CHEYENNE, Wyo Nov. 23. (Special Telegram.) A. A. Spaugh. a wealthy cat- Icroan of Manvlllo, Wyo., was convlctod this ovenlng In tho United States court of Illegally fencing government land and will bo sentenced by Judge Itlncr next Monday. The penalty Is a fino of from $1 to $1,000 or a term of imprisonment In the cunty Jail of from ono day to ono year, or both. The testimony for the prosecution tended to show that Spaugh bad built about seven ty-five miles of fence, which enclosed a tract of over 200,000 ncres. near Manvlllo, a largo portion of which la government land; that Spaugh had kept a force of mounted and armed men to guard this fence and keep other stockmen frm entering the' pasturo, and that no ana nis men naa ire qucntly made displays with firearms to threaten others. The defense admitted the construction of a large part of tho feme In controversy, but sought to show that said fence did not make a coraploto enclosure. Testimony was also Introduced to show that stock owned by others had been permitted to graze on tho big tract and that tho only times ob jection was raised was when stock en croached upon tho deeded land of defend ant. Government officials are highly elated over the successful termination of this, tho first prosecution In a campaign that will bo waged against the alleged "land grab bers" with vigor. Tho result of tho convic tion, It Is thought, will be far-reaching and ranchmen will at once comraenco tear ing down tho thousands of miles of fence that they built and which enclose govern ment land. Spaugh may appeal his, case, but It not thougnt probable. HORNLESS BULL KILLS HIM Wcnsel Kreltslnixer of I.raterTllle Untied So Severely that Ho Fall to IteooTer, YANKTON, S. D., Nov. 23. (Special.)
