Yellowstone park will be almost double in
size II q bill now before congress becomes
q law. To the present area Of the park
Il IL proposed to add 3.254 square
miles. making the total 6.567 square miles.
General John +. Lacey, chairman Of the
house committee on public lands, hopes TO
secure the necessary legislation. The rea-
sons for the proposed increase in the area
Of the park, says the Brooklyn Eagle, are
to be found In a report recently submitted
to the speaker OF the house OF representa-
tives by the secretary Of the interior, In
which he declared that moose, elk, deer,
antelope, mountain sheep and other game
which have summer range within the bound
aries Of the park. wandering into the timber
and land reservations east and south dur
ing the winter, ARE ruthlessly killed in
large numbers by pot hunters and others
for their heads, teeth, pelt and meat" and

cal extinction Of the large game will be
but a question Of a short time unless the
government, by appropriate legislation,
provides for their protection"
The League of American Sportsmen, with
headquarters In New York, is doing what
Il can to influence senators and representa-
tives in Washington to- enact the legal laws.
President q. o. Shields Of the league has
forwarded to Washington copies Of a reso-
linton passed at a recent meeting of the
national organization at Indianapolis,
wherein Il lie said: I'VE deeply deplore this
neglect Of duty on the part Of our SENATOR
and representatives in congress, and we re-
quest and urge that body to appropriate
hereafter at least $4,000 q year for the
employment of scouts and gamekeepers IN
the park, in order that the few remaining
buffhlo and other game may, II possible, BE-
saved from the ravages Of these skin hunt.

On the authority Of the League Of Amer
