COW MOOSE KILLED.
Animal In Whitingham Had Previous
" Been Wounded.

Brattleboro, Jan, l0.--All doubt as
to the identity Of the animal which
has been roaming about in the town of
Whitingham since the deer hunting
season was removed Tuesday when
County Fish and Game Warden X. Ill.
Metcalf and others from BratIeboro,
who went to jacksonville to inves-
tigate came upon a COW moose which
had been wounded by rifle bullet
and was down, probably never to arise
again. Warden Metcalf quickly con-
firmed the reports from residents Of
Jacksonville and Whitingham that the
animal was a COW moose, there being
no doubt whatever after getting one
look at the moose.
The hunt was concluded without ex-
citing incident other than the excite
ment attendant upon intense interest
manifested by the people for miles
around. II had been hoped to take the
animal alive. but as it was found that
her right hip was fractured the only
thing to do was to put her out Of mis-
ery. which was done witht rifle bull
let in the head.
When the moose first was seen in
the town of Nottingham several weeks
ago she showed no signs of injury. but
was not wild, which indicated that
she had escaped from some preserve.
Reports have been current that one or
more moose escaped last fall from
Harry Payne Whitnds's game pre-
serve in the Berkshire mountains in
Massachusetts,.

tiles in China formed the subject OF
discussion for to-day's meeting OF the

Except for brief statements by sec.
retary Hughes and Sir Auckland
Geddes in submitting them to the com
mittee, neither the American resolu-
tion, by which the powers would re-
cord their hope for an eventual unifica
ton of transportation lines in China
under Chinese control, nor the British
to pledge the powers against
practices on roads un-
der their control, was discussed yester-
day. and it remained to-day for the
other powers to record their attitude
on both.
While in neither proposal was there
any exclusion Of either the Shantnng
or Manchurian lines, in approaching
the railroad proposals the committee
agreed to the suggestion of Secretary
Hughes that the question Of the Chi
nese eastern railway be referred to a
special subcommittee of far eastern
experts for separate consideration. II
has been indicated that retention Of
the present control of this time, ira
versing the border between Manchuria
and Siberia, by an inter -allied commits

Of the unsettled conditions in Russia.
