New York. Nov. 11.--According to q
London correspondent the Express states
that the Earl OF Rosslyn, who recently
tried to float company with capftat
OF S1OO, 900 for the purpose of perfecting
a system capable OF reducing the Monte
Carlo games to state Of bankruptcy.
has secured interesting results with his
new scneme.
On Monday a croupier played test
game with Lord Rossiyn at Nos. Sl-Ss
Jermyn street, where he dealt Trente ct
Quarante cards for two hours In the
morning and again in the afternoon
while Lord Rosslyn played valuable
stakes according to the system.
The result of the first days play
against the croupier was a win OF EGGS
($1325).
On Tuesday, November S, the game
was resumed and at the end of the day.
after several heavy imaginary losses, the
earl had won $1,000 (s5O00).
During the whole of the time occupied
in playing the earl continually made
puzzling calculations, and always re-
ferred to big chart which was covered
with mathematical problems and hieroe-
lyphics, that reminded one OF ancient
Egyptian papyri.
Sporting men and experts are skeptfc4l
and say before any money Is invested II

necessary to see the result of 10000 coupA

STOCK MEN SEE A BEEF FAMINE
Chicago That Grazing Hands
Dmin and MeatC
Aid Wanted.

The stockmen assert that the unfavor~
able methods of administering the pub.
lie lands of the West are back of the
threatened shortage. At the coming ma.
tional convention in Chicago next month
an effort will be made to throw the wholS
matter into congress. ask that conlmis<
sion be appointed with expert assstancf
to investigate and devise plans for res
1ieving the situation.
The stockmen In the National asSO.
citation have been striving several years
to devise some plan for amending the
iand laws that would remedy existing
evils. but have been unable to agree.
One faction is in favor of leasing the
lands by the government.
Another wants the lands ceded to the
states, another wants the laws left az
they are, and irrigation works con.
structed to redeem the lands by irri.
cation.
AS a compromise for all it is now pro.
posed to have congress take charge OF
the whole matter through commission
and after investigation, take such action
as will tend to stop the waste and de-
struction now going on and en- ncouraXs
the establishment of small stock farms.
The plan also will recommend govcrn-
ment aid in building storage reservoirs
on the ranges near headquarters OF
streams.
The big packers admit that there has
Leen a serious decrease in the visible
supply of cattle in the last five years.
They are looking forward to higher
prices in the near future, but they say
the people will be forced to eat mutton
instead of beef. though even mutton
probably will become scarce later on. as
the same conditions that are diminishing
the beef supply will also affect the sheep
supply.

it seems impossible that they can get

Re-enforced by the weapons taken
from the Wooster house, and from the
officers, they are we'll prepared, however,
to make a fierce fight.
They are desperate men and, unless
the wounds received yesterday prove

taken alive.
Other posses are said to be pursuing
two different gangs within so miles of
the penitentiary and further captures
are looked for during the day.

FRIaHTENs HER NE1GHBoR.
Woman Is Charged With Smashing
in Window.

Mrs. Mary Paroch, an aged woman who
lives on South Ohio street, claims to
have had a terrorizing experience at
the hands of another woman, named An
ME Oswell Saturday night, and a COM
plant charging the latter with malicious
mischief was issued at her request this
morning by Deputy County Attorney
Lynch.
Mrs. Paroch told a blood curdling tale
of how the defendant attacked her resi-
dence, while Intoxicated, and smashed
one of it's windows, sash and all, reduc-
in her to such a gibbering state of
fright that she took refuge in her cellar
She declared that Mrs. Oswell swept
down upon the house like a hurricane,
and that for awhile the storm of her
wrath rocked it upon it's foundation
The animus that animated Mrs. Os-
we'll is not known, but Mrs. Paroch was
of the opinion that whatever it was it's
results were terrible.
The case was filed in Judge Arnold's
court.

matter was placed in the hands of tht
chief of sleuths in Butte.
1t has been ascertained that Murray
had come to Butte, that he had remained
here a few days and that ne is undoubt|
edly somewhere within the city limits
alive or dead.
Wayne Murray Is a stenographer OF
brilliant promise and exceptional ability
He is relative Of Vice-President Mof1
ton of the Atchinson, Topeka & Santa
Fe road and of Congressman Joy of st.
Louis, Mo.
His parents live in Kansas, part of the
family being at Burlington and othet
relatives residing at Junction City. III
Kansas, as in st. Louis, Murray,
through his family connections, has beep
a prominent society young man, we'll
liked and popular.
Several weeks ago he left for the West
on pleasure trip ana to seek relief from
arduous duties imposed upon him az
stenographer and secretary in the Santa
Fe offices at st. Louis.
A few letters passed between him and
his parents, and then all trace of thu
young man was lost. The relatives be-
came worried and inquiries were made
which only increased the fears of the
family.
Murray was traced to Helena and
then to Butte, where he entered into the
pleasant living OF a society swell. Hts
mysterious disappearance without ap.
parent cause, has led to the belief that
he as been made a victim of thieves,
possibly murderers.
Murray is described as being IS years
Of age, Of medium height, light com.
plexion. fair skin, smooth face. light hair
and blue eyes, which he winks rapid
ly when interested in any subject. Face
rather broad, possible fiat. He is weu
dressed, alert in his movements and
bright in conversation and in a business
way.

According to information received at
the headquarters of the National Live
Stock association in Chicago, congress
will have the Western public land sltu-
alton brought to its attention this winter
in new and startling manner.
Cattlemen in the West, says telegram
to the Inter Mountain, who have been
quietly Investigating, are prepared to
SOW that during the last five years there
has been great decrease in the num-
Der of cattle in this country, a decrease
which seriously threatens the beef food
supply. and unless speedy action be
taken by congress in the course OF very
few years beef will be selling at such
fabulous prices that only the wealthy
can afford to indulge in the luxury of a
beefsteak
The cause in this rapid decline in the
number of beef cattle is said to be due
solely to the contraction of the Western
public grazing lands and the inc!e ease in
the consumptive demand.
The rapid settlement of the West has
caused the ranges left to become
crowded This crowded condition has
prevented the reseeding of grasses and
consequently millions of acres Of once
good pasture have been turned INTO alb
solute desert.
Most of the large herds have been dis
persed and slaughtered and the bulk of
the cattle supply is now being furnished
by the small stockmen, but the evolution
from the large herds on the open range
to the small herds in pastures. is too
slow. owing to unfavorable land conGi-
tiOns.
A few years ago the markets We're sup
piled with cattle four. five and SIX years
of age Now even yearings are being
slaughtered TO make up the sunn)y of
