FIRST WOOL ARRIVES.
Wyoming Clips Lighter Than Last
Year-Lambing Season.

The first wool of the season has
reached Billings and is stored in the
Northern i acific woolhouse. The first
clip to come in was that sheared from
bucks owned by P. B. Moss, n v
eral cars of Wyoming wool, which was
among the first clipped in that state
has already reached here, and Q
is expected shortly.
Shearing in Wyoming is progressing
nicely with but few delays. The clips
in almost every instance have been
a surprise to the flockmasters, in that
they are much lighter this year than
ever before. The wool is shorter,
looser and cleaner than for years.
One large clip is said to have fallen
short of last years weight over 25,.
| 900 pounds, and the same number OF
| sheep were sheared this year as last.
| Others will fall short from 5000 to
Is, 900 pounds. The tiockmasters OF
this section are OF the opinion that
the clips will be much lighter than last
year.
The lambing season throughout this
section is proving very successful and
the losses will be but slight II the
present weather continues. The chill
ly rains of last week, while they were
splendid for the range were not at al
good for tn lambs and had they con
tinued much longer would have meant
a great loss to the sheepmen.

WILL NOT BRING IN CATTLE.
Texans Do Not Invade Montana
Clusters Range Condition.

L. W. Stacy, one Of the big cattle
owners of Custer county, says the re-
port that many Texas cattlemen in
tend bringing their herds to this state
= a fake. Mr.. Stacy var in Billings
yesterday en- route to Texas, where
he will look after two herds that he
purchased in tina, state and is bring
ing to his range in this state.
Speaking to a Gazette reporter
about that many thousand head of
Texas cattle were to be shipped into
this state by their southern owners,
Mr.. Stacy said he believed the report
originated in the minds of. newsgather-
ers. If such a thought ever entered
the minds of the Texas owners they
have been disabused by the report
of dry range and hard winters, some
thing they have never had to contend
with.
There may possibly be two or three
outfits shipped into this state" said
Mr.. Stacy, "by parties who 1t. is
claimed have secured range privil-
eyes on the Musselshell, but aside
from this 1 look for no southern cat
tie other than that to be brought in
~ Montana stockmen."
The price of Texas cattle is not
so high as last year, according to the
statement of Mr.. Stacy, who is &C.
quainted with conditions, having made
several trips lately to that state,
Wishing to dispose of their surplus
stock they have made concessions OF
So per head over the prices obtain
| able last season. "The present season
| will see a great falling off in the ship
ments of Texas cattle to Montana as
| compared with previous seasons" sale
Mr.. Stacy, more on account OF the
condition of the ranges. In the frs
place the ranges are very dry and
although the stockmen have not giveI
up hopes of rain, they are not buying
as heavily as in former years. Then
too, the ranges are crowded as they
have neve been before, and the oper
range is fast becoming a thing of the
past"
The Custer county ranges are great
ly in need of rain, not having had any
thing but light s%prinkles in weeks
past. The heavy rains, which visited
this section last week, did not extend
that far. Despite this gloomy out
look, Mr.. Stacy says the stockme1
have not given up hope of yet seeing
some good rains before it is too lat
to be of benefit to the range.
The first herd that Mr.. Stacy j!
shipping to Montana will reach Bill
ings about May 16, and the second OF
May 25. The cattle will be unloade'
here and driven to Custer county,
portion of Mr.. Stacy's outfit having al
ready arrived here to care for tn
stock.

Ex-JUDGE SENTENCED.
Dudley DuBose To Go To Jail FOR
Contempt of Court.

Ex-Judge Duo.ey DuBose, an attor-
ney of Cape Nome, has been sentenced
to six months in the Alameda
county Jail in California for contempt
of the United States circuit court OF
appeals. The decision was rendered
a few days ago. Ex-Judge DuBose is
now at Nome and deputy United States
marshals will be sent north to bring
him to San Francisco.
Ex-Judge DuBose was found guilty
of contempt in advising his client, 0,
j. Comptols, to .disobey and refuse to
comply with the term of a writ OF SUI
persedeas issued by Judge Morrow
in the case of P. H. Anderson VS.
Comptols.
This is one of the cases in which
Alexander Mckenzie, now serving q
term in the Alameda county jail. was
receiver. The writ directed the turn
ing owe of gold dust, but Comptols
acting on the advice of Judge DuBose
refused to 90 so. The court Of appeals
after stating that an attorney has
right to advise his client, continues
"An attorney cannot go beyond this
| right to advise and, actuated by {
spirit of resistance, conspire with hi
client or with others to disobey an or
der of court, obstruct the u admin
istration of the laws, bringing tn
authority of a court OF justice int
contempt"
Mr.. DuBose was formerly judge o
the Tenth judicial district of Montana
residing at Fort Benton, but ne re
signed about a year ago to go to Cap
Nome, where he thought better oppor
tunities were afforded. He has man.
acquaintances through this section t
whom the news of his sentence come

from their counters. There was more

the the machines were considered
trade getters, but they had to go just

their being resurrected soon, as the
