NEW BUYERS ENTER.
Pacific Coast Dealers Bidding for
Wyoming Cattle.

wyoming cattle.
If reports from Cheyenne are to be
credited, the Chicago and Omaha mar
kets, which have heretofore practical
ly monopolized the output of cattle
from Wyoming ranges, are having
sharp competitors in the persons OF
buyers from the Pacific coast and
there is strong probability that for
the first time a considerable amount
of the states beef crop will be shipped
to Portland and other points ON the
Pacific. The prevailing low prices on
the eastern markets have given the
coast buyers an opportunity and seem
ingly they are not slow in availing
themselves of it. Not only are they
said to be offering better prices than
those of the east, but are buying on
the range, thus relieving the seller OF
the worry nc.dent to shipping.
In the western part of the state the
buyers from the Pacific are said to
be particularly active and have Sc
cured some good herds. The Labarge
outfit, which hitherto has shipped to
the eastern markets only, is consid-
ering the matter of sending 5000
steers to Portland. That port is be-
coming cattle market of considerable
Importance ON account of the effort
making by Americans to take the Phil
ippine beef trade away from Australia,
which so far has supplied about all the
beef consumed in the islands.
1t is said that the dissatisfaction
with eastern market prices prevailing
in Laramie county, which has exist
ed for a long time, is becoming more
pronounced and several of the large
outfits may not ship at all this year,
preferring to run their herds through
another winter rather than sacrifice
them for but little more than enough
to pay the freight charges. While
they recognize that the holding over
proposition is an expensive one, they
believe that the existing depression
must give way to the other extreme in
few months and that those who hold
over will be well paid for their bold
ness.

following announcement:
"The management of the state fair
assures the people Of Montana that,
short as the time and limited as the
funds, Montana will have creditable
state fair in 1903, and a better one
each year as time goes on. There is a
sentiment behind the state fair that
will make it a success. From all
parts of the state assurance comes
that the time is ripe for state ex-
hibit of Montana's matchless re-
sources, which can in no way be done
so we'll as by state fair.
ct is a project in which many join
with zeal and enthusiasm. The state
fair will prove an annual event-a
meeting place and common ground
upon which all, laying aside differ
ences of every description, may meet
and take note of the progress being
made by the material industries OF
the state. With Montana's mines

A SMALL FIRE.
lhe Residence Occupied by Mr.. J. H. Cald-
we'll Burned Caused by a Lamp
Exploding.

Sunday night about II O'Clock a laml
exploded in the residence occupied by
Mr.. j. H. Caldwell, on Nance street,
the property of Mr.. e. Y. Morris, ane
as result the house was almost burned
| down.
Mr. Caldwell saw the lamp was about
to explode when he threw his overcoat
over 1t and ran into the kitchen with
1t, when it exploded, throwing oil all
over the kitchen and dining room ad-
joining, causing the flames to spread at
once over both rooms
Mr.. Caldwell did not give the alarm
at once, but proceeded to get his wife
and infant child out of the building.
SO when the alarm was sounded the
flames had gained considerable head
way.
The Excelsior Fire Company was a
little slow in getting out with their
hose wagon, owing to the fact that
Dave Irons, the driver, had left his
post and was not in the house when the
alarm came in. Outsiders with the as
slstance of the firemen that arrived had
to hitch up and drive out the team.
LYONS was Immediately discharged and
some one else placed in charge of the
team.
Mr. Caldwell saved very near all of his
household goods that were in the front
rooms. The kitchen f.rniture was all
lost. The house is pretty much of a
wreck Mr.. Morris had it partly in
sured in an agency represented by Mr..
Jno. Scott.
The firemen did good work in not let
ting the flames spread.

Of the Railroad Track In Helena.

Saturday morning the dead body o1
VIM. ID. Diver was found on the side
of the Southern Railroad track il
! Helena.
He was in NewbeTy Friday Afternoon
late and left about dark for his home
in Helena. He was seen in the stores
at Helena, where he purchased some
! little articles about 9:3O o'clock Friday
night. When he left the store he did
not say where he was going.
Saturday morning about sunrise his
body was found cold in death lying by
the side of the Southern track, oppisite
| the negre church on the upper edge of
the village
DIR. j. M. Kibler examined the body
and testified before the coroner that
when he examined the body it had been
dead from ten to twelve hours. He
found cut on the right forearm,
a considerable bruise on the left
shoulder, and blow on the back of the
head, caused by blunt instrument,
producing fracture of the skull, con-
CuSlOn OF the BRAN and hcmOrage, and
immediate death.
The coroner's jury after hearing tcs-
tmony rendered the following verdict:
''That the said w. d. Diver came to
his death by being stuck by train No
16, due at II 40 at Helena, S. c., Janu-
airy l6, 1903, and from which wound the
said w. d. Diver died"
From what was brought out at the
inquest it seems that Mr.. Diver had
sat on the end of crosstic and fallen
asleep when the train came along and
killed him.
His remains were buried Sunday
morning. His mother and family have
the sympathy Of the whole community
in this their sad calamity.
