the average at 5 per cent copper and Sc a

1t will only be a few days now until

WANTED IN TEXAS.
w. d. SMITH ARRIVES IN THE CITY
WITH A CATTLE RUSTLER.

W. D. Smith of Miles City, special stock
detective for the government, arrived in
the city at noon today with p. NJ. Price,
who is wanted in Texas for the alleged
theft of cattle twelve years ago, and left
for the south at 4 o'clock. Price was cap
tured on a ranch near Hinsdale, 25 miles
west of Glasgow, last Sunday, the posse
that captured him consisting of Smith,
Harry Lund of Fort Benton and John w.
Collins of this city, all stock inspectors
and regulators of the cattle rustling
fraternity. After securing Price the off,
GERS made a search of the place and
found IL beef hides from which the
brands had been cut; therefore they
could not determine to whom the cattle
from which they had been taken had be-
longed.
During the stay in this city Price was
Kept In the county Jail. Judging by the
fact that the Texas authorities have
oeen after him for IL years the charge
against him in that state must be Sc
we're. 1t was only a short time ago they
succeeded in locating him on a ranch n
valley county, this state, but it was not
long afterwards before plans for his cap
ture had been consummated. When con-
fronted by the officers with drawn guns
ne made no resistance. He is strongly
suspected of having carried on a cattle
rustling business in the northern part
OF this state, but it is said that for some
reason not generally known on the out
it is difficult to convict a thief in
Valley county. In view Of this fact the
officers concluded to turn Price over to
the Texas authorities and Smith was
deput1Zed by the government to take him
to them.
|. The case Of the state against John Nee
han, charged with mayhem, the biting of
the nose of J. p. MCGOWAN a few days
go, was called for adjustment in JUS
tice Bliss court this afternoon, but the
prosecuting witness failed to put in an
appearance and the matter was thrown
out of the legal hopper The defendant
was on hand and stated that he had seen
McGowan. this morning and the latter
had told him he intended to leave town
until the trouble blew over.
Right after the assault was committed
McGoWan was very anxious to have Nee
han brought to justice, but later on he
showed a disposition to quit. After Nee
mans arrest he procured a bond for him
and then had it reduced, winding up his
leniency by disappearing entirely to pre-
vent a conviction. In view of this fact
Roy s. Alley. who appeared for the state.
asked the justice to tax the costs up to
him and 1T was done. Mr.. Alley and the
other members of the county attorneys
force say they intend to make an exam
pie Of some of those who put them to SO
much trouble and the state to the ex-
pense OF bringing suits and then repu-
dating them by either not appearing in
court or else swearing to something diff
ferent to what they maintained at the
time of the commencement OF the ac-
tions.
