STOPPED
BY SHERIFF FROM CUTTING ICE
FOR RAILROAD COMPANY
ON LARAMIE RIVER.
Contractor Maynard, Who Has Con-
tract for One Thousand Cars Of
Laramie River Ice for the Union
Pacific, Finds Sheriff and War
rant in His Way.

There is a merry war on between
Harry Maynard, contractor for cutting
ice from the Laramie river for the I'm.
ion Pacific, and Morgan Knadler, who
claims to own the land upon which the
railroad company has built a dam for
the purpose Of storing water from
which to take ice.
The ice taken from the Laramie
river is said to be the finest on the
Union Pacific system, and is used on
the Pullman, dining and special cars
of the line. 1t Is estimated that 1000
carloads will be required for that pur-
pose from the reservoir here. Mr..
Maynard had men on hand to go to
work this morning, but work was stop
ped pending a settlement of the dis
pute.
It would seem that the railroad
company built its dam last fall, and
that Mr.. Knadler became possessed of
the land by lease dated January l,
1900. When the contractor started his
men to work this morning he was told
that Mr.. Knadler would resist the eff
forts of the company, as Knadler
claimed to control the land and the
bed Of the stream. The railroad ON
pany by its supply officer in Omaha
advised Maynard to pay no attention
to Knadler, but to proceed, which he
did. Later, however, he was stopped
by order Of Sheriff Cook and that sus-
pended work. the injunction being
obeyed.
Mr.. Knadler insists that the ice in
the river is his, by right Of the lease
of the property from the Union Pacific
through which the river flows.
John McCue, foreman for Maynard,
was arrested on a warrant from JUS
tice Hayford's court, sworn out by
Knadler. and the trial was set for 3
o'clock this afternoon.
The attorneys for the defendant,
Carpenter & Groesbeck, will serve no
tee Of canceAatoo~of the lease upon
Mr.. Knadler unless he consents to per-
nit the harvesting Of the ice for the
railroad company, they claiming that
they have a right to revoke the lease
under express terms.
It is said that Knadler claims all the
ice in the stream, but the railroad COM
pany clai .ns that As the ice is for Its

and the temperature had moderated.
The Rawlins Republican, in speak
ing Of the wreck at Scion, says:

WILL EXTEND THE
CITY TELEPHONE SYSTEM

E. v. Acheson Of Salt Lake, repre-
senting the Rocky Mountain Bell Tele
phone company is in the city, and will
remain a few days working up the 10
cal exchange. He hopes to add enough
subscribers to bring the number up
to $50, when a second operator will be
put in the Office here.
At present the work is almost too
heavy for the local operator, but there
is not enough work for two. The toll
line business is quite heavy here,
which takes the time Of the operator
a good deal.
Mr.. Acheson says the system ia
growing steadily, the Rawlins ONCE
having been worked up to about 150
instruments, where, when they are
installed, a second operator will be
employed.
