FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2003 A last minute deal was brokered on Thursday to try and save livestock belonging to two Western Shoshone sisters in Nevada who have defied federal orders to pay millions of dollars in grazing fees. The deal would allow Mary and Carrie Dann to transfer ownership of their horses to a California man. They would still be responsible for paying the fees, which they say are illegal under the 1863 Treaty of Ruby Valley. The Bureau of Land Management was rounding up 800 horses yesterday.
