il is presumed that Volkert
was COW boy on that roundup. Yes
terday, whether before or after the re-
ceipt OF DIR. Redd's telegram il is not
known, Nolkert's body was taken 10
Glendive where he was known and
had friends. To-day DIR. Redd receiv-
ed two kilograms, one from DIR. Dun
can, coroner of Dawson county, relst.
ing the circumstances of Volkert's
death at Forsyth on Thursday; that
the body had been shipped to Glen.
dive; that from bruises on the head
and neck a suspicion of foul play wa:
warranted and suggesting that DR.
Redd come there and hold an inquest
~ be had not alredy done so. The
other telegram was from Robert
Pontet and was rs follows: at is the
opinion of Drs. Duncan and Hogg
that Dick Volkert has been foully
dealt with. He has a wound five
inches long over the left eye, another
on the forehead and an abrasion
around the neck. AS there may be
something more serious in the case
than was indicated by the first infor-
nation, DIR. Redd had the body re-
turned from Glendive here
last night. The return of the
body here was deemed necessa AIRY
from the fact Of there being nice
question as 10 whether the coroner
of Custer county could hold an in
quest on the remains while in Dawson
county. The deceased unquestionably
met his death in Custer county, and II
any investigation was required it was
proper that they should be conducted
In this county.
In answer TO telegram last night
DIR. Redd found that an inquest had
been held at Forsyth by Justice Ben
nett and a verdict Of accidental
drowning was rendered. 1t was then
that the body was sent to Glendiv'
where Volkert was known to hav,
friends. When the body was re
turned here from Glendive this morn
ing DIR. Redd sent 1t back to Forsyth
for further investigation into tn
causes Of the mans death.

Special Telegram TO the YELLOWSTONE JOURNAL
BILLINGS, June Is, lSS5-The west
bound passenger train that left here
this morning at $50 o'clock ran into q
bunch of cattle that were browsing
along the track about eight miles wesl
of here, deraiIiDg the engine. and the
mail, baggage and express cars. One
Of the army OF tramps who was enjoy
ing free but rather perilous ride on
the brake beam Of one OF the cars
named, was severely injured, but no
other casualties are recorded. IL was
very narrow escape from what
would have been serious accident al
almost any other portion OF the road.
The wreck is mt bad one and Will
quickly be removed hy the wrecking

cident were converted into fresh beef
In very short order. They were In

THE PALACE.
A Suit for Possession and Rent.


In the Third District Court yesterday
suit was ms tituted by Herman Bri.
sacher against o. "a. Riggs. Kate Shear
and Peter Shear, to recover possession
of certain premises at 273 and 275 Main
street. The property embraces the
second and third stories, the stores and
the basement of that building, and for
the sum of 1912, claimed as rent for said
premises. From the complaint filed in
the case, it appears that the owner of
the Palace building, on the corner of
Third South and Main streets, rented or
leased the hotel to Riggs and Shear for
1925 month for the first twelvemonth
and 1915 per month for the four years
following, the payments to be made in
advance. The defendants were given
until Monday to plead.
