made on the point and the money paid
over to the man who had staked
against, Hogan. A reporter OF the

MI. George Holland laSt nlgnt
played Lord Dundreary in ''Our Amer
lean Cousin to highly delighted au.
dience, 1t was called for by special
request by many of those who think
hls Dundreary equal to the best. The
acquisition to the company of two
charming actresses, who joined Hol-
land at Helena, from New York, Miss
Sybil Johnston and Miss Julia Aiken,
make one of the finest companies Of
comedy ever in Montana. Through
out their engagement of five nights and
two matinees they have played to de.
lighted houses every time, receiving
the heartiest applause and approba-
tion.-Helena Herald.
Our American Cousin will be played
in Livingston on Friday. evening.
Everywhere the Holland company has
received the highest encomiums, and
it's personnel and the plays presented
are of higher order than Montana
audiences are able to attend very fire.
quently The company will draw big
houses in Livingston and those who
intend to be present the first night
should ensure their seats by buying
their tickets at the postoffice in ad-
vance.
There appears to be little doubt
among those in position to be well
informed on the subject that Wells,
Fargo & Co.'s express will shortly es-
tablish Offices at all important tows on
the Northern Pacific line. They have
announced their intention of doing so
and are sufficiently powerful to carry
out their determination, even in spite
of the Northern Pacific corporation.
1t may 50 result that Wells, Fargo
& Co. will gain control of the entire
express business on this road. 1t will
be remembered that few
months ago the Northern
Pacific. railroad company transferred
it's express business to separate cor
poration of which Z. F. Oakes is the
head, and he and a very few others
the principal stockholders. This move
is said to have excited the opposition
of the shareholders OF the Northern
Pacific who, in losing the express
business lost 4 considerable item in
the earnings of the road. and who now
demand that the business shall be
taken from the little ring that reaps
the profits and leased to some company
that is moi portion of the Northern
Pacific. AS Wells. Fargo & Co.. are
bound to come upon the road in any
event, it Is probable that they will
succeed the Northern Pacific Express
Co. in the entire business.

BRUSSELS, Aug. SIN the trial of Canon
Bernard, charged with abstracting papers
and securities representing several mil
lions of francs from the Episcopal palace
of the diocese of Tournay, counsel for the
defendant declared his client had docu-
ment from the pope which empowered him
to take measures he deemed best to con-
ceal the treasure. He could not have sup
posed such order meant he was only to
conceal it IN Tournay. Canon Bernard,
he said, had been made the scape
goat for Bishop Rousseaux, who had
written him while he was in New York,
virtually ordering him to continue to con-
ceal the funds. Bishop Resseaux believed
he conld avoid meeting in the court of
claims Manaqu Dumont, former bishop of
the diocese, by sending the funds beyond
the reach of judicial power. If he had
been successful, he would have Unidentified
Canon Bernard, who had merely attempt
ed an evasion of the civil law, and had moi
committed a criminal offense. The CASE
has caused a very painful feeling in re-

GREAT BRITAIN.

LIVERPOOL, Aug. S.-The main charge
against O'Heolihy, Featherston, Deasy and
Flanagan is treason and felony, similar to
that contained in the indictment found in
Bow street police court some time ago
against DR.. Gallagher and his fellow con-
spirators.
At the trial to-day policemen testified
they saw Dalton watching Westminster
abbey, house of parliament and Lambeth
palace, and he was taking notes.
Varions witnesses testified that Dalton
was passenger in the Celtic in Febauary
under the name of johnson, and he had
been in America ten years. He was also
called OConnor. When arrested in Bowles'
reading room, London, he had memoranda
concerning the manufacture of explosives.
He also had a roll of paper similar to some
paper around a number of brass taps
found on Deasy. Experts testify that the
explosive articles which DeasY and Flan-
nigan had when arrested were similar to
those used in the attempt to blow
up the Office of the London
Times. They said the articles
in question, were not suitable for indus
trial purposes. Informer Lamie testified
that he was sworn into the Fenian brother
hood in 1867 by Sylvester Kingston. He
had sworn to assume arms at a moments
notice in defense of the Irish republic
and obey his superiors. He had also sworn
never to divulge the secrets of the brother
hood, on pain of death. He had attended
drills, at which sometimes seventy eight
persons were present. He had attended
some drills this year. The counsel for the
defense objected to Lamie's evidence, on
the ground of irrelevancy, but the obiec
tion was overruled.

LONDON, Aug. 6.-The British agent at
Pieter Martizburg believes King Cetewayo
is still alive, and that the report of his
death was put in circulation for the pur-
pose of continuing the agitation in Zulu
land.
Ashley, under-secretary for the colonies,
announced in the commons this afternoon
that the government was making efforts to
learn if the report was true or false.
LONDON, Aug. S.-Advices from Ekateri-
no slope. Russia, where the demonstration
against the Jews was made on the I'd and
Sd inst, state that three colonies of Cos
sacks had arrived for the preservation of
order. Eighteen of the 100 persons ar
rested for participation in the demonstra-
tions, are already placed on trial before
the military. Many innocent persons who
were wounded during the rioting, have
since died. It has transpired that no
Jews were injured, as they escaped, hav-
ing timely warning that attacks would be
made upon them.

ST. ALsANs, VT, Aug. 8.-Regarding the
affairs of the Vermont National Bank and
Trust company, Treasurer Burgess states
from what he knows of its condition that
the Trust company undoubtedly will be
able to pay its depositors fully in time
but could not now stand any extensive run.
He could not say when they would be able
was doing all in his power to make the de-
positors secure, and declared that all his
transactions were straightforward. The
whole question seems to be whether
Barlow's creditors will push
Brainard to the wall or
are lenient. Barlow has left for New
York. It is reported that he expected to
obtain relief by the disposal of Southeast
ern. It is claimed, however, by Montreal
papers that he is handicapped by an ar
rangement with the Canadian Pacific,
which virtually owns the Southeastern,
and no move can be made without its con-
sent. A Montreal paper says an offer of
So, 100000 was made for the Southeastern
road, exclusive of the rolling stock, and it
is understood that matters will be soon ar
ranged by this offer being accepted. It is
believed here if the sale of the road can be
negotiated the depositors in the National
bank will be safe.
Finance Inspector Dewey, who is exam
ining the Trust company's books, is in
clined to the belief that the depositors will
be cared for, as ne thinks the only trouble
is Brainard's endorsement for Barlow,
which may be met without wrecking the
company. No serious trouble is reported
yet among the St. Albans merchants,
though some have been hard pressed on
account of dealing in checks on the Yer
mont National. The First National is in
condition to help bridge over the disaster,
and can easily raise 100000. The fnan-
cial standing of the owners puts them to
trouble, on account of the extra demand
beyond question. Gov. Hendees' exami-
nation of the Vermont National bank is
not yet completed, but nothing has been
found to change the opinion that the de-
positors will be paid fully.
BOSTON, Aug. S.-Henry Daniels, stock
broker, has suspended in consequence of

Late this afternoon the business friends
of Watson came to his assistance and it is
hoped an arrangement can be made which
will enable him to resume tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8,-Plans are being
prepared at the treasury department for
silver vaults to accommodate the excessive
accumulation of silver dollars. 1t is pro-
posed to locate one vault at the New
Orleans mint and the other in the base

SMUGGLING CHINESE.
The acting secretary of the treasury to-
night received telegram from the col
lector of customs at Tacoma, Washington
Territory, stating that his officers, with the
assistance of Rev. Feusmaster Walcott, had
captured sloop engaged in running
Chinese across the line from British
Columbia. Two smugglers we're arrested,
but a Chinese passenger escaped. The
collector also stated that nearly one hun
dred Chinese landed at various points on
the north frontier in boats and Indian
canoes within the past few days, and he
is powerless to prevent these
landings unless his force is largely increas-
ed. Secretary Folger will be back in q
few days and the subject will be brought
to his attention at once. 1t was explained
by the officers of customs that the law
provides that no Chinese laborers be per
mitted to enter the United States by land
unless producing to the proper officer OF
customs certificate required by Chinese

TAntPERING WITH THE WIRES.

NEW YORK, Aug. 8.-Last night another
onslaught was made upon the wires of the
Western Union Telegraph company, the
consequence of which was far more disas-
trous than that of the preceding night.
Press Agent Somerville, of the Western
Union, said this morning that twenty-nine
wires on one route and fourteen on another,
between Passaic and Elizabethport, N. j.,
had been cut. These were wires to Phila-
delphia and other points in the South
ern division. Twenty of the Mutual Union
wires were cut between Kingsbridge and
Scarsdale at Tarrytown. Twelve Hudson
river wires are down and eighteen wires in
the Eastern circuits were destroyed be-
tween Port Chester and Greenwich, IConn.
Gross arms were sawed off in the latter in
stances and the wires were cut besides
The worst wires to go down were those of
the eastern circuit, which were lost about
11:30 O'clock last night. The others went
down shortly after midnight. A lagre force
of line men were sent out to repair the
damage, and the lines are being repaired
as rapidly as possible. The cutting of the
wires interfered with others across which
they fell so that the greatest confusion was
created. For long time this morning,
said Somerville, we were greatly delayed.
Superintendent Humstone estimated that
when work began this morning one-half of
the wires to Philadelphia, and quarter OF
those to the west, and one-third
of those in eastern circuits could
not be used. The whole mum
Der of wirescut..Was ninety-eight, but nearly
200 were rendered useless in consequence.
A telegram from Fort Washington said a
gang of men had interfered with the line
men who were repairing the wires there
and police protection had been asked should
the attempt be repeated. No clue has yet
been discovered of the authors of the mis-
chief, although the greatest vigilance i:
| being exercised. The Western Union ha;
employed detectives to ferret out the
| perpetrators of the wire cutting. It is
generally the opinion that the striking line
men are answerable for the injuries. Tht
company are considerably put out by thi
new method of warfare. At the head
quarters of the Brotherhood of Telegraph
ers it was emphatically denied that tn
cutting was being done by the line men.

NEW YORK, Aug. 8.-The startling de-
crease in bank clearings for the last few
weeks is the effect of the telegraphers'
strike. The bank exchanges of twenty
eight clearing houses for the week end
ing July 81, amounted to $1,OO7, $40, ,455.
For the week ending July 28, they fell off
to 1926, ,504 ,708 and for the week ending
August 4, to S796, sos, ,223. The clearances
for these same twenty eight clearing hous-
es for the corresponding weeks last year
were in the neighborhood of 81 100000, 900,
showing decrease for last week of 33 per
cent. 1t will not do to account for all this
shrinkage by saying that the speculative
trade has been exceedingly dull, the stock
market has been in a state of profound
stagnation, the movement of prices has
| been insignificant, and the advent of the
| business more insignificant. What has
produced the rapid drop during the past
three weeks clearly indicates the cause.
| It is time that the summer dullness was
settling our trade throughout the country
before the operators strike. But no one
who has watched the volume of trade for
the present year believes that had things
been allowed to follow the ordinary course
the depression in New. York would have
been sufficient to Offset the increased vol
ume of business at other points. But the
strike unsettled everything.
