Movement of Cattle.

The National Live Stock associa-
zion has issued a bulletin on the
movement of cattle through Colo
RADIO to adjoining states during the
season which ended Nov Is. with a
comparison. The movement shows
q heavy decrease for the past seas
on. The total number Of head in
spected through that state west was
$50, 994, against 372, 697 for 1897.
The falling off is believed to be
largely due to the war scare at the
commencement Of the season, many
of the cattle that had been contract
ed to be moved being forfeited by
the contractors and are still in the
south. Another cause of the de-
crease is the high prices that have
prevailed and which has prevented
the northern range buyers from
taking the usual number. In
1895 Montana took 70, 955 cattle
from the south while this year the
total is only l,0Sl. Wyoming shows
a falling off from 40, 1000 in 1895 to
less than 5000 this year. The cat
tie moved from the following terri.
tory: Texas. 5000; New Mexico,
81 1881, Arizona 12O: o53; Old Mexico

An Able

The UNION always likes tc tender
recognition to a good thing or COM
pliment an especially meritorlous
act, hence these remarks on vhe able
defense as conducted by Messrs.
Chauncey l.. Wood and Edmund
Smith in the Hooper murder trial,
which closed too late for extended
comment in our last issue. That
Hooper would be convicted and given
a lengthy term in the pe%nitentiary
for the cowardly murder of Johnny
McCrae everyone believed. While
The UNION believes that Hooper
should be behind prison bars TODAY,
yet it cannot fail to recognize the
one fact that it took more than an
ordinary effort, more than ordinary
legal talent and ingenuity, to clear
Hooper in the weight of evidence
against him. There is no getting
away from this fact. A more able
defense was never made in Penning-
ton county, and The UNION does not
hesitate to place the credit where it
rightly belongs-with Messrs.
Edmund Smith and Chauncy L.
Wood.

ROWDY SCENES
 IN THE CHAMBER French Deputies Keep Up Their Populations as ToughS. FORMER PREMIER BRlSSON Accused of Indiscretion in the Conduct of the Dreyfus Affai1-DeFreyc net
 Declares His Willingness
 to Resign.
FORMER PREMIER BRlSSON

Paris, December 19.-There was repeti-. tion this afternoon of the now famous scenes in the chamber of deputies. M. Las- cos interpellated the government on the alleged ind scretion of the Brisson ministry in the Dreyfus affair. He accused former premier M. Brisson of violating the consti- tuition and violently attacked the court of cessation, whose president M. Loves, he said, was brother of the German officer. The speech of M. Lascos excited an uproar and protests. The minister of war, M. De- Freycinet said he did not wish to appear as wishing to influence the decision of the court of cessation. But, the minister added, he was quite willing to resign.
 M Lascos said he thought that under the circumstances the revision of the Dreyfus trial was only a comedy and he thanked M DeFreyc.net for furnishing official con- firmation of the report that the secret batch of documents so frequently referred to re- ally existed. He then withdrew his inter- pellation.
 The chamber later discussed an interpel- lation of M. eMillerand relative to the con- dition upon which the secret dossier could be communicated to the court of cessation as he contended, unless the court were put in possession of all the documents, the whole case of revision was vitiated. M. Dupuy, the premier, replied that unless guarantee of absolute secrecy were forth coming the government would not com municate these documents to the court. I ne premier declared also that it was im- possible to show the documents to the de- fense unless the government was abso- lutely assured of secrecy.
 M Brisson said: ''There is no document in the DreyfuS document that could ef- feet the security of the state I examined the entire dossier after the discovery of the Henry forgery, and considered them all suspicious"
 M. Cavaignac, former minister of war, interjected: Yes, M. Brisson and M. Sar- rien examined the documents, I thought l. necessary to them. Afterward I offered to show M. Arlsson certain documents in the hands of General Gonse, in which there were the elements of conviction, but M. Brisson thought it useless to examine these"
 After further debate, which had been throughout of a most animated character the chamber by vote of BIO against 80 approved the attitude of the government.

Mrs. Botlkin at Heaidsburg, where the ae- cused was in seclusion at the tiTne of the murder Miss Livernash told the story of Mrs. BotIxin's acquaintance with MrssDun- ming as Mrs. Botlkin had told 1t tos her. When told that she was suspected, the ac- cused became hysterical and said: Why should be suspected? It would have been better to have killed the man and spared the mother to the child"
 Mrs Botl1in also spoke of the anonymous letters sent to Mrs. Botkin and said they were sent by woman in San Francisco. On another occasion while witness was with Mrs. Botlzin in Stockton, Mrs. Botkin's son, Beverly, entered the house in a state of in- toxication and made remarks concerning his mothers relation with Cunning. Mrs. Botkin turned to Miss Liyernash appealing ly, saying: What shall I do? My sons insolence damns me-"
 MT. Dunning husband of one of the vic- tins of the tragedy, testified as to his rela- tions with Mrs. Botkin and described with some degree of detail the affairs up to the time he left this city for Cuba, where he was to do newspaper work. He said that he had received many letters from Mrs. Botkn, but had destroyed them as fast as they came
