Grazing Matter.

Omaha, July 21.-A special to the Bee
from Rawlns, Wyo., says:
The tilt between the cattle and sheep
men in Routt county, Colorado, is not
settled by any means. The cattlemen are
determined to prevent sheep from graz
ing through the summer range in the
mountain foothills, while the sheepmen
are just as determined TO occupy their old
ranges. Several of the largest sheep own
ers. being among the old settlers in the
county, claim their most bitter enemies
among the cattlemen are a lot of new
Corners who are small farmers I'D own
but a few cattle, many having only
couple of mich COWS. The press represen-
tative was informed today by a respect
able man who had just come in from the
south that the cattlemen have staked a
deadline and threatened to kill all sheen
that pass beyond, and they are patrolling
the country. Sheepmen say they will oc-
cupy their former summer ranges, peace
ably if possible, forcibly If driven 10 it.
Both parties are said to be arming A
conflict is expected at any time, unless
there are concessions on both sides.

ROMAN MURDER CASE TOOK A TURN
The wire Dismissed and Crnmp Held as
the Neal Assassin


Boise, July 2O.-The mysterious Roman
murder case in Canyon county took an
other turn today. Mrs. Roman, who had
been arrested on a charge OF killing her
husband, was released, and Matt Crump.
the principal witness against her, was at
once placed under arrest for the crime.
Thomas Roman whose home was at
Lower Boise, was called out of his house
on the night of May 10 and killed with
an ak. A noise was made on the corral
fence as though the stock were entangled
in the wire. Roman went down to see
what was the matter, and the next morn
ing the body was found in a clover field
1t was at first thought that a tramp had
done the deed. After time the public
began to suspect Matt Crump, the hired
man, while there was also some suspi-
cion directed against Mrs. Roman. Fin
ally Crump was arrested on complaint Of
Detective Eldridge. While usder arrest
he made sworn statement that Mrs. Ro-
nan committed the deed, that he saw
her do it as he rode up after trip to
Caldwell. Eldridge claimed that Crump
had confessed that ne had killed Roman.
Crump was released of the charge, but
held as witness.
Some weeks later Mrs. Roman was ar
rested, and her preliminary hearing oc-
Cured today. Crump was placed on the
stand instead. however. proving a good
Witness for the state.
He apparently surprised the prosecution
by disclaiming any knowledge of the muir
der. He claimed to have spent the night
of thu murder at the home of Russell
Smith, near Caldwell His attention was
called to the confession made at Payette,
in which he declared that he saw Mrs.
Roman kill her husband with an ak
Crump admitted having made and signed
the statement, but denied having sworn
to it, and also declared it was made I'M
der duress, and while he was in fear of
death at the hands of Eldridge, the al
legged detective. He persisted in this ex-
PLANTATION of his confession.
After repeated questions and denials Of
a similar character Mr.. Smith, for the
prosecution, arose and caused a sensation
by moving that the defendant be dismiss
ed and that Crump be held until a COM
plant could be lodged against him for the
murder and a warrant be issued. The court
granted the motion, and Crump was i'm
mediately arrested and the date for his
examination set for Monday, July %.

The great overproduction in all branches

threatened by a new sort Of retail Ruc-

ments are scattered broadcast to inform
the public OF the sale OF masses of So
called auction wares. In reality, though
these are old stock wares which it is de-
sired to dispose of at any price, and they
are in some cases worthless wares man

France, Belgium and Germany drastic
measures have been adopted against these
swindlers. In all these cities the estab-

cessful. Their united strength has sue
ceeded in keeping the auction shop mer-
chants within certain bounds and regula-

tect honest mercantile houses and the
purchasing public.
The circular closes with an earnest APP
peal to every honest business man to Join
the Luxembourg Merchants Union.

JOE N0SKA is The SLAYER
Used Double Barreled Shotgun, and
Killed Mother, Father and
Their Friends.

New Orleans, July q. Last Friday
night on the Terre Haute plantation
III ST. 5oh1'S parish, a terrible butch
cry of huHRR beings took place. While
Rosario Git~daR9 and his family were
seated at the supper table Joe Noska
walked up to me door and ~ 0sinps
double-barrelled shotgun, fired. NJ
Giordano fell to the floor a corpse and
the bullets that did not go through her
went through both legs of a 4-months-
old infant she held in her arms. Gior-
dano, fearing that the tender babe was
killed in the fall, sprang forward to
clasp it and the assassin then fired
again. The buckshot entered his groin
and leg. Mary Giordano, a 10-year-old
little girl, on seeing her mother fall,
ran forward and received a portion of
the load of buckshot that struck her
father. The shot entered her abdo-
men. literally tearing it to pieces At
the same time little Nicolina fell to the
floor wounded through the head. The
assassin, Joe Noska, did not move from
the spot, but when he saw Beneditto
Giordano, a nephew of the dead wo-
man, and Charlie Columbano coming
toward him he coolly placed two fresh
shells in his gun and waited until they
got close to him. Then he raised the
gun and fired both barrels, the two men
falling to the ground dead. Then the
murderer, throwing his gun over his
shoulder, made his escape to the woods.
When the citizens ascertained the ex-
tent of the deed they organized a posse
and led by the sheriff attempted to
capture the assassin. The wounded
were brought to the charity hospital in
this city. They are Rosario Giordano,
the unfortunate head of the family,
aged 81 years, shot in the left thigh:
Mary Giordano, aged 10 years, shot in
the abdomen, the bullets perforatine
the bladder and intestines; Nicolani
Giordano, aged years, shot in the cor
ner of the eye, the bullet penetrating
his skull; Joseph Giordano, aged a
months, a hole in both legs and the
head.
The two little Giordano girls at the
hospital will die. The father and A.
months-old baby will recover. The as
sassin has not yet been captured.
Mr. Giordano says he does not know
how he had offended Noska, who was
laborer on the place, except that on
one occasion the overseer, who is a
friend of his, told the man to do some

living on the plantation with his fam
lily for the past few years. Last Sep
TENDER Noska Cor Genaste) came from
! New York to work on the place. He
is married man and lived with his
wife and two children on the planta-
ton. The assassin and wounded man
had never had any trouble whatever
and no i'll feeling as far as the wounded
man knows existed between them.

New York, July 21.-When the Vigilant

TO presume that the sail area added by
the changes will assist not a little in send

than she went yesterday. Yachtmen are
hoping that tomorrow's event will take
place in a stiff breeze, If not a blow, for
nobody knows definitely what the Defen-

that he can still give the new boat a close

never before was a center board beaten
by keel. and declare that there must
be further test before they will confess
defeat.
