BannOcI<s Held Liable
The supreme court, in the opinion of
justice w mite, today passed upon the right
of the Rannock Indians to kill game in
the unsettled lands of their former reser-
Vatlons in Wyoming, holding that under
their treaty the Indians could not kin
game in violation of the game laws of the
state
The title of the case was ]. H. Ward
sheriff, Us. Race Horse the latter being
the indian who surrendered himself to
the Wyoming state authorities for the
purpose of testing the matter. The opin-
ion Of the United States supreme court
for Wyoming, by which Race Horse was
released from custody, was reversed, and
1t was ordered that the Indian be COM
manded to the custody of the state au-
thorities.
Against the u. l..
Chief Justice Fuller today handed down
the opinion of the supreme court in the
case OF the Union Pacific Railroad Com
pany VS.. the Chicago, Rock Island & Pa
Citic, and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St
Paul companies, involving contracts be-
tween the two last named companies and
the Union Pacific as to the right to use
the tracks of the bridge across the Mis-
souri, river al Omaha and which the Union
Pacific sought to have inVaiidated on the
ground that the contract was made by the
officials of branch line. One Of the pOinrs
raised was that it was not within the cor
porate powers Of the parties to make
such contracts but the chief justice said
on this point that there was'mOthiug in the
charter Of the Union Pacific company that
prohibits such an arrangement as the one
in controversy by implication, and as by
1t the public interest was subserved, that
company reached its own lines by a short
er route and accommodated its own
through freight and travel, We are not
prepared to hold that it was invalid"
The opinion also held that the contracts
were duly authorized by the Union Pacific
and they were such contracts as the court
of equity can specifically enforce, thus at
hrming the decree of the circuit court Of
appeals for the Eighth district on ali
points. the decision being against the
Union Pacific.

origin OF 'he storm.
The storm originated near the town OF
Ahkeny, % miles north or Des MONIES, AS
near as can be ascertained from those who
saw the sight two clouds one in the
northwest and one from the southwest,
met, and then dropped down on the earth
and wrought their havoc on all that was
loose and fast. The storm moved north
eastward. Near the town Of Bondurant it
killed its first victims, the members of the
Bailey family. The storm was seen from
town to Santiago. Along the course
fences, buildings, crops and trees were
completely destroyed
Those who fed to caves were invariably
saved but so sudden was the approach
of the storm that many were unable
to find that shelter, though the caves
were only a few rods away from them
Passing inward the storm struck Val
eria. The railroad bridge on the Chicago
Great Western was the first object it
wrestle1 with. The bridge was complete
" demolished and the rails were twisted
and bent out of shape The town was
almost completely ruined The buildings
were demolished when they stood in the
full force of the storm and those which
stood along the edges of the storm were
moved and twisted and in other ways in
jured
