TROUBLE BREWING,
War Imminent Between CattIemen
and Rustlers.

war Imminent Between CattIemen
and Rustlers.
CHAMBERLAIN IS. d., May 23.-The
present trouble between cattlemen and
| cattle rustlers north of the Black Hills
bids fair to result in open warfare. The
other day small stockman named Or
Iando Giles was found dead near his ranch
on North Grand River.
Giles owned a small bunch of cattle.
but he had been hauling dressed beef to
Dickinson all the winter without ma
ter1aIly diminishing his own. There were
many cowboys who were convinced that
he was killing other peoples cattle. and
this belief was the cause of his sudden
taking of. The authorities were re-
quested to investigate the murder, but
they were intimidated by rough charac-
ters and no arrests have been made.
Scouts are on the range every day, and
no one can ride out without seeing a
horseman on a hill quietly taking in the
country with the aid of a telescope.
Nothing escapes their vision, and it
would be impossible for the stockmen to
get a crowd together to clean out the
rustlers, without attracting their atten-
ton.
The rustlers say they will not leave, al
though notice have been served on them
to depart. The natural consequence is
that war may be the outcome of the
murder of Giles. The cattlemen are de-
termined to break up the rustlers, who
are, on the other hand, equally deter
mined to stay.

in the Russian Government Minister
Wltte, a man Of strong character, has
adopted quite a different attitude from
his predecessors, and has gained the
Czar's confidence until practically he has
the reins of government in his own
hands. Witte is now aiming to lessen the
Cars interference in the Government by
encouraging him in his absence from the
capital, and, as part of his plan, proposed
to build palace at Belitskana Pushta, in
the forest of GrodnO, at a cost of three
million roubles. his own Department of
Finance finding the money. The Czar is
delighted with the new palace, and at the
knowledge that the finances were in
position to make the expenditure pos
sible. 1t will be interesting to watch the
progress of the project, as it may prove a
step in constitutional direction.

The Tribunal Of Arbitration Resumes
Its Sessions.
PARIS, May 23.-The Behring Sea Tri-
bunal of Arbitration resumed it's session
to-day. Sir Charles Russell argued that
unless the United States owned individ-
ual seals it was absurd to claim property
in herd. He contended that Mr.. Carter
in admitting that the United States
granted to Indians the right of seal catch
ing, had given away the whole legal pro-
position. He also argued that the doc
trIne Of reCertendi, as establishing own
ership, never applied TO migratory ami
mails. Sir Charles delivered a sarcastic
allusion to Carter's argument about the
origin of property in the laws of nature.
This allusion evoked warm protest
from Carter, who said it was a misrepre-
sentation of his argument.
