Hague, OF the United States geological sur:

mtttee OF the house In favor Of the senate

Nj. Hague protested against granting any

GREETING the necessity Of cutting on any Of
the northern territory admitted the nsces-
sity OF some means for reaching Cooke
City BY rail. An amendment proposed de-
fines the northern boundary a. follows:
Making 1t coincide with the boundary Of
Wyoming and Montana to It's point OF
intersection with the north bank
Of the Yellowstone river; thence
along said north bank to ifs junction with
the Lamar river, sometimes called the eat
fork OF the Yellowstone; thence along the
north bank Of said river to ito intersection
with the parallel Of a deg. 50 min; thence
due east along said parallel to the meridian
OF 100 deg. 80 min. west longitude; thence
due south along said meridian" This
would allow a right.of-way for railwaS
purposes from Cinnebsr to Cooke City,
and would at the same time permit the CON.
struction OF any railway up tho Clark's
Fork Of the Yellowstone river from the
east. The area cut OF is only a small cor
ner in the northeast of the park. The
northern boundary east Of the Lamar
river would run along the ridge be-
tween Soda butte aud Cache creeks,
leaving Soda butte canon entirely outside

tee. with the possible exception Of Mr..
Holman, is favorably inclined toward the
amendment.
