"Black Jack,' left Benton for the North
west territory with an outfit worth from
$4,000 to $4,000, and on the trip was
drowned in Belly river. Being without

charge by the government officials and
converted into cash. 1t can yet be Sc
cured by the heirs, if any, and anybody

OTTAWA, October 17.-Sir A. r. Gait
will give the necessary notice In the Off
cial gazette tomorrow that he will apply
TO parliament next session for a charter to
construct railway from the coal fields.N.
W. 7. to the international boundary
line in the direction of Fort Benton, Mon
tana. Up to the present time parliament
has refused to ratify any railway charter
which would admit Of railway being
constructed beyond fifty miles uorth Of
the international boundary. But now
that the Canadian Pacific, whose interests
the government was endeavoring to pro-
tect, is about completed, it is understood
that the government will offer no opposi-
ton to Galt's scheme.

TO TREAT FOR PEACE.
a Delegation Of Crows en- Route to the
P1egan Agency to Sue for Peace and
Cessation Of Horse Stealing.

A detachment of troops d, 1st cavalry,
Of Fort Custer, arrived in the city Satur-
day evening accompanied by about twen-
ty of the head chiefs of the Crows. Ell
route to the Piegan agency. The object
Of their mission is to treat with the Pie
gans for peace and cessation of horse
stealing. The Grows will propose an ex-
change Of stolen horses-that is, they will
give up all the horses they have stolen
from the Piegans if in turn the latter will
surrender the animals captured from the
Grows. In addition to this it is proposed
that treaty of peace be ratified, after the
Indian custom, and horse stealing be-
tween the two tribes cease.
1t is prt bable the Piegans, who are the
most adroit horse stealers in the world,
will assent to these propositions, smoke
the pipe Of peace, join their Crow brothers
in big feast-and then set the chiefs
from the Yellowstone country afoot before
they get home.
Some years ago the Piegans and Gros
Ventres had big council here at Fort
Benton and concluded peace arrange
ments. But while the council was going
on war party of Piegans were cached in
a coulee near town waiting to hammer
the unsuspecting Gros Ventres, and we
believe they did it in good shape. The
present undertaking will result about the
same WaV,

Crossed the Frontier.

RoUMELIA, October 16.-A large force
of troops has crossed the Bulgarian from
tier.
LONDON, October 16.-The Servians
have crossed the Bulgarian frontier near
Charki. They are advancing toward Sofia
and are now near the Dragoman pass.
King Milan is in command. A panic pre-
walls at Sofia. Four battallions of infantry
have gone to defend the Dragonan pass.
They have with them only two batteries
OF small field guns. There is no Rulgari-
an heavy artillery nearer to the scene of
disturbance than that at Sstova and Rus
tchuk. 1t is expected that Sofia will be
captured by coup de main.
Austria has warned King Milan that
whatever may be the issue of the present
trouble, it will be useless for him to ex-
pcct support from Austria. The railway
companies in Austria and Hungary and
the Danube Navigation company have
been notified to prepare for the transpor-
tation of troops and munitions of war.

Turkey and Bulgaria.

| CONsTANTINOPLE, October 14.-The
Porte is awaiting the final reply of the
powers before taking decisive action.
Some of the cabinet recommend recogni-
tion of the Bulgarian union; others are of
the opinion that Greece and Servia will
nized. The military party, viewing the
silence of the powers as a sign that they
are unagreed as to what course to pursue,
urge that Bulgaria be invaded; that the
Great Balkans be occupied; that the Bull
garian town of Widda be given to Servia,
and that the districts of Hermaub. Hos
kanli and Pomak be siezed as war indem-
nifty. The Sultah hesitates between these
divergent counsels, leaning rather to the
policy OF conciliation. Meanwhile the
military preparations are unabated.
krupp has been urged to hasten the de-
livery guns, payment for which has
been guaranteed. Everything indicates
an early invasion of Bulgaria. En- leading
Turkish circles the opinion is expressed
that the majority of the powers are inclin-
ed to refuse to recognize the Bulgarian
union, as they consider that that course
would be dangerous to European peace.
The Marquis de Noalles, French embas-
sador, and Herr Won Radowitz, German
ambassador, express astonishment that the
Turkish government did not send troops
to eastern Roumelia at the beginning of
the trouble. The other foreign ministers
are less outspoken.

bis last moments. His face retained a
perfectly natural expression and bears no

MIR. Hershfield's Opinion.

1t is pleasing to know that Mr.. +. H,
Hershfield, who is generally regarded as
as one OF the most sagacious business men
OF Montana, departs with most favorable
impression of the river metropolis. He
SAID TO our reporter that he had heard Ben
ton was dull, and from some reports one
might infer that it was almost dead. He
was pleased to find that no such state Of
affairs obtained. On the contrary, our
merchants are doing a better business than
they have for two years, and can probably
make better business showing at the end
OF the year than the dealers of anv other
town in Montana. Money is easier than
It has been for some time, and i'm general
the feeling is good Mr.. HershfieId has
unlimited confidence in the future of Fort
Benton. He believes the reservation will
be opened to settlement this winter. and
that we are certain to have railroad next
season; ''and then, with the upper river
improved so as to lengthen the season of
navigation to seven months, you will have
the best town in the northwest This is
not roseate view of the situation; every
word is solid truth.
