The o.. 8 n. Special for the Fourth

In regard to Fourth of July trains on the
Utah & Northern road, it seems that the
special to this paper yesterday from Poca-
tello was incorrect in certain particulars.
The recommendation for the special train
on the Fourth came from General Agent
Lewis, who yesterday received the follow
ing definite information on the subject
from Superintendent Ressigue: The special
leaves Spring Hill oD the morning Of the
Fourth at 5 q. M; Dillon $50 a. M; ar
irving at Butte at 9:26. Returning the
special will leave Butte on the evening OF
the Fourth at IL p. M, arriving at Dillon
on the morning OF the 9th at 1:45 q. m.
and reaching Spring Hill at 500 a. m.
These are official figures and can be reLed
upon by the dweliers along the line OF the
road between Butte and Spring Hill.

nntte,s High Finanelal PERTURBATION,

The bonds of the city OF Butte are highly
valued in the East apparently. When the
chairman of the Finance COMMITTEES found
that the bonds issued by the city are re-
quired by the statute to run not less than
five years, nor more than twenty, it was a
matter OF conjecture how Eastern bankers
would regard securities Of q mining camp
with such a term to run. But he was
shown two letters from well-known East
ern bankers to one OF the banking firms
Of this city, in which the writer's made IN.
ouiries concerning a proposed issue OF
bonds by the city of Butte, which had in.
cidentally come to their knowledge, and in
which they expressed great satisfaction
with tine prospect of the bonds running
twenty years, and ooly regretted that they
we're payable in five. The reputation OF
Butte ia the financial world is evidently
81 the most substantial for investment by
moneyed men.

The Celebrated Controversy Regarding

The Celebrated Controversy Regarding
Convent Property Before the Courts.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Aug. 20. Several new
and important developments in the con-
troyersy between Sister Marie Alphonse,
the deposed mother superioress of the
Ursuline academy, and her adherents, on
the one side, and Bishop Phelan, the head
of the Roman Catholic church of the
Pittsburg diocese, and the present board
of managers of the Ursuline academy, on
the other, came out in the hearing before
Judge Stowe. The hearing was on the
bill filed by plaintiff asking for an in
junction to restrain the defendants from
interfering with the conduct Of the
academy Sister Marie Alphonse de-
posed that she and the four sisters sus-
pended by Sister Gertrude were willing
to accept the $50, 900 decreed by the pope
in settlement of the case, but by misrep-
reservations to the holy father the
amount was reduced to $25, 700, and they
declined to accept it as compensation
for their interest in the school. At the
conclusion of the reading of the argu-
ments, Judge Stowe said that if the mat
ter stood as it did at the time the bill
was fled there. would be no doubt in his
mind as to the right of the Ursuline
sisters to be let alone. The only ques-
ti0n to be decided was the legality Of the
election held on August IA, at which
civil officers for the institution had been
chosen. The decision will be awaited
with interest.

WANT EQUAL RIGHTS.

Young Sioux Want to Have the Same
Show to Talk ON the Treaty That Older
Ones Have.
Grow CREEK AGENCY, OAK, Aug. 20.
The first grand council was called to
order at 3 o'clock p. M, and the roll
called to ascertain whether all were pres
ent or not. The Indians had previously
selected their spokesmen, all of whom
are chiefs, the orators being as follows:
Head Chief White Ghost, Chief Drifting
Goose, Chief Bull Ghost. The younger
and more intelligent element, however,
object to this arrangement and insist
that each one should be permitted to ex-
press his own wishes in the matter; that
the interest of one Indian on the
reservation is equal to another, and
that it would be impossible for
any one or half dozen men to express the
wishes of the entire tribe. The Indians
held big council on the prairie near the
agency, when speeches for and against
were delivered. Certain chiefs who are
opposed to the bill are attempting 70 in
timidate those favorable by threats of
violence, as at Standing Rock, but it
does not appear as though their bulldoz-
ing and intimidations will have the over
awing effect here that it had up the
river. Emeran White, full blooded
Indian from Standing Rock, has been
sent home by the agent here for actively
influencing Indians here against the bill.

n NEW YORK, Aug. 29.,--During the pro-

Indeed, Of the sixty persons occupying,

presided, was about to address the gath
ering when the structure fell. He es-
eaped without injury, but Alderman
Benjamin, who was to deliver speech,
was one Of the most seriously injured.
Charles Landsman, who built the plat
form, was arrested on criminal charge
