Unusual interest was taken III wall

prices showed slight changes. except for
Union Pacific, which was up "a, and

in early dealings, and advanced % to
11s, the latter being Louisville and
Nashville; Lacka8anna gained l. The
advance was checked at the end of
fifteen minutes, and a general drive
was made at the whole list. resulting in
a decline of 25s for Lake Shore, . for
st. Paul and Northern Pacific prefer

the list. The decline was checked, and
at IL O'Clock the market was active and
generally firm.

necessarily follow. Others think the
bulls, who are favored by plenty of

The first tin smelted in the United

1t now appears probable that this

year little tin ore was taken out in
the course of development work in
Dakota, Wyoming, Virginia and Ala

was few hundred pounds from ore OF

There is one thing certain, and that
is that the Canadian Pacific railroad
company did not build their road with
the single purpose Of getting the land
grants. They propose to control all
the business that legitimately belongs
to that route, and as much more as
possible, as is evinced by the methods
they have adopted Of canvassing the
tributary country. One Of their live
agents, Mr.. w. E. Belcher, arrived in
Maiden last Monday, having CON-
pleted thorough canvass Of the cattle
ranges throughout the Judith and
Missouri river portions Of Montana.
In an interview we ascertained that
several Of the Judith cattle men, and
a majority Of Missouri valley, intend
shipping to market over his route,
driving to Maple Geek station, about
100 miles north Of IT. Assinaboine.
Mr.. Belcher claims superior trail,
luxuriant grass and good water through
to the railroad and says the route is
equipped with the most practical cattle
cars manufactured, while rates will be
as cheap as those Of the N. P. R'y
from any point in northern Montana.
Being his first trip this Tar south Of his
line he is surprised at the productive

The late rains filling the rivers and
creeks to overlooking, has demon
strated that the only practical bridge
that this county can put in, with any
assurance Of remaining a reasonable
time, is the Howe truss. Though cost
ing considerable more than ordinary
peer, frame structures, the saving in
repairs and rebuilding Of washed out
bridges, in five years, will pay the
difference and leave the county with
bridges good for ten years or more Of
ordinary usage.
To the credit of our commissioners,
they have let a contract to FrankVree-
land, of Bozeman, for the construction
of the bridge across the Musselshell, at
Lavina, that calls for Howe truss, and
to cost $4,000. That means perma-
nency and no more money wasted at
that particular crossing on inferior
bridges. The commissioners of Vel
lowstone have let a contract for the
construction Of similar bridge at
Half Breed creek, Roundup P. o., to
Sid Erwin, Of Billings, to cost s.. 500.
When completed, as they will be before
fall, there will be no further delays Of
from ten days to two weeks, Of freight

as for the last three weeks.
So far, SO good, but as claimed by
the ARGUS two months ago, there Is
no point on the Musselshell that is in
greater need Of a first-class bridge
than at the Musselshell P. o. crossing
on the Junction road. Nine tenths O
the freight into the Judith country
from the Northern Pacific road, a
present, comes that way. That par

Senator Sherman, who has just re-

ton Of silver, he said: Nobody
wanted to demonetize silver and there
was no danger of that being done.

would have the same value as gold

A Valuable Problem.

The Yuma Sentinel says that the yucca plant is to be utilized in the manufacture of paper. The London Telegraph, which uses from I5o to 200 miles in length each day. have purchased a large tract in M3jave district, California, where the yucca abounds, and will have the plant shipped to some point on the Cobra, do river, where il will be ground in- to pulp, then shipped by rail to New Orleans, and thence by sea to Liver pool. The saving, it Is claimed, will be very great. The plant will probI. bly, be shipped 10 Yuma to be ground into pulp, and the large quantities of yucca on the desert soItn of Yuma will also be utilized in connection with the immense flats of wild hemp, the pulp of which will make excellent paper, while the fiber of the hemp VIII make superior article of cloth.
