Some of the Western lines. Including
the Rio Grande Western the Denver

says the San Francisco Chronicle
preparing to establish low rates to
Portland and Puget Sound points via
the Ogden gateway and Huntington.
They have practically decided accord
ing to advices received yesterday by
the passenger officials OF the Southern
Pacafic, to establish second class rates
OF $3.50 from Chicago to Portland and
Seattle and $50 from New York to the
same northern points the only hitch In
the plan being in reference to the ad-
visibility OF applying the fiat rates
mentioned for parties OF three or over
on single tickets 1t is proposed to coll
lect the full tariff rate and give the
passengers a rebate order on the com
pany's Portland or Seattle office for the
difference. This is the only way in
which the lines can prevent u demorali-
cation of their intermediate business
on parties of three or more however,
1t is proposed to make a fiat rate in the
amounts named but the Colorado lines
have offered an objection to this ar
rangement. being fearful that 1t might
offer a means OF cutting the rate to
Colorado points. AZ -precaution

all the details of the scheme will be

Hoy, IL brother of the dead man ar
rived here last evening and 2 hours after
the train had departed with the re-
mains.
From him we learn that last Thurs
day the posse were pressing the gang
closely. The latter were receiving
signals from Bennett who stood on
hill unknown to the posse. Bennett
fired his revolver three times which was
understood by the outlaws across the
canyon. Pete Swanson. deputy sheriff
from this place arrested Bennett and
took him to Bassctt's ranch securely
sacked. When the posse learned what
Bennett had been doing they came up
to Bassett's and demanded from the
deputy sheriff his prisoner. The demand
was refused and then the posse held up
the sheriff and took from him Bennett
and leading him to q gate prepared to
hang him. Bennett remarked;
please wait awhile and | will tell
you everything"
The men replied: I'VE don't want
to hear anything from you; you can die
with your knowledge" And he was
sent into eternity.
The posse then notified the sheriff
that II he wanted the shackles
he had better go and unlock them as
they wanted to bury the dead man
without further delay. Accordingly
the shackles were taken of and the
body hauled n short distance into the
canyon and buried. The posse then
began n thorough search for the other
three men, johnson, Liant and n man
supposed TO be Mexican, and finally
succeeded in getting them within

they were heading for. They were

and at last accounts the two were being

was being brought to Rock Springs by
