in regard to Montana" remarked District
Attorney Pemberton to party OF personal
friends last evening. ''as to the little value
placed on human life: | have kept close

and | have been surprised at the small
number OF fatal affrays in the Territory
And this is especially true as to this dis

populous in Montana. During my term as
District Attorney, only one man has been
hanged-l Chinaman at Missoula for kill

Under the new deal, copper ore will be sent

The Opium Treaty.

LONDON. May 2G.-Thc new opium treaty
between England and China, is not conclu-
drd, us stated yesterday, but is almost set
tied. This new convention assumes the
lorm oi AN additional article to the Che Foo
treaty y,and abolishes all barriers heretofore
existing against the free diffusion OF opium
throughout the Chinese Empire. The treaty
settles IA uniform rate of 60 taels per chest,
and maintains the existing custom duty OF
80 tarls. This will allow opium to pass
freely throughout China. 1t is probable
that China will extend similar system OF

cloth across his shoulders, an during his passage
along the streets he was careful to keep this
cloth around his neck. Three days ago a man
went into Hong Lees laundry to get some cloth
ing. The strange Chinaman arose from a couch
under the counter. His scanty clothing revealed
a horrible sore on the side of his neck. Through
his thin shirt his afflicted arms and back could
be seen. They were in the same condition as
his neck. The man who had called for The
clothing withdrew in alarm. and FASTENED to
find Mr.. Hartz. a medical friend, who has Just
graduated from the mt IDEAL school at Louisville.
Mr.. Hartz went to the laundry. Again the
afflicted Chinaman arose from the couch under
the counter, ready to wait upon the callers.
THAT is a case of leprosy," said Hartz, as soon
as he saw the Chinaman. Hartz claims to be
familiar with the appearance of lepers. having
gained his knowledge of the disease, he says,
while on a visit to San Francisco, where he saw
a great many afflicted with the disease. At
Hong Lees laundry, last night. two Cinnamon
present claimed that the supposed leper had
gone away during the afternoon, they did not
know where.
The Department Of Health caused a medical
examination TO be made to day of the Chinaman
alleged to be suffering from leprosv. The YER
dict of the physicians was to the effect that the
case was not leprosy. but a malignant combina-
ton of ~scrofula and syphilitic tuberculosis.
