STRAY LIVESTOCK

Horses and Cattle from
Running at Large

Horses and cattle, not to men

lawns, destroying flowerbeds and
gardens for homeowners, a and

ficers, whether the loose stock be-

the opinion of the city attorney in
regard to enforcement of the or

Numerous complaints have been
lodged with Mayor E. W. Allen
about the horses and cattle at

being that of cattle belonging to
a Boyd rancher. Remembering

GOLD REPORTS
STIR INTEREST
IN COOKE AREA
Rich Tonnage Obtained by
'Scooping Grass Roots
On Red Mountain

Reports of recent gold
production in the central
section of the New World
mining district near Cooke
have caused holders of DOR
mant claims to study their
locations with new interest,
and have sent parties from
Red Lodge over the noun
tains to investigate descrip-
tons of "pay dirt" said to
produce as high as from
5000 to 5000 a ton.
Actually they are scrap
ing it off the top of the
ground at places-not pure
gold, but gold-bearing top
soil and clay that has been
discovered to have a heavy
content of fine gold.
This was the observation Of DR..
J. C. F. Siegfriedt and others who
Investigated activity at the claim
being operated by the McLaran
CONSOLIDATED Cone company in
terests.
This claim, the New Years Gift,
is being operated on lease from
J. C. Villas of Livingston, by the
McLaren interests, whose repre-
sentativSs last summer made q
survey of the district, sank test
pits, and almost accidentally dis
covered the possibility of produc-
ing gold by "scooping the grass
roots. 1t is located about five
miles north of Cooke, on the west
face of Red Tor Fisher) mountain,
near the headwaters of the Still
water river. A road from Cooke
approaches the claim up Miller
creek and through Daisy pass.
More than a score of men are
employed on the New Years Gift,
scooping and loading the residual
silt and clay, which is trucked out,
and shipped to the smelter at East
Helena for reduction. McLaren is
reported to be averaging $40 a
ton, and the value Of one three
ton load was estimated at close to
$1,000. Prospectors and miners in
the New World district ordinarily
calculate hat a $50 average is
profitable.
The central section of the New
World district is an area of about
25 square miles north and east of
Cooke, which includes Henderson
mountain, Crown butte, Red noun
tain and the south slope of Scotch
Bonnet mountain. In the Red
mountains Scotch Bennett vicinity,
claims r held by ]. E. Wholey,
the Ross property, the Yellow
stone Mining company, the Glen
garry property, the Villas prop
erty and others. The Glengarry is
reported as using the same pro-
cess of surface gold production on
the slope of Scotch Bennett.

REPORT PROGRESS
ON ADVANCEMENT
OF CITY PROJECTS
Plans and Specifications
For Lighting System
Almost Ready

Progress toward accomplish
ment of the latest city projects
was reported to the Red Lodge
council Tuesday by the special
committee on plans for the munic-
ipal power and lighting system
and the public tourist camp. Def
mite specifications for construc-
ton of the lighting system are al
most ready for action by the
council, and a site for the auto
camp has been selected, the report
said.
The report submitted to Mayor
E. w. Allen by Committeeman w.
w. Eastman, Gus B. Foltz and
Ray Houtonen follows:
"On September q, w. F,
Shelley, construction superintend-
ent of the Montana Power COM
pany, came to Red Lodge and
made a complete survey and check
up as to the conditions of the
present distribution system, and
also made a survey with the view
of making maps and estimates for
the cost Of a new distribution sys-
tenn for the city of Red Lodge.
I'VE have been informed that
these maps and plans and specifi-
cations will be ready sometime
this week, in order that the may
or and council will be able to
know exactly what the cost of a
new distribution system will be.
"The engineer advises that a To-
cation for a switchboard and new
location for the Montana Power
transformers will be advisable,
and that it would be to the city's
advantage to move these trans
formers from the present loca-
ton to a more central location of
the city. This cost will be includ-
ed in the completed estimates. We
would suggest that a special COM
mittee be authorized to determine
a suitable location for the new
switchboard and transformers,
and the cost of building and lot.
GAS soon as that is received, we
would suggest that a special meet
ing of the council be called for the
purpose of ascertaining the advis-
ability of the next step in this
project.
"As to the tourist park, your
committee has made considerable
investigation, and we have found
a location which, if it can be pur-
chased reasonably, in our Judge
ment, would be the proper place.
Steps have been taken to have the
ownership of this desirable loca-
ton ascertained, and if it can be
purchased at a reasonable price,
we would suggest that the city
Immediately take such action.
"As far as available records are
concerned, the property we have
in mind belongs to the N. w. I.
company, yet the title. is not clear.
The N. W. |. has been asked for
a price per acre on the portion
that your committee thinks advis-
able and desirable for a tourist
park"

BRIDGE MAY Be
Government Job
Seek Federal Aid to Build
Swan Carlson Bridge on
Clark's Fork

Construction of the Swan Carl
son bridge over the Clark's Fork
river by federal funds under the
public works or federal aid pro-
grams is being sought by the
Carbon county commissioners in
an effort to spare the county the
expense of building a much need
ed bridge that was destroyed last
spring.
Members of the state highway
commission and the commission
FRS inspected the Clark's Fork
bridges last week, and it has been
learned that the commission has
given its recommendation that the
bridge be built, if the bureau of
public roads will include its cost
in the feeder road allotment to
Carbon county.
No bids on the Swan Carlson
bridge, called for by the county
commissioners, were considered
Thursday, the action being post
poned on the hope that the struc-
ture can be built as a govern
mental project.
Other bridges on either side of
Belfry call for attention, but the
Swan Carlson is the most import
ant link on the valley road, in the
opinion of the commissioners. Eff
forts by Clark's Fork people to
place the Bridger-Belfry road I'M
der the federal aid program have
not met with encouraging results.
A possible exception may be made
in the case of the Carlson bridge,
although the structure does not
lie on a designated federal aid
system, nor on the f~eeder-road
route sought by the county under
the public works program.

MAN HELD HERE
ON CHARGES Of
BELFRY ROBBERY
Deadly Explosive Is Found
In Suitcase, Shipped
To Great Falls

William James,, 50, ex-
convict and former murder
suspect, is being held in the
county Jail at Red Lodge, to
answer charges of breaking
into the Belfry postoffice
and robbing the safe, Sep
TENDER 80.
Arrested at Great Falls,
Saturday, on a tip sent by
Carbon county officers,
James was brought to Red
Lodge Sunday, arraigned in
the justice court of e. B.
Provinse, held in default of
$4,000 bond.
A suitcase that had contained
half a pint of dangerously ex-
plosive nitroglycerine, and that
had been shipped from Red Lodge
to Great Falls and carelessly
handled and thrown about by a
number of persons, was brought
back as evidence by County At
torney E. P. Conwell and Under
sheriff Bill H. Moore, who escort
ed James here from Great Falls.
Officers and inspectors who *
amined the Belfry postoffice after
the robbery observed that the safe
had been blown in a professional
manner-the safe door bolts hav-
ing been clearly sheered, but the
door not torn from its hinges,
leading to the belief that the rob-
Der was no amateur.
Jack R. McFate, Carbon county
sheriff, soon after the robbery
heard talk of a man at the G. C. G.
camp FIJI on Rock creek who vas
unaccountably FLUSH" with his
money, hat this man had Depart
ed for Great Falls. Sheriff Nc
Fate and Undersheriff Bill Moore
dug into criminal records, then
sent descriptions to Great Falls.
Officers there, to whom James
was previously known, lost little
time in arresting him.
The name James used here
abouts was A. Roach, although he
has a number of aliases such as
Harry Mitchell, O'Connell and
VIM. Mortimer James. He is a
slender man, of dark complexion,
laxative and ~personable.
AT Red Lodge he ingratiated
himself with several people, in
Guiding Capt. M. L. Young of the
Beartooth c. G. G. company.
About a month ago he attached
himself to the conservation COM
pany. After the Belfry robbery,
he withdrew from the camp, leav-
ing Red Lodge with an army over
coat and two dollars given him by
friends at the camp.
He was arrested at Great Falls
by officers who were startled to
find that the suitcase, which he
had shipped by express, contained
a bottle of nitroglycerine, wrapped
loosely in a suit Of underwear,
