cause the interstate commerce commits

of this city between soldiers of the
Eleventh infantry and the Nineteenth
artillery from Fort Russell is to be
investigated by the war department.
Result of a Feud.
There has been a feud of long stand.

at Washington. Private Cheeseman,
who was stabbed in the lungs, is in a
p~recarious condition this morning. Six
other soldiers were badly cut and are
in the hospital.

Cheeseman was stabbed by one of his
own faction, who mistook him for an
infantryman.

AND LABOR SCARCE.

The Wyoming Development company

of about $500 yards of solid earth and
loose rock at the mouth of its tunnel,
located about twenty-five miles west
of Wkeatland, the work to be complet.
ed by the first day of March, 1907.
Up to this time not an answer or
bid has been received, the Cheyenne
Tribune says. Judge Carey says ii
demonstrates a remarkable condition
of this country. Work is so plentiful
and labor so scarce that contractors
actually do not bid on desirable jobs.
