NO CLUE
BelitV d That Joh i N. Tis
diile Was Mnriiei'Cd
No clue has been discovered as to
the whereabouts of Jobn N. Ti$
da!e, the Snettisham mine owner, who
recently disappeared in New York. It
is now believed he was murdered. The
following dispatch from Cheyenne,
Wyo., might be an explanation:
'?It is the firm belief of Cheyenne
friends of John N. Tisdale, the wealthy
mining man, who mysteriously disaj)- j
peared in New York under pecular cir- ,
cumstances, that he has been murdered. '
"These who are familiar withTis
dale's past life and who have been bis|
intimate friends, assert that he is the i
victim of a ranee feud wb:ch started 15
years ago. At that time Tisdale was I
one of the le.iders of a party of large !
stockmen who, with 50 border gun
fighters, took a special train and went
to Johnson county, whore all small
stock raisers were driven out. Two of
them were killed.
"Tisdale and his friends declared that
the others were all thieves, while the '
banished men asserted that the Tisdale [
crowd wanted to gob lie the range. J
"A woman intimate with theTisdales
says that a man named Iiay, a brother
of one of the stock raisers killed in the
Johnson County raid, has followed Tis- 1
dale for years, even trailing him !
through A'aska, and she is positive I
that Ray has at last succeeded in kill- i
ing his enemy in New York."
