An AttenDt to Break Jail.

New Northwest: T. Murphy, convicted
at Dillon Nov. 4. 1886, of grand larceny,
and sentenced for ten years, and James
Clark, convicted at Helena Dec. 10, 1884,
for burglary, and sentenced for years,
attempted to escape by cutting through
the ventilator of their cell. They had
evidently been working for several days,
quietly, and intended making their exit
through the roof. Warden McTague, on
his return from Helena Wednesday, made
the rounds of the prison, and not liking
the appearance of things, further search
was made yesterday morning while the
men were at breakfast, by guard Marks,
and revealed the cutting done. 1t was
the intention to escape last night. The
men were Immediately put in irons and
shut up in the dark cell. Warden Nc
Tague says the fellows will get such dose
of punishment as they will not forget for
long time. The Warden informs us that
he has received instruc tions from Marshal
Kelly to get the new wing in readiness to
receive all the territorial prisoners as soon
as possible; and he will notify all the sher-
ifs to bring on all prisoners confined in
county jails in few days.

Oil in Wyoming.

Lander, (Wyo.) correspondent to the
Rawlins Tribune: Oil and gold is still
the burden of the passing hours here.
Two oil companies each carrying twenty
100 acre claims have been formed here in
the last week and a third of the same class
is now in process. All three of these
companies operate in the Big Horn coun-
try. Another mammoth flowing spring
has been discovered in the northern part
of the country, this time IN this slope of
the Rattlesnake range. The stream of
water that drains the spring is three OF
four feet in width, and bears on its sur
face deposit of six inches of pure oil.
Its discoverers have located it. There is
great activity in the Miners Delight and
Atlantic gold districts and the rush for
quartz claims is large. Everywhere can
be seen once more the claim stakes of the
miner. The Carisa Mining company and
the Boston Gold company will at once
patent their numerous and valuable mines
in these districts Work on Carisa mine
is rapidly pushed. The new shaft is down
12O feet, contracted depth 800 feet. This
will give entirely fresh leads when drift
inc begins, as the old shaft was only 212
feet deep The French Mining company

is now wiser and sorer stomached
woman than she was before.
Review: Few people have any idea Of
the amount of business the Anaconda COM
pany makes for railroad. There is now
being received at the smelter, forty five
cars of ore, fourteen cars of coal and twelve
cars of wood every twentv-four hours,
which is entirely consumed by the smelter.
This is exclusive of the coke used by the
blast furnace This furnace alone is fed
sighty-tive tons Of silver ore and fluxlng
every day. Besides all this is the lumber
and other material used at the works in
improvements and eighteen cars of matte
which is exported each day on which the
company pays twenty-five dollars per ton
freight charges to New York.

An Express Trouble Revived.


/ Minneapolis Tribune: All readers of the
Tribune are familiar with the struggle
made in 1885 by the Wells Fargo Express
company to obtain an equal footing on the
Northern Pacific road with the Northern
Pacific Express company. They succeed
ed after time in forcing themselves upon
the road, on the hitherto accepted ruling
that a railway as common carrier could
not refuse to accord facilities to any ex-
press companies desiring to do business
over its line. 1t was upon the theory that
this position taken by the Wells-Fargo
company was tenablc in law, that they
(the Wells-Fargo company forced them
selves on many roads who were thus
obliged, no matter how unwilling. to ac-
commodate the express company and do
their work at the same rates accorded to
other lines.
Thereby is prospect now that this will
he changed and the decision of the United
States supreme court, recently filed, in
the case of the Memphis & Little Rock
Railway company VS.. The Southern Ex-
press company, i'll the opinion OF many,
will render it possible for the Northern
Pacific to oust the Wells Fargo express
from its line of road.
Col. Clough, of counsel for the Northern
Pacific, was very emphatic i'll his belief
that the company could do so. He said
to reporter yesterday that ''the decision
meant that a common carrier was not Il
common Garner of common carrier, and
that railroad was not obliged to carry
an express company unless it desired to
do So
The Northern Pacific Express is reticent
as to what steps they will take in the
matter, but it is evident that something
will be done very soon to get back, Or try,
at least, to get exclusive control of the
Northern Pacltic's business.

Striking LabOrerS,


The past week has been marked by
strikes throughout the country. The strike
of the Knights of Labor on the Gould
Southwestern system of railways on Sat
urday was following at various points
along the lines by general suspension OF
work of all the knights employed in any
position by the railroads, until the number
reached between 5000 and 10000, and in.
claded shopmen. switchmen, trainmen,
brakemen, firemen. Another general Or
der is expected from the executive board
at Marshall, Texas, which it is anticipated
will call from their work all the knights
now left on the roads, and will still further
cripple them. In st. Louis all the Mis-
souri, Pacific's employees who are Knights
Of Labor are on strike, and number of
them who were not Knights have joined
the order and left their work. Business
inevery department of the Missouri Paci-
fic is at a complete standstill. There are
two hundred cars of perishablc freight in
the yards at Sedalia, Mo-, and several
hundred Car loads of California oranges
are side tracked between there and Fort
Worth. The operation of aboutI5, 900 miles
of railway is stopped by the strike, and
the traffic of four states, effecting
100000 people, temporarily suspe nded.
1000 men employed III the wagon and
carriage shops of Studebaker Brothers at
South Bend, Indiana, laid down their tools
and left the shops; an extensive strike of
coal miners in the Pennsylvania soft coal
regions, comprising 10000 men, was In
augurated; the spinners in the knitting
mills at Cohoes. New York, were ordered
out by the Knights of Labor, throwing
5000 operatives out OF employment; !;
5000 members of the United Order of
American Joiners and Amalgamated Soci-
ETY. of Carpenters and Joiners in New York
struck for an increase of wages. These,
together with numerous minor strikes
throughout the country, created the i'm
preston that preconcerted movement
on the part of the labor organizations,
backed by the Knights of Labor, to force
an issue with the manufacturers and rail-
roads had been lnaugurated. Grand Mas
ter Workman Powderly, the head of the
Knights of Labor organizations, however.
denies that there is any significance in the
fact that so many strikes are now in pro-
gress. He says it was coincidence, and
no concert ed action was contemplated by
the order, the strike being chiefly owing
to the fact that this is just the beginning
Of the spring trade and the opening of a
period of prosperity IN business. He did
not think that the increase in the number
OF strikes was owing to the knowledge of
all increased power by the organizations
of labor.

Boring for Coal.

We were informed last fall, says the
Benton Press, that the work of boring for
coal near the great falls would be resumed
this spring. It is the intention of the
company, which, by the way, is composed
of English capitalists, to bore until the
quality of coal such as they are in search
of is found. The work last summer de-
veloped the fact that good coal exists, the
operations bringing to light narrow seams
of excellent coal. The operations at that
point this summer will be looked forward
to with great deal of interest.

variety OF information when might, some
time OF other, lU.n up useful, but which at
present he could make little ont Of The
dinner itself was a Solemn affair, and com
men ing At eight, dragged on its weary
course until gu rtcr t. ten: and quarter
past that hour, when the gentlemen had
joined the ladies upstairs, the detective,
with cat-like tread, and the grayest Of grave
faces, was handing round the tea and COFFEE.
The company was divided into small
groups, and low muTmur of conversation
was carried on, with occasionally a smile
never a laugh Almost in the centre Of the
room, very upright with his mead little
thrown back, and the gaslight falling upon
his silvery hair and high polished forehead
stood FUrdyce, speaking slowly and Impress
lively, whilst some half-dOZen men around
him were listening with rapt attention and
respect Ii was some abstruse theory of ma
tiOnal morality he was expOunding and in
the name Of all that Christian men held
sacred, tins theory should be put into prac-
tice.
Tea or coffee, sir?' said soft voice at
his elbow, and the color came and went in
Sir Richard FOrdyce's face.
The ladies of the company were mostly
gathered together in one group round an
easy-chair-the easiest-indeed, almost the
only easy-chair worthy of the name that the
room contained, for it was furnished with
real, genuine Qneen Anne furniture-in
which Lady Fordyce was seated. The de-
tective's watchful eyes settled many times
upon the half-recumbent fl .ure of the mis-
treSs of the house.
Leaning back there with a queenly repose,
and an air OF gently suffering loneliness,
from which now and again at most faint
smile mi yht be wrung, she was in truth a
beautiful picture, her delicate face half hid
den in the soft shadow of the fan, clasped
by a iewelled hand, the stones of which gilt
tered in the gaslight.
Very little she said but the ladies around
her were talking mild nonsense about recent
fashionable tetCs, picture-galeries, new
books, and things they had read in the news
papers, to which she seemed TO listen Ian
guidIy, now and again putting in a word.
Mr.. Grtengraves, silently gliding to and
fro, had eyes for all this.
Presently a loud knock was heard at the
outer door, and few moments later mill

THE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING, y

THE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING."
That night Mr.. Charles could not help
noticing when he babe Miss Partridge good
night, that her manner was somewhat
strange, and next day, when the house was
turned tOpsy-turvy, and policemen takin 9
down everybody's evidence, he felt II his
duty to mention it, adding:
If I'd thought what dreadful things were
going to happen though, I'd ha'-Pd ha'- =
There, don't know what I'd ha' done"
But no one but Hester Partridge herself
could have had any idea of the dreadful
thing about to happen.
The detective, when he stood among the
trees upon the bank of the stagnant pond,
had pronounced the latter to be the very
place for suicide, or to hide body in; but
Hester Partridge's body did not remain long
hidden.
The page-boy, Edwards, going into the
shrubbery the first thing in the morning to
gather some rabbits meat" for favorite
Of his he kept in an Clubhouse, found scarf
she had worn lying upon the bank, and go
ing closer TO inspect, saw something float
ing upon the surface of the water, partly
covered with green chickweed, which
proved to be the unfortunate girls hat.
Edwards return with these articles led to
an immediate search. Hester's room was
found TO be empty, whilst the bed had not
been slept on. Half an hour later the pond
was dragged, and the lifeless body, with its
white rigid face, and with its clothing, soak
ed and sodden, clinging to the 1.-THE form,
