THE BUFFALO FATED.
There Appears to be no Way to Prevent
the Slaughter at Yellowstone Park.

There Appears to be no Way to Prevent
the Slaughter at Yellowstone Park.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., Jan. 3.-The case
of the United States against William
Courtney, charged with killing eight
buffalo in the Yellowstone park, has
been dismissed by United States Com
missioner Meldrum of Mammoth Hot
Springs.
At Courtney's trial he and four wit
nesses testified that the buffalo were
killed in Idaho and the commissioner
having no jurisdiction beyond the park
limits Courtney was discharged, There
is no law in Idaho forbidding the killing
of buffalo and as hunters OF that state
kill the park animals when they cross
the line The efforts to preserve the park
herd are rendered useless.

 William NeilPs Death.

R. E. Jones, coroner of this county, was kept busy yesterday. Early in the morn ing Mr. Walter W. Stowe, a man about 45 years of age, who has been in the city about week, was found dead in his room, Mo- 2S, in the Acme hotel, Hewlett block, corner First avenue and Twentieth street. It appears that he had been ail- ing for two or three days. At an early hour he left his room to get a cup of cofA fee and soon returned to the hotel, One of the clerks entered his room after o'clock to see how he was and found him dead in a chair. The coroner was noti- fled and an examination by Dr. J. s. GilI lespy, county physician, was made, and a certificate given the coroner that death was caused by heart failure.
 Deceased was employed by L. V. Clark Se O., in the insurance business, and was Said to be good man for work in that line.
 Col. Clark made diligent inquiry by wire to ascertain whether he had any relatives living, but no information was received, and the body will be buried either today or tomorrow at Oak Hill cemetery. Under the circumstances, no jury of Inquest was deemed necessary by the coroner.
 The coroner's jury empannelled last Saturday to investigate the cireum- stances attending the death of MT. Will Jam Neal Of Wylam, whose body was found lying near the Kansas City, Mem phis and Birmingham railroad track at Hawkins switch, after examining about twenty witnesses, rendered the following verdict near noon yesterday:

Jones, coroner of said county, to investigate the circumstances under which William Neal came to his death, near Hawkins station, on the side of the Kansas City railroad, on the right side, eight feet going west, after thoroughly Investigating circum- stances, we believe he, William Neal, came ot his death on the night of the S0th of October, 1896, by a blow from some blunt instrument on the head. We, the jury believe he came to his death by be- ing struck by Kansas City train un- der circumstances unknown to the jury. This Nov. 6, 1896.

WATSON WILL SULK.
The POpulfst Candidate VIII Take
D,pr I'm.

The POpulfst Candidate Will Take No
Further Part in the Campaign.
A special dispatch to the Philadelphia
Press from Atlanta. Ga, says: Tom Wat
son has announced his definite conclusion
with regard to the national campaign W hich
IS from now until the day of election he
will do nothing whatever. All efforts OF
the democratic leaders to induce him 10
take off his coet for Bryan and urge the
election Of the silver candidate without
any reference to the vice presidency have
failed.
He will not withdraw from the ticket.
He is at his home in Thomson, and pro-
poses to stay there until the election.
With iegard to the withdrawal of Watson
electors In Georgia, he refuses to talk. But
Committeeman Reed. who talks for him,
says that the withdrawal did not, as re-
ported, have the sanction of Watson and
Washburn. Beyond this he will not dis
cuSs; but on the surface ii looks like a di-
rect slap at the populist vice presidential
nominee.
The fusion between the populists and re-
publican candidates for Congress seems to
be rapidly perfecting itself. The efforts to
get the populist candidates out of the race
in the second district have failed and in
the fourth district the republican candidate
also refuses to come down, but in the 9TH
erS there will be unQueStionably an under
standing. In the seventh district McGar-
rity, the populist, and Rankin, the indep PEN
cent, have come out in the interest of Mas
sey, the republican nominee against Judge
Maddox. The democrats claim that it will
be impossible to make the rank and file of
the populists vote for the republicans, but
the populist leaders take different view
of 1t.
The latest announcement with regard TO
national politics in this state is a surprise
Judge Hines, who ran for governor on the
populist ticket two years ago, announces
that he will support Bryan.
