BURNED THE FENCE.
No Fence Act Causes Trouble in Bladen County
Governor Offers Reward

Senator George Currie, of Bladen coun-
ty, came up yesterday morning to see
the Governor in regard to the bun ming of
the stock law fence between Bladen AMI
Columbus counties. AS a result the Gov
ernor has issued a proclamation Offering
5000 reward for the apprehension OF the
person who burned the fence between the
two counties.
1t seems that in Columbus the fence
law prevails. Hence it was necessary TO
build fence between that county and
Bladen, for which latter county Senato~
Currie procured the passage in the last
Legislature of a no fence act. The fence
has twice been destroyed. and unless it
can be kept up the no fence law in Bladen
comes to naught, for stock can be run
at large in Columbus. Some weeks ago
the county commissioners Of Bladen went
to the expense of rebuilding the fence.
but last week it was burned down for n
distance of eight miles. The fence cost
the county $135 a mile.

care of an epidemic better now than
W. before.
The first step toward the establish
ment of a permanent international
livestock exposition to be held annual
ly in Chicago was taken tonight at
the meeting which Secretary Wilson
addressed.
The association is to be similar to
that which for three years has been
conducted by the exposition under the
patronage of the Union Stock Yards
company. It is to consist of life mem
bers from all parts of this and other
countries.
The membership fee is to be 800
with annual dues of SO each for year
ly membership. A resolution embody-
ing the basis of this new enterprise
was adopted by a unanimous vote and
the action was a signal for continued
applause from a thousand or more
stockmen, representing all parts Of the
United States and Canada.

SHERIFF AND POSSE ONLY AN
HOUR BEHIND.
HEADED FOR Wild REGION
looters of Bridger Bank Seek Es-
cape North Of Yellowstone
National Park.

Prom Wednesdays Daily Gazette.
Further particulars of the flight of
the three men who robbed the bank at
Bridger yesterday noon were received
this morning by The Gazette from
A~bsarokee.
After a very lively chase through
the Clarks Fork country yesterday af-
ternoon the robbers succeeded in
reaching the main Rosebud river,
about 40 miles from the scene of their
crime. At 10 o'clock last night they
were at the Arthur ranch, six miles
east of Absarokee, and an hour later
Sheriff Potter of Carbon county with
four deputies appeared also at the
ranch.
The robbers did not tarry very long
on the Rosebud, Sheriff Potter having
kept the trail warm all evening. From
the Arthur ranch the sheriff and his
posse went down the river to Absaro-
kee, where they rested a few hours
vi CSulO q I1dI16c VI uOISCS " IT,
new the search. Early this morning
the sheriff took up the trail which
led to the headwaters of the Still
water river. .
1t was the impression of Sheriff Pot
ter that the robbers are heading for
the country north of the Yellowstone
park. Ordinarily at this time of the
year passage through that section is
almost impossible on account of the
depth of the snow, but the snowfall
thus far this season has been very
light in that locality and it is believ-
ed that the highwaymen will have
but little difficulty in making their
escape through the mountains and in
to the country in the vicinity of the
Teton range.
Those who are familiar with that
part of the country for which the
thieves are making are under the i'm
preston that for the time being at
least they will make good tbkH es-
cape.

GREATEST LIVE STOCK SHOW
EVER HELD.
WILL MAKE IT PERMANENT
Secretary of Agriculture Delivers Ad-
dress at Meeting Of Stock
growers in Chicago.

Chicago, Dec. 2.-"The Chicago In
ternational Livestock exposition is
the most magnificent expression of
progressive breeding and feeding that
has ever been seen in the history of
the world" James M. Wilson, secre-
tary of agriculture, paid this compli-
1nent to the show in an address at
the new livestock record building at
the stock yards.
1t was erected by the Union Stock
Yards company at a cost of 800 1000,
and is a three story brick structure.
The first floor will be devoted to agri-
cultural exhibits of railways; the Sec
ond will be occupied al headquarters
by livestock record societies from all
sections of the United States; the
third contains reading, lounging and
club rooms and a large auditorium.
w. A. Skinner, general agent of the
stock yards company and general a
ager of the exposition, presented the
building tonight to the livestock in
terests of America.
Secretary Wilson received it or be-
half of the live stock men. John
Dridden, minister of agriculture, spoke
on behalf of the stock growers of
Canada, and w. E. Harris, United
States senator from Kansas, spoke for
the breeders of the west. 4
Secretary Wilson, after compliment
ing the donors of the building upon
the present made to the live stock
men, said:
'The most important feature of this
exposition to me is the presence here
of the students from the agricultural
colleges
The secretary then paid a high
tribute to the value of the work being
done by those Institutes and went on
to say: '"..
"Now l propose to ask congress to
be generous with us and authorize me
to cooperate with the colleges and ex-
pertinent stations throughout the land
along the lines Of breeding. We want
to produce what we need in the Unit
ed States. l think we have the health
lest animals in the world in the Unit
ed States of America. Our brethren
in Canada perhaps have as healthy an
imals as we have here. When you
go to the continent of Europe you
find disease there all the time, for
the reason that jurisdiction is SO
cut up into small countries that no
one central power cal stamp out the
disease as we can here, or as the Brit
ish can. We are compelled to shut
out everything from continental Eu-
rope. We are compelled to shut out
everything from Asia. We have shut
out everything from the Philippines.
