AnteIope in MORGAN County.

Denver.-A Fort Morgan dispatch OF
the 9th inst. says: 1t is reported that
about 200 antelope are feeding in al
falfa fields six miles southwest of
here. These animals have been forced
by the heavy SHOWS to seek feed. Yes
terday two bands, one numbering 125
and the other about 75 came in from
the hills southwest of here. They
have lived in this section since the law
has been protecting them and at times
have gone into settlements south of
here. During the summer and in fact
at nearly all times of the year they
are quite tame. Some cattlemen have
complained that they roamed over win
ter pastures and spoiled the range. At
a ranch thirty miles south of here a
large bend is being fed with the ranch
mans sheep.

Boss Ruef Found Guilty.

San Francisco.-Abraham Ruef, for
mer political boss of San Francisco,
was convicted of bribery Thursday.
The verdict was returned exactly at
o'clock, the deliberations of the jury
occupying twenty-four hours. The
warnings of Judge Lawler and the Wig
ilance of the police checked any dem
onstration, although the excitement in
the court room was SO intense that
men were thiust down into their seats
or held in the grasp of detectives as
they rose to obtain a better view of
the proceedings.
BY previous agreement of counsel
that the bill of exceptions should be
settled later, the court set Dec. 18th
as the day for pronouncing judgment.
Ruef's conviction renders him liable
to maximum of fourteen years in the
penitentiary.

Extra Session on Tariff.

WasEington.-Will Fl. Taft said
Thursday that it was his belief that

PRESIDENT WOULD START GRIM

OF CANAL SCANDAL.
CALLS THEM INFAMOUS
LAWYER CONNECTED WITH PUR.
CHASE ASSERTS THERE WAS
No cRookEDNESS

WaJhington.-"I they can be
reached for criminal libel, shall try
to have them reached" said President
Roosevelt in speaking Thursday after
noon about those Americans who
have been guilty of infamous false
hood concerning the acquisition of the
property and the construction Of the
(Panama) canal itself"
1t was to the committee of 100 of the
Lakes to the Gulf Deep Waterway
Association, headed by Governor De-
neen of Illinois, received by the Pres
ident in the East room of the White
House. that he made this declaration.
Governor Deneen had presented
copy of the resolutions adopted by the
association and made few remarks
to which the President replied as fol-
lows:
81 have felt, as the governor has so
well PUT it, that no more important
service could be rendered to this coun-
try than the building of the Panama
canal between the Atlantic and the
Pacific, and one thing l am proud of
in connection with the building
of that canal is that there has
not been legitimate cause for
the frreath of scandal connected
with any feature of the proceeding.
we have cause to be ashamed of
only one set of Americans in connec-
ton with the building of the canal,
and that is of those Americans who
have teen guilty of infamous false
hood concerning the acquisition of
the property and the construction of
the canal itself. If they can be
reached for criminal libel l shall try
to have them reached. If not, at any
rate, all the facts we know, or ever
have known, are at the disposal of
each and every one of you here and of
anyone in Congress, if they wish to
see them.
Next only in Importance from the
physical standpoint to building the
Panama canal comes the question of
developing the use of our own water
ways. That must be done by the
policy of irrigation at the headwaters
up in the arid regions; and where you
come from, gentlemen, it is to be done
by making our seacoast lake a big
loop in from the Gulf of Mexico to the
Great Lakes, and we will see that
that work is done just as honestly.
just as efficiently. as the Panama ca
nal work has been done; and no work
could have been done from beginning
to. END more honestly or more eff
cientlv."
William Nelson Cromwell, the New
York lawyer and financier, who is
conversant with every phase of the
negotiations eliminating in the pur-
chase of the French canal interests
and with the dispositions of the mon
eys paid by the United States, in a
lengthy statement Thursday declared
that there was no crookedness or
grating and that so far as he knows
no Americans shared in the distribu-
tion of the purchase money, which he
says was handled and aprortioned by
the French government.

Great Finaneier Optimistic.

Chicago.-"Any man who is a bear

at the Chicago Club Thursday, pointed
to this sentiment, given to him years
ago by his father, as the basis of his
business career, and the secret of his
unfail.ng optimism in spite of panics
and reverses.
