the Independent. lit is believed among
the Montana men here, upon what they
regard as thoroughly good evidence, that
there is nothing in the story that Gov.
Leslie has made deal whereby he is TO
remain In Office till the territory Ia sd-
mitted into the union, but on the contrary
agoyernor will be nominated inside OF a
week, but that the nominee will not be any
one OF the gentlemen who have been before
the public as candidates. IL is predicted
that b. Y. White, OF Dillon, or James IL.
Mills, Of Deer Lodge, will get the nomina-
ton. Nothing is apparently known In re.
gard TO the collectorship and other offices
and the understanding Is that Delegate
Carter wants to have the appointments
equitably distributed among the different
sections of the territory and will therefore
keep all other appointments back until q
governor has been nominated.

WASHINGTON, March 20.-It has been
discovered that the large l6foot bending

meet the requirements of the contract In
that the rolls are made to be adjusted by
hand instead OF by steam power. The con-
tractors are now altering the rolls 10 make
them conform to the terms Of the contract
After the rolls were purchased II was also
found their capacity was limited To I6foot
plates, while the bottom plates OF the
Texas are twenty feet IN length. This
mistake was made In the Norfolk navy
yard. but will not materially delay the
construction Of the Texas, as the rolls can
be used for large range OF work and new
20 foot rolls can be procured by the time
they are needed, which will be at least six

NEW MEXICAN CATTLE.
No Diseases In the Herds Since the Quar-
antine Law Was Passed.

ALBUQUERQUE, March 20.-The cattle
sanitary board Of this territory reports that
since the enactment OF the quarantine law
in 1887 against diseased cattle being ad-
mitted, no case Of bovine disease, and par
ticularly Texas fever, has appeared among
the herds. Cattle are everywhere in q
healthy condition and are going into the
spring and summer seasons in most excel
lent fix. The perfect health Of the bovine
stock OF New Mexico during the time the
quarantine law has been in operation
proves oonclusively that Texas fever does
not originate within the borders Of this ter
ritory, and the law against its possible in
PRODUCTION Is so effectively administered
that il cannot be brought here. Northern
buyers of young stock for maturing pur-
poses are In the territory contracting for
herds, which are permitted 10 pass quaran-
tine lines north without inspection.
