Big Timber, Mont, May 8.-The re-
port again comes from the eastern
portion of the county that wolves are
still raising havoc there among the
cattle. Several ranchers from that
vicinity were in town this morning
and said that the reports had not been
in the least exaggerated. The great
est damage has been done on the head
of what Is known as Whistle and
Hump creeks, a considerable number
of cattle having been killed there.
Wolves have been more numerous
since about the first of March. The
number of animals that have been
killed is not exactly known, but 1t Is
supposed to be considerable. In or
der to assist in cleaning out the ma
rauders the ranchers have offered a
reward of S25 for the scalp Of each
wolf taken.
