FAIR
TREATMENT RECEIVED BY GRiEv,
ANCE COMMITTEE OF THE.
ORDER OF TRAINMEN.
Member from the Wyoming Division
Reaches Home Today and Ex-
come of the Conference With the
officials of the Road at Omaha.

r. A. Shearer. agent for the Union
Pacific at Medicine Bow and a mem,
Der of the grievance committee of the
Order of Railway Trainmen for the
Union Pacific system, reached the city
at noon today from Omaha, and will
remain mfe for a day or two before
going to Medicine Bow to resume his
position.
Mr.. Shearer says the committee was
given the most courteous attention by
the officials of the company. The two
bodies get together at the very start
on a basis of good fellowship, and dur
ing the whole time of the conference
nothing was done to disturb the friend
ly relations. The committee was not
given what it asked, but it Jared cry
well, Mr.. Shearer thinks. the increase
on the division between Cheyenne and
Rawlins amounting all told to about
1884, a month. Some of the men
were given increases amounting to ten
OIL fifteen dollars a month, and alto
gether the new scale was a considera-
Bile concession to the employees.
Mr.. Shearer has been east for the
past thirteen days, and greatly enjoy
ed his stay in Omaha. aside from the
pleasant duties of the committee. He
says men could not have been treated
better,

FOUR DAYS. BEAR HUNT.
President and Party in the Wilds Of
Mississippi.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Nov. 13.-President
Roosevelt is on his way to Smedes,
Miss. about twenty-five miles north
OF Vicksburg, for a our days bear
hunt.
The place selected for the hunt is
some miles from the railroad and in a
region which was formerly the favorite
hunting ground for General Wade
Hampton.
Years ago the president and General
Hampton planned a hunt in this region
but it was never made. and President
~Stuyvesant Fish of the Illinois Cen
trail proposed the present trip and the
president readily assented.
The president, however, does not an
ticipate the pleasure of killing a bear
as much as the pleasure of a few days
recreation in the woods. To one who
has hunted grizzlies in the Rockies,
black bears are not very big game.
But hunting bears with horse and
hounds will be a new experience for
him. Mr.. Fish has arranged to have
n of the pack of hounds in the Mis-
sissippi delta at the camp. From
Memphis the train will then proceed to
Smedes over the Mississippi and va
200 railroad. Upon arriving there or
near there it will run up a siding. there
to remain until next Wednesday. when
the president will return to Memphis.

the emperor the spectators openly e
pressed their admiration, much to the
emperor'S amusement. The days bag
was one of the biggest on record.

IN SIGHT FOR POSSESSION OF THE
DENNIS RYAN TRACT, NORTH
OF THE CITY.
Notice Served On the Executor Of the
Strobe Estate and On the Heirs
Named in the Wiil-verbaI Con-
tract Said To Have Been Made and
Interest Money Paid.

Dennis Ryan and Barry Ryan today
fled in the Office of County Clerk James
McGibbon a notice to Eli Crumrine,
executor OF the estate of John J. Strobe
deceased, Mrs. n. o. Strobe, Mrs. Eli
zabeth Colvin and Mrs. George White,
heirs and d%evisees of Mr.. Strobe, that
they had purchased from Mr.. Strobe
all of section II, township Is. range 10.
except forty acres used as a right-of-
way by the Union Pacific Railroad com
pany. about two miles north of Lara
ME, and on the Laramie river, and
that they had been in actual, notorious
and undisputcd possession of the pre-
misses since the first day OF July, 1899,
having paid the interest on the pur-
chase price. When they rendered the
purchase money. $4,000, to Mr.. Crum-
rine. he refused to accept it. saying that
the heirs had declined to recognize the
contract between the Ryans and Mr..
Strobe. The notice is the beginning of
the suit for the possession of the tract.
Dennis Ryan was in the city this
, 1902-11-13

morning and stated he would be abund-
antly able to prove the verbal contract
between himself and his brother n
Mr.. Strobe for the purchase of the
Crumrine the day before he
died that the Ryan contract should be
carried out, and this in the presence
OF other witnesses. He says he will be
able to prove that c.. A. Black, the I'm
ion Pacific land agent, offered himself
and his brother 81, 900 in excess of the
contract price with Mr.. Strobe for the
land, and that they refused the offer.
He believes he will have no difficulty
in proving that they have occupied the
land for the last three years, and that
they paid the interest promptly and in
full. Mr.. Strobe advised the brothers
last year not to sell a bunch of cattle
they were feeding, telling them the
market was low and suggesting that
they hold the stock Until this year.
when they could sell it and make
the final payment on the land when it
became due, November 7 of this year.
They took his advice. held the cattle
and realized enough to make the pay
ment, which they rendered to the exc
cutor, only to be told that he had been
asked not to accept it, as the contract
would not be recognized.
The matter Will no doubt follow into
the courts. as the Ryans. if there be an
effort to uispossess them, will seek to
establish their right to own and occupy
the tract. 1t is a peculiar case and will
be watched with some interest.

Proposed New States.

Washington, April 4-The friends
of the bill to confer Statehood on
Arizona, Oklahoma and New Mexico
were claiming today that they had
l12 Republican votes in the House
pledged to support that measure, CT
which number from forty to seventy
would withstand all pressure. The
assertion made by the House leaders
that those territories would send
Democratic Senators to Congress if
admitted as States they denounce as
groundless and erroneous. On the
contrary, they say, the Republicans
have New Mexico and Oklahoma safe
and would have more than a fighting
chance in Arizona if Statehood were
conferred on that Territory by Re
publican Congress. The Speaker has
not notified the committee on terri
tories wheth her he would give the bill
day in the House or whether it
would have to be called up as privil-
edged measure.

years this important, department has

it has atoned for the past; in horti-

effort; in the single division of cotton
culture it has developed an Egyptian

red. I note that it is now an S page
sheet instead of four as it was when
I lived at your place. How did you
do this? Was il because the demand
for it increased your excheque to an
extent sufficient to justify you in so
doing, or did you simply give it an
other fold?
note also that you have several
new Colonels with you. Are they
"home made or did they win their
lsurels by the recent unholy war the
United States forced on poor little
Spain?
I enclose dollar just to eucour-
age you. You can debit it with
copies of THE Lexington Dispatch"

I am glad to say that I am we'll

am hastily, but truly yours,
