Reported Triple Tragedy.

Martin Ironda, sheep owner OF Nc
Dermit, who arrived here last night,
brought in a report of the killing OF
sheepman, J. Estrem, his herder, and
vaguero. His story came second hand,
having been related to him by the stage
driver on the Willow Point-McDermlt
line The rumored tragedy occurred
some days ago in the Stein mountain
country i'll Oregon, but no particulars
were known by the parties from whom
the story originally came.
If the story in regard to the killing OF
the three men is true it is probably~the
result of a long standing trouble between
the cattlemen and the sheepmen OF the
| Stein mountain country, where hundreds
of thousands of sheep are ranged eaci
summer.

It mieh mt be a good idea for the city

a great many horses and floats in the

to property and a proha BILE loss of life.
