GUARDS FOR CALDWELL JAIL
Unusual Precautions Being Taken to
Guard Alleged Murderers Of ex-
Governor Steunenberg.

BOISE, Idaho, March 21.-Sheriff
Jasper Nichols of Canyon county, ar
rived in Boise last evening from Cald-
we'll. Asked concerning the condition
of the three prisoners being held in
his Jail on the charge of the murder
of Ex-Governor Steunenberg, Charles
H. Meyer, William D. Haywood and
George A. Pettibone, the sheriff said:
"They all seem to be all right ex-
cept Meyer. He is still sick and stays
pretty close to the fire. But I think
he is better than he was a few days
ago."
Have any arrangements been made
for more carefully guarding the Jail
than formerly?" was asked.
= The sheriff said that four extra
deputies had been sworn in for that
purpose, so that now the night guard
at the Jail has been practically dou-
bled. and extra precautions are taken
for guarding the institution daytimes.
There was rumor to the effect that
some of the Idaho state militia would
be called upon to guard the Canyon
county Jail, but that story was re-
futed yesterday by Governor Frank R.
GoOding.

Little Injury to Idaho Sheep.

BOISE, Idaho March 21.-Reports
received from all parts of the state
last evening were to the effect that.
as a general thing, the losses so far to
the sheep men have been very light.
Only in spots. in particular localities,
have the sheep yet been turned on the
range, and the losses to the woOlgrow-
ers will not be heavy. The same facts
are true with the cattlemen.
There is, of course, grave danger
that if the cold weather continues for
a week, or two weeks longer, the sup
ply of feed will give out and great loss
will ensue. But there is, in most To-
calities, enough feed left to last the
nacks for at least a week or ten days,
and if the weather turns warm so that
the sheep can get out on the range
the losses with be practically moth
ing.

extent of the law, and that they were
confident that the courts OF Idaho

Ranqe Stock Suffers.

POMEROY, March 21.-Range stock
has suffered severely from the intense
cold. At Peola the loss in cattle was
considerable, as feed was scarce and
the cattle poor. On the Pataha nat
south of town. and on the ranges north
and east of PomerOy there has been
considerable loss in live stock, espec-
tally among fresh cows and young
calves Some of the farmers fear the
grain has been badly hurt on the ex-
posed slopes, but to what extent will
not be known for some time. Where
the snow was deep the farmers are
satisfied that the additional moisture
will be a help.
