the recent contract between the company
and the Northern Pacific and Union Pa.

The Sulllvan-Mitche Fight.

The contest between John L. Sullivan,
champion heavy weight pugilist, and
Charley Mitchell, of England, took
place at Criel, France, thirty miles
south of Paris, on Saturday last. The
outcome of the battle was surprise to a
large majority of people, thirty mine
rounds having been fought, in which the
Boston boy not only failed to knock out
his antagonist, but at the close consented
to have the fight declared draw. 1t is
evident that Sullivan failed to recognize
the advantage twenty -four foot ring gave
the Englishman in resorting to strategic
movements, which he availed himself OF
by repeatedly falling to avoid punish
ment. It is also demonstrated that Sulli-
van is not so invincible as in former
times, when it was conceded that one
blow from his terrible right hand was
sufficient to knock out any man who at
tempted to stand before him. The dis
patches indicate that he not only got one
but number of blows upon the English
man, with no more telling effect than a
simple knock down. While Americans
generally took pride in their champion,
there are not few who, though they
would prefer to see the title wrested from
him by one Of their own countrymen, will
fail to regret that he has at last found his
match.

The house committee on public lands
decided by a party vote to formu-
late a general bill providing for a
forfeiture of all unearned land grants.
The republican members Offered two
distinct bills, the first to declare q for
feiture outright of that portion of the
land grant over which the road was
not built within the specified time by
the granting act, and the second to de-
clare a forfeiture of the remainder of
the land grant or part over which the
road was completed during thespecified
time This plan they thought would
insure the passage by the senate of the
bill of the first class at least, without
the jeoparding of any and all forfeiture
bills. .s6..s

| A Winnipeg dispatch states that til
halfbreeds at Batouche, in the CANADIAN

with Gabriel Dumont, who is now il
New York. In recent letter he is un
derstood to have advised them to secure
food by pillage rather than to submit II
slow starvation. His people had half {

burn and eat it. Chief Alexis said that
rations had been issued but three times

November 1st. He then received half a
sack of -four for his family of thirteen
After New Years he got another half a

they got five pounds of flour apiece.

u Choteau Calumet: An able attorney
has been secured to prosecute claims for
damages against the government for horses
stolen by Crow Indians from settlers in
this valley in May and September, 1884.
Over one hundred head were taken and
all efforts to recover any of them have
been unavlling, although they were traced
to the Grow reservation and number of
them were seen at the Crow agency. j.

Northern Pacific express company, and
D. j. Farlin, auditor of the Northern
Pacific company, spent several days at
Townsend and Tostcn last week, trying to
effect settlement with J. A. florence,
agent for the company at Toston, who, it
appears was unable to account for all the
company's funds in his department. War
rants for the arrest of Torrcnce were issued
from the justice court Saturday last and
Deputy Sheriff Flick Mccormick arrested
him, and at last accounts he was endeav-
oring to give bond of $500 for his ap-

but we are informed by correspondent
at Missoula that the addition that was
ready for distribution last Friday was
suppressed in consequence of discovery
that it contained some uncomplimentary
references to Captain G. P. Higgins and
A. B. Hammond, whom the editor pro
tenn. made some caustic remarks about by
way of getting even with them for a
grudge he is said to have had against
them. The paper that came to hand is
entirely free from any references to either
of the individuals mentioned, but our cor
respondent informed us that the few
copies OF the Missoulian that were not
destroyed, containing the highly favored
comments referred to, are IN demand at
$40 apiece.

THE FLOUR TRUST

The object of this trust is admitted
to be to keep down the price of wheat
and to keep up the price of flour. The
great mills of the country, as we have
heretofore pointed out, have been
selling flour in Great Britain cheaper
than in the United States. The pur-
pose of shipment is to keep up prices
in the home market by getting rid of
the surplus product. The millers as
sert that. they are compelled to this
course in order to mill at a profit; it
would be better for them to sell, for
example, every third barrel abroad at,
say SO cents less than the home rates
if thereby they may charge SO cents
apiece for the other two barrels. They
also charge that grain gambling forces
them to it. Naturally the millers re-
sort to the over-shadowing trust sys-
tenn in order to protect their industry.
How it is with them just at present,
may be gathered from the circum-
stance as stated by Miller Cole, of this
city. He says: off -four made out of
grain bought on to-day's saturdays
market was shipped to England it
would cause a loss to the miller of
from 40 to SO cents a barrel" He
adds: "The idea is this, that if we
pay fictitious prices for wheat, we
must have a fictitious price for -four"
This is, in a nutshell, why the trust is
necessary for the millers. By the
trust they will be able to get their
own terms and sell their -four to the
public also on their own terms. Now,
what do the farmers and the consum-
ers respectfully think of such a pros
pect of this? 1t is simply a proposal
to buy wheat and sell -four in the
United States at purely fictitious
prices.-Ch Chicago Nevs.
