was convicted of underwe Ching frauds
and sentenced to two years in the fed.

John ID. Stanchfeld for the defense
claimed that under the federal statutes
splitter, as a convicted man, could not
testify.
The sensation of the trial was then
created by the declaration that Spitzer
had been Pardoned by President Taft
va that he could testify.
Splitter talked freely of the various
methods OF affecting the scales and
demonstrated in court the use of small
bags OF lead placed on the beams of
scales. lie said that it was also prac.

Of scales for the same purpose.
When the deputy surveyor of the
port, Vail, took office these methods
were abandoned and the use of steel
corset springs was begun. lie said the
use of these springs stopped after the
sugar trust had paid a rebate to the
government as a result of a federal
suit. These devices caused the recorded
weights to drop as much as 40 pounds

"Did you arrange n system of signal

asked the prosecutor.

Herd Of Shaggy Bison Increasing on
The Blair Ranch Near Dalhart

Race suicide is not yet menace to
a few surviving herds of buffalo in
the west. On the Blair Ranch near
Dalhart the herd is multiplying with
gratifying rapidity.
The first Of January Mr.. Blair had
thirty.one head. Eleven calves have
since been born and all of them are
thriving. There are forty.two head
on his ranch which is now the second
largest in Texas and possibly in the
entire country.
II is reported that Colonel Goodnight
will move his buffaloes to Mexico at
an early date. II he should do so Mr..
Blair will have the largest herd in the
state.
When asked az TO the commercial val
ne Of the buffalo Mr. Blair said that
the meat finds n ready sale at 50 cents
per pound, robe in good condition
sells for two hundred and fifty dollars
and upward, while mounted head
sells ut from two hundred and ffty to
one thousand dollars.
All the old buffaloes are in good con.
dition anu as they have ample range,
feed and water it is his expectation that
the number Of these rare animals on
his ranch will continue to increase, and
ne will spare no effort TO prevent the
extinction Of the once noble monarch of
the plains.
