JUDGE SULLIVAN
Listened TO the Establishments of Bad
Lands Grafters,

Judge Sullivan had his first expe-
rience yesterday in listening to the
Establishments of women grafters who
prey on the unwary in the bad lands.
From the result of the two cases be-
fore him it is quite evident that he
is not as accustomed to the oily tongues
of the nimhle fingered women of the
row as he will be before his term ex-
pires, as both got off with unusually
light sentences. Gertie West, who was
accused of robbing a jay of $50 and
was before the court for maintaining
house of prostitution, was one of the
most malgned creatures that ever liv-
ed. 1t was utterly preposterous to think
she would rob any one. She was fined
$40.
Pearl Vaughn, who but recently join
ed the colony of grafters, was another
badly misused little girl, and would
never think of taking SIS from a man
when he was not looking. She paid
Us and pocketed the balance of the
touchdown.
For thrashing his wife John Adamic
paid $40 and for getting drunk one
Richard Roe was assessed SIS. William
Mcintyre, charged wits asaulting Pc
ter lombard, and M. C. Murray, charg-
ed with disturbance, each took "a hours
to plead.

His Opinion of Japs.

John Booone has a better opinion of
the sons of the Mikado than he had last
evening when he went into the Yoko-
hama restaurant in West Park street
with the intention of eating without
paying for his meal. He ordered and
ate and then started to leave the place
without calling on the cashier. His
attention was called to the oversight,
whereupon he challenged the Japs to a
fight if they insisted on being paid In
less than a second the place swarmed
with pompadours and Boone was soon
convinced his challenge had operated
as a boomerang. After being soundly
walloped a policeman was called and
he went to jail

GIGANTIC CATTLE COMPANY.
Texas to Have Ranch with $4,000, 900
Behind 1t.

Fort Worth, Tex, June 27-George
B. Loving, who is at the head of the
great deal, having for its object the
formation of gigantic cattle and
ranch company in Texas, in an inter-
terview said that the company will be
an American organization, composed of
New York capitalists and not English
men, as reported. The intention is to
form company with S40 o00, 900 CAPT
tai, $25, 600, 900 or $50, 600, 900 of which
are to be used in the purchase of cat
tie and ranch property in this state,
the balance of the capital stock to be
used in operating the big concern. 1t
is believed the business can be more
successfully conducted and at less ex-
peDse under single management.
Mr. Loving says there is no inten-
ton of forming cattle trust, merely
an effort to conduct an extensive cat
tie business, the largest in the world.
There are 6,000.000 cattle in Texas,
valued at 100000, 900.

Washington, June 25.-rhe acting
secretary of war said today that so far
as the department is concerned the
question of the maintenance OF can
teens at United States army posts is
settled in favor of maintaining the
present system.
Reports from officers in all branches
Of the service showed that from every
standpoint the army canteen associa-
ton as operated is infinitely better for
the interests of the soldier than the old
system of post traders and low grog-
geries on the outskirts of the posts.
The regulations under which the
canteen operates are already form
ulated and there will be no need for
further action by the department.
