A General Con ference.

General Master Workman Powderly, OF the
Knights Of Labor, acting under the authority
vested in him by the general executive lizard,
has issued a call to the various assemblies Of
the order for a special session of the general as
sembly, to be held in Cleveland. Ohio, Tuesday,
May %. The causes leading to the calling Of
the session are given as follows:
First-The rapidly increasing membership Of
the order requires changes in the laws which
the general executive board have no authority to
make.
Second-The laws in relation to the govern
ment OF boycotting are wholly inadequate to
compel obedience on the part Of assemblies that
believe in boycOttlng for every ofense, whether
great or small.
Third-The laws in relation to strikes 10 not
give the general executive board power to inter
tere in such matters until after the strike has
been inaugurated.
F~Ourth-The order has become involved in diff
tculties with trade societies, and an effort is
being made to create a rupture between these
societies and the knights Of Labor.

Trade Affected by strikes.

Bradstreet's Journal ofSatarday the Sth
inst says: The general trade situation il
less favorable than a week ago. This is
due mainly to the partial paralysis OF busi-
ness at Chicago and elsewhere. AtChicago
no business Of a Wholesale character worth
mentioning has been done. Bradstreet's
telegraphic reports Indicate that 1926, 600
men have taken part in the short hour
movement; hat It's, 900 nave struck, and
that 100000 have received con-
cessions without having to strike.
Some $4,000 have gained their
ends by striking. The outlook for
an early or general clearing away OF indus
trial disturbances is not bright. The New
York stock market was extremely weak the
first two days OF the week, but a stronger
feeling developed and prices recovered. The
domestic markets are generally dull and
easy with loan rates unexchanged. The
exceptions are Kansas City and st. Paul,
where funds arc IN very active demand.
Collections are generally poor. The winter
wheat plant continues in excellent condi
fion. Spring wheat planting is nearly fin
ished and prospects for n crop are good.
The general movement Of dry goods has
been limited.

Montana stookmen and a stock Market

The Montana cattlemen who spent near
~ a week examining matters about ST.
Paul and Minneapolis, with a view of the
establishment OF n live stock market, re-
ported that somewhere Immediately con-
~tiguous to the cities of st, Paulaud Mime
apolis a live stock market is both entirely
feasible and practicable. An immense ter
ritory described could and undoubtedly
would be brought tributary to these cities
blythe establishment ofunion stock yards,
abattoirs, packing houses, etc, etc. 1t is a
significant fact and one worthy of notice by
the citizens OF these cities, that there is not,
north of Council Bluffs and Omaha, and
west OF Milwaukee, a single market where
a train load OF cattle can be sold. AS a
result CT this report the Montana Live
Stock company filed articles OF incorpora-
ton with the secretary OF state at st.
Paul. The nature Of the business is
to buy, hold, sell and deal in live
stock, and to hold such real estate,
and to buy and build such buildings and
other appliances as may be necessary or
convenient in connection Herewith. The
place OF business is st. Paul, and the capital
stock $3.50, 600. The incorporators are T..
III. Logan, Miles City, Mont; w. A. Tow
ers, Kansas City, Mo-; Thomas j. Bryan,
Miles City; Granville Stuart, Fort Maggin-
mis-, Mont; Adolph Heller, Milwaukee,;
Robert A. Smith, A. B. Stickney, w. r.

deke, George r. Finch, James i. Power,

The WILD WEST.


Theodore Roseyclt's Opinions ReIa-
tive to the Present and Future Of
the Domain of the Cowboy,
Chicago Tribune: Theodore Roosevelt,
of New York, is at the Grand Pacific, on
his way home after spending four
months on his ranch in western Dakota.
He is as brown as the cowboys he has
associated with. "I haven't been in
bed later than half-past three for six
weeks, and have SseE in business in
cowboy style" he said. 81 like the free,
western life, and if it were not for my
ties east l believe 1 should migrate per-
manently. 1 have just got through with
the spring round up, and do not know
how soon { shall return" Then, sIeak-
ing Of the season on the ranches. he
slated where they are wisely and hon.
estly managed they ara paying fairly
we'll, but no excessive profits. The
days Of excessive profits are over.
There are too many in the bust
ness. In certain sections OF the
west the losses this year are enormous,
owing to the drouth and oysrstocking.
Each steer needs from fifteen to twenty
five acres, but they are crowded on very
much thicker, and the cattlemen this
season have paid the penalty. Between
the droush. the grasshoppers, and the

ton of bribe giyers and takers. In this
case the state has attempted no further
investigation than is embodied in the
matter laid before the senate, either
through it's legislature or the courts. If
further examination by the state should
be made, the senate would be governed
IN ita further action by what might ap-
pear. Bnt as matters stand the report
holds that the investigation ihould not
be instituted by the senate.
Senators Hoar and Frye, in q separate
report, state that they canIot concur
with the views expressed by the other
members of the committee. They de-
scribe the eminent urce FROM
which the charges were brought
to the attention Of the senate and
say they think o case is presented in
which it is the duty OF the senate to per-
NIT the petitioners to present their evil
dence and to authorize the issue of the
proper process to aid i n procuring the
attendance OF Witnesses. TThe senate is
the only court which can have
jurisdiction on the question. The
courts OF Ohio may exer-
else jurisdiction OF the ofense
Of bribery, but could not decide whether
the result of the election was thereby
changed. For the senate to refuse to
listen to this complaint would be taken
as O declaration that it IS Indifferent to
the question whether its seats are to be
in the future the subject of bargain and
sale, or may be represented by q few
m%illionaires for u compliment to .

A NEBRASKA BANK PRESIDENT BEATS HIS
DEPosIToRs OUT OF A HUNDRED THoUs-
AND DOLLARS.
Chicago, July 15-An Omaha special
says the Dundy County bank, of Berkle-
man, Nebraska, failed yesterday. Belger,
the president, skipped to Canada and
took with him about 100000 in funds
and securities. The business men and
farmers feel the loss greatly, as many
lost the last dollar they had on earth.
Several homesteaders had their little all
in the bank and were to prove
mp to-day. Many will have to abandon
their claims. The greatest excitement
prevails. Belger transferred all his
available property to his wife before
leaving. Many eastern banks and
firms lost heavily.

TROUT, THE

Sioux City Journal, 10Th: The
capture Of Trout was the main subject of
discussion upon the streets yesterday.
The Journal containing the first positive
news of the capture was eagerly sought
after and the telegraphic columns were
read and re.read to each new com er.
Sheriff Mcdonald and Deputy Daven-
port took the early morning train for
the north and met Sheriff Foster and
Austin with the prisoner at Bridgewater,
where the party took dinner, and after
dinner returned to this city. AS the
train pulled into the depot it was met by
a crowd numbering not less that 800,
but Mcdonald had played one OF his
cute tricks by having a carriage in wait.
ing at the Sixth street crossing, where
the train slowed up and the prisoner
was brought into the city by the back
streets and up to the north entrance
of the courthouse. By
this time more than 1,50o persons had
gathered here and it. wal with some
difficulty that . passage was cleared
through the hall wide enough to admit
the prisoner, who was supported on one
side by Mcdonald end on the other by
Davenport, with Deputy Gambs in the
lead. The crowd rushed into the build
ing from all sides, but curiosity was
their only object, as no threats nor
demonstrations Of any kind were made
towards Trout, who looked pale and ex-
cited, and was trembling peTceptibly,
evidently not understanding the mean
ing OF the demonstration, and fearing
that an attempt at his life would be
made.

throughout that region, and there is not

What do you think OF the future OF
the western stock business? !"
I'm the course of time the business as
it is at preeent conducted has got to
cease. L regard the present system
merely % the beginning. In different
sections the business will take entirely
different shapes. Where the land is
fitted for agriculture the cowmen Will
become dispossessed in the natural
course of things by grangers. In the
bad lands grazing will continue, q IN
the course of time the great ranches will
break up, because small ranches
fenced in, with two or three hundred
cattle, can be managed more, economl-
cally. At present the b~randing-iron and
the cowboy are the fences. but they must
go. I believe that my section, including
the largest part of Montana and Wyom-
ing, and the western strip OF Dakota,
will bear the same relations to this ccun-
try that Hungary does to Europe
Throughout that region a granger can
not subsist except on irrigated lands
along the river, and to permit these
settlements will turn the entire country
away from the rivers into @ desert. But
the cry in the east against the cattle
kings is just as n~onsensical as the
western cry about the goldbugs. l can
only speak from what I have seen; but
where / am there is no fencing in OF
jumping the public domain. The COW.
men are simply pioneers who dare &c
into q wilder country and face create,
dangers from the Indians than any other
class. They pave the way of civilization
and in the region where / am located
there is no objection to settlers following
in their wake.
1.-THE great Sioux reservation ought tc
be opened up for settlement, CONTINUED
Mr.. Roosevelt. sit is all nonsense thai
the riches of that great tract should be
thus locked mp. The game is all killed

able citizens, you can get a plan who'll
