Killed His Man.

Billings, Mont, Dec, 3l.-Alex
Mcdonald, a ferry operator on the
Big Horn river, and William Bishop
a tenant on McDonald's farm in Big
Horn basin, Big Horn county, Wyo-
ming, got into a dispute and as a
result Bishop lies cold in death.
Both men we're armed and Bishop
snapped a shotgun at McDonald, the
piece missing fire, when Mcdonald
beat his assailant to death with a
six shooter. He gave himself up to
the authorities. Nc Donald is an
old-timer in Eastern Montana, COM
ing from the Black Hills in 1882,
and has a large acquaintance in this
section of the country. He is a
single man, Bishop leavesa family,
and was regarded as an in offensive
citizen.

Selling Stolen Cattle.

J.. T. Craig, manager Of the WV
cattle outfit, on the Belle Fourche
river, also commissioner for the
stock association, and w. E. Cathey
stock Inspector, left Deadwood
yesterday after having located six
teen head of beef cattle that had
been stolen. The cattle had been
driven in and sold to Gus Kellar, Of
this city and Nj. Jordan of Lead,
for S. a head. The men who sold
them became suspicious and left for
unknown parts before getting their
money. Messrs. Craig and Cathey
we're notified, and arrived in time
to recover all the cattle. They are
branded with a 'chicEen track"
and it is not known who the owner
is, but Mr.. Cathey says he does not
belong to the association, and is
evidently a small stock owner. The
men who sold them gave their name
but it is believed they were fictiti Gus
and intended to mislead.-Pioneer.

about 10 o'elocd, and from that time
until daylight shots could be4henrd
in that direction as though a light
skirmish was in progress. No one
knows who has possession of the
mine, for it will take litigation to
settle it. The quarrel did not end
Yesterday morning, for it seems
that they got at it again last night.
Then the police took the matter IN
hand. The end is not yet. Besides
the contest over the St. John mine
there are several reported in the
Strawberry district. 1t could not

The Country's Corn Crop.

Computations by the Price Cur
rent covering a series Of years show
that this years production of corr
in the western and northwestern
states exceeds any previous year,
besides the augmentation of supplies
by the surplus from the preceding
large crop. The calculation recog-
nizes 1926. 600, 900 as the approx
mate production, with Zoo, 900, 900
for the western and northwestern
states compared with an annual
average of 1852, 600, 600 for ten
years previously the production this
season in the south being 430, 600, 900
against an annual average OF 495, 600
600 for the previous ten years.
This condition of large supplies of
corr in western regions serves to
offset and owe rcome the influence Of
the southern deficiency, which is
not 80 great in comparison with the
average of that region as for the
crop of 1895, which was without
precedent in extent for that region.
At an allowance of 1925, 000, 900
bushels for this years r crop the
comparison is with 1877, 600, 600 as
the annual average for ten years
previously, or an increase of % per
cent. The average exports have
been So, 600, 900 leaving abont 1885,
0OO, 900 as the home supply. The
mi!dness of the present season has
had the effect to modify .reduire-
ments in leading operations.
