BADLY CUT BY A COWBOY

Scrape.
John Smith Inflicts Dangerous
Wounds on Cyrus Stone,
Both Cowpunc chers.
A Town That Is Calming an Unenviable
Notoristy Escape of tho Red
Lodge Homicide.

BILLINGS, Dec. 1l.-ESpecial. The Ga
zette has the following story of another
cutting scrape at saltwater: IF. iday night
last another affray took place at Saltwater,
resulting from poker game. John Smith,
one OF the discharged cowpunohers OF the
'79" outfit, and Cyrus Stone, recent en-
ploye Of Ed. Cardwsll's. set into little
game of poker and Stone was Gseced Of all
the money he had-hi, wages for the sum-
mer's work, about $lbO. The game broke
up and later Smith met Stone in Lavell's
hotel and accused him of stealing S5 off the
table. Stone denied the charge and they
both adjourned to the street, whereupon
Smith pulled big bladed pocket knife and
commenced carving Stone. The blade en-
tered stones abdomen, almost disembow-
cling him. Smith struck out for the hills
Oh q borrowed horse and DR.. Moore was
sent for to attend Stone, who is seriously
injured bu. may recover. Under Sheriff
Ramsey was at Grey Cliff when
he heard of the afTray and at once tele-
graphed the sheriff here the facts of the
case that he might have u warrant issued.
That being done the under sheriff received
the warrant and went down to saltwater
Saturday, but Smith had 40 many friends
in that community that after fruitless
search the under sheriff reluctantly gave up
the chase. He is of the opinion that his
alleged informants at Saltwater purposely
led him astray and is much vexed thereat.
The unenviable reputation that Saltwater
is gaining as lawless frontier town, is en-
hanced by the aid and comfort covertly ex-
tended to bad men who have become fugi-
tives from Justice. And the costs to the
county continue to pile up while outlawry
IN defended and gun plays and cutting af-
trays are at O premium"
