A COLORADO SCHEME
Trying to Divert Water from the
Laramie River.
The Grand River Scheme Simply a
Blind.
An Interstate Question Which
May Cause Trouble.

A Fort Collins dispatch, the first para
graph of which read, there is a gigantic
scheme t. bring the water of the Grand
river, on the western slope, to this side of
the range" appeared in THE LEADER of
Thursday. 1t was stated in the dispatch
that a company had begun active prepa-
rstions to tunnel through the mountains
and tap the river, and that eleven miles
above Fort Collins a large natural reser-
voir had been discovered where several
million gallons of water could be stored.
Later dispatches were to the effect that
the people of Grand river would not allow
the water of that stream to be diverted,
and injunction suits were talked of. The
latest information is to the effect that the
Laramie river and not the Grand was to
be the source of supply. and now the
schemers are likely to get into trouble
with Wyoming.
State Engineer Mead has received an
anonymous communication signed "WYo-
ming Taxpayer" which throws some
hight on the subject. A letter from Col.
Downey of Laramie enclosing a clipping
from the Boomerang was also received,
asking if anything could be done to pre-
vent water being taken from the Wyo-
ming stream. wyoming Taxpayer
enclosed a clipping of the dispatch
mentioned, and says change Grand to
Laramie and you will get an idea of what
the company is doing" He says the
Grand river business is a blind. That
not more than a fourth as much water
could be taken from the Grand as from
the Laramie in dry periods and that the
intention was to tap the Laramie.
The Laramie paper says that N. K.
Boswell, a Big Laramie ranchman,
brought the news that seventy. five men
were at work on the canal. The ditch
was to be 40 feet wide and s miles long,
and the water turned into Chambers lake
a natural reservoir OF the Cache lie Pordre.
As president of the state board of con-
troll. Prof. Mead has been requested to
take some action in the matter, and the
probabilities are that the law on the sub
iect will be tested.

LEGAL CONTEST IMMINENT
Shippers, Without Clear Title, Itching
for the Proceeds of Sale

Secretary Jisms Of the stock commission
Yesterday receipted for 1854 80 which is
the largest amount yet received from the
sale of strays for one day. The money
continues TO come in and Mr.. Iiams says
the ''rustlers' continue to grow more
desperate. They don't know what to do
with their cattle. 1t is useless for them
to ship to Omaha or Chicago for the
cattle are Immediately seized by the
inspectors. They cannot eat all Of their
cattle and to sell to local butchers and
dealers is more or less of a risk and hard
to do. A bunch of thirty nine head of
cattle recently shipped to market
were seized by the inspectors.
Moore, the shipper, wants the money
for the stock, but the only proof OF owner
ship so far furnished is a t~our-yesr-old bill
of sale of four mavericks. Mr.. Ijams
says the increase Of the four mavericks, il
they had all been she cattle, would not
amount to thirty-nine head, and he does
not think the commission will give up the
money unless better evidence of owner
ship be produced.
The secretary says that when strays
which rightfully belong to a poor but
honest man, but have been shipped by the
rustlers, or mistake. and have been seized,
an effort Is made to locate the owner and
get his money to him as soon as possible.
But men with a reputation for stealing
cattle must prove their property before
any money will be paid yer by the COM
mission. The result, Mr.. Ijams says, is
that the rustlers swear vengeance and
seem to think that he is personally re-
sponsible for the work Of the commission.
A friend writes him from Buffalo that
THE r~ustlers swear vengeance against you
for taking their cattle" Another Buffalo
man writes that three Buffalo men who
are OF good standing, and nine ~rustlers
''held a meeting last night and [ think
employed Burritt to fight the commits
sion."
The three men who are not rustlers are
interested because stock purchased by
them from rustlers and shipped to market
were seized by the inspectors. Two of the
men are Fote and Smith, and the lawyer
employed, G. H. Burritt, is one of the
best in Buffalo.

LUCKY
Two Typos Return from a Successful
Prospecting Trim.

Jay F. Manning and M. T. Benham
have returned from a three weeks trip to
Hartville and vicinity. About sixty miles
northwest of here in the Laramie Black
BILLS they located five mining claims.
Leads were found showing Hplendid look
ing specimens which are supposed to be
ruby silver. Manning is a printer-pros-
pector and Benham is q prospector- printer.
Both had worked on The LEADER for
some time before starting on their trip.
They returned yesterday and Manning,
pulling the beautiful specimens from his
pocket, said: We've got the stuff and
enough for the rest of our natural lives"
Mr.. Benham says the mineral carries
iron, lead and traces ofruby silver, which
has never before been discovered in any
of the Wyoming lodges. and runs in a
good live quality of quartz. There has
not been enough work lone to ascertain
the extent of the vein. but he returns

ROBBER RILEY.
How He Was Captured in Omaha.

John Riley, the man who robbed the
Evanston postofice, was brought to Chey-
enne yesterday by United States Marshal
Slaughter and turned over to Deputy
Carr. Riley was caught in a singular
manner in Omaha. Almost as Don as he
arrived there he went into a pawn shop,
and unrolling his package of truck tried
to dispose of it. Among other things
were the $l1s in postage stamps stoler
from the Evanston office. A detective
IN citizens dress happened to be in the
pawn shop behind a screen door and at
once nabbed Riley.
