THE RACE HORSE CASE.
A Wyoming Girl Writes of the Su-
preme Court.

Miss Hattie Slack, who is visiting In
| Washington, writes as follows to her
father, the editor of the Sun-Leader:
Wednesday noon Mrs. Warren and
l went up to the supreme court Of the
United States to hear the case Of the
Indian. Race Horse, who was arrested
for killing elk in Wyoming. 1t was
very interesting to study the faces Of
the venerable justices. MIR. G. N.
Brown, who was there. told me who
each one vas The cases we were in
terested in had not yet begun, so we
went into the senate galler.' and heard
Senator Hoar speak against recogniz-
ing Cuba. The sarcasm which he
made use of at times was very anus
ing. Once John Sherman interrupted
him, whereupon he exclaimed: THAT
is just exactly what l have been talk
ing about" Then added, II hope 1
have not allowed any impatience to
creep into my tones"
We were sem word that the Wyo-
ming cases had been called, SO return
ed to the court room and heard Mr..
Fowler's argument and the reply Of
the United States attorney, General
Harmon. He made a good argument,
but it made the Wyoming people very
tired to hear him speak of the poor
Indians" Westerners are not so SEN
timental on that subject. There were
10 Wyoming people in the court room,
Senator Clark, Mr.. Ausherman, Mr..
Mondell, Mr.. Brown, Mr.. Davis Of
Rawlins, Mr.. L. C. Baker and Attor-
neys Fowler and Van Devanter. Also
Mrs. Warren and myself.
The court adjourned before the at
torney general had quite finished
speaking, &c Mrs. Warren and 1 went
up again Thursday noon to hear Mr..
Van Devanter's argument. It was
very strong and the Justices were so
interested that they let him speak 10
minutes over the time allotted to him.
l can hardly walt to hear the Judges
decision.
When the time raj up Mr.. Mondell
invited Mrs. Warren and / to take
lunch with him at the senate cafe.
We then visited the senate and heard
Senator Pritchard speak on the Du-
pont case and . portion Of Sherman's
reply to Hoar. I love to visit the SEN
ate, but the house Ii 20 d~isorderiy that
I cannot follow the proceedings in
there very we'll.
