BY PROSECUTING ATTORNEY

Sheriff Cook This Morning Gave No
tice to All Business Men in the
City Of Mr.. Gibson's Intentions
Latter Says He Cannot Close His
Eyes to Violation.

County Attorney Gibson this morn.
ing gave notice through Sheriff Cook
and Under Sheriff Yund that, begin,
ming next Sunday, he would rigidly
city. The law is embraced in the tol.
lowing section of chapter 10 of the re.
vised statutes of Wyoming, 1899:
Section 2644. Business places shall
be closed on Sunday-exceptions. 1t
shall be unlawful for any person or

CONTEST MAY END
BELIEVED THAT BARR WILL NOT
MAKE A FIGHT FOR SEAT IN
LEGISLATURE.
Owing to Serious Illness Of Contest
ant, Contest Will at Least Be Post
poned for the Present-Preston
Claims Good Chance of Holding
On in Spite Of Contest.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Jan. 19.-(Special
to The Republican.)-There will prob
ably be nothing further done in the
contest case of Gavin Barr against
Representative d. A. Preston of
Sweetwater county. Saturday night
Bars attorney gave notice that owing
to the serious illness of Mr.. Barr the
contest would be postponed for the
present. Mr.. Barr has gone to a SAM
tarium, being afflicted with stomach
trouble.
1t is learned thai Mr.. Preston has
more than a good chance of holding
his seat. He admits there were irreg,
ularities in one of the Rock Springs
precincts. and that he probably re-
ceived a few more votes than were
cast for him in that precinct. but he
says he is not worrying about the con.
test, for the reason that he knows OF
irregularities in other precincts which,
if the Rock Springs precinct mistakes
were to be decided against him. would
be counted against Mr.. Barr for the
same reasons
The law provides that a ballot shall
be marked with the initials of the cleo
ton officer before it is handed to the
voter, this being one Of the precau'
lions taken to prevent frauds at the
polls. In a contest in Weston county
a few days ago Judge Stotts is said tC
have decided this very point, and all
ballots that did not carry the proper
marks were cast out. Mr.. Preston
says he knows of sixteen ballots tina,
were cast for Mr.. Barr hat were no,
marked properly and these would sure
ly have to be thrown out, and ever
though the ten votes in the Rocl
Springs precinct were counted fol
Mr.. Barr. he (Preston) would still
have a majority.

WILL INCORPORATE ALL
CATHOLIC CHURCHES.

Bishop j. J. Keane is preparing to in
corporate all of the Catholic churches
in the state of Wyoming to avoid legal
complications which arise from the
method now in force. At present the
bishop owns all the church property
in the state, but this necessitates a
will being filed in every county be-
queathing this property to his success
sor and the probating of these wills in
court. Bishop Keane proposes to in.
corporate each with himself as presi.
dent, and four trustees, composed of
the vicar general, the local priest and
two lay members.
Bishop Keane reports that there is q
shortage Of about ten or twelve priests
in the diocese and that efforts r be
ing made to secure more. No priest
can be had to fill the vacancy caused
by the death Of Father Casey at Raw
Inns.

to The Republican that Fred Nc
Laughlin Is not the man who took the

we'll liked by all the young people. He
has lived here for three years and has
never had any trouble with anybody
during that time"

BANKER CLEWS' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall Street.

The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall Street.
New York. Dec. 24.-No special ac-
tivity can be expected on the Stock
Exchange until after the holidays or
until the plans and changes incidental
to the new year go into effect. The
old year, however, closes in better and
sounder condition than it opened.
The money market is no longer a
subject of anxiety, and the much feared
stringency did not appear during the
crop-moving season. Like nearly all
foreseen disturbances it was averted
by anticioation. Funds are now re-
turning more freely from the interior;
so that, barring any furry incidental to
dividend and other disbursements Jan.
/, bank averages ought to rise for the
next two or three months.
One of the most satisfactory fea-
lures of the week is the more settled
conditions in the iron and steel trade.
Since the decision of the billet pool
to maintain prices a distinctly better
tone has developed. and now that the
prospect of a further reduction is re-
moved orders which have been held
back are likely to be gradually forth
coming.
