St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 28. - A special from Butte, Mont, says: "Word has been received here of a triple killing which occurred at Sweet Grass, on the international boundary. Yesterday William Long, a cowboy for the "F" outfit, who is also said to be a whisky smuggler, killed a mounted policeman named Richardson. The two men met near the middle butte of Sweet Grass, had several drinks, got into a row and the killing resulted. After the shooting of Richardson Long went to C. B. Toole's ranch, where he is alleged to have killed Ira Brown, foreman of the sheep ranch. The latter, before dying, shot Long, killing him almots instantly. Long's mother lives in Los ángeles, Cal."
