Six Ute Indians Slain in Battle
Against Game Wardens.

A desperate battle between 40 Ute In
dams and Game Warden Wilcox and 10
deputies took place on Lower Bear River,
Routt county, Col, Oct. "a and at its con-
clusion five bucks were dead and many
were injured, one mortally. The Indians
were killing deer and sending their hides to
their reservation. Upon their refusal to
stop killing deer Warden Wilcox arrested
them and attempted to take them on
horseback before justice, but as soon as
they were put on horses they would
slide off. Finally Wilcox ordered lariat
ropes and was to tie them to horses. AL
Shaw grabbed an Indian, who picked up a
gun and fired at Shaw. One of the deputies
threw aside the muzzle of the gun and the
bullet hit squaw in the leg. The Indian
then knocked Shaw down. At this time
several other Indians opened fire and the
! fight began. At its conclusion all of the
bucks were either dead or crippled. None
of the deputies were seriously hurt. Later
reports stated that many deputies and
ranchmen from the surrounding territory
were fastening to the scene and that SOC
bucks were on their way from the reserva
ton to help fight the ranchmen. 1t is
feared that serious trouble will result.

Croker sued.

Commissioner Warning OF New York
Claims Libel Damages to the Amount

Col. George E. Warning of New York has
sued Richard Croker, the Tammany leader,
Blakeley Hall, editor, and E. H. Haines,
publisher, OF the Morning Telegraph, for
100000 for libelous articles published in
the Telegraph rejecting upon his efficiency
as street cleaning commissioner. The ar
ticles alleged that as street cleaning com
missioner, Col Waring spent 1000, 900
more than his predecessor; that at an ex-
pense of 1922, 206, he removed less snow
from the streets than was carted away in
Mayor Gilroy's time for $145, 319. 1t insn-
uated that Col. Warning benefited personal
ly by the snow removal contracts, and by
the present system of garbage disposal;
that he discharged employees for no other
reason then that they were Democrats, and
that the pay rolls showed an increase OF
the force, although no more sweepers were
employed than under the former admins.

Klondikers who have just returned to

for good, is the richest of all the dig
gings yet discovered on the Yukon, sur
Kissing Bonanza and Eldorado creeks
John F. Maloney, who is the attorney for
the Treadwell company on Douglass Island,
is at present in Seattle. He is the owner
of claims one and two at the mouth of
Skookum Greek near Bonanza Previous
to his departure from Dawson in Septem-
Der there was a cleanup of one of these
claims amounting to $50, 40, and this was
taken from the length of two sluice boxes,
about % feet. Maloney had with him the
finest collection of large nuggets, taken
from these mines, that has been brought
to Seattle. Wonderful discoveries have
been made on the high beaches and side
hills along Skookum Creek. This class of
ground has been greatly neglected and
overlooked by the miners of Alaska, who
have generally confined their operations tc

"stOrmy" Jordan to Defy the state and
Resume Business.

Aesume Business.
After November the traveller to Of

stormy" Jordan again in the saloon bust
ness. Jordan became famous fighting the
prohibtory law. He ran a place that was
known the world over as 1.-THE Road to
He'll" Above the place, in flaming red
letters, was printed this sign, "Road to
He'll" Inside were numerous other signs,
such as Nose Paint for Sale Here" and
the eccentric proprietor dealt out from be-
hind the bar such sentiments as those en-
bodied in the signs. When customer
asked for the best in the house he always
set a glass of water before him. When
the prohibitory law was passed Jordan re-
fused to abide by it and spent a fortune
fighting it in the courts. At last, when
the court of last resort decided against him
he had 20 years in the penitentiary and
100000 fine hanging over him. The exc
cution OF these were suspended by Gov.
Lambee on condition that he leave the
state. He went to Missouri, but when the
original package decision was made he re
turned and re0pened his saloon, declaring
there was no prohibitory law in Iowa
The sentence which Gov. Larrabee remit.
ted was brought to bear upon him and he
was forced to close his saloon again. A
