Opposition 10 Forestry Proclamation.
WASHINGTON, FeD. 23.-The forest.
ry Proclamation issued by President
Cleveland yesterday 10 messing with
the vigorous opposition of some OF the
congressman from the sectioBs inter-
ested. Senator Clark OF Wyoming,
Representative Moadell of Wyoming
and Rsprest NATIVE Gamble OF South
Dakota had an interview with Secre.
tafy Francis this afternoon, at which
they protested agains. the proclama.
zion. They contend that there was
no danger OF exhaUBting the timber
supply; that the setttnE aeide OF the
Big Horn reserve especially, was
mistake, based only on the recommen.
dalions, OF the forest committee wnose
knowledge OF the conditions, they
said, was certainly inajequate. They
contend that the reservations en-
bracsd valuable mineral deposits
which could be worked to the profit Of
the country, and that these were
wrongly barred from being utilized.
Secretary FIancis, together with
Arnold Hague, one OF the commission
ers, talked over the matter very frank
~, explaining 1t was TO prevent the
disastrous ana indiscrlminate uestruc-
ton OF timber, aud suggesting that
members might receive proper remedy
il there wac any needed, in Legislation.
The members propose to fight the
matter, aud formal protest doubtless
Will be flied tomorrow. The nature
of this has not definitely been Ceter-

seemed to be parts of a human body, and the
